Its at least 5% harder to breathe with the mask on and if I wear it wrong it fogs my glasses.

Rather die than fog my glasses ok.


Trust me, it's harder to breathe with fluid in your lungs from pneumonia from Covid than from wearing a mask. Wearing a mask doesn't give any political points to anyone - it is recommended by healthcare professionals that have probably studied for a 1/3 of their life to give you advise on how to live longer and healthier.

More testing, construction of sites to discharge recovering covid+ patients when they are sub-acute but shouldn't go back to a nursing home, production of adequate personal protective gear to keep providers safe, not undermining efforts to keep the spread down by leading an anti-mask/medicine movement of anti-intellectuals at least.


I agree those would have been good options to implement, but I don't think this would have prevented a recession. With these changes, lockdowns still would have happened and decisions made by various state leaders would have continued the spread or enforced longer lockdowns due to fear (i.e. Cuomo/Newsome/etc).

yes but

do nothing + recession = get criticism bigly

do something + recession = get less and a lot of "well he tried"

all we're left with is he did nothing but tweet at governors.

TL;DR =

1. there was a typo on one new site that drove a "biden gets 100% of votes in overnight dump in Michigan" conspiracy

2. Wisconsin has several counties with "irregularities" (trying to justify Trump's call for a recount), but the author doesnt even try to put numbers on the page or suggest what those irregularities even are.

3. PA is following the law that was set down pre-election about how they handle mail in ballots with or without a postmark, received before or on election day.


big fucking pile of nothing with the glue being generalized anti-media and anti-democrat throw-away phrases.


This pile of nothing is going to drive the legal challenges in part.

Likely cause a court ordered recount in WI/MI and maybe PA.

Shortly after the appeal announced in Wisconsin, it was in Michigan that the Trump camp took legal action to suspend the count, citing difficulties in access to certain polling stations by Republican observers.

ROFL they are the first to remove polls for vote suppression. Insane & pathetic :lol:

WEARING A MASKS DOES NOT PROTECT YOU.

We have to wear goggles with them at work and you're right, it makes it difficult.

But that and ear chafing are the worse things they do.

They also seem to trigger personality disorders a lot.
