...many people are saying...
I mean, the rest of the world at least.
Not much more than a peep here. What does that say about the kind of country we're living in? 🤔

$880 million is the whole federal Medicaid budget! No 'at least' to it

Wait! Scottsdale? Ooo... that might involve rich people. We should probably beef up air traffic control there, right?

But let's fire air traffic controllers, and lower their wages, so the billionaires can have more tax cuts! Woo! Woo!

Not a professional opinion, but I'd guess she's had dermabrasion in the past, probably for acne scars

Yeah, there's a lot that needs to change at WHO, but stopping all communication and cooperation helps no one. And it won't bring reform either.

Technically, not an oil.
But it is a colorless liquid with a pleasant, non-irritating smell and a slightly sweet taste.

Idk. I mean, being a white supremacist and fascist may be Elmo's most authentic and productive self... 😒

Flying a flag upside down can be a signal of distress... although I don't understand how that would fit in here.

I'm not feeling the terror...

I get your point, but I think 'assassinate' implies murder for political or professional or symbolic reasons (without regard to income or wealth) by someone who doesn't personally know the victim. JFK, Lennon and an abortion doc all were assassinated by strangers.

Not a member of Congress. He's a Michigan state Representative.
But yes, racist, homophobic, and COMPLETELY despicable...

Great list. Followed all.
(Southpaw is a great follow, but he is a he, if you're truly going for all female.)

Senator Graham: Sorry to make this personal, but by the same logic, shouldn't we be means-testing your military retirement and congressional pensions?
Social security is a retirement pension for the rest of us. We don't triple dip, as you do.

Hmm..
I suspect X and Threads are also losing steam as the election recedes, and we now gird our loins, to survive Thanksgiving with relatives

Squirm. Definitely, the squirming.
They will contort themselves into knots to justify voting for a man who will cause their own suffering.
'You bought it, you own it.' Don't look to me for sympathy until you admit your error.

Yep. Pretty much every organ.
SARS-CoV-2 was a vascular disease from the get-go. Even in the lung, it's the vessel endothelial cells that are most affected...
Labeling it a respiratory virus was a mistake we're still trying to recover from.

I followed you on the other space which shall not be named...
You're a good fighter. A much better advocate than me. I'm stubborn in my personal beliefs (aerosols, masks, and more) but I tend to hold back. Until I'm too enraged to express myself coherently

Speaking of institutions earlier: I was a physics major before medical school
An attending said colds come from hand transfer of mucus, or via fomites. I objected, saying you can SEE sneezes!
Shot down, embarrassed, didn't mention it again.
Never stopped believing what I saw, but I complied..

It's the nature of institutions.
The people at the top have all fallen in line, at some level, or they wouldn't be at the top; so they will now fall in line for the next leader. It's their nature.
And if few won't, or don't? Well, someone else will be happy to step in.

Willingness to be able to get a position with any admin is exactly why no reputable institutions spoke against health disinfo conference held by Stanford & welcomed by their President. Because everybody is calculating what they can get with one admin or the other.
