It's doubtful that this is the end of Twitter. It's much more likely that they'll be taken down by some script-kiddie exploiting an unpatched server in 2 weeks or so.
We are definitely engaging in some Covid theater. But the research is definitely in favor of better masks.
Poor folks are WAY more likely to have multigenerational home situations. They are then more likely to have grandkids getting their grandparents exposed.
Look, I am not overly nuts about masking and all things Covid. But "we have to protect the vulnerable" is a completely bullshit "strategy". We need to be smart and careful.
I'm watching @billmaher and he seems to have decided that he is only going to have guests that agree with his Covid view. Maybe he's afraid of having someone that challenges his view. Sad.
It’s a bummer that Canada and the US have extended the border closure for another month. I'll have to plan my vacation for some domestic location this summer.
@opadit The plan this time is TOR, Ottawa, MON and QC. Mrs geek and I will definitely make a pilgrimage to the way-up-North in the next 2-3 years. Maybe some Berg watching.
And real people are way better than FB people.
.@opadit how's things looking north of the border? We are thinking about a trip to ON and QC in the summer if everything opens up to the vaxxed. Good idea or nah?
SD5 was one of the last R held seats in New Castle County. @KyleEvansGay unseated the Republican incumbent who held the seat for 20+ years. This district’s D advantage has more than doubled since 2016, but the R incumbent was one of the few Rs who was able to hold on (until Nov.)
More than 1,400 Americans perished from #COVID19 today; approx 155,000 new cases. President Trump hasn’t said a word - no briefings, nothing. His focus appears to be on spreading lies about the election; he still cannot admit he lost
@CourtyardBrew @Beer_Notes You guys are the best. I've been heartened by your actions in the past year. Can't wait to get back to NOLA and get some of your beer and check out the new digs.
I don’t want to be preachy, but after this commutation of Stone and the fact that it has taken 135,000 dead for this idiot to wear a mask for a few minutes, what are you planning to do? Find a place to volunteer to get Democrats elected. Beat every Republican.
