COVID-19: Chapter 10 - Mission Achomlished!

I got a weird call this morning.

“Hi this is so and so with the CDC VSafe program. I’m just calling to confirm that you had a reaction to your second Moderna vaccine and required medical attention from a doctor.”

I definitely did not require medical attention. I did do lots of the VSafe surveys and recorded my symptoms (fever, fatigue, chills, etc). The call sounded both legitimate and scammy FoxNews propaganda poll-ish at the same time. Was just odd.

Dems don’t have it in them to nominate and confirm someone rated as “not qualified”.

Feature not bug.

Is it a feature that the average age of Dem nominees in this era will be significantly higher than the average age of GOP nominees?

Guess no masks anywhere anymore in the Czech Republic.

Went on public transport before Easter and everybody was masked. Come back to it and no masks.

And yeah, case numbers still dropping. Haven’t been this few people in the hospital with COVID in the past 6 months.

It’s a feature because Dems care about competency.

The long assumed link between age/experience and competency is kind of overrated. A lot of experienced people are morons.

Grunching a bit here but waiving the fucking re-entry testing requirement for vaxxed/boosted folks might (gasp) encourage people to do it. Too bad it’s socialism.

You continue to ignore the age gap and how it impacts the makeup of the court. What say you?

I say competency is more important.

Guys, just think how lucky we are to have such and experienced, competent 79 year old Joe Biden running the show, and not some woefully inexperienced 32 year old like AOC. We wouldn’t be getting all these Huge Achomplishments!

Do you think the 30-something GOP nominees are competent? Cause your strategy over time leads to more and more of them and fewer and fewer Dem nominees.

Played out over centuries it would probably lead to 100% and 0%.

What a tool

Note he doesn’t mention what his specific medical condition is. I’d say idiocy.

Waiting for my flight at Denver airport. Our flight crew just went on the PA and said, “Delta passengers we have a very important announcement”. I thought oh shit.

Then they said as of right now, you don’t have to wear masks in the boarding area (I didn’t catch if that applies to the plane or not). Then they all went woo hoo and ripped off their masks and took a group selfie w/o masks.

This is the rare silver lining of @Riverman Syndrome, when he rants and rages and says something like GODDAMN IT ALL TO HELL WE’RE GOING TO BE WEARING THESE MASKS ON PLANES FOREVER and then, across the world, like the result of a flap from a butterfly’s wings, @suzzer99 sees people ripping off their Tyranny Masks and wonders what the hell is going on.

Confirmed masks not required on plane. Mask usage about 50%.

I got my second booster a week ago. Not gonna lie, it feels pretty damn good not to be breathing my stinky hot breath and fogging up my reading glasses.

Is this because of the Trump judge?

Yup, it’s the Trump judge.

I’m flying to Mexico City Wednesday on Delta, looking forward to at least being able to relax and eat food without putting the mask back on each bite.

I wonder how long it will take Aeromexico to drop the requirement. I’m thinking at least 6 months.

Yep. Several US airlines have already announced masks are optional. More will probably follow soon.

“Following the ruling of a U.S. district court judge on Monday, April 18, the Biden Administration announced that the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) will no longer enforce the federal mandate requiring masks in all U.S. airports and on board aircraft. Effective immediately, masks are optional for all airport employees, crew members and customers inside U.S. airports and on board aircraft, as well as on most international flights.”

“Given the unexpected nature of this announcement, please be aware that customers, airline employees and federal agency employees – such as TSA – may be receiving this information at different times. You may experience inconsistent enforcement during the next 24 hours as this news is more broadly communicated – remember to show understanding and patience with others who may not be aware enforcement is no longer required. Communications to customers and in-airport signage and announcements will be updated to share that masking is now optional – this may take a short period of time.”

Fucking…

Uggggghhhhh

Alright everyone, no masks! Now everybody gather around the Maypole and get to lickin!
