ignorance and paranoia about radioactivity go hand in hand.
i know so many otherwise smart people who lose it on this issue. because they just think any radioactivity = destroy planet forever . completely ignorant to how it actually works, and just think every power plant must eventually chernobyl and that one barrel of nuclear waste is enough to destroy 1000s of miles or something equally absurd.
totally sad.
The GOP hasn’t had a positive agenda for 20 years.
People on the board are shit at their jobs because most boards are full of people who don’t ever work at the company. They exterior consultants for the most part. Every business I have worked for, the board was a bunch of wealthy folks who showed up like 1-2x a year for the board meetings, but otherwise had zero idea what anyone did or who anyone was other than the C-suite.
Boston. Indies open at 8am and close at 2pm. Starbucks is open like 6am-9pm. If I want a coffee at 3pm I am stuck with Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts. Indies can’t afford to be open an extra 7 hours where they are doing very little business.
i wish more places served moka, but they don’t.
I don’t understand why people like Starbucks so much. Their coffee is nasty and so is their food. But people are addicted to it. All my relatives have the app and spend like $50+ a week there.
Only reason I ever go is because I’m roadtripping at 6am and it’s the only place open that early. The indie coffee shops don’t open until 8am.
yeah, cats bury their shit. they don’t shit on grass and leave it exposed.
only time cats shit in the open is to prove a point. OP probably pissed off this cat
their base loves it. that is all that matters
it’s not about science. it’s about public perception. masks didn’t stop covid. vaccines did.
people will not wear masks again. they would probably get another vaccine though.
ending covid = getting rid of mask mandates, in the publics viewpoint.
you realize that civil suits take years and a lot of money? not all of us have 50K in the bank to hire a lawyer for 2-4 years so we can get the payout.
The govt telling anyone to do anything is authoritarian.
The issue is if you agree with what the govt is telling you, or not. It’s only authoritarian when you disagree.
Politically it will be suicide for the democrats.
People do not want to be told what to do. They do not want to be inconvenienced.
Personally I hated wearing a mask. it was a huge pain in my ass, and mostly unnecessary most of the time except on public transit or in like a very crowded place like a grocery store.
I don’t wear a mask anymore, but people glare at people that do. I also got a lot of harassing comments when I was wearing a mask last year.
because wearing a mask is for pussies.
it’s really as simple as that. it’s seen as weak and pathetic and makes you an object of ridicule.
because wearing masks did shit. that’s why.
vaccines did.
this is why universities have endowments. and why they become convulted messes.
of course, they don’t use them like they should, but that’s another issue entirely.
sadly people are greedy and short sighted, no matter the institution. often the committees want to reward themselves above all else.
Tildes has a single admin who bans anyone they mildly disagree with.
yeah when he became president again 6 years ago.
china is causing a fuss for political gain. a huge chunk of their fishing practices are illegal and violates international law anyway. their concern is theatrics to drum up their anti-japanese nationalism.
