If Covid is just a cold, no big deal, then why does the CDC keep quietly moving the benchmarks to downplay the numbers? Why bother concealing a non-issue? Or maybe the virus is causing lots of serious health problems and they don't want you connecting the dots.

The funny part is if furries were actually running the show, flying the planes and such, service would be considerably better all around and a lot more fun. Why is a politician thinking so much about a niche crowd like furries?
Dear corporations, If I need to call your business, no automated system can resolve the reason for the call. Basic information is readily available elsewhere. I do not trust an automated system to provide accurate information. I do not want an automated system to have my information. Pay humans.
Oh look! Yet more blurry images that prove exactly nothing. The moment a record is altered in any way, it no longer serves as proof. Digitizing records allows for manipulation. Was anyone actually expecting something real? It's just another con.
If you find yourself interrogating a person for trying to use a public toilet, you are the creep assaulting people in restrooms.
The fact they used a transport chair says everything. Why not a power chair or scooter? Why not let him move around independently? It's not out of his budget. We have the technology.
Famous people only show you what they want you to see. Most of them pay professionals to give them the perfect public image and total privacy. It's no shock when they choose to avoid making political stands or choose the money deal. You never really know the real person until something leaks.
If rich people cared about danger, we would have a safe food supply free of harmful chemicals, clean water, eco-friendly industries for everything, a prosperous economy for everyone, sensible regulations, and universal healthcare. Just for starters.
Dear rich people, Sci-fi movies are warnings, not business models. Surviving whatever disaster trapped in a bunker won't be like the movies. Will the people you need to survive even reach your bunker? Doctors? Plumbers? Farmers? Mechanics? It's a long list. And they all need the same supplies.
The more one understands about how computers work, the more they tend to use things like mechanical locks. Any software can eventually be hacked, bypassed, reverse engineered, or otherwise manipulated. Think about that. Take all the time you need.
So many luxury class items nowadays are actually low quality, highly overpriced, offer no real advantage, and wind up in sore need of replacing after a very short time. At some point it becomes much more costly to not replace the item.
Telling caregivers to avoid becoming friends with the person they care for is contributing to isolating the person from society. This is yet another way Ugly laws were rebranded instead of actually going away. Ugly laws are now hidden in lines of policy, often disguised as help. It's cruel.
Funny how so many things can only be accomplished after an election. Why not now? Why not months ago? Funny how this happens every election. How does one prepare promises for dinner? Fried? Baked?
Unpopular opinion: Of all things, how did the wearing pants below the ass fashion survive this long? We didn't want to see your boxers then and we still don't.
Old fashioned textbooks, chalkboards, pencils, and paper are not affected by cyber attacks. I miss when an IT issue didn't force an entire school to close.
Who exactly is going to hire someone over the retirement age, and to do what? As jobs disappear. As even applying for a job is a full time challenge. What happens if grandma can't find employment? We deserve to retire before the expected average life span and not be locked away in institutions.
Adding call centers to medical offices only adds a frustrating and invasive obstacle to healthcare. The call centers do not have access to necessary information and just put the patient on hold while they call the office to ask. These call centers gain access to patient info they don't need.
Overspecialization in healthcare has resulted in folks with complex medical conditions often need to figure out their own diagnosis, then convince primary doctors it's not imagined, and then find that one specialist that treats the condition to confirm the diagnosis. We're doing this backwards.
If you are unable to handle the issues that come with the hospitality industry, just like operating a hotel/motel, AirBnB may not be the best choice for you. Businesses have risks. Research before you invest. Bill the guest, write that shit off, stock extra everything, and move on with your day.
We were making bbq chicken for dinner. My hunny totally cooked up a few bites of plain chicken first for the cat LMAO!
Funny how rich people always have to find money to do anything that benefits anyone else, while poor people are expected to cough up cash to benefit the rich hoping the rich will do things that benefit others.
People tell lies every day, omit, deceive, sometimes just because it's the accepted response. I'm fine Many folks find truth uncomfortable enough to actively avoid it and anyone that speaks it. We trained AI to be like us. Now AI is capable of deception. What did you expect?
I will never understand or accept how anyone can justify food and healthcare being taken away from the most vulnerable and innocent members of our society, especially children. It's inhumane to do that to a prisoner. If they will do that to even one child, what won't they do? Eating is not optional.
How many ranches have industrial meat processing equipment at all? How many local butchers could actually handle the load from an industrial cattle ranch? Never mind distribute it. Who exactly gains what here?
It's truly astounding how many folks fail to understand that any medical condition bad enough to qualify a person for disability benefits tends to be painful, exhausting, and require constant medical care. It's not a Disney vacation.
I've been saying for decades that if the rich had their way we'd all be wearing grey and brown rags. Forcing that on us would not go over well. Frogs in a pot. Now look around. What colors are everywhere now? Look at the quality of the affordable clothing being sold. It's no coincidence.
A school district has closed campuses due to yet another surge of Covid cases. Meanwhile our public health leaders quietly moved the goal posts on what is considered high levels of cases again. Do keep believing Covid is over, no big deal, because we always go to extremes to hide nothing important.
People should never be expected to prove their allergies by being exposed to an allergen so a physician can document the reaction. This is asking the patient to risk their life, or other permanent consequences, just to have a life saving medication approved, because rich executives want more $$$.
