Alex "There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge." -- Isaac Asimov

Scuttlebutt from the medical gossip line I'm hearing is that due to the widespread prevalence of COVID-19 in the community, and people's idiotic Christmas and New Year's shenanigans, we're likely to see skyrocketing death rates in the first few months that beat our total death rate for 2020 - and that's just COVID-19 deaths, not including the knock-on effect of having no room in hospitals for, well, anything else. The numbers I'm hearing are anywhere from topping prior COVID deaths to up to a million dead from COVID-19 this year before we're able to bring things back under control with the vaccine. Edit: And Trump still has 18 days to screw things up. Start a war with Iran, lob a nuke at somebody, etc. Ceterum autem censeo pars Republican esse delendam.

The doctor said he'd normally send him to the hospital for this but not right now because he'll get covid. He was dead by the morning. Had some type of intestinal problem that exploded. I'm sure there's many more stories just like this. Let me expand on this. He was a gentle soul. He was the second husband who treated her right. He was an old guy with a man bun. And he's dead for no reason. Edited by crazy Jan. 2, 2021, 11:58:50 AM EST Expand All History
