Anybody want a Corona?

[washing machine]

So, Republicans in the TN House have proposed a bill that will take state funding away from any school system within the state that issues a mask mandate.

I hate this goddamn state so fucking much.

the Pink Palace in Memphis is pretty cool. And Centennial Park in Nashville.

I could go for a fried bologna on toast at hermitage cafe right now.

Yeah but at home I can't get it on a late winter Nashville morning served with a second cup of black, hungover coffee and a side of eavesdropped local lore.

You can stay at my house next time. I’ll make it for you.

I believe that proper response is “fuck off, c**ts. Go back to blowing Pooh bear”

Any chance SCOTUS will smack back the CDC, or naw?

I would be stunned if they disrupt Jacobson v. Massachusetts. I could see them doing some damage to the latest iteration of the eviction moratorium, though.

Masks being mandated in Illinois schools to begin the year.

[E.H. Ruddock]

Not sure about statewide, but all the counties around here are requiring masks for school

[spike]

K thru 12 I should add.

I know some districts in WI are mandating K thru 6, then only recommending 7-12 (since those ages are vaccine eligible).

The ideology is what matters, not the lives.

[Stickman]

Handy little diagram to share with the anti maskers in your circle.

I am pretty solidly in camp C1. Only quibbles that I would have is that I am much more forcefully onboard with vaccine mandates, and you can pretty much fuck my own feelings when it comes to my criticism of NPIs.

[Peeps]

i am B going into A

people say the young whippersnappers couldnt handle living way back when as life was too hard and all that is currently being asked is to wear a mask on your face to prevent a pandemic and you cant even do that. yet you complain that this new generation are a bunch of babies. then they fall back on the hipaa and say you cant ask me anything about my vaccination status and thats not what hipaa is about. then they throw out the my body my choice which is fine until you ask them about their stance on abortion.

if kids can play highschool basketball wearing a mask you can muster up the effort to have worn one to help prevent this but you were too big a toddler crying all the time

Masks don't work

Masks don't work

Masks work, but the problem is that in the most high risk situations, they're either not practical (indoor restaurants, bars, theaters, and other events where eating & drinking is required to be sustainable) or enforceable (private indoor gatherings). So instead the beatings for vaccinated people are continuing until morale improves among the unvaccinated in venues with low to moderate risk. At least we've finally (I think) learned enough about the bigtime importance of ventilation to stop harassing people with NPIs outdoors.

Awww yissss.

30 days over like it was yesterday.

"With the government’s poor handling of the virus and the ongoing unrest escalating in European cities, the German newspaper BILD issued its apology for harming society over its coverage of the covid-19 pandemic in the past 18 months."

“To the millions of children in this country,
for whom our society is responsible,
I want to express here what neither our government
nor our Chancellor dares to tell you.
We ask you to forgive us.
Forgive us for this policy
Which, for a year and a half, has made you
victims of violence,
neglect, isolation and loneliness.
Sorry for this policy and media coverage
which, like poison, made you feel
like you were a mortal danger to society.
You are not a danger to society, don’t believe this lie.
It’s up to us to protect you.
What happened to our children, many people and Bild denounced it.
Nothing happened.
Merkel organized a summit for children? No !
Instead, we persuaded our children
that they were going to murder their grandma
if they dared to be what they are, children.
Or if they met their friends.
None of this has been scientifically proven.
It was easy to force that on the kids,
they can’t defend themselves and they don’t vote.
When a state steals the rights of a child,
it must prove that by doing so it protects him against concrete and imminent danger.
This proof has never been provided.
It has been replaced by propaganda
presenting the child as a vector of the pandemic.
Those who wanted to contradict this propaganda
were never invited to the expert table.
Our policies would do better to open schools
and sports halls rather than polling stations!
Otherwise they will have on their conscience, and will leave in the history books,
a multitude of innocent souls.
