So the plan is just complete misinformation because they know none of their mouth-breathing supporters will do a second of research to see every single one of their lawsuits is getting thrown out? Sounds right.

 

you can just write anything on the internet

 

So, NYC schools are probably going remote.

interesting how just a few weeks ago the Times was saying how this is a major step in NYC’s recovery!

 

My brother's school district announced yesterday that they're going to all-remote following Thanksgiving break (so in 2 weeks) JUST DO IT NOW YOU DUMB FUCKS

 

The real fraud is "election fraud."

Apologies if this has been shared already, but this does a really great job at summarizing all the voter fraud allegations and debunking them one by one. It's from the guy who was doing that giant 100+ tweet thread about all the allegations. Gonna try and share it with everyone I see sharing stuff about fraud, I'm not optimistic it'll help them at this point, but it still seems like a good resource to have in your pocket.

Also if this guy is a hack or something please let me know, I'm not super familiar with him/all his work

 

The substack cinematic universe is turning out to be a big disappointment.

 

When the hell did Vox become the woke left publication? That makes zero sense.

 

they love to lose

 

lol.

What a massive, massive loser.

 

Back to normal!

 

The scary thing about all this shutdown talk to me right now is knowing that we’ve got the Trump administration for a couple more months (not even factoring in what things could look like once Biden takes over).

Which means, with things at the worst they’ve been & trending even worse, going into Thanksgiving, Christmas, & New Years... the most realistic options are do nothing meaningful, or institute some more lockdowns without any meaningful financial support. Both of which will be very bad for poor/vulnerable people.

Like, what actually probable good scenario am I supposed to be rooting for over the next month or so?

 

Personal responsibility

 

lol right? Matt just wants to tweet (and write) his takes without getting pestered by Ezra for the bad publicity some of it brings

 

Yeah I definitely think realist when I think of Trump

 

Geraldo, you literally told him to accept the results lol. I hope you told him that on the phone.

 

Trump's favorite song.

 

One, I said “realistic.”

Two, speaking anecdotally, while a ton of the people I know who react negatively to the idea of shutdowns are selfish and/or conspiracy-minded, I’m honestly getting really sick of this kinda simplistic response, as if there aren’t a ton of people who would be more open to lockdown if it came with financial support & actual concrete plans for combatting the virus. I don’t think people realize how much it sounds like the student debt post we were all dunking on yesterday. Like, I’m taking a financial hit right now that’s really hard to spare by taking the “personal responsibility” staying home until I get my test results.

 

Oh boy, wonder how this will go

 

"we'll have the most beautiful vaccine any day now for the virus that doesn't exist"

 

How many minutes actually spent on vaccine talk versus how the election was stolen?

 

Possible that he wants to control narrative that he is responsible for vaccine and wants to make sure people don't Biden any credit

 

Just heard from my manager that we're entering the "Orange Zone" in Western NY (Buffalo area) with a positivity rolling 7 day average of 6.9%. Schools and non-essential business will be closed by the Governor as soon as Monday.

So my serving job is once again being lost as restaurants are forced to go to takeout only. With no extra cash I'm not sure I'll be able to survive on the $375/week from unemployment. This is really fucking scary.

 

He is going to focus on how it was so nasty of Pfizer to release this info after the election. After all the nice things he did for them, he's been treated so unfairly, yada yada, blah blah, fraud, I didn't lose, meh
