What a thread

Evergiven was that long ago? That can’t be right

 

I don't even have Twitter and I recognize 95% of those.

...I blame this thread

 

YES.

 

lmao

 

im ready, fuck me up

 

my “hiring 24 theologians to assess how people will handle hearing news of alien life” has people asking lots of questions already answered by my hiring 24 theologians to assess how people will handle hearing news of alien life.

 

We all knew 2021 was gonna suck when it started with bean dad

 

I apologize if this has already been posted but fucking lol at Chuck Todd’s mask just slipping right off there.

 

Dig deeper and the numbers do continue to be quite optimistic though. Obviously we don't want to have 1500 deaths per day but it does feel like Omicron is milder and once we get past this wave things should be much better.

Cases:

Dec 13 Average: 120,000
Dec 26 Average: 204,000

Deaths:

Dec 13 Average: 1,271
Dec 26 Average: 1,436

Hospitalizations:

Israeli hospital begins world’s first study on efficacy of 4th COVID vaccine dose

 

Or we could just, you know, work on getting just one dose into the arms of those in poorer countries. Just a thought.

 

customer came in to work saying "well the coldest new years in ohio's history was 2 years ago, so that means climate change isn't as bad as they say it is." i deserve a raise for keeping my mouth shut on that one. the shit that comes out of the mouth of well-to-do white people is astounding.

 

My friend that my girlfriend hung out with on Friday that tested positive, well his roommate also tested positive today so even though we didn’t do anything or go anywhere over the weekend we’re definitely isolating and getting tested tomorrow. had to cancel my TMS appointment today and likely all week depending on results plus won’t be able to go to my outpatient rehab programs all week so….hopefully it’s not too bad if I did wind up catching it. my gf doesn’t seem sick at all so that’s promising but they did smoke two blunts together so I don’t see how she didn’t catch it

 

Truly idiotic

 

A pandemic is the exact kind of thing that requires a federal solution

 

His old boss had a whole federal apparatus set up for just this exact scenario! That Trump subsequently dismantled it doesn't mean he can't put it back together!
