I really hope the worst of the Republican sheeple won’t participate in any future elections now that it’s been established that the fix is in ;)

re: #172 Barefoot Grin

Over the last four years we’ve been using the word combo “we now know” so much that I often forget the spelling of now and know and use them interchangeably.

What about “no?” That covers both. /s

Biden hires all-female senior communications team, names Neera Tanden director of OMB

Biden is expected to nominate Neera Tanden, the chief executive of the left-leaning Center for American Progress, as director of the influential Office of Management and Budget, according to people familiar with the matter who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss the nominations freely. Tanden, whose parents immigrated from India, would be the first woman of color to oversee the agency.

In addition, Biden is set to appoint Princeton University labor economist Cecilia Rouse as chair of the three-member Council of Economic Advisers, with economists Jared Bernstein and Heather Boushey serving as the other members. Rouse, who is African American, would be the first woman of color to chair the council, which will play a key role in advising the president on the economy, which has been ailing since the pandemic struck the country, throwing tens of millions out of work

Jennifer Psaki, a veteran Democratic spokeswoman, will be Biden’s White House press secretary, one of seven women who will fill the upper ranks of his administration’s communications staff. It is the first time that all of the top aides tasked with speaking on behalf of an administration and shaping its message will be female.
Biden’s press team will be led by Kate Bedingfield, a longtime Biden aide who served as his campaign communications director and will hold the same title in his White House.

Yeah that’s what the past four years have felt to me too. A really bad reality show and a distortion of what the Presidency is. Trump always says a lot about his incompetence and ignorance of the issues and what’s going on when he talks. I wouldn’t say that Biden is the most intelligent man ever to be elected President but I think he’s got a lot of street smarts that will serve him well.

I suspect that the combination of anti-vaxx and covid denial will cause something very like an American Holocaust. The analogy is horrible but I don’t think it is inappropriate since deaths could easily reach into the millions.
The difference is that most of the victims of this holocaust will have brought it upon themselves through their arrogance and gullibility. Covid will run wild through the un-vaccinated, especially since common-sense precautions like mask mandates and crowd limits are already under massive pressure and cannot conceivably be sustained once a vaccine is available. There is little evidence of the anti-vaxxers’ holy grail, effective large scale herd immunity, developing either. Opportunistic new diseases and disease strains could also appear and attack the weakened systems of Covid survivors.
When this is over, the instigators need to be brought to account, tried before a special international tribunal under the Julius Streicher precedent.

I agree with all of that. We already know Biden is scrappy (see his performance in his debates with Trump) and knows how Washington works, having sat in the VP’s chair for eight years. He’ll do a fine job, and really, all we need is someone capable to help us pick up the pieces from the train wreck that is the previous administration.

Not bad but I like Shiplord’s Kracken better.

I used Qaren, because I wouldn’t have to casually explain it all the time to people, and I could use the term “Al Qaren” to describe the entire group of them with their obnoxious religious-like adherence to nonsense.

Al Qaren declares a jihad on masks.
Al Qaren declares republican governors who put COVID restrictions in place to be heretics.
etc…

re: #14 jaunte

Google the house. I used to have a boss, back in another lifetime, who was married to a very wealthy attorney. She had a personal stationery store in Buckhead, we designed and put together fancy invites to weddings and parties and personal writing materials for really rich people. My boss and her husband(til their messy divorce a couple years after I was hired) lived on Tuxedo Road, right down the road from Loeffler’s place. Lots of money and privilege and really snotty humans. I was paid pretty well though. But trying to sell her image as having a clue for one fucking second as EVER having to worry about money or food or shelter or any other damned thing is going to be really easy for Warnock to point out to people. Plus she’s an awful human being and only appointed because of who her husband is and her personal wealth. She’s the richest member of Congress.

I know that gratitude and thankfulness are supposed to swell naturally from the heart, but sometimes you have to teach and instill the ways to access those emotions. And so today when our rescue dog was stretched out on the human sofa instead of her bed, I made her watch ASPCA commercials on loop.

After about the fourth iteration of Sarah McLachlan’s “Arms of an Angel”, I think the dog would likely leave. I suppose that’s the point.

I don’t think he’ll be forgotten. His name will enter the language as a generic term for a vile person, kind of like “Quisling.” A thousand years from now people will curse each other with it. “Hey, that trump magat tried to steal my speeder!”

Perhaps but only in places culturally American? I have seen one person in one hundred get a reference to Quisling and that person was, actually, a Norwegian visiting the US (family over here).

He was an American war hero. If he hadn’t turned traitor, he would be an American legend. Instead, he felt slighted by the way his government treated him for his efforts in the war, and now he is an object of scorn and derision.

There was an interesting article on him in Smithsonian last year.

When republicans commit voter fraud, they get found out, and they get punished, they don’t successfully create extra votes.

It’s actually really hard to commit voter fraud and get away with it. So, so, SO much harder than making it so certain people are never allowed to vote in the first place…

Well, no. What we have now is a very low rate of voter fraud. Individuals who attempt to vote more than once constitutes voter fraud and is a very rare phenomenon in the US.

Election fraud is what Republicans are gaming up for where the entire election process is gamed and rigged to disenfranchise voters, intimidate voters and poll workers, rig ballots and machines, and rig courts to give hearings to otherwise ludicrous claims. This is what Republicans are gearing up for starting 2 years from now.

Exactly! Sounds like you’ve been there and done that.

Just thought that I would add to the list of cryptic and inscrutable Arnold monuments.

A biographer of Benedict Arnold pointed out that he was hyper-competitive. And having made it all the way to Major General, the only position available was George Washington’s. And Washington was politically unassailable. Additionally, the hardships and wounds he had received during the previous war years had made him a very physically debilitated. Finally, he was something of a relentless jerk in his goal to make it to the top and nobody really wanted to work with him anymore.

Among the first White House senior officials to be publicly announced by President-elect Joe Biden are three Latinos who previously served in the Obama administration and have now been asked to return to a new White House in roles including chief of staff to Jill Biden.

NBC News reports that both Julissa Reynoso Pantaleon and Anthony Bernal will return to the Biden administration to work for the future first lady as chief of staff and senior adviser, respectively. Julie Chávez Rodríguez, who also worked on Vice President-elect Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign, will return as director of the White House Office of Intergovernmental Affairs.

The selections have been praised by Latino and immigrant rights advocates. Chávez Rodríguez is the granddaughter of civil and labor rights icon César Chávez and “brings a wealth of political experience that was forged, first and foremost, as an organizer,” Newsweek reported.

“By age 10, she was handing out union leaflets and had been detained at a boycott,” the report continued. “In her previous White House role as deputy director of public engagement, senior policy adviser and special assistant to President Barack Obama, she helped develop support for his immigration agenda, including the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program. She also oversaw engagement with immigrant, Muslim, Latino, and Asian American and Pacific Islander communities, as well as veterans, LGBTQ, education, labor and progressive groups.”

No medical system on this planet is equipped to deal with thousands to millions of people occupying ICU beds simultaneously. 95%+ of those who catch CV-19 may survive, but that doesn’t mean 95%+ experience no symptoms or symptoms so mild that they don’t even require bed rest. And the growing wealth of info is that even those who are asymptomatic on the surface are suffering injuries under the skin that will lead to disabilities down the road.

Has our media so desensitized us to the dangers of a pandemic that people will only listen to experts if the disease results in bleeding out of every orifice while coughing up black sludge?

By the way, if you are curious about United States medical resources, here is some planning data from back in March. I suspect that the numbers are better estimates now.

healthaffairs.org

In very rough numbers, depending upon who is doing the counting, 5000-6000 hospitals of various types and sizes. 750,000 to 1,000,000 total beds. 70,000-100,000 ICU beds. Many of the beds were already occupied by non-Covid patients. The number of beds might be expandable. However trained staff needed to run them is much less so.

The entire WH knows they lost. Trump too. But it’s clear there’s some percent of Trump voters that aren’t aware it’s a coup attempt, not earnest electoral complaints. They’re going to be very mad.

And this is where the grifters find out it’s much harder than they expected to dial down the crazy after it’s outlived its usefulness, because trying to do it just makes you one of the traitors to Trump too. Plus, Trump isn’t done whipping these assholes up, and anybody that didn’t sacrifice themselves to get him installed for a second term is now a traitor as well (like the GOP Senate and the courts).

If anyone takes a shot at a GOP politician, it’s going to be a frustrated rightwing nutcase. You keep telling them that mob violence is the answer to their problems, you can end up reaping what you sow. I’m sure the GA GOP is dreading a Trump rally there before the runoffs.

There’s always going to be bottlenecks in the system, no matter how much people may wish it wasn’t so. Some can be alleviated with increased resources, others by loosening regulations and requirements, and others by making equipment easier to use so that you don’t need certain qualifications. But eventually you’re going to reach the point where you simply can’t squeeze any more blood from the stone.

For example, those cheaper/simpler ventilators that we spent billions on getting designed and built, only for the contract to languish because it was an Obama admin priority that the Trump admin decided wasn’t worth pursuing. Those ventilators were designed so that you didn’t need specialist training to set them up, cheap enough that you could buy them in bulk, and could sit on shelves for years ready to go. But because the interest in them wasn’t there and the company that was contracted to build them saw more money to be made in offering a snazzier design to interested buyers, we had to make do with what ventilators we still did have stockpiled that were functional.

This has been a slow-rolling trainwreck since ‘08, when the white majority of America woke up and found a black man had won the presidency. What kept it (mostly) harmless for the followed 8 years was that it had no clear leader, with various factions fighting for control and always ended up victims of their own pride and ego. But it was only in Trump did they finally find their Dear Leader, the man who they would live and die to advance his vainglorious ambitions. And they will not dump him as many hoped, they will only further embrace him and act out what they believe to be his will.

Well, I mean, c’mon, it’s in the Bible, right?

28 When Jesus had finished saying all this, he went on toward Jerusalem. 29 As he was getting near Bethphage and Bethany on the Mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples on ahead. 30 He told them, “Go into the next village, where you will find a Koenigsegg Agera RS that has never been driven. Steal that fine-ass mammajamma and bring it here. 31 If anyone asks why you are doing that, just say, ‘The Lord needs it.’”

32 They went off and found everything just as Jesus had said. 33 While they were hotwiring the Koenigsegg, its owners asked, “Why are you doing that?”

34 They answered, “The Lord needs it.”

35 Then they brought the Koenigsegg to Jesus. They put their Armani jackets on the driver’s seat and helped Jesus get in. 36 And as he rode along, the people made it rain on the road in front of him. 37 When Jesus was drifting down the Mount of Olives, his large crowd of disciples were happy and praised God because of all the miracles they had seen. 38 They shouted,

“Blessed is the king who comes
in the name of livin’ large and donations from suckers!
Peace in heaven
and glory to God.”

Heh. All three of those are certainly in the realm of plausibility.

my theory is that along with their current fear of trump supporters pulling the rug out from under them, various Republican senators are also terrified of the fact that Trump will, after he has been indicted and sent to prison, be impeached, because I’m pretty sure there’s no way in hell the government can allow a president to be sitting in prison for what I’m guessing will be a ten year stretch without somewhere along the way having an impeachment and formal removal from the corridors of power where he gets a private security detail and whatever additional privileges come with being an ex-president, other than a presidential library. And can you imagine the shit that would hit the fan when Republican senators are forced to vote yea on that, betraying the Lost Cause dead-enders?

Obviously the former is hugely important since it helps guide the apportionment of members of Congress and apportionment of resources to the states (and then the districts within the states). If they follow Trump’s lead, millions of people will end up not being counted and states with large immigrant populations will be fucked.

It’s amazing how everyone but Trump is responsible for his loss.

He had a strategy that could have worked had it come down to only one or two key states that would tip the election. But he would have to tip four states to gain a majority at this point and that is not at all likely.

Google “Nobby Stiles” sometime.

Nobby died a little while back. He was one of the greatest ‘choppers’ that ever sent the opposition’s centre-half off the pitch on a stretcher. His ultimate skill was to foul a player leaving him rolling around on the turf in agony while getting the ball to one of his own players and the TV replay would show conclusively he was never within five yards of the poor sod. Sheer genius.

Speaking of accidents/injuries, there’s that video showing a car race making the rounds - car goes headlong into the rail and explodes into a ball of flame. The car has disintegrated with the tail section disengaged from the cockpit area.

And somehow the drive comes out of it and walks away.

In years gone by, that driver would have been dead. No question about it. The tech in the race cars today saved his life. And that tech has been working its way into production cars for a while now.

This is the top of Hannants Hobbies list of plastic model aircraft, in descending order by price. They are in the UK and most of these prices are actually less than what American dealers charge for the same products. As a former poor kid who scavenged pennies to pay for a twenty-nine Aurora model kit, this is almost other-worldly to me. It reflects a lot more than 60 years of inflation, it has a lot to do with the transition of plastic modeling from a children’s activity to an adult hobby. It’s kind of like the replica Buck Rogers raygun I saw advertised a few years ago, an allegedly exact duplicate of the movie prop. It was priced at $495.00.

It’s sort of like class action law suits. Steal $20,000 from one person, that’s pretty straight forward. Steal $500 from 40 people, it’s a bit more complicated but still manageable; steal $5 from 4000 people, nobody is going to waste the time to deal with it.

So the CNN headline on its home page is: Moderna says vaccine is 100 percent effective at preventing severe Covid-19 cases. The article itself never repeats that claim.

Is that
(a) an actual assertion from Moderna or
(b) did the news media interpret the results on its own (5 cases, none severe) or
(c) did Moderna make the the more precise claim that none of the cases in the sample developed severe Covid?

Hopefully it wasn’t option (a) because that would be extremely irresponsible.

I agree with #336 above - I think this is sloppy reporting, extrapolating from the numbers provided and making conclusions that may not be warranted.

LOL

The Volvo 240 series is easily one of the all-time best damn cars ever produced. Easy to work on, engine lasts almost forever with proper care and the interior is the very essence of simplicity.

But does it hold 13?

We once fit that many people in a little subaru hatchback back in college. It was a good thing we all liked each other, and we didn’t get into an accident on our way to Denny’s

Use your laptop in the car via the cigarette lighter. Most modern laptops have a cup holder.
