Re: Movie reviewing ethics during COVID

As it's been sitting for years, there's also the chance that this movie is just crap and they're trying to avoid advanced reviews taht will be negative.

Re: Republicans

Deciding not to even have a platform is a nice way of admitting that the party is just a Trump cult of personality. Why confuse hard working people with issues?

Re: This Happened

I was trying to verify how much bats really eat and found an article discussing the flaws of some studies. I found this beautiful quote: "If you locked a person in a room with nothing but lima beans in front of them, that person might eat a lot of them. It doesn't mean they would keep doing it ...

Re: Locals

Austin is one of 5hose towns Fox said was a war zone. It wasn’t. In fact half my family went to the protests. This is a lie being told to make white people scared. And it's working. There a large numbers of people totally divorced from reality believing that antifa and BLM are looting and killing o...

Re: How do you write dates?

Huh. When I put dates in file names, I still put them at the end. But I'm used to sorting by date. I do mm/dd/yy. Not because it's better but it's what people are used to and communication is important. Entry systems with other methods have higher error rates because people resort to their norm with...

Re: Hydroxychloroquine

Overall, it doesn't seem to do much. The above study showed some signal - it was small and not a standard RCT (which was understandable given the attempt to get results quickly). Three large RCTs found no benefit. Though the paper that showed harm has been retracted. From : https://www.recoverytrial...

Re: Trump

When Trump is out of office, I really hope Biden doesn't just say "off you go" to all the Trump officials. For the long term health of the country, we need near Nuremberg level trials of all the corruption and unconstitutional acts. It could easily look like partisan punishment. But if tha...

One of my kids often has trouble having a normal sleep schedule. Melatonin an hour or so prior to ideal sleep time helps.

Re: Democrats

I'm already seeing the liberals on Facebook grousing and talking about how they're not going to vote because he didn't take Warren. To which I say, "Shut up. You're not fooling anyone. You'll vote Biden." They'd better. We can't take another Trump term. The corruption and post-truth envir...

Re: Tahlvin Will Probably Kill This Unkillable Thread

Then why is it still three for $2? Hmmm? By August 5 we should be firmly into five for a dollar territory with the BEST kind of two-tone yellow and white sweet corn. The corn at the stores here has all been small and dried out looking. Crappy corn year. Normally, I love the bicolor sweet corn for a...

Re: All things COVID-19

Biden wears empathy on his sleeves. I really hope that Biden will go all emotional recalling deaths in his family, and then use it against Trump in a big way, and demonstrate that Trump is entirely devoid of empathy, and I suspect that it will resonate with a lot of voters, because empathy is somet...

Re: All things COVID-19

Members of the non-immediate family continue to get the covid positive test. The family Republicans fall into two camps: 1. those who believe that the libs are still terrible people determined to destroy the country, but who nevertheless see at last that their god-emperor lacks clothes and his enab...

I'm not surprised about the low frequency ones being hard to get but it's killing me that none of us have guessed #2 or #3. Come on people, we can do this!
