Trump visiting a mask factory in AZ, with Guns n Roses Live and Let Die playing in the background...

That's because there wasn't a rollaway screen for 'The Trumpsman' to be playing in each background photo. They each got a coupon code but it expires in two-days.

Next Trump will start a Twitter feud with Ringo and Izzy Stradlin then dig up Shannon Hoon and blame him for the Bee Virus or some shit.

I really dont understand how people get away with this without getting their asses kicked.
I dont care how many guns those morons have, he would 100% leave the store without a mask if I was there.

Disgusting fat piece of shit.

he did, in fact, leave without the mask... "The man finally removed the hood, bought his items and left. "

I would assume the pussiness is the passive aggressive part. At least that is my opinion.

Generally speaking I’m sure we’re on same page, as if anything I try and descalate situations.

But, like Kevin, I’d have a hard time being in same space as dude in pic without getting in his face. You just can’t let some shit fly in a civilized world.

That mother fucker. I wish i was there to beat his ass or at least throw something at him. Probably 15 minutes from my house. The area Santee has been known as clantee for sometime. But its changed a lot. That dudes a minority.

Is it the Time Cube model?!

Seems a lot more like they are ignoring all models

I don't know about you, but I 100% believe that a model developed by a council of economic advisors, none of whom went to medical school or have any formal training, and which contradicts every single other model available, is a totally accurate forecast of the trajectory this disease will take.

No chance this doesn't make things worse on us in the long run when cases spike again and we once more have to put our dumb asses back in lock down.

A country that did things right.

What’s Behind South Korea’s COVID-19 Exceptionalism?

Seven weeks ago, South Korea and the U.S. had the same number of virus deaths. Today, South Korea has fewer than 300, and the U.S. has more than 70,000.

www.theatlantic.com

In late January, just one week after the country’s first case was diagnosed, government officials urged medical companies to develop coronavirus test kits and told manufacturers to prepare for mass production. By mid-February—while the UK was talking about “herd immunity” and President Donald Trump was predicting that the virus would “miraculously” disappear in weeks—South Korea was churning out thousands of test kits every day.

(We did none of what they did.)

One of my takeaways from this is that medical staff is trained to keep fucking around with people long after they should have died. This is one reason that my advanced healthcare directive says, essentially, leave me the fuck alone.

Got a chunk of the way through it. I hit the section about vent suction and it took me back a decade. Man, when the machine that breathes for you stops and then sucks the fluid out of your lungs, it’s brutal. Layer on the stress fresh wounds from just having you neck opened up, front and back, to reattach your head, and it’s a world of pain you want no part of. You realize how much you can manage pain by breathing through it, because when you can’t breathe through it there’s nowhere to turn. Nothing like being suffocated while you get the shit beat out of you.

That said, it’s nice to have clear lungs, and avoid pneumonia. It’s even better when you get a cute Canadian nurse leaning over you to manually compress your chest during the suction. The Americans don’t have that protocol, and it’s a shame.

In your opinion, what is an acceptable amount of risk?
That’s the question that every country is grappling with

I'm not sure I'd agree that that's the question they're asking when it comes to looking at different ways of addressing this.

For instance you can ask the population in sweden to not be idiots.

Over here, we all like DUURRRRRRRRRR

'Truly problematic.' Hand sanitizer ingestions surge during coronavirus pandemic

A handful of severe intoxication cases from intentionally drinking bleach have been reported in California, which is less than seen in some other states, including New York and Maryland.

That's why the sweden thing annoys me. The US and Sweden are on incredibly similar trajectories in terms of case and death rate growth. People in civilized first world countries generally aren't morons. We're exceptional. The exact same actions taken in sweden (which remember, has a functional health care system) would have disastrous effects here. We are literally not smart enough to do things right.

As far as a general statement on risk, my personal problem with the current situation is that I don't feel like the people around me are smart enough to do things correctly. That's based on watching behaviors here over the last two months. Hell, I got sick with some very familiar sounding symptoms in late march when we got the first snow storm we'd had in a while and the place was flooded with derpaderp overnight. But since I'm already such a hermit I know exactly where I caught whatever the hell that was....an absolutely packed rite aid that usually has like 5 people in it. I already see that exact behavior again, even after all the hooplah. That's dangerous.

I don't feel safe with these people on the roads either but we at least have a lot of systems in place to minimize problems in that realm. It's not perfect but it has a demonstrable effect. We don't have any of that shit in place for covid except for just 'don't go near people'. So until we have a good profile of infection, that's what we need to do while individual states figure out testing.

Agreed but you can't fault nurses and doctors for trying to save a life. Most younger people have no such directive.

‘We were at a COVID party’: Walla Walla County claims to trace new cases to gatherings of people hoping to get coronavirus

It is unknown whether contracting the coronavirus that causes COVID-19 makes a person immune to it in the future, according to the state Department of Health, which condemns the idea of people intentionally exposing themselves to the virus.

I went OTB on a small teeter at Silver Star. My 888 air wasn’t pumped nearly enough after I unpacked it from the flight. I thought I was hitting a small ladder drop, but the teeter tipped me way forward and I couldn’t pull out of a nose wheelie. I landed on my head and folded my neck. Busted C3/4 and was fully paralyzed from the neck down. C4 is right about where your nervous system operates the diaphragm, so I was on a vent. The vent ET tube (through the mouth) was awful. I took the offer to get the trachea hole upgrade and it was so much better. If ya gotta be on a vent for long, I highly recommend the neck hole for comfort.

 

[eric strt6]

wait that not right. Dialysis centers require everyone entering to wear a face mask. I was picking up a client when a patient came in that breathes through a tracheotomy tube mid throat. They put the mask over her nose and mouth

 

[kidwoo]

trachea hole upgrade

Sweet jesus.


Glad you had some health care workers that didn't just say fuggit


'was' fully paralyzed? Where you at now? I've developed some new muscles loading a paraplegic buddy of mine into a trike at northstar when he gets motivated. I don't think he got the trachea hole upgrade at any point.

If you ever want to go on a rampage killing anyone who ever built a teeter totter I'm in. I'll do all the work if you're limited on KILL KILL KILL.

Now I’m partially impaired. I walk, but I’m hemiplegic. My left arm and leg have limits and issues. I look pretty able bodied to most people. I can ride my single speed on the streets and flat trails. I’ve got a few invisible issues, like bowel and bladder dysfunction. Overall, I’m okay with it. I’m not even mad about teeters.
