That's what I was thinking. The episode is pretty based, so it's kinda weird.

I thought it kinda looked like a spiral. Little more context about the episode, it's about a society that resembles 21st century Earth, but is ruled as an absolute Democracy, using upvotes and downvotes to settle ideas.

Pretty sure this company runs ads on Sirius XM Patriot.

MAJOR SPOILERS: Metal Gear Solid V

Villain is an ex CIA asset developing a vocal chord parasite that can be activated by any language of his choosing. He decides to test with African strains until he perfects the English variant. The lady that is infected takes a vow of silence due to respect and admiration for "Venom" Snake, who is himself a Body Double of the world's greatest soldier.

Videogamedunkey on Youtube does a short rundown of the whole series with a couple jokes thrown in: https://youtu.be/aaLiLRVeaZA

This one has been resonating the most with me lately: Vampyr takes place during the Spanish Flu. Among the period correct medicines you can find is Quinine; a relative of Quercetin and Hydroxychloriquine.

I'm going to guess it has something with the monoclonal antibodies. Regardless, hope you stay feeling well, fren!

3 counts of assault with a deadly weapon...since when is shooting people not attempted murder?

I'd laugh if it wasn't so sad. Keep up the good fight!

Well on the bright side, that makes it multi purpose atleast!

They have to make a big deal out of something the community likely could have done themselves, cheaper and more efficiently.

I remember reading a story about a man building a set of stairs and railing at spot (for like $250) because people kept falling down and hurting themselves. The city came in, tore out the stairs ("Not up to code, no permit"), and hired a contractor to put an inferior set of stairs for exponentially more. Great stuff.

Is that a cricket field?

In all seriousness, this is the kind of stuff they do here in the States, it just looks a lot nicer. They also use "for the community good" to justify the cost.

Ah, yeah, beating a woman until she miscarries definitely takes the cake.

We've had a couple shootings on both sides of the mask issue, but those were civilian incidents. People have lost their damned minds. I hope things get better for y'all down under.

That's very true. I think the Aussies still have some guns, but definitely much less than US and maybe even Canada.

I was directing my question more towards the forceful government response and the jailing/arresting of folks that don't wear masks. I suppose there is a difference, it just doesn't seem like much of one from an American perspective.

Forgive my ignorance, but what's the difference between the Canadian and Australian response?

It's the Nightmare on Elm Street song: "1, 2, Freddy's coming for you..."

Cardi B did WAP, not Nikki Minaj. Nikki Minaj did that Anaconda song that sampled Baby Got Back. Kek.

I'm in the classical liberalism mindset that consent and non-aggression are key. "Sexual degeneracy" without consent is rape - a crime. With consent, it's a private matter that's non of my damn business.

I went through and counted EVERY candidate. I might have fudged a number somewhere, but at 18:08, 9/16/2021, 75% reporting, I counted 5,112,485 votes for all the candidates. Only 3,354,109 Yes, Recall votes.

Either people voted not to recall but voted for a candidate to replace anyways, or there's fucking fraud.

Doctors kill more than guns in the US, should give rational people pause when blindly following "the medical community". I was skeptical at the start because of how often docs refuse certain types of treatment/are incentivised to make decisions based on government subsidies (putting people on ventilators/saying there's no treatment for COOF but there's multiple vaccines that "work").

It's a game they made. I didn't stick with it long enough to get any more information out of it.

He had the bushes locked down, atleast.

There's probably a bunch of folks sitting in a room, constantly spitballing ideas and possible cause/effect relationships. Branching ideas and paths to "predict the future".

War Games with a side of infinite timelines/multi-dimensional thinking

Hospitals operate at high capacity normally. Check the average capacity of the hospital, compare it to current. The difference is typically about 11%, yet still under 100% capacity. That's not exactly "ransacked".

Additionally, how many of these hospitals have flu cases? If they don't have flu cases, how many "covid" cases do they have? People have been acting like the flu doesn't kill people and that covid is "far more dangerous", yet there's very little to back it up. Flu kills between 250k - 650k people every year.

My current opinion on it is that the Flu is a bioweapon that's been harnessed for longer than any of us have been alive.

First use of biological warfare: 1347, Mongols catapulted plague infested bodies into (what is now) Ukraine.

Modern day, we tinker with the viruses in labs and "accidentally" release them every year. Culling of the population with no-one the wiser.

I used to use Fascistbook for shitposting and long winded challenges of the daily controversy.

13 year old account permanently disabled for Wu Flu misinformation, Kyle Rittenhouse memes (supporting "dangerous" individuals or organizations), and a meme comparing people with useless masks to Nazis with their armbands (another supporting dangerous organizations violation).

And their stupid "memes". Really cringe.

Would be awesome if Texas started repelling foreign invaders by force instead of just letting them walk.

Carry around a bottle of freshly pressed juice and they won't even be able to say you're lying. Good stuff.
