Interesting listen as we grapple with the recurring impacts of the Climate Crisis.

8K is a bit nuts, but man those are sick.

I wonder how much productivity went up a workplaces around the globe.

TikTok, Reddit and Twitter were up.

I have no more patience left for that group.

They won’t listen to me, or to you, or to anyone that’s not part of their ‘tribe’.  The right wing has decided (stupidly) that this is an us vs them political issue.  Until they decide that it’s an all of us vs the virus public health issue, nothing will change.  Yelling and shaming won’t help, but it’s a form of catharsis for the rest of us.

Since they’ve made this calculation, they should just hurry up and get infected already.  That’s realistically what they’ve gone with.  I’d just like to see the insurance companies cutting Covid related expenses from policies if people are choosing to go unvaccinated.

Some pages back, I put together my thoughts on 5 distinct types of people that have yet to be vaccinated. I think for purposes of this part of the conversation, we are discussing the vocal and vehemently anti-vax. The ones showing up at rallies, the ones showing up at school boards, the ones denying science, the ones pretending masks are a threat to their freedom,  the ones believing and spreading all the lies and misinformation online.

For that group, in the USA, yes, I absolutely believe the large majority of that group are TrumpPublicans.

apologies for the large graph.  the image embedding in this forum is not great.

"Being understanding" hasn't worked thus far, soooooo ....

Are you sure? Is there any sort of evidence or research to back that up?

Shogun is quite often the only one making sense here. If everyone was the same, wouldn't that be boring? A lot of folks toe the leftist line, at least he is brave enough to speak his mind. I will continue to read his posts.

What a crock of horse shit.

Went for brunch with a friend this morning.  Gotta admit, I like showing my passport at the door knowing that the pro-pandemic crowd aren’t allowed in.  I’ve always liked concierge lounge access at YVR and hotels on vacation, now I get that everywhere.
