My bad thought this was about the covid and flu vaccines. Should rtfa i guess.

More a way to stop vaccines while maintaining deniability.

Just some quick bigger stories. There are others as well.

If you look into it an amazing amount of them are further funded by Russia. Not solely but enough to make them bigger than they’d be otherwise.

The old vaccine has been pulled because it is seasonal, the new one is usually already approved by now but that is seeming unlikely. CA and blue states are basically having to make redundant state health agencies because the federal level is fucked.

So its not like restaurants where they can legally be paid under min if tips make it up but rather that housekeeping tends to be immigrants (often illegal) and thus underpaid. Most hotels will allow you to opt out of room servicing but when you leave they still have to “turnover” the room. Those neat sheets and clean towels all get thrown in the wash. The carpet still gets vacuumed, etc.

All that said I don’t really follow through on this all the time especially as I don’t carry cash as much nowadays.

Whole stay, when you’re leaving. What the housekeepers do is up to them. It isnt like restaurant tips, the expectation isn’t as engrained. Maybe 5-10 per time your room is serviced maybe more if you’ve left a real shitshow for some reason.

No on the bus driver. A hotel shuttle you can give a couple to if they help with the bags but generally not.

Idk, just don’t get divorced or that courtroom picture of choosing who gets which will stick around forever.

As people have said you need to change from a negative reason of self-loathing to the positives. Performing better in bed, sleeping better, just generally being less depressed, removing unrealistic expectations in bed, not contributing to exploitation are just some of the benefits.

Just set it as a challenge to yourself to go a month without (how nnn started) and set your own punishment and reward (not porn or sex related) for success or failure. On success (or failure), try again.

Why you putting poptarts on pizza?

The filling is like a bad taxidermy. You know what it is but it’s just not right. Icing is more of the same. The biscuit(?) part is cake flavored cardboard.

Big difference between what should be and what is across a broad spectrum of things right now.

And were protected from thalidomide babies.

FDA no longer has expert review and they’re choosing the “scientists” who review anything new. There’s also further decrease in food screening (FDA again) and a loss in tracking and prevention of infectious diseases (CDC). The destruction of American health is going to make us so much weaker as a county long-term in a way that isn’t as easily recovered from like the economic shitshow of Tariffs and incoming stagflation.

There aren’t any real standards right now obviously. I just personally think the ethical bar for impeachment shouldn’t be in hell though.

SCOTUS can be impeached. Unclear who would run the trial if you’re impeaching Roberts though.

Thomas, Alito, Roberts, Kavanaugh, and Barrett all need to be though.

Yeah, basically what happened to Florida and a part of why it went from swing state to Red.

Yeah, moving to lower cost of living will make you relatively rich. It’s a reason people sometimes retire to rural (lower tax-red) areas. However, If you’re still working the usual problem is that the jobs also pay less and “amenities” are also less. Fewer good restaurants, less option for entertainment, worse schools, etc.

You and I know thats true and piracy in some cases is shown to increase sales because people decide its worth money and/or talk about it more. Heck some people pirate things they already own just because they’re too lazy to find the copy they own.

Their (incorrect) logic is that if you were pirating you weren’t purchasing their content anyway.

I wouldn’t trust Trump to pour water out of a boot with the instructions written on the heel.

I don’t trust anyone wealthy/powerful enough to be above the law with my family, community, or country. That includes Trump and his entire Cabinet.
