Then eating at Taco Bell should not be a problem for you. 

I wonder if I could taste that?  I mean none of the ingredients are actually food

Christmas?  You can fuck off

I dunno why anyone is still taking about Johnson and Johnson vaccine. I know the US has ordered it and it should be approved by the end of the month but their production delays are horrible. By the end of May, Moderna and Pfizer should have enough vaccines for any adult who wants one while J&J will have like 12 million doses.

They can sell those to China

On one hand, I don't have a problem with Biden saying Christmas.  He's saying he has no idea, and doesn't want to give a date, only to be wrong and scrutinized.  I don't blame him.  

On the other hand, screw COVID.  Let's just get back to normal already.

582 days to slow the spread.

What he should do is give us a date.  July 4th sounds good.  On that date, all restrictions lifted.  Do what ever you want.  Leave it up to the adults in this country.  You want to wear a mask, wear one.  You want to stay locked down, stay locked down.

If cases rise after that then add something on.  If they dont then good.  We wont know unless we try.

Yeah, because Easter worked so well for Cheetoh man

15 days to flatten the curve; about 300 days to turn into communists.

He's danged if he does, danged if he doesn't.  It's one day at a time, in terms of dates.  The only thing concrete he could do, which I would love, is say, "Let's just get on with our lives right now."

Exactly.  Let us decide what to do

I don't think you understand the narrative of the new world order

Canada and the UK sound like they are moving towards a Huxley novel right now

I guess DeWine cant come out and call the pandemic over (since we arent actually in one based on cases and severity), saw a new commercial today where he called it "a health challenge"

Fauci is absolutely horrible at messaging. Coming out and saying vaccinated people still shouldn’t eat indoors or go to a movie theater is plain stupid. 

It’s like they’re actively trying to talk people out of getting vaccinated.

agreed, if they wanted every single person vaccinated, just tell them that once they pass an antibody test 4 weeks after vaccination, they can do whatever they want

Mind numbing.

Yeah I’m good on anymore Fauci. But, it’s not surprising. It’s like Biden with his Christmas comments. They’d rather be too safe. 

Fauci is not only being overly cautious he’s putting restaurants and bars out of business. 

Starting to see fans back in the stands at more and more NBA games.

Wonder how difficult it’ll be to get Reds tickets with the 30% capacity.
