COVID has created such a weird loser fetish.

Damn the writer needs therapy not a pen. Moving to Texas I can tell you Covid is over in Dallas. We went to a food hall on Friday and it was shoulder to shoulder standing room only packed with people eating and drinking. Not one mask anywhere in the place it was refres

I have the ecovacs deebot.  Ideal for woodfloors, but it will also go up and do throw rugs.  If you don't run it regularly (at least twice per week), it tends to get overwhelmed by the buildup of dustbunnies and dirt.  I think that's typical of most of these devices.

Sort of a poor man's roomba, but often rated pretty close (mine is like 3 years old, so consider that).  Does a decent enough job if you run it every other day - probably covers about 250 sqft, realistically, in an hour of operation.  Probably would take 3 runs to hit all of a 500 sqft floor at least once.

The main problem with this, and even more expensive options (again, tech has probably gotten better the past few years), is they tend to get hung up on stuff.  And I've never been brave enough to test it to run while I'm gone with the alarm set because they do bump into chairs with enough force to move them a tiny bit.

Everything I've read is the mopping options aren't that great.  They either do a pretty mediocre job, or they'll potentially damage your wood floor.

So my advice is to get a recent top of the line sweeper.  And then put in the time to fence off areas where it gets hung up.  Mop your floors yourself a few times a year.

An overlooked issue is how often you have to put in maintenance on the brushes. If you have to spend 15 minutes every week cleaning the brushes to keep it working smoothly then how much time are you really saving?

Thanks I was actually looking at the deebot

Anyone got a Robot Vacuum or mop combo? Do you like yours? What one would you recommend. It will be mostly on tile floors.

Dick Pound......nice

Ya know, I actually know a guy named Dick Beaver and another guy named Dick Seamen. 

Sounds like you know Dick well

Before the vaccine, if you died WITH covid, you died OF covid. Now, if you die with covid it was probably something else. Interesting.

CDC Director Rochelle Walensky, somewhat confusingly, says they are aware of 223 people who have died with covid after being vaccinated.

"Not all of those 223 cases who had covid actually died of covid. They may have had mild disease but died, for example, of a heart attack." pic.twitter.com/KmjbrXnd1k

My best friend who has been chubby to fat since I’ve know him (5th Grade) lost 90lbs and looks skinny. 

Then another good friend started losing weight just a couple months ago and has lost a staggering amount in just two months.

I’m going to Vegas with them next month and one of them is proposing to his g/f out there so it should be a good time. 

Free Lottery ticket for 1 million woohoo

I’m driving from Denver to Nashville starting Friday. Am I fucked?!

Haha I’m doing Columbus to Dallas starting to think we’re fucked as my mother in law said she tried 8 gas stations in Kentucky before she found some

Eating out and this last week 1/2 the places the staff are not wearing masks anymore. People are over it. I can’t wait to be in Texas next week and not deal with Dewine.

So do I, but it’s also a lot better than the standard, “We’re moving in the right direction. But still not quite there.” Especially from a liberal city and mayor.

This will be DeWine.

Hell Yeah

No it doesnt help but thanks for your usual trolling

I wasn't trolling, that's what those parts of his speech were directly about and you said you didn't understand. So I tried to make it simpler.

He is saying that racist people still exist, which is why he has had to deal with racism, but the government itself is not racist.

Hope it helped that time. I can say it again if you still don't understand what he meant.

Finally listened to the tim scott speech.. so basically he said it’s not a racist country and then tells how many times he felt the pain of discrimination? What am I missing?  Smh 

You are missing the definition/difference between individual racist people, and institutional racism.

He is saying that racist people still exist, but the government isn't sponsoring it like it did for about 170 years (legalized slavery then all the way into Jim Crow laws).

Hope that helps.

I feel like this type of crime comes in waves. You hear about them being cut off for a few mo the every few years. I wonder why

Okay any ideas for stops on the way from Columbus to Dallas. I will probably make it a three day trip since I’m waiting on the moving truck anyways. 

The Granddaddy Purple Slushy XL from 450 North is GOOD.
