  1. Why the fuck do people post on The Asylum? Anyone whose post count is higher there than on any other board should be perma-banned. And why are people so angry with people lately? sblfilms and greatoneshere are fantastic users. We lose them but keep the trolls driving them away?
  2. Newsmax's Greg Kelly Calls for Trump Supporters to Form New 'MAGA Party' WWW.MEDIAITE.COM Newsmax host Greg Kelly is calling on conservatives to replace the Republican Party with a "MAGA Party." YES!
  3. My school division is a decent size (32 schools, ~12,000 students), and we (IT department) have been trying to mentally (and of course, factually) prepare administration for the possibility of learning from home. We have in-school 100% right now, with mandatory masks, and so far haven't had any in-school spread. We've closed classrooms for two weeks, and even one school for a week, but we've been lucky. But really, if we need to go fully remote again, the teachers/admin have no solid plan. Many of the kids we serve in poorer areas of the city have no home computer, or even home internet.
  4. My workplace made a small bet over when our schools would shut down for a second time (IT for a school division) but I definitely don't feel bad about that compared to this.
  5. More than a third of 83 people who attended Ohio wedding test positive for Covid-19 WWW.NBCNEWS.COM Among those to contract the virus were the newlyweds and their grandparents. Fuck these people.
  6. Yeah, it's not good. Mask mandate is good, as is the limit on gatherings...but people need to stop seeing people altogether for a while. Also, the definition of "public place" for mask usage doesn't include office cubicle spaces, which is so dumb.
  7. Lol We are able to count by hand because we literally have a single choice to mark in the federal election, not the stupid referendums allowed in the US.
  8. Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend is an amazing podcast, give it a listen!
  9. I believe that Conan achieves his greatest success when he does "Conan in public" bits. He is so clever and quick-witted, he can riff off of anything when he's around people. I will never forgive NBC and Leno for what they did to him. He's such a standup guy, and how he treated his crew was fantastic.
  10. It's a good idea in principle, but there also needs to be money (that can't be abused) for people who can't receive vaccines, for whom the entire point of vaccines is her immunity so that they are no longer at risk. Those people are also more likely to be disabled and need the financial assistance more than able-bodied people. But in general, I do like the idea of an incentive.
  11. It will always be true: Democrats fall in love, Republicans fall in line.
  12. Canada is introducing public subsidy for news. There are kinks to be worked out, but as long as the press certifies each other as legit, then they get funding. There is a board that governs the money, made up of newspaper/media owners, journalist union leaders, and government appointees. It can be done, but the system has to be non-partisan.
  13. I would have no issues with a child Anakin if they'd made Obi-Wan the main character for the three movies, and had had a great child actor who could portray latent evil/violence.
