Good livestream, landing in 18min our time

For those unaware, Perseverance, like Curiosity, will land using a sky crane.

Doing better than Nursing Home Staff #AbolishNursingHomes: "Early reports suggest nursing home residents are getting vaccinated at a higher rate than workers. A CDC analysis of more than 11,000 long-term care facilities found that in the first month of vaccinations, about 78% of residents got at least one dose, but only 38% of staffers did." Vaccine Hesitancy vs. Vaccine Refusal: Nursing Home Staffers Say There’s a Difference | Kaiser Health News KHN.ORG It’s becoming increasingly clear that decision-making about the covid vaccine is complicated and multifaceted, which means persuading people to say yes will be, too.

My girlfriend and I get our second dose on Saturday, both my parents have had their second doses already. New variants notwithstanding, we will be out of covid mode, kind of, on March 6th.

My cousin is very angry.

Big thread in an SMA Facebook Group I'm in about the vaccine. So many refusing it, holy shit. Most common reason is lack of research, from the community who also take drugs that were tested on less than 200 people....

This happens with SSI all the time, every month I would get a new bill saying I was overpaid or underpaid because they went back two months to guess my future disability check. It then takes three months for them to process the check you send them. If TANF is as much of a mess as US disability programs, then nuke it from orbit. Sometimes you can't fix this programs and you're better off just starting over, we've been trying to fix the disability system for decades and managed to only make it even more of a cluster fuck. Excuse me while I go to report my income on social security's broken website and then make room in my bank account so I don't dare go over $2,000 on the first of the month even though I get paid from my job on the 31st, better do it early though because it takes 7 days to transfer the money to my able account. Also can't lose those disability expense receipts, or that random IRS audit of my able account will terminate Medicaid on me.

I'm honestly mixed on this. On one hand I get teachers want it and having them high on the priority list makes strategic sense. At the same time it feels like another slap in the face to people with disabilities who've had to undergo the the hardest quarantine while living in constant fear that their caregiver is going to give them COVID (big up tick in the last month of people with SMA on Facebook Groups getting COVID, all mild thankfully). In North Carolina people with disabilities went from 1a down to priority 4, then an NC county decided to start dosing prisoners and teachers. It just adds to the feeling this is never going to end because your slot keeps slipping. The result is a lot of people with disabilities are now saying screw it and jumping the line one way or another.

Nuking the filibuster, doubling the size of the house, and banning gerrymandering is the only way to end this.

Both NASA and the Air Force are putting money into Starship, if needed I'm sure they would step in to intervene against the FAA. It is too big of a game changer for bureaucracy to get in the way.

Was there an investigation every time Falcon 9 crashed on landing back in the day? Because that rocket crashed a lot.

Holding, someone violated the range perimeter, Deputies are removing them.

SN9 Test Flight T-30ish minutes

When do the shorts expire?

Why does Google say GME is $351 and my ETrade say $193...

Elon readying for launch.

CNBC is having a melt down.

Sure, but there is no such thing as a wasted vaccine. Few cheaters is worth it.

NC did the same thing, high risk went from 1b to 4. NC is also taking vaccines from hospitals and local health departments in favor of mass clinics, forcing them to cancel appointments.

I got the vaccine, may have gotten COVID in the process, but fuck yes this is almost over, kind of.

Elections have actually consequences then.

My mom is getting her vaccine now, I got the call too but was rejected...

As resident cripple: paras are the worst. Judge should have given him nothing, put his ass on Medicaid and the 4+ year waitlist for disability services.
