You know you have to get COVID to have natural immunity, right? So what should we do, have COVID parties like parents used to have chicken pox parties for their kids?
I highly recommend staggering them though. I did them both together last year and felt so sick that I had to take a day off of work (still better than COVID or Flu). This year, I had a COVID booster and I’m getting a flu shot Monday. The COVID shot did nothing to me but give me a sore arm and flu shots never do anything.
Work requirements are not mandates. People at the industrial half of the place where I work (I’m in the office) have to wear safety goggles. They aren’t mandated to wear safety goggles. The government isn’t forcing them to wear safety goggles. They just have to do that as a work requirement. No one forced you to get vaccinated just like no one is forcing them to wear goggles. That doesn’t mean choices don’t have consequences.
So death is the only metric? Long COVID isn’t a metric? Just missing two weeks of work isn’t a metric? Because we don’t get flu vaccines because we’re worried about dying from the flu, we get them because we want to avoid getting the flu and avoid the worst symptoms if we do. And that’s even true of other vaccines. The polio vaccine wasn’t about stopping death, it was about stopping the crippling effects of polio. Sort of similar to the crippling effects of COVID.
Yep, they just need some love and gentle care and training. I have a half-pit and the only things she’s aggressive with is small critters. She really loves killing them though.
So I thought The Creator was brilliant. I watched it in the cinema, thoroughly enjoyed it and was gobsmacked when I learned it's budget was only $79 million. It looks better than some films I've seen that cost three times that....
Cody Johnson put it very well when he talked about how movie executives saw that Barbie was a smart and funny movie with a good message and decided that meant they needed to make more movies about Mattel toys.
Executives don’t even like movies very much. They just want to make money and they do whatever they think will make money, not make good movies.
My mom has a type of Chinese Crested with a full coat of long hair and she’s a very pretty dog. A very sweet dog too. I’m still mad that my mom got her from a breeder, but I can’t deny that she is a pretty and sweet little dog.
My dog would do it. She’s evil. She has murdered many small animals and then uses their corpses as toys before eating parts of them and leaving the rest to rot.
She once found a nest of baby bunnies in the yard and slurped them all up like spaghetti as we watched in horror.
You don’t get how Hollywood executives work. They see Barbie being a massive success because people thought it was a smart and funny movie with a good message and decide, “this means we need more movies about Mattel toys!”
They have absolutely no understanding of movies. It sort of feels like a lot of them don’t even like movies.
