Wong says the team’s new vaccine could also provide protection against coronaviruses that cause influenza and the common cold.

Ugh science reporting is terrible. “This new tool could stop the cockroaches that cause bedbugs.” See how stupid that sounds?

Influenza is caused by influenza viruses.

I link this article every time the discussion comes up:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._economic_performance_by_presidential_party

The first paragraph is a doozy.

While at one point GTA was my favorite series and I was absolutely hyped for GTA V, I’m not for this one. I kind of feel like I’m getting a little old for GTA.

Maybe I’ll change my mind after it releases and there’s a good chance I’ll play it anyway, but right now… meh.

Really only Once Upon a Time in Hollywood comes to mind, but it’s not Scarface level popular.

Expert consensus has a different role than the OP. It’s a statement made by people who are intimately familiar with a body of evidence and are consolidating the many narratives of that evidence into clear statements.

Yes, it’s not true merely because they say it’s true. It’s most likely true because these experts have analyzed the thousand tiny individual pieces of evidence out there and have determined they are all pointing to the same key conclusions. That’s not an argumentum ad populum, that’s analysis and interpretation. Ignoring that because you saw some TikTok video is the actual fallacy (argument from authority.)

Article doesn’t even say what the data shows. Did it go from 1000 cars per month to 1001 cars per month? Did it go from 10 cars per month to 1000 cars per month? Because some scenarios are more noteworthy than others.

Finally, these child groomers will be brought to justice:

Don't step out of this house if that's the clothes you're gonna wear

I'll kick you out of my home if you don't cut that hair

Your mom busted in and said, "What's that noise?"

Aw, mom you're just jealous, it's the Beastie Boys

Only took 40 years.

Yep, linux runs way lighter than Windows and will probably run much snappier than you expect.

Authoritarianism

Shit, I can’t get Windows to print on my network printer. Have to uninstall it, reinstall it, manually set the IP, restart Windows, and then it’ll work for like one session and then not work again. Windows won’t even throw an error, it’ll just tell me it printed while my printer sits silent.

On linux it works every time. It’s gotten to the point where I don’t even try to print in Windows anymore, I just forward all documents to my laptop and print in linux.

Ok. It’s an estimated solid 45 blue electoral votes so let’s go ahead and make Canada a state!

At least not only Republicans. Republicans may have very well been annoyed at their party, but “tax the rich” is a very Democrat chant.

But does the measles vaccine make your body forget your immunity to all the other viruses out there? Nope, only measles does that! Checkmate!

Yep, exactly. Biden spent 4 years cleaning up Trump’s mess, then Trump claimed that Biden made the mess and his voters bought it because they’d been dealing with a mess for 4 years. Now Trump’s back in office making an even worse mess, and the person after him will get blamed for cleaning it up.

That’s actually a trend for Republican presidents in general. Many voters believe that Republican presidents are better at handling the economy, but in reality Republicans consistently make a mess and leave Democrats to clean it up.

Oh lovely

I’m not familiar with it.

Some are. Most aren’t.

Liberal elitism is a rallying point for conservatives, and displaying it does not help matters. Not everyone who disagrees with you is dumb. The more accurate thing is that Trump taps into something that encourages even smart people to not think critically.

Daredevil: Born Again. I’d have liked Karen to be a regular character.

That’s not the equivalent at all. That’s pro-Zionism, and has been the US party line for decades. Biden even admitted that back in the 1980s.

How on Earth are you equating that to MAGA?

Do they? Sure, Bernie supporters love to sniff his farts, but they’re not making him the center of their conspiracy theories and there’s no indication they’d believe him if he said 2+2=5. And no one’s getting this excited over Harris, Biden, Warren, Buttigieg, etc.

We need to stop pretending both sides are basically the same. They’re not. They were in the 90s, when it was Clinton vs. Bush. They were pre-Trump, with people like Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz. But Trump is in a league of his own, and there is not a liberal equivalent of MAGA right now.
