We all carry a tracking device in our pocket now, willingly.

You mean cell phones?

What is the tracking prognosis on my 10+ year old flip phone, with no apps and no internet/GPS activation that I am aware of?  I never carry it while in my home area because I have no service.  I only carry it and turn it on when I trek into civilization across Back Creek mountain.  Even when I travel west to Pocahontas Co WV I never carry it because it never works supposedly from the block from the Greenbank WV Observatory.

I'll the you the story of how the army can find your cell phone the moment you turn it on!


Tell us the story.

I never worried about someone finding or tracking me, but this may prove to be yet another reason to get rid of the damned thing.  I was never fond of cell phones, and I don't see that sentiment changing.

I don't remember having a landline until I was high school age, and that freaking thing got me into more trouble than I earned (girls' parents calling my mom, school calling my parents, ugly girls calling me, game warden tracking my whereabouts, etc.).  Piss on all phones!

CDC says that means your body is building protection.  My reaction wasn't that strong, but that's what I'm counting on.

Got my second one Friday, and it threw my ass down and stomped me flat Saturday. I felt fine yesterday, though.

Glad I'm no the only one. I worked part of day today but it has whipped my ass. Surely tomorrow will be better.

It has been interesting to hear the perspective of those folks in central  TX who do not give a rip about Covid.  It seems many do not regard it as a threat, and believe the response was more destructive than the virus, which oddly mirrors the immune system response to the virus. During my time there last week, I did not meet a person who was vaccinated yet. Some asserted 90 percent of the population  in the Lampassas-Hamilton area were infected, and most seem to simply not give two fucks about the virus.

While I don't agree or disagree with their stance, I chose to mask up because I thought it was the right thing to do, and did not use the mask as a tribal badge.  That being said, it would also be helpful if we did not judge others so harshly.  Gov. DeWine (R) is a wise man for impletmenting the vaccine lottery.

I don't think most Americans understand how many hands on deck is required to get food where it belongs. We are 7 meals away from revolution. A complete shutdown is not feasible.  Fauci is an epidemic expert, and not a logistics expert.

Regarding the Flynn piece, his remarks are clearly for an exploitable target audience, but it is undeniable Covid was leveraged by certain media outlets to achieve certain politcal objectives.  I see no real difference between the Q leaning Trumpers and the Wokers.  Both need to STFU and get a life.

Perhaps, but does WOKE have a Marjorie Taylor Greene?

I am impressed with the scientific process and swiftness dealing with this bug.  It was amazing.  I am particularly grateful for the work and fortitude of Karikó and Weissman.

It's both disappointing and worrisome experts we lean on so heavily would succumb to Trump derangement syndrome, and compromise their integrity in a manner such as this. It was also the Lancet that reportedly hated on HCQ just because the orange man spoke well of it, using dubious methods and data to arrive a certain conclusions. It is learned later.....

Everything is so politicized nowadays, that it is ridiculous.

I do take issue with the Vanity Fair article over the assertion Trump's anti Chinese rhetoric lead to anti Asian violence. I've seen nothing on the news where Trump supporters have been attacking Asians.  What we have seen is an increase in violence in cities where Asians live due to boneheaded policies.

Telling lies until they stick is very Trumpy.  Someone should tell the writer this.
