Stopped at a burger place.. My “no salt, well-done” fries were soggy, undercooked, and salty.
I’m not planning to return to that place. -

Perhaps I am wrong:
Kristin Tate, "Rural America booms as young workers leave the cities behind" https://gnusocial.cc/url/530071
Interesting numbers on population movements, rental and property prices... Although the author of this opinion piece is a libertarian, text and links are worth considering.
OTOH: It may all be true that *newly* arriving people in the rural areas have good chances for jobs and settling down, but that doesn't need to say much about the people already living here, mostly blue collar, still forced to work 2-3 jobs in service and low tech manual labour or assembly line jobs. They may profit from an improved infrastructure paid for by influx of tax dollars, but their job outlooks seem to stay the same. -

TFW you are watching Babylon 5 and you see a game of baseball being played on the interior of a large rotating cylinder and you start a discussion with @profcooley about tangent velocities and coriolis effects. Bottom line: we understand baseball on B5 now. -

Rush was a shithead, but I really don't understand the need to post about how glad you are about it. idk, maybe it's worse that I simply don't give a shit one way or another. I never listened to his program. We all die. I'm not going to lose sleep about everyone. -

> Ultimately, an effective vaccination campaign can’t just happen in the U.S. and a few other countries; it has to encompass the whole world. If it doesn’t, there will still be places for new and more dangerous strains to develop. “You can vaccinate the hell out of America,” Mina said, but “until everyone is protected, we’re all still at risk.”
Exactly why I believe wealthier countries like the US should each "adopt" one or more poor countries for vaccine purposes. -
