    Or I could be mistaken. We will have to see the final authorization.
    You see, it's not going to work that way. He wants to buy this election. If you delay it all with trying to qualify all this, it will never get out there and work. Or, bazooka, baby! Stand back!

    I need a new computer, too. Now.

    Does anyone else suspect this "old friend" of KQ's might just have been angling to bust a "the world is coming to an end, let's get funky" move on her?

    If they're really, truly excited about this, his friends are fucking psychos.

    If she looks anything like her Avatar hell yes
    Never in U.S. history has the public chosen leadership this malevolent. The moral clarity of their decision is crystalline, particularly knowing how Trump will regard his slim margin as a “mandate” to do his worst. We’ve learned something about America that we didn’t know, or perhaps didn’t believe, and it’ll forever color our individual judgments of who and what we are.

    Lulz.
    I vote for optimistic but realistic.

    There’s a fine line between carrying on with normal life versus convincing people to take precautions. Very subjective to the recipient as well. I have several personal friends that weren’t even slightly concerned a couple weeks ago.

    And re: all the recoveries China is reporting, no mention made that they were ripped out of their house and thrown into a hastily built field hospital on a ventilator for weeks.

    Scary. But if you read to the end of the article, they casually mention his history of asthma, bronchitis, and cancer.

    President Trump could cure cancer and people would still be complaining that he put oncologists out of work!

    Seriously: what would make you happy, in this situation?

    But it didn’t stop him from flying cross country. Hacking and coughing.
