[QUOTE=TechSticles;4829267]I'm going to assume you aren't any sort of health professional (or scholar since you don't know what punctuation and paragraphs look like) but you speak with a certainty that's interesting. Then you devolve into who you voted for as if that matters about the corona virus.

You act as if the lives lost to the pandemic were simply inevitable when you make those comparisons. There's plenty of studies (none that you've read) that show that our failure to act early probably contributed and extra 30 K+ deaths.

I thought about spending time refuting your points individually, but it's tiresome. What I'd like you do is go start hugging everyone you know that thinks like you. I see this as an opportunity to Darwin our way out of some stupid fucking shit.[/QUOTE]Your right, I don't use correct paragraph form in the spirit of saving space on this site. Not going to be able to grant your "Darwin" wish as I typically don't hug men and at this point don't do handshakes with either sex. If I am in an environment that requires it or around anyone at risk, I wear a facemask. Congratulations on probably reading more studies than I have. The track record of the author's of several of the mathematical models is not the best but absolutely, more masks and more shelter in place means less deaths. So, everyone upset about the unnecessary and preventable "30 K deaths" should go ahead and do an extra 6 months of shelter in place to "flatten the curve" and prevent even one more death that could be stopped. And for those that do, please don't ask for any more handouts during your hibernation or when you emerge as the risk takers and job holders have carried the shelter in place and unemployed by choice crowd about as far as we can stomach. I don't get personal or emotional about contrarian viewpoints. I wish you nothing but the best. Good luck.

I agree that they didn't die then, but what miracle is going to prevent them from dying now? Has a vaccine or viable treatment been discovered? Did staying inside for 3 months confer on them some magical protection? How are the people who would have succumbed to covid in March somehow able to survive it in June, July, or August?

There was one and ONLY one kind of death that shelter in place was supposed to prevent and that was death due to inaccessibility of health care because the health care system was overwhelmed which has never even come close to happening and before you trot out the "unprecedented" cases of doctors practicing in tents in NYC they did exactly the same thing in 2018. There was never going to be two million deaths like Neil "always wrong" Ferguson predicted (same guy who said Sweden would have 75,000 dead by the end of March unless they locked down) ultimatly this was the largest over reaction and demonstration of privilege (just stay home for 3 months, don't be so selfish, you will kill grandma) that I can recall seeing in my life.

Let me put it simply, you, and those who thought like you reacted in fear and insisted on a course of action that has driving a half a billion people back into extreme poverty, and now you want to justify your hysteria with bullshit nonsensical studies. You should be ashamed.

What kind of fallacy are you going to use now? Ad hominum combined with argue from authority worked on the OP. What are you going to use on me? Just make sure you address the. 26% IFR and not 4 or 5 with whichever bullshit you go with.

Also before you assume I'm a Trumpeter, not, life long lefty here.

[QUOTE=ST0808;4829169]The worst thing Trump did is promote racism like saying there are fine people on on both side. That is fucked up, there are no fine fine people on other side, one side want to enslave colored people and call them less human and other side just trying to survive in this fucking Trump world. Trump took this country back to 60's where some white mother fuckers (majority whites are decent people) could do anything to colored people and get away.

This Trump administration had no idea how to handle the COVID and tried to down play it. They started monitoring this in March and more than 100,000 died in just March, April, and May?? Do the math. If it would have been unchecked then it would be 300,000 or more in a year with all the shutdown and shit. Without shutdown and masks it could be million or more.

On the side note, I'm so amazed that there are lot of racist pigs on this site chasing pussy and praising an orangutan in the White House.

Sorry if I offended the orangutan species.[/QUOTE]First, look at yourself very, very closely. Second, get an education. Third, read the first two points. Your biased, racist diatribe shows exactly what and who you are: nothing worth a molecule of oxygen. Let's everyone take a knee on you so the world can breathe better.

That was the G-rated version. You want the real version? PM me your address, punk.

You speak with some sort of expertise that I simply don't think you have beyond being an admin on a forum. Seriously. You either suffer from optimism bias or you simply fail to grasp the reality of the situation. Nice of you to bring up an alternate issue regarding lost income and poverty, which has nothing to do with tamping down a pandemic.

Let me put it simply. Your opinion doesn't mean any more that the dipshit that I replied to below. You should be a bit ashamed of using your admin pulpit to jump in and attack people, as if your bullshit comes with any more legitimacy than anyone else.

BTW, how's that classifieds site thing coming?

Read your post here, you are a resist idiot and that is it.

This is so true! Dr. Fauci seems credible but man they just can't say "why'all we don't know what in the heck is going on". Just leave it at that.

Lee's Charlottesville statue torn down. A NPR poll at the time showed a majority of Black Americans, 44/40 didn't want statues torn down. Fine people on both sides of that argument is a valid point. Trump on the driver who plowed thru the protesters, '"You can call this terrorism, you can call it murder, you can call it whatever you want," he said. "The driver of the car is a murderer. A disgrace to himself, his family and this country. What he did was a horrible, horrible, inexcusable thing. " That murderer got life plus 419 years. You watch too much TV. Try original thoughts instead of being manipulated, used as a pawn by white progressive neo-liberal globalists.

NYC hired 1,000 contact tracers paid well and by the citizens of NYC. Their purpose is to trace the contacts of China virus new cases. Tracers ask about "close contacts" defined as being within six feet of another person for at least 10 minutes. They're not allowed to ask new infections is they attended a protest. Over one million dollars a week in salaries for an utterly useless pursuit. Pics of NYC protests over weekend. Orangeman bad.

Speaking of useless doctors, any prospects on good head doctors?

[QUOTE=JohnnyMapalo;4820202] Anybody on here ever had so much "game" that they got it for free? Like paid for a hotel room and used their "game" to get her to come over and bang for free? Now, that is what I would call the "ultimate game".[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=ExMyNtMILF;4820296] I would think this is common sense I mean we are women and want to be treated kindly, IMO.[/QUOTE]I haven't been doing this for very long, about 7 months. I've seen about 10, maybe 12 providers total. Roughly half have been total deadbeats and I've just walked away from the service or did a one and done. The others I've established a rapport with and I've had 3 of them offer free sessions. Not every time, but sometimes. I have zero game. I'm not handsome, or hung or anything of the sort. In fact, I'm disgusting looking by any standard. However, I am respectful and make sure to treat the providers kindly. In talking to these providers, I've found that most rarely get treated respectfully and very much appreciate it.

Now, I do insist on donating even when free is offered because I prefer it to have a transactional element, otherwise it's wholly personal. I'm not comfortable with that, so I've hidden donations in dressers, on chairs, etc. Obviously, they take it most of the time, but I've had a couple "take this back, I don't want it" situations and I've had to insist.

[QUOTE=JohnnyMapalo;4820202]It's all about that "Mac" game. If we don't have "game", unlike most of you guys on here, we can look forward to paying the max amount to get laid. If we are blessed enough to have "game", then we can sweet talk her down to a low low number. Anybody on here ever had so much "game" that they got it for free? Like paid for a hotel room and used their "game" to get her to come over and bang for free? Now, that is what I would call the "ultimate game".[/QUOTE]I can only comment about the strip club world. In that world, there are plenty of girls that will fuck for free. You can't be a dick. You must be a little forceful, but not a dick. You can get it for free. It is not that hard. I've had enough of strippers, waitresses, and bartender chicks to know it doesn't take that much game in that world. One thing you have to realize is that not every chick in a s trip club is interested in sex with you, so don't try too hard on any one girl.

I'm nothing to look at, so I know it's not my face or my muscles getting any of this done.

I really miss the days of craigslist and backpage. Listcrawler is purely trash right now. Smh.
