If you think things are bad now, wait til Chauvin is acquitted. I say that as an Angeleno and

Veteran of the Rodney King verdict and ensuing unpleasantness.

Remember Preznit Plump's warning about government statistics?

Here's an exact quote.
It was a total lie then, but amazingly on point now:
Trump repeatedly claimed during the campaign that the federal government was understating the real unemployment rate.
"Don't believe these phony numbers," Trump told supporters early last year. "The number is probably 28, 29, as high as 35 [percent]. In fact, I even heard recently 42 percent."

So, I believe that by late October, the Plump administration will be releasing statistics showing that unemployment is around 1.9%, along with CDC statistics stating that there were only 3 deaths related to Covid-19 since September.
And his leg-humpers will be blasting those numbers all over cable news and the internet, even as they trip over the bodies lying in the streets on their way to the unemployment office to beg for an extension.

I couldn't find a clear photo, so I had to recreate President Plump's pill bottle myself

This is how we get PRESIDENT BIDEN! Gung Ho! NO FIGHTING. Everyone keeps lifting everybody else til

A PSA I just created for all the Covidiots out there...but now I'm wondering if I really want to

help those kind of people survive...

Republicans are now Pro-Life and Pro-Death at the same time. And they don't see any disconnect.

There's no reaching these folks.
Everything we have in our power must be concentrated on the 5 or so states that will determine the outcome in the Electoral College.
And the first thing we need to do if we regain power, is to pass laws EVERY SINGLE DAY if necessary to ensure voting rights, VOTING RIGHTS, these are more crucial to ensure the continuation of a reasonable society than anything else. Without voting rights for EVERY CITIZEN, nothing else can happen, health care, the economy, civil rights, everything takes a back seat or we'll continue to struggle.

I propose HUGE mandatory prison terms for anyone found guilty of preventing a citizen from voting, the only thing right winger racists will ever understand is losing their freedom to run around being right wing racists!

Trump is not sick. Pence is not sick. Barr is not sick. Giuliani is not sick. Hannity is not sick.

PUTIN is not sick.
Kim Jong Un is not sick.
Xi is not sick.
Ali Khamenei is not sick.
Al-Assad is not sick.
Erdogan is not sick.
Maduro is not sick.
Duterte is not sick.
Bolsonaro is not sick.
Saudi royals are not sick.
Don Jr. is not sick.
Jaranka are not sick.

And plenty more. What are the freaking odds?

I'm not a scientist but it looks like being a gigantic flaming asshole provides a shield of protection that even Coronavirus can't penetrate.

had to add this, forgot how literal people are around here

Where the fuck is Koch Industries in all of this? They make Brawny, Angel Soft, Mardi Gras, Quilted

Northern, Dixie, Sparkle, and other PAPER PRODUCTS and make $billions.

How much of a stretch could it possibly be for them to MAKE PROPER PAPER MASKS for Americans to use for their own personal safety?

Isn't the name "KOCH" supposed to be synonymous with rock-ribbed, All American He-Man patriotism?

They should be doing this RIGHT NOW, with no need for any kind of order from the War-Time Orange Anal Wart.

COVID-19 also attacks YOUR TEETH, apparently. I've been very lucky with my teeth, I'm 68 and have

only had ONE cavity/filling in my entire life. Probably because, when I was a little kid, I hated going to the dentist and I asked him "what can I do to never come here again?" He laughed and told me, "brush and floss 3 times a day" and that is exactly what I've done ever since. I remember the look on my parents' faces when I demanded dental floss at the grocery store. I was 8 years old.

So...yesterday I had an emergency extraction of a broken tooth, left rear molar, in fact, the only tooth I have with a filling. I had gone to the grocery store early (senior hours) and had picked up a bag of Doritos. When I got home, hungry from no breakfast yet, I decide to have a chip or 2. I put one in my mouth, bit down, and then a rifle shot of pain through my jaw and gum. I though that a sharp corner of the Dorito had pierced my gum or something, but after inspecting it in the mirror, I could see the tooth was cracked in half, I could actually move either half of it, although that hurt like hell.

I couldn't believe it, my teeth have always been a point of private pride for me, I have artificial lenses in both eyes AND a total hip replacement, but I though my teeth were bulletproof.

Luckily my dentist was open on Saturday, for emergencies only. (Right no in Los Angeles county at least, only emergency dental work can be done). They made an instant appointment for me, and 2 hours later I had the extraction, then a freaking bone graft in my jaw, a membrane covering the empty socket and everything sutured up.

So I asked the dentist, how could this happen? How could a Dorito break my tooth? She told me the Dorito didn't do it, but, indirectly, COVID-19 did. She said they have had an unprecedented spike in broken teeth like mine since the pandemic began, people (especially those already prone to it) are intensely clenching their teeth and grinding their teeth due to stress from anxiety over what's happening. She's never seen anything like it.

And I remembered, while sitting in the waiting room for only 10 minutes, the lady at the desk had taken 2 phone calls and I heard only her side of the conversation, but they both went :"When did you break your tooth? You say it was the middle of the night last night?".

My dentist recommended that I buy a Night Guard thing as soon as my mouth heals a bit, and she said it wouldn't be bad if lots of people feeling stressed out bought them too, because people can wind up breaking more than one tooth this way.

So, it's just anecdotal evidence, but I think it shows there are side effects to Covid-19 that we couldn't have imagined before.

Oh and, I've been self quarantined for 12 days, doctor's orders(for 30 days at least), and this was the first time I've had any interaction with people without a mask over my mouth. I can tell you it was scary to have 2 people only inches away from my mouth for 2 hours, I almost felt like*what the hell good was my quarantine*???
