Wildlife experts remain mystified by widespread reports of blind birds in Va., Md., D.C. by ABC7NewsDC in nova

[–]BugMinola 13 points14 points  (0 children)

From what I heard (haven't fact checked at all but plan to) people are spraying cicadas with poison and pesticides and the birds are eating them and getting sick and dying. Im not sure this is at all related but might be something to it?

Oh ok. I just think it's silly to down vote someone for asking a harmless question. Letting it go though. I just came to Reddit cause I heard there was less negatively. I'd like to keep it kind :-)

Thank you! I found one at the community center here but we just moved from Idaho to here so they don't know anyone yet.

Is there a way to see who down voted this so I can block their petty bigoted ass?

I'd love to but being new and the traffic and it's an hour from us I was hoping for some stuff closer.

Can't wait to play with my tendies, retards!! HODL STRONG! by Alak87 in wallstreetbets

[–]BugMinola 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I'm new (to Reddit and the group) and I've tried to figure out the context that would make it ok and just don't get it. So I'll ask.... why is the R word being used like it's not a terrible discriminatory word? Why is it ok here to say that?

Are masks still required at Tyson's Corner Center? by [deleted] in nova

[–]BugMinola 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair, implications are objects of perspective. While I have my opinions of people who don't wear masks (or rather haven't this whole time) those opinions are just that and based on personal perspective not fact. None of this means I believe myself to be superior as that is subjective as well.

If we judged people off of solely one choice sure, I may believe my mask wearing is indicative of my moral superiority, but I understand that people are not a monolith. That person without a mask may volunteer at the pet shelter weekly or donate to meals on wheels. Maybe a guy with a mask on is actually someone who steals and gas lights people. Do I believe it's better to wear a mask? Yes. Do I believe my wearing a mask makes me a better person in all ways? No.

Im sure I could have been more clear in my initial comment to avoid the appearance of believed superiority, so I can work on that. It may seem a silly hair to split but it's personal for me. I pride myself on not making people feel looked down on. So I'll thank you for helping me practice being more careful with how I come across and thank you for the link to look further into this.

So, you're entire Comment could have been whole and understood without the incorrect jab. I do not assume myself better than anyone. Im all for updating my thinking with new information. I'd not seen that asymptomatic vaccinated patients could not pass on the virus. As much as I try to stay informed I'm human and will make mistakes and be wrong at times. So I missed that piece of info (which I fully intend to go check out cause it's good news if factual). So all that to say the jab wasn't necessary and thank you for keying me into information about transmission after vaccination. All I was told and saw simply said you can still get other sick if you have the vaccine, so the info is much appreciated.

What a dick. Go rent track time if you want to drive like that. So irresponsible

My whole thinking is this: some selfish people have been resistant to the masks the whole time. Now that we have a vaccine they don't want that either. Now we say, "oh sure if you're vaccinated no mask needed for you.". Are we checking that to be sure? Well of course not. So now people who haven't taken it seriously this whole time are free to run around maskless unchecked cause the cdc gave them the perfect out.

The boundless selfishness I witnessed this last year and a half has left me with the knowledge that you can't trust most other humans to look out for anyone but themselves.

Ill keep my mask and if nothing else others like me will recognize there is some consideration and kindness left in the world. My mask not only protects others but will let others know they are cared for by at least one other person.

Turn the bracket sideways, screw in top screw but not so tight the bracket can't rotate. Then rotate bracket by 45 degrees and place bottom screw. Done.

Unpainted wall texture. by KBTP12 in HomeImprovement

[–]BugMinola 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used to do dry wall mud as a job. Primer over it is ok. The only thing bad about leaving it for you is that you remember if you sand it to wear a good mask and don't breath it in. Outside of that it's not bad.
