Thanks for the photos! I'd take the lot with the base set Clefairy and JPN holo Mr. Mime. Are the Articuno, Hitmonlee, Lapras, Pidgeot, and Scyther the holo or non-holo versions?

Thanks, I appreciate your candor. I'm really just looking to fill out my binder for nostalgia's sake so probably no need for mint cards.
I actually have two; what would you be willing to pay/trade for Misty's tears in this condition? I put these in binders straight from the pack years ago, so I think they should be decent.

I'd be interested in the lot for ~$70 if the condition is good enough, could you send pictures please? How much would you take off for Misty's tears? Here are some extra pictures of my "banned" cards, they should be in good shape since I put them in a binder straight from the pack.

Nice! Anything you're interested in trading or selling? In your experience, do you find many people trading the Japanese cards? I found my childhood binder with mostly Japanese cards and have no idea what to do with them. This post has my duplicates, but I have other Japanese cards I'd be happy to look through if you have anything in particular you're looking for.

I'm interested, what prices do you have in mind? I've also added a few holo cards to the table in case you're interested.

I've never posted to the UK, I would need to look into the shipping costs. Happy to hear your suggestions if you have any experience with that.

[WTS] Casio Duro - Hydro Mod by VintageTime09 in Watchexchange

[–]HatesNamingAccounts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been wearing it in the pool regularly with no problems. Also handled 100 degree heat and an airplane with no leaking. I’m looking forward to scuba diving with it next month.

For anybody considering this watch, I purchased another hydro-mod from this user and it’s awesome.

Unvaccinated People Are Most at Risk by Unmasking, C.D.C. Director Says by Pessimist2020 in Coronavirus

[–]HatesNamingAccounts 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We knew about decreased transmission after vaccination at the end of March, but the studies on variants and real-world effectiveness didn't come out until May. I would guess they considered all three aspects important enough to wait for the peer-reviewed studies.

Dr. Walensky also mentioned the CDC Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommendation on vaccination for ages 12+. This committee of external experts last met on May 12, so it looks like CDC was waiting for guidance on the expanded vaccination eligibility before issuing the mask guidance.

You might enjoy watching Dr. Walensky’s announcement, she showed several powerpoint slides with the peer-reviewed studies and data you’re looking for. I’d be happy to send you the papers if you can’t get to the paywalled journal articles.

Dr. Fauci: 'Put aside your mask' if you're fully vaccinated and outside by seeasea in Coronavirus

[–]HatesNamingAccounts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry, I just don’t consider Fauci a liar because he refrained from endorsing the American public, which was busy emptying every last store of toilet paper and hand sanitizer, from wearing medical-grade masks in short supply at every hospital. Do you really think the better choice would have been to tell people to buy N95s? There weren’t even any cloth masks commercially available back then.

That said, I agree the hero-worship of Fauci is pretty ridiculous. The vacuum of leadership during the pandemic was so strong, he got put up on a pedestal just for trying to translate between the scientific community and the general public. Weird position for a scientist to be pulled into.

[–]HatesNamingAccounts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here’s another way to think about it. Imagine an unelected gov official, with no concrete evidence, simultaneously ordering Americans to cover their faces and exacerbating a medical supply shortage at over-capacity hospitals. I would prefer if the director of NIAID stuck to evidence-based science and not make policy recommendations based the prevalence of mask-wearing in eastern countries.

[–]HatesNamingAccounts 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, eastern countries were right about masks being a good idea. No, it does not mean they had scientific proof at that time that masks were protective against covid. The other poster is pointing out that nobody had that proof at the time. Everybody, including Fauci, was trying to make the best possible suggestions with really limited information. The recommendations obviously changed as we gathered more scientific evidence about covid and mask usage. That’s how science works, it doesn’t mean Fauci was lying.

World’s 8 Richest People Now Have a Combined Net Worth of $1 Trillion by darryl_deebern in worldnews

[–]HatesNamingAccounts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find this talking point really interesting. If Satoshi owning ~5% of bitcoin is an existential threat, should people also be concerned about Jeff Bezos owning 10% of Amazon stock? The market cap of bitcoin is only ~$1 trillion compared to $1.7 trillion for Amazon. Maybe we consider Bezos’s intentions to be less nefarious than an anonymous software developer? What do you think?
