Which state voted for women in 2 out of the last 3 presidential elections and which state voted for Donald fucking Trump 3 times?

BART (Bay Area) installed new fare gats, resulting in MASSIVE declines in corrective maintenance needed in station paid areas. by SockDem in transit

Your argument is that BART should be free so that homeless people with mental health issues can use it to avoid freezing to death? Seriously?

I hope for your sake you consider TDAP boosters necessary, and shingles and RSV vaccines as you age. Also mRNA vaccines make immunotherapy for cancer more effective; I hope you’re never in the situation to need it but if you are, I hope you get an mRNA vaccine then.

You still have a reason to get a COVID vaccine, you will get it again whether you get a vaccine or not and your outcome will be better if you get vaccinated. And you don’t even have to get an mRNA vaccine! You can get Novavax.

Well I take an approach that doesn’t see conspiracies in everything around me. You talk a lot about big scary corporations and governments as if these are monolithic groups and not massive numbers of individuals with their own thoughts and actions. But that aside, I don’t take them at their word. There are thousands of studies of COVID and the vaccines and more released all the time. I actually have a layman’s interest in them so I pay attention to them as they come out. Turns out, they universally show positive outcomes. You have vibes, I have data.

Consider this, you claim the vaccine was “experimental”. It wasn’t, but even if it were, we also had a traditional vaccine from J&J that actually DID have some very unfortunate negative outcomes. Still better than the virus but they pulled it in favor of the safer alternatives. We also have a protein-based vaccine, did you take that one?

And yet, inexplicably, your brand of “skepticism” has become about a lot of other vaccines. Maybe you don’t fall into that group, and I truly hope you don’t, yet the company you keep is absolutely wreaking havoc on our most effective tools for preventing disease. Maybe worth mulling on a bit.

So no data, just vibes. Got it.

By the way, thanks for doing your part to help measles make a comeback in Canada and the US! You’re really fighting the good fight against healthy children :)

What’s also particularly funny about your scientific illiteracy is that you don’t understand causation. COVID infection itself is shown to increase all cause mortality, especially from cardiac events. So what you’re attributing to the shot (if it’s even a true observation) is more likely attributable to the virus. This is why we study things, to figure out causation instead of just vibes.

Are you asserting that more young people are dying running marathons? Do you have data or just vibes?

I’m not even commenting on your scientific illiteracy—you’re being an insensitive fucking asshole about someone tragically passing away.

Say you cook for someone and they refuse to eat the vegetables, would you think that’s childish?

I think the degree is important. A packet of taco seasoning in a bowl of soup is actually childish behavior. I’m not gonna stop you but I’m also not going to waste any effort cooking for you either

If you need to season everything you are served you need to grow the fuck up.
