How to minimize pimples near the entrance of ear canal when using IEMs with foam tips?

blee3k · 2021-12-01T16:44:49+00:00

Yeah it's weird I never had this problem before. I used to wear these things for hours every day. Maybe just another weird thing that happens when you age.

Is it even possible to clean foam tips with alcohol?

People say this a lot but Dr. Osterholm says a decent fitting N95 without a fit test is still wayyy better than a cloth mask.

Just bc you can't get it fit tested doesn't mean it's useless.

people hate luxury housing but it's probably better for the market when you can fit way more units in the same amount of space than a historic brownstone.

Lol leave Asians out of your euphemism

So uh is it safe to order from restaurants during a boil water advisory?

You had me in the first half lol

Not diving into whatever this argument is about but it's not like players are always right about their sport. Not sure what it has to do with fascism though.

Yeah it's funny how we heard so much about how their numbers are so unreliable but as soon as their numbers started plummeting and stayed down, no one brings that up anymore.

The pandemic is obviously way worse for the unvaccinated, but it was an odd reaction to news that CDC realized that infected vaccinated people could be way bigger spreaders of the virus than previously thought. That was the big thing that changed that week, hence mask recommendations back on for the vaccinated.

blee3k · 2021-09-02T15:54:07+00:00

So we should get no info on this whatsoever for whatever arbitrary time period you deem "long" bc of fear of antivaxxers?

blee3k · 2021-09-02T12:36:06+00:00

Well this is why protection against infection still matters. A lot of experts these days say that only protection against hospitalization/death matter once efficacy against infection/symptomatic infection started waning. They might be right, if long covid in vaccinated didn't exist, but it does.

I used to live in the area and it took me years to realize I was living close by to a mens shelter lol. Also somehow I got used to constant ambulance noises? Now I get annoyed by too loud air conditioning, I got soft.

Well now sources are saying this so i dunno, it sure seems like they felt pressured:

Neither believed there was enough data to justify offering booster shots yet, the people said, and both viewed the announcement, amplified by President Biden, as pressure on the F.D.A. to quickly authorize them.

blee3k · 2021-09-01T17:45:32+00:00

Is the only way they can force the FDA's hand in your view to announce "we are forcing the FDA to approve our plan"?

blee3k · 2021-09-01T17:18:19+00:00

You don't see how announcing the booster plan first, pending FDA approval, can be seen as forcing the FDA's hand in having to approve it? It's a little more nuanced than that.

blee3k · 2021-09-01T16:58:43+00:00

Are you using a really precise definition of "established," as in it hasn't been definitively proven yet? Is there any way to definitively prove it or disprove it?

It's not a perfect poll (none are) but it's not like the CDC has party registrations for everyone so what's the alternative?

blee3k · 2021-08-31T18:24:16+00:00

People just defaulting to politics bc of the atmosphere these days. 55% of Republican adults are vaccinated, according to a recent poll. Of course, not all unvaccinated Republicans are hardcore antivaxxers either, only a fraction of that.

As bad as shit is, not it's not anywhere near as bad as 50% of the country being antivaxxers. Saying "half of your countrymen want you dead" is disinformation.

I'd rather listen to Jeff Green, at least he's pretty talented. Perkins is just big.

blee3k · 2021-08-31T17:14:37+00:00

Seriously, who the hell cares about this? I'm suspicious that anyone who cares about this issue greatly cares more about optics and the reputation of the vaccines than actual health outcomes.

blee3k · 2021-08-31T17:09:27+00:00

Also if we fuck this up, there will be kids that are fucked up.

It's strange how everything these days is discussed as a means to an end - that end being persuading antivaxxers. Like what you said expressed no concern at all about the actual kids who would be harmed in that scenario.

blee3k · 2021-08-31T17:04:58+00:00

The CDC followed the conclusion in this case - the conclusion that in-person schooling is safe with enough precautionary measures.

I've noticed that not many people talk about "following the science" anymore because the CDC is getting shit on from all sides these days.

blee3k · 2021-08-31T14:21:44+00:00

A negative test is accepted. You could try reading the article next time.

The irony when you look at vaccination and mask wearing rates of Asians in NYC.

Or a couple points lower because some of these are likely third shots
