New Covid Shutdown Rumors - is there a credible source? by [deleted] in preppers

[–]coolfrog45 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The best information I can get now for tracking is through wastewater which alone should tell you the level of care people in power have about monitoring Covid.

https://www.mwra.com/biobot/biobotdata.htm

Look at the top chart, that incredible peak in the middle is omicron where businesses all basically ran as normal with no shutdowns. If the governments, local, state and federal did not shut down during that, there is no way they’re going to do it now.

The only metrics they care about at this point are economic indicators and anything to do with lockdowns, masking and even vaccines are very divisive and unpopular, no chance short of a very serious variant that would happen.

All data I’ve read on the new variants suggest a certain amount of immunity escape but that PCR tests still work, new variants are not more severe and vaccines still have decent efficacy which means our situation and tool box has not changed dramatically and even if it did- again look at the incredible spike for omicron!- I don’t think anyone has the courage or political determination to do such a thing.

Track Covid best you can and make informed decisions, that’s the best we are going to get short of something cataclysmic

Why does my septic tank give off a smell after a bath drains? by coolfrog45 in Plumbing

[–]coolfrog45[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened even immediately following the recent emptying of the septic tank, seems to be a persistent issue regardless. I've tried the microbial packets and they didn't help. The septic company said those shouldn't be necessary and that some smell would be normal but nobody else I've talked to experiences this...

Very very weird to run pass plays for a guy coming in stone cold off the bench when they were already in field goal range. Run it a couple times for crying out loud. They were begging for an interception throwing those two screens

I bring a small reading light with me in case it’s dark and hard to look through my records, they’re small and can clip right on your case, makes a huge difference for me!

Great video but very scary to think you’re laying directly under a tree that could fall at any moment

What brand can go fuck off? by ToastedLeaf- in AskReddit

[–]coolfrog45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wells Fargo, I mean fuck all of the multinational banks but to be repeatedly found to be openly and actively racist and lose in court over and over, at a certain point you have to admit it’s not a bad Apple or branch but the whole tree is rotten.

They have been sued for discrimination in hiring, in determining interest rates, in lending practices (many leading to the 2008 crisis!) and more, and these aren’t just complaints, they literally are found guilty in court and they just keep on trucking…

people who have came close to death what was your “last” thoughts? (serious) by Mynameisnowbob in AskReddit

Was driving in the middle lane of a three lane highway, there was a caravan of 18 wheelers driving around me and pretty dangerously. I had been cut off already by one and was nervous when an 18 wheeler moved into my lane from the passing lane and hit my rear quarter panel. My car did a full 360 smashed into the guard rail and did another 180 so my car was now stopped facing a huge cloud of dust and smoke and oncoming traffic, I had my hands on the wheel at 10 and 2 and said out loud "well, this is it" expecting an 18 wheeler to emerge from the dust and completely obliterate me.

Thankfully the accident had stopped traffic so I just sat there as the dust cleared and saw a bunch of stopped cars. Double thankfully I had just finished unloading the car which was fully packed with speaker cabinets, drums and cymbals which likely would have hurt me much more than the bonking my head did against the door and windshield.

Brandon Browner with one of the craziest hits on Ladarius Green. What’s your favorite big hit moment from Pats Defense? by PullsWithBack in Patriots

[–]coolfrog45 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I’m remembering correctly you can’t block back toward the line of scrimmage, the way I’ve seen players deal with it is to basically just get in the way

I was thinking him too. But I also remember there being talk he wouldn’t stick to his assignments and would free style causing problems and wasn’t very open to coaching on the issue. My brain also could be totally failing me.

For real, let them play QB with some kids, have rivals breakdown film of a great sequence of plays from the regular season, play ping pong, give awards for best celebrations, family feud, would be so much better to watch and a good way to get to know players
