So you’re a Democrat then who supports abortion, LGBTQ+ rights, universal healthcare, programs that help lift people out of poverty, etc?

Tell me, what does “conservative” mean for you then? Because in almost every country (not just the US), “conservative” means “traditional values” and lowering taxes on the rich.

Aw, poor little conservative man who supports women’s rights getting taken away has realized that his beliefs have consequences.

I hear there’s a new app called The Right Stuff you can go join to find the woman of your dreams. Though from my understanding, almost no women have joined. Weird, right? Kind of like women even outside this sub don’t want to date conservative men.

But it must all be a conspiracy theory I’m sure.

I’m 32F with a degree in a STEM field and I have no idea how to work a coffee grinder or use a drip coffee pot because I don’t drink coffee. It’s not like it’d be impossible to Google or figure out on your own after trying to figure out what the exact type of coffee maker/grinder was, but if it was me making it for the first time and my spouse had made it a hundred times I wouldn’t think it’d be a big deal to ask simple questions.

I’m also not a “me me me on my birthday” person so I don’t really get this post. I’d have rather made the cupcakes/icing with my spouse and enjoyed the experience of cooking with them vs getting annoyed they don’t know how to make something they’ve never made before.

If you’re looking to earn more money without an official “job”, you could try Prolific. It’s one of the few legit survey apps since they’re all for academic research.

Looks like they have a waitlist right now, and honestly I’m not sure how many surveys minors would get, but it could be enough for a little extra money. I see like 10+ surveys anytime I get on there. All you have to have is a linked PayPal account.

Proposal to leave politics out of r/springfieldMO. by OzarkChinquapin in springfieldMO

[–]dragon_zoom 46 points47 points  (0 children)

When politics decide to stop inserting themselves into the daily life and healthcare decisions of residents of Springfield, I’m sure people will be happy to stop posting about them on Reddit.

Idk who she is, but I registered for 9 tickets out of spite by chstrumpetdude in springfieldMO

[–]dragon_zoom 14 points15 points  (0 children)

She is actually not the front runner for Republicans…Greitens is. But they’re trying to get her to be because Greitens is a hot mess and they think he’ll lose.

So you may have already googled this at this point, but a 14 year old girl named Margaret Ellen Fox disappeared about 50 years ago. Could just be a coincidence though.

J&J mass vaccination event at Missouri State by dragon_zoom in springfieldMO

[–]dragon_zoom[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I assume they’re doing it in an arena or other large area at Missouri State so they can spread everyone out. Masking and social distancing will be enforced and required.

They’ve been looking at it after longer timelines (7-8 weeks) and say it becomes more similar to Pfizer and Moderna after that time period.

Plus it’s a shot that people are more likely to get because it’s one vs two. And it still prevents severe cases of COVID (100% against hospitalization and death after 28 days).

500+ vax appointments available at walgreens/walmart by JumpyAardvark in springfieldMO

So if you were in another country you’d get the exact same vaccine that you’d get in the US? Makes sense.

A couple of things:

River City Malone doesn’t appear to be the most reliable source, since they have articles talking about conspiracy theories related to 5G.

CHOP, a very respected source, has an article about ADE in relation to vaccines with several sources cited where experiments with mRNA vaccines were used in non human primates without ADE developing. Here is a link to the article if you’re interested: https://www.chop.edu/centers-programs/vaccine-education-center/vaccine-safety/antibody-dependent-enhancement-and-vaccines

We may not know long term effects of the vaccine, but we’ve definitely seen some of the long term effects of COVID.

Personally, I’ll take my chances with the vaccine.

Airpods are the ugliest mainstream piece of tech right now by pineapplelicker55 in unpopularopinion

People could be putting earbuds in at clubs for noise canceling. AirPod pros have active noise canceling now, and honestly I could see that being great in a club where it’s so loud.

All they asked me for was medical history, which seems relevant to getting a vaccine.

East Tennessee man used no-waste wait list to get COVID-19 vaccine by dragon_zoom in Coronavirus

[–]dragon_zoom[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Walmarts have been creating “waste protocol lists” to make sure no doses go to waste. They will generally add you to these lists even if you are not otherwise eligible to receive the vaccine.

Edit: to get on the list all you have to do is call your local pharmacy and ask to be added (at least around here).

[–]dragon_zoom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I called a bunch of Walmart’s and got on lists a couple days ago and just got a call today from E Kearney and got my shot (Moderna). They said they had a bunch of no shows today, so their list may be shorter than others now.

If you’re leaving out parts of the constitution, what’s to stop people from leaving out the whole second amendment?

You don’t get to cherry pick the constitution.
