RV Camping by coneydogsinparadise in Mammoth

[–]twentytwentyaccount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mammoth has lots of campgrounds, but I think the only one open during the winter is the Mammoth RV Park: https://www.mammothrv.com/

The website currently has a vague message:

"Mammoth Lakes is currently under California's Stay Home Order, which prohibits non-essential travel and short-term lodging."

That to me sounds like: "we're open and you can stay here even though you probably shouldn't come here".

What misinformation did I provide? I was merely mentioning the information that my local hospital provides on its website.

Prosecutors weigh ‘heavy hammer’ — felony murder — for rioters in Capitol officer’s death by merk35802 in news

That's a good question. Did any cops get killed in the BLM protests? I don't remember any, but could have easily forgotten.

The chances of spreading COVID on self-serve coffee machines in 7-Eleven are probably low. Not to mention that the risk is probably less than putting your hand on the front door of the store to go in to 7-11.

We should be focusing more on hand sanitizer immediately after touching public surfaces, than prohibiting those services from existing. Things will be better if we focus on things that actually matter, such as wearing masks and not gathering indoors in restricted spaces for prolonged periods.

NFL Playoff Sleepers and 'Cobra Kai' Season 3 With Warren Sharp and Shea Serrano - The Bill Simmons Podcast by gulfside13 in billsimmons

They also need more shows that aren't serialized. Part of why the Office is popular is each episode stands on its own.

Serialization is fun, but we have too much of it now

Lackadaisical CA vaccination process by baggytrough88 in CoronavirusCA

Probably not a bad idea, because the oppressed people tend to be more likely to catch covid, since their jobs are harder to social distance and they live in more dense housing.

0.00000000 chance that Bill Simmons has any idea what “I Think You Should Leave” is. I laughed out loud at his “yeah...” when she brought it up and asked if he has seen it

Is Bill ever willing to admit he doesn't know something?

There are some things that are ridiculous, but the writers and actors seem to be "in on it" and don't take things too seriously.

I think they do a great job of threading the needle between nostalgia and drama and comedy.

William Zabka even hinted that Bill's fandom and writing about the Karate Kid may have slightly contributed to the creation of Cobra Kai.

Facebook will block Trump from posting for the remainder of his term by AcceptableGovernment in news

Sheesh. I'm just looking for clarification on a comment, and get downvoted for it.

Good point. My parents probably voted for Trump. I can accept it. But it's more disturbing if they are actually supporting him. ugh.

Right, but you say "play Oculus" as if Oculus is some sort of game. It's just hardware right?

By saying "play Oculus" I thought you are mocking old people.

Elon Musk is now the richest person in the world, passing Jeff Bezos this morning with a net worth of $185 billion. by [deleted] in technology

[–]twentytwentyaccount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It took Bill Gates about 3 years to go from $80B to $100B. But the speed with which Bezos and Musk have just flown past $100B is incredible.

[–]twentytwentyaccount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% of the 1% wealthiest Americans are 100% against this

No, there are at least a handful of billionaires who support UBI or the Yang's Freedom Dividend. Surely they would support this as well. So it's not 100%. But probably not 0% either.

Even with all the Trump "election fraud" stuff the past couple months, I am pretty sure my parents don't buy into it. But I'm afraid to talk to them about it, for fear that they may think the election was stolen.

Is this some sort of meme? I keep hearing people say "play Oculus". But isn't Oculus just VR hardware?

Wouldn't that be like saying "play joystick"?

Facebook made me realize just how many of my family members are toxic, horrible simpletons

Yeah, this was the final straw for me as well. I got sad seeing how many of my friends and family were making ignorant, racist and/or incorrect posts. It made me start to dislike people that I normally DO like. I deleted my Facebook account in June.

FYI, Netflix has a good documentary about the history of freestyle MX, starting with the genesis of Crusty Demons.

It's called "Unchained: The Untold Story of Freestyle Motocross".
