- Polio cases in Africa linked to new oral vaccine
A quick google check shows the oral one isn’t approved for use in the US, which has used the very effective shot version since 2000. Given it’s cheaper and requires fewer doses, makes sense it’s used in more impoverished regions. Key issue seems to be when it gets to spread in under-immunized populations, like that area of NY, and gets to mutate…that’s when it’s a net negative. Of course it wouldn’t be a larger scale issue if those folks woulda gotten the right, needle-delivered vaccine and it never spreads in the first place.- FL Principal resigns after parents complain about pornographic Michelangelo statue
The whole side street behind our house was lined with signs for that bullshit One Family group…even though 2/3rds of them send their kids to private schools. The mom in one of the families that does send their kids to RRISD is on all the extra curricular stuff…when I did Watch Dogs (dads at school for a half day), I half expected for her to hand me a bible and abstinence flyers for my sons 3rd grade class. I have zero issue with anyone who takes their religion seriously, just don’t cram it into my kids or their schools. Of course it’s the same group who crow about books, art and anything else they don’t agree with as ‘forcing wokeness’ so they can fuck right off in general.- What the fuck is wrong with you, Austin?
Yeah I didn’t get all the Leslie love either…understanding he was completely unavoidable downtown and somewhat of an icon due to the cross dressing, dude was generally disgusting. I was walking back to the Brazos garage on fifth/sixth in like 2005 when I tripped over him in an alcove, wigged out on something and drumming on a bucket. Would also yell racist shit and stumble around trying to get money…often late when I was just trying to get my death metal / Hoeks on before cabbing home.- Ted Lasso (Apple+)
Wait…some of y’all didn’t like Beard After Dark? I love that episode. In a sea of bland horseshit where even The Simpsons is mostly unwatchable…I really enjoyed that episode. It was a fun bit of character development and departure from an often formulaic cast. Even when the rest of this show gets a little bland and predictable, Beard remains a highlight along with Roy and Higgins.- The Holland Grill

My wife was complaining that nothing happened as well. It’s a setup episode, putting all the pieces in place and defining the story arcs right off the bat. That doesn’t bother me if they follow through with it…esp as a few actors have said that it was written as a 3-season story to tell. After watching Your Honor, Last of Us, and other dark shit…just glad to have something a little more light to watch. Hope they close it out nicely.- 2023 Big 12 Baseball Thread
Well Tech just GS’d to a 6-1 lead, and my brief optimism was instantly destroyed. Life of a Poke- 2023 bank failures
The atm at Walgreens was out of order today, so I assume the great bank failures have started since FDIC hasn’t insured 100% of deposits yet. Time to stock up on canned beans, sardines and milk duds, the revolution is at hand.- 2023 Big 12 Baseball Thread
Well they won’t sweep us. Had a comfortable lead most of the game, and won 9-4 today. Took a minute to find the optimist hat, but if it took 6 errors to blow a late lead and we won today…may be able to easily take the rubber match tomorrow. Who am I kidding, it’s baseball. Transitive properties do not exist.- Origin of Covid-19
So China had this info but was hiding it? The timing of this seems…convenient…given recent discussions about the lab leak theory. Makes you wonder what else the they’ve been hiding.- Elon Musk: Nazi traitor piece of shit [Confirmed]

Holy shit thank you! Drinking to enhance vs drinking to escape. I like that. I never had a problem with the former, but nearly sunk myself with the latter. Looking back it was all stressors…grad school, tough baby, associated marriage stress. Imagine that drinking made it worse…what a concept. On a related note, we just visited some family who have been through the wringer with the husband suffering a few years under leukemia before a transplant last year permanently ended it. His wife looked rough, understandably, but I instantly recognized myself from 3+ years back…the chubby, pimpled, reddish blotted face of someone who drank daily (or close to it).- 2023 NCAA Baseball

My kids usually want a lunch box on Friday (pizza) day…I’m trying to tell them that square pizza is a rite of passage for public school. Next time I’ll threaten that their next field trip is to Matamoros- My Bariatric Surgery Journey
Yeah that’s a great point, our man here may not be wise to get stoned then try drinking four shakes while everything heals. Weirdly I don’t get super munchies until I’m coming down…my progression goes: cold/shaky (coming up) -> silly -> horny -> hungry. I also tend to stay up late whereas my wife straight passes out after we (usually) get busy. But when I do get munchies I go insane. Shits the next day are like- My Bariatric Surgery Journey
My wife had the sleeve done and edibles are fine. Constant nicotine narrows your arteries as you know, occasional THC won’t be an issue. I like to have a couple drinks, pop an edible then ‘coast’ that way…fun, relaxing, no hangover and so long as you don’t keep drinking it won’t be wild. Also, weighing yourself everyday may be counterproductive. Water, shit, etc will have it wiggling up/down driving yourself mad.- Lunch Lady bangs one of her students
