When they finish transferring everything, I’ll set up the party thread so everyone can celebrate and play with the new stuff to see how it all works.

It’s a case by case basis, which also includes posters posting history. It’s also why we give warnings and ban people right off the bat. You @djtexas have been given more leniency than most, but that might not last much longer at this rate.

There will be a celebration thread tonight on the new forum, where we can play with some of the new features and get use to it as we celebrate. Be there or be square. I really feel most everyone is going to like the new forum.

@morgankane01 I think here in the U.S., many are campaigning for people to get vaccinated. I’m really surprised anyone would be campaigning against vaccine and calling it “not so dangerous” at this point, especially with all the deaths and now children are being hospitalized, as well as dying, from the Delta variant. Those saying that not…[Read more]

Even President Biden is telling Repugs (gov’nor Parson of MO is one bad one that intends to let people die) to get out of the way:

“Look, we need leadership from everyone,” Biden said. “And if some governors aren’t willing to do the…

Do I sound like I care? I don’t even believe trade unions will be dumb enough to cave into not getting vaccinated against COVID-19, especially after what happened to the meat packers, who BTW are getting vaccinated, if they aren’t already.

@djtexas

Macron losing votes with push for compulsory vaccinations.

Those who are against compulsory vaccinations will probably be the ones who die from COVID-19. I say forget them and let them go without jobs or without jobs with a living wage. They don’t need to be able to easily infect others with mutated version of the virus. I also think…[Read more]

@mrmhead

Repugs and wing-nuts are now clamoring and demanding to get both doses and a booster in the same day because it’s their right, their Freedom! It’s In The Constitution!!!

What? They can’t get all three at once. That’s not how vaccination works. I knew they were stupid, but I didn’t think they were that stupid.

As my Oma used to say:” Ordnung muss sein!”

Tradusca por favor, en ingles. Not auf deutsch.

I’ve read it and just because I don’t quote from it, doesn’t mean I haven’t read it. Obviously you have not read it or you’d be willing to discuss it.

@thatoneguy It’s unlikely, but they are concerned about the Lamda variant. In lab tests, it’s managed to get around the vaccine. I don’t know how they tested this, because I’ve only read this one article on it.

I have a Wash Po reporting on Biden and eviction prevention: https://www.washingtonpost.com/us-policy/2021/08/03/white-house-evictions-democrats/?wpmk=1&wpisrc=al_news__alert-economy–alert-politics–alert-national

Stop twisting words, because you may find yourself banned.

@djtexas you are either again quoting Faux news or alike source OR you are misquoting again. Either way, I’m pretty sure that isn’t what was said.

Hashtag occupy Congress.

Why? I see no reason to commit treason. President Biden is doing a very good job- better than the dotard did, that’s for sure.

Hello darkstar. Glad to meet someone from India who isn’t affected by COVID directly. I’m just sorry to hear that it’s very bad there. Don’t be shy about jumping in and joining conversations.

@djtexas No, that is not what @lausten said. He said, and I quote (copy and paste):

As I’ve said many times:

Vulgarity is a difficult term to define. I watch for patterns of behavior. If someone used “boo-boo-head” in every post, I’d ban them. If I see a rare use of something like SOB, that is a completely different story. That said, it would s…

You just got an answer from both mods, so yes, that’s our answer… for now.

@djtexas Now you’re going back a page and screaming foul now, because you couldn’t win with anything else?

@mitch70

I just got vaccinated yesterday and so far it hasn’t affected me yet in any way (crossed fingers).

I’m so glad you did. If it’s Pfizer or Moderna, it’s the second one you feel, but some people (moi) not as bad as others (my husband). About 24 hours later, I had some joint and muscle aches, with swollen glands under the arm that g…[Read more]
