Re: Vaccines and therapeutics

Good news, indeed. But I really wish we could ban use of the term "game changer" in connection with the pandemic. It's been used a million times and we're still playing the same damn game. :cry:

Re: Joy

On the podium at his rallies, Trump has a right to make joyous dancing-like motions when he perceived that he was successfully pulling the wool over everyone's eyes. I never saw joy in Trump. I saw smirking, boasting, casual lying, denigrating and inauthenticity. I never saw joy. Maybe that's why i...

Re: And the Impotence Came Crashing In

That's a bit much (the bold part). They are merely asking to look into the questionable occurrences that happened in the swing states. I bet if Trump loses his legal battles, he will concede. He would be a fool not to as he would start losing his base. Trump doesn't want to lose his popularity with...

Re: Biden Takes Georgia; Violence on Horizon

Meanwhile, from that one side that never makes death threats: The Republican City Commissioner of Philadelphia said his office is receiving death threats for counting votes during a "60 Minutes" interview on Sunday. "From the inside looking out, it feels all very deranged," Al Schmidt said in an in...

Joy

[M]en are, that they might have joy. 2 Nephi 2:25 in this life I shall have joy.... 5 Moses 10. (Spoken by Adam.) One of the things I really liked about being LDS was the notion that the purpose of people was to have joy. Not just joy in heaven, but joy right here on earth. I hadn't thought much abo...

Re: And the Impotence Came Crashing In

At this point, the Trump faithful believe that there was election fraud and that Trump actually won. However, the faithful will leave if he cannot make his case and he will then concede. I don’t think so. There’s a relationship in play here. On one side are folks who do not have a functional relati...

Re: Biden Takes Georgia; Violence on Horizon

I just listened to an episode of Hidden Brain that explores the role of "hate radio" in the Rwandan genocide and attempts to use radio to change people's attitudes and behaviors in its aftermath. https://www.npr.org/2020/07/13/890539487/romeo-juliet-in-rwanda-how-a-soap-opera-sought-to-change-a-nati...

Re: A silver lining in a dark cloud of socialism

ajax, can you give me an example of this ‘equality of results’ nightmare that you are now pitching as the soon-to-be new normal in Joe Biden’s America © ? Is this, like, when everyone gets to use a paved road that was built using tax dollars? Or are there better examples of this forced equality ? W...
