justice98 Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 I wonder how much people make who all the sudden got in the mask business. Now, the market is flooded, but back in Jan/Feb when there was a run on them and they started to be hard to come by, somebody probably made some nice coin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of these GOPers aren't stupid, they just play stupid on TV. It remains to be seen if GOP will turn on Trump before November to save as many seats as they can. I hope they do to crater the support of the remaining die hards of their base. I wish it was as simple as Texas government wanting to save lives, but their credibility is shot on that and needs to be earned back (which I don't think it can, leading to possibility for double downs). As long as that base is shrinking instead of growing, it's going to become more about waiting them out. This convo is already happening with the Police bill house just signed, it's about to be July, and already talking about waiting until GOP is out the way to pass what they want. I don't agree with waiting until GOP is swept out of office to try and get anything passed. We need bills passed more then ever right now, so my hope is this blue state problem red state problem stops and looked at as an every state problem finally. Which is where we needed to be months ago, better late then never, now im sounding idealistic again. Edited June 27, 2020 by Renegade7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as they can stack the courts, that's all they care about now. That also means that Democrats need to pass all these relevant bills now.

If ever there was ever a reason to get rid of political parties, it would be to get rid of positions like Senate majority leader. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purbeast Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 I just went to the clinic because I have had this headache for like 3-4 days that won't go away really even with various medicines. Other than that I feel like fine. I have taken my temp often throughout these and once had 99 temp and then today had a 99.1. I then tried my left ear and it was 99.7. I was getting different readings depending on which ear. But this thermometer like first 2 times are always like 98.0 or 98.2, like it has to warm up. So I don't know how reliable it is. Then I went to the clinic and they took my temp and it was 98.8. This was taken orally. When I got home I took it and it's still showing like 99.0 in right ear and 99.7 in left ear, then 98.8 immediately after in left ear. So who knows. Anyways it feels A LOT like when I had lyme disease the first time in 2018 so I'm wondering if it's like a flair up. They took a lyme panel today but also asked if I wanted a covid test too since I was there. I opted to take one. It was not nearly as bad as I thought it would be. I kind of psyched myself out and then when I took it, it was uncomfortable but not nearly like I expected. I thought it would be like a 10/10 as far as uncomfortable but was more like a 2/10 or 3/10. And they hold it there for like a 10 count. I will hear back early next week about both of them. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF your mask is N95, and IF you have a bunch of them (they're supposed to be single use, generally), and IF you know how to wear it properly (it requires training), and IF you also cover your eyes with something, like a face shield, then it will "probably" keep you safe. And yet, there are still lots of people that are too untrained, too poor, and/or too unable too access a sufficient supply of N95 masks (especially if everybody suddenly tries to get them), and lots of them still have to go out (especially the poor). They don't deserve to get sick/die because some won't wear a simple cloth face mask. I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and say that your position is naive. Naive? Don't think so. The conversation was about the efficiency between N95 and N100. I said I happen to have one, well actually 4. I rotate them. The way to get more use out of a mask is to spray rubbing alcohol at 70% strength. You can use it again the next day. As for the poor, yes it is a damn shame that Trump didn't sent a box of N95 masks to everyone's house along with the money. He was too busy trying to figure out how to save his ass in the polls ratings and the stock market. Edited June 28, 2020 by zskins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonez3 Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 (edited) 'I told you so' is not really a good tact. But when lives are on the line and the economy that we all are concerned about depends on it, 'I told you so' might be appropriate. Gov. Cuomo did give 'I told you so' today. Florida, Arizona, Texas and other governors (maybe even the president) should offer a 'yea, you were right'. We're all 1 team, lets get the best playbook out there.

Naive is me attempting to view your comments in the best possible light. Those people have already decided they don't want to wear a mask and it goes against their freedom and rights. Are you going to hold a gun to their head and tell them to wear one? I didn't like their stance and said in that case just let them get infected and die and there will be less idiots on this planet while the rest of us wear a mask (N95 was just an example in that conversation). Do you want me to shed a tear for those assholes? You are not going to get any sympathy from me on that. The only people who are naive and cavalier are the ones who refuse to wear a mask.
