Need a vaccine card to leave the house, but no ID to elect the government, it would be hilarious if it weren't literally destroying the country.

Government power is inherently corrupt. Everyone wants their government to step in and implement their pet preference, and very few people are willing to say: the less a government does, the better.

Edit: apparently I'm blocked from replying below, so: Saying that people who disagree aren't knowledgeable is the biggest thing making politics so hateful today. Small government works great. The smaller the better. For me, that's no dumb abortion laws or carbon taxes.

Well until they know what it is, they don't know. Didn't the CDC say it was psychosomatic? Seems a bit widespread for that to be true.

Ravaging the population? It's this exaggeration of the disease that I'm saying we should stop. Just accept it like it's a weird sequel to the flu and move on.

IDK, their main aquarium is the entire ocean, and they still come up on land.

I'm a professor and we're seeing drops in enrollment and huge drops in work being done, learning, and creativity. We need to say, hey it's been two years in March, we're done. March Onward, or something. No more.

Hah, this comment dropped 6 points in less than a second. This article will be flagged soon.

Oh man, I wish. For me even the biggest names barely have more than 3 or 4 songs worth listening to.

Netflix's user experience has always been bad, and it's worse than ever. Engineers also don't make content, so if they're doing any good, I guess it's backend.

You're insane if you think that either those nations would take any real action OR that the US couldn't take them all at once without breaking a sweat. The scope and quality of military power and technology wielded by the US is astounding. Probably just the Navy could take those countries.

You can both understand that this is a serious, novel disease and also understand that the way those in authority responded was done to create an emergency with specific outcomes.

Yep whether it's empty or full a high rent building sells for more.

The original intention was to have much less power consolidated at the Federal level, with each state essentially a nation, even more free than in the EU today. Sadly power consolidates until it implodes.

You mix the dialog louder for the entire piece, and every other sound in the middle. No extreme highs, no extreme lows. General compression with dialog forward choices.

Yeah, I have no interest in surround sound, I just want to hear the words. I specifically don't want to be rumbled by gunshots and explosions.
