People hate anticlimax. What you describe does seem broadly to be the picture. But it’s only “ok” relative to some very extreme and always implausible scenarios. It’s still not at all ok in terms of risk-benefit.

Agreed - and still quite grateful that I myself am uninjected, which speaks to where my instincts fall as far as yet-unrevealed long term effects.

It should also be observed that even if implausible, some of said scenarios still carried a sufficient risk ex-ante in combination with what would have been their impact, that what we did was reckless and highly inadvisable.

You spoke too soon, the SDUSD just re-instated mask mandates for the school system starting Monday. Go ahead, Libtards, put your duck bills back on and start yelling at your neighbors. Lock ‘em down. Crush the businesses. Go on, see what happens.

The schools never really moved on, so that’s not surprising. We’ll see if parents and kids push back. The UCSD/+Medical crowd are a lost cause.

and meanwhile here in TEXAS! we are living our normal lives. Just got back from dinner with a bunch of family at a nice family restaurant where kids play outside, they have a small country band, people hang out around the patio and talk and listen to the music and have a good time.

I need to add that not one person wearing a mask

I'm in LA.

There is a young gal, early 30s, who used to go jogging w her dog nearly every afternoon in my neighborhood.

Haven't seen her in forever, but didn't think too much about it, as people often get busy, or join a gym, or move out of state (good call).

I'm happy to say she finally resurfaced this week-- but to my shock, she was in a wheelchair. This formerly healthy 30-year old girl, who always smiled at me & seemed to take extra good care of her health, was now sitting dejected in a wheelchair, staring down at her folded hands to avoid eye contact, while her dad pushed her around the neighborhood in silence, and the dog waddled alongside them, reminiscing on all their old runs.

I didn't know what to say. I still don't. It's rude to ask, and it's rude to assume. But I wish I could give them both a big hug and offer my condolences.

Ouch, that is heartbreaking.

somebody should tell fuaci and gates about these cases ... they are isolated and have no idea whats going on in the country. come to think of it, never seen fauci in presence of other people, he is always speaking with these two flags beyond him ... lets hope he is safe, is an old man.

You also never see Bill Gates mingling amongst the filthy peasants. At least, not since he took a pie to the face outside the courthouse back in the 90s? 2000s?

It does seem pretty all right down there to me, as you say we will see how things go.

Re "More than half of the clientele at any given moment could land a job modeling underwear or as an extra in a war film." I get the underwear models, what do extras in war films look like? Is this the homeless population?

Haha - No, not the homeless. I meant more like “plausible gladiator or Viking.” You can’t throw a rock in a San Diego gym without hitting a current or former Navy Seal.

😂 okay, I get it, more beautiful people of San Diego. The war film image I got was from apocalypse now; soldiers dirty and tired fighting in the jungle. I thought, what a strange image to put with the beautiful models. But the gladiators, Captain American types make more sense. 😂

Thank you for this piece, Brian. It seems all we are left with are our own observations and anecdotal stories from others to determine what is real anymore. The world through the lense of main stream media or social media is a horror film that no amount of preparation could help us survive (literally, or just losing one's mind). When, really, everything is going to be alright.

Hopefully with all this climate change we see less deaths from Winter Vagina next year.

Yeah, but "climate change" and "weather" aren't the same thing, so, there's that.

Expand full comment

Climate and weather are the same. Climate is the sort of weather that occurs for a period of time. It's still weather. Advocates of random government oppression like to convince us the weather in a hundred years will be different than what our lying eyes see out the window at the moment. So they invent terminology to rationalize the dissonance. It convinces a few.

My climate change reference was equally facetious. California is a desert next to oceanic and atmospheric north-to-south convection streams, so climate change can only really affect moisture content / rain, not temperature. San Gabriel Valley will roast this summer just as it does every summer, because 1) Sun hot 2) it is too far inland to benefit from the Pacific Ocean air conditioner.

Climate change is being used as a scapegoat to blame these strange sudden deaths that are occurring, though.

My statement was purposely meant to sound stupid, because it is stupid. :-)

“Patients are paying high prices for insulin and should expect to receive insulin vials with adequate insulin content in return.” - Wow. Too much negative energy. IMO the authors in this case should really just chillax

Wow, that section's golden too (*edit lol at adjective reuse). Eli Lilly: "We asked our moms and they say this study was mean and stupid"
