Of the 111 outbreak cases, 105 were unvaccinated, three were partially vaccinated, two had an unknown status, and one case was fully vaccinated.

The court will order those things to be paid. Her actually getting the money is an entirely different matter.

You can post it if you want. Sorry for the reddit link. The copy I saw was on imgur but search just brought up the reddit one.

It’s going to be a bad flu year. Cases are much higher than normal in the UK, Canada, Japan and China and they’re rising at a steep rate in the US. If you haven’t already, get vaccinated. It may not prevent you from getting the flu, but should reduce the severity. And even if you’re okay with getting sick, spreading the germs enable it to reach the very young, the elderly, and the immunocompromised.

I saw a post yesterday from some SAHM with two young kids, who’s influencer channel is apparently filled with tradwife shit about supporting your husband in all his works, etc. And she’s crying because her husband wants a divorce, has cut off her credit cards, she doesn’t have any money of her own, doesn’t have any credit of her own, she hasn’t worked in 15 years and has no idea how she’s going to support herself.

What level magnification are you getting, and is there much distortion when using it to read (or to examine objects)? The only thing I know about Fresnel lenses are lighthouses!

Texas, the One Star state.

I watched it twice, but found it to have limited re-watch ability and, if they keep the format, I’m not sure how well it’ll do in re-runs.

The thing with most dramas is that you watch relationships develop over a period of months and years. Here, you watch the relationships “develop” over a period of 17 hours, which really isn’t a long period for changes to happen: they have to establish the base relationship, establish the reasons for the change, work through some of the ramifications, and bring it to a (semi)satisfactory conclusion. If they do that with staff too much, you get melodrama. If you do that with patients too much, it becomes shallow and repetitive: here’s a person, you should care about them, they have this problem, you should care about that, here’s a resolution and now you’ll never see them again.

My understanding for series 2 is that some of the original cast is leaving and some new people coming in (and it’ll take place a year later, with everyone moving up a year in medical school). So for returning characters, there’ll be a big gap in their lives and they’ll have to reference “events” that occurred in that gap, but they can’t do too much talking about it. For new characters, they have to do the whole character introduction/care about me, balancing that with both the returning characters and the patients.

Also, in their drive to have have emotional impact, they have a very high body count: when I did my re-watch, I counted 17 deaths, an average of one per hour during that shift.

I enjoyed the show, and I fully intend to watch series 2; I just didn’t find it as re-watchable as you did, and I suspect it won’t do well in syndication. (How well did 24 do in syndication, anyway?)

I beg to differ: spez has ruined reddit for everyone.

Thank you for your comment, and welcome to my blocklist.

The story notes that the pool was near in size to the car. That would mean that, regardless of water pressure, you wouldn’t be able to open the doors. My next try would be the windows but it’s possible that it was such a tight fit that they wouldn’t be able to get out the windows either.

My next option would be to pull down the back seat, exit into the trunk, and use the interior trunk release to exit the trunk. However, that also may not have worked, depending on whether the car’s weight was on the trunk (preventing you from exiting the trunk), or whether there was enough room along the back or sides of the trunk (preventing you from making your way to the surface).

My final option would be to try to kick out the windshield and exit there. I’m sure many people would try it earlier; my assumptions are that the weight of the engine would be holding the front of the car closer to the bottom of the pool; that momentum carried the front of the car close to/into the edge of the pool, limiting space to exit that way; that front airbags may make the exit awkward; and that a possibly shattered windshield and crumpled front of the car make exiting through the windshield a more dangerous route.

Other than those options, I’m not sure what you could do.

The Nazis used to have arrest quotas too.

Lol on the kale. I like the way my farm’s setup works. You choose and pack your own box of vegetables so you can get what you want; like sometimes I want small carrots for snacking and salads, and sometimes I want hearty carrots for stews, etc. So there’ll be a list when you come in, like (this is all random):

• 1 pint of cherry/grape tomatoes
• 2 heirloom tomatoes
• 1 head lettuce
• 1 bag kale OR bok choy OR arugula
• Any 2 from eggplant OR squash OR zucchini Etc.

Which is a pretty nice way to do it. Also, while I’m not a huge kale fan, I’ve actually learned his to make some fairly decent kale chips in the microwave and they’re a cheap and healthy snack!

My main pain point is (of course!) lettuce month - the first month of the growing season, when the majority of what you’re getting is leafy green stuff. And the first box, your just SO happy for fresh vegetables, you’re like YES!! But then you have to eat your way through 3/4 bushels of leafy green stuff for another four weeks, and by the end of it, you’re just like, “Ugh! Not *again”!" Aside from stir fries and frittatas, my one blessing has been the discovery of lettuce soup. It’s not a particularly great soup, but it’s definitely edible, uses up a bunch of greens and (best of all) it can be frozen!

[I also welcome additional suggestions for using up large amounts of green stuff, with particular eagerness for anything that can be frozen or otherwise stored.]

You don’t have not-have an opinion on the US healthcare system, you just have to claim that your opinion on the healthcare system won’t affect your ability to reach an impartial verdict.

Oh, she’s lovely!

I bought a farm share (CSA). The farmer gets paid up front so they aren’t dependent on banks and the weather; I get a box of food every week during the growing season. No middlemen, fresher produce.

Tribeca is a neighborhood in Manhattan. Everything in Manhattan is more expensive, simply because of the cost to rent the store. [Not denying there are other factors, but that will be a big one, simply because Manhattan cannot grow outward any more.]

Rochester is a large city in the north of New York State, on the banks of Lake Ontario. It has plenty of room to grow out - and it’s surrounded by rural counties. Eggs are cheaper there simply because there are more chickens and less humans than there are near Manhattan.

Again, there are unfortunately other factors in play. But surely they could’ve used a better example than the price of eggs in two such disparate parts of the state?
