The Gaming Den

Gi: Linda sounds like a name that could be applied to a Karen.

I didn't hear about December, but I heard they found a death in January. I don't know the credibility of this source, or the credibility of the work it claims is being done. Is there anything to this? https://www.thestar.com.my/news/regional/2020/05/09/french-hospital-says-first-suspected-covid-19-c...

This is interesting https://www.cnn.com/2020/05/04/health/france-coronavirus-december-death-intl/index.html If there is any more to this, I can't help but wonder how long until the two-minutes hate gets directed away from bat-eaters and towards frog eaters. Wow. If you read the source piece, a dude...

This is the version of the story I read: https://www.cnn.com/2020/05/04/us/michigan-security-guard-mask-killing-trnd/index.html It's fucking stupid. And the stupid state rep in Ohio . And the pipe bomb dude in Colorado with a source article that tries to make the guy sound insane by mentioning he'd ...

I have fallen for Chinese propaganda. The video is cute and hilarious.

I'm calling May 10th as the day when the US surpasses the number of deaths of the rest of the world.

Wearing a mask at the store is now a fucking political statement. Someone actually said to me that it wasn't going to protect me, so I shouldn't bother wearing one. When I responded, "I don't wear it to protect me. I wear it to protect you," they just shut up.

If I recall correctly, NK's elections are not for a Kim. They vote for their legislature and local peeps, but there's not really competition. As far as I can tell, they have an election to justify the "Democratic" in the country's name.

Why do YouTube and Facebook have to censor videos of misinformation, but cable broadcasters and satellite TV providers don't?

I would not eat that. It's basically lemon jello. But it does look cool.

I'm sorry. I wasn't clear. Americans are remarkably complacent when it comes to dealing with bad treatment. Paying $2.13 for a tipped wage. Lack of basic health care. Undermining unions and forcing people into the gig economy. That doesn't touch repealing EPA protections. Or the erosion of voting ri...

I've been saying since the start of this that coronavirus is the revolution we won't throw for ourselves. It remains to be seen if it succeeds because America doesn't seem like it's gonna help much.

Theoretically, if we all social distance really hard, could the coronavirus die out on its own?

SM Entertainment put on - essentially - a pay-per-view concert via the internet instead of cable. The set-up to get this onto my TV was necessarily complicated because I just don't have very up-to-date equipment. But I figured it out! Getting to see one of my favorite K-Pop groups (Super M) without ...

Having discovered that disinfectants are effective at killing the virus, it's not unreasonable to ask why we don't use the disinfectants as medicine to cure people who have contracted the virus. But normal people ask that question when they are in kindergarten. Asking that question in the middle of...

Yeah. That's why I had to look it up when I heard the President had talked about injecting detergent to kill the virus. That's not exactly what he said - more like doctors should look into creating a detergent to clean the lungs of those who have the virus - but there're people out there dumb enough...

Two pet cats test positive

Could the fact that cats are catching it be indicative of the disease's origins?

K... BC and Washington are good friends. We want to be like them. We love the idea of a Cascadia state that includes the western half of Washington and Oregon (down to about Eugene, further south is like a whatever). Idaho probably won't join us because they're way conservative. They would probably ...

I read this shit to my son who is completely over people actually thinking this way. Oh my god.

I keep seeing the US split. I hope the chances of that are way smaller than what my imagination is creating. There are going to be states (South Dakota, Florida) that suck at this. And they're going to have cases long after the west coast slows way down. Which is why I asked my first question becaus...

What are the chances that the US breaks up because of this?

Me: WWE is an essential service.
Gi: By that logic, Spencer's is an essential service.
Me: The dick boob noodle shop?
Gi: Yeah. It provides vital masturbation supplies which keep people at home.

My pain scale totally shifted when I had to get stitches in the bottom of my foot and the local wasn't effective. That became a ten, and shit like stubbing my toe - previously maybe a three - turned into a one.
