Super Duper Negatron

Trump will win. People are that dumb. I have no faith in humanity at this point.

What is more likely? That there is a coordinated conspiracy theory orchestrated by literally every country in the world to oversell the severity of covid-19, or that sometimes a crackpot is just a crackpot? I know my vote.

It never gets old does it?

Just looked him up. Nope. Not going to bother with that one.

How is that Vegas mayor a real person?

I think the biggest evidence of that is number of hospitalizations. If Manitoba's testing numbers were so far out of line of other provinces, you would think the number of hospitalizations would be disproportionately high, which they aren't. Everyone's numbers are too low, but Manitoba is no different than anywhere else.

Collins is the worst for that. She is the Phil Lieberman of the Senate. Bonus points for everyone that gets that reference.

Yup. South Dakota is getting almost as many new cases per day than we have active. With a much smaller population.

This. I have given up hoping that there is a proverbial straw that will break the camel's back. That camel has the strongest freaking back I have ever seen. It would be admirable if it wasn't so gross.

The whole cottage thing seems like a "use your best judgement" kind of deal. If you have a cottage an hour out of a major city, I can't honestly see any issue (Falcon, West Hawk, etc). In those cases, you are likely sticking to your own cottage anyways, and most likely would end up in Winnipeg if you needed health care. For Trudeau: 25 minutes out of the city? There is no way that is what people are intending when they say "avoid the cottage". Kenora, Clear Lake, etc...those ones are trickier. Disclaimer: we have a cottage at Falcon, so I am 100% biased here.

That dominant Grey Cup run was the best thing ever. Can we all agree? Damn, that was fun. I always thought the world would end before the Bombers won another Grey Cup. Turns out I got the order backwards.

Great idea to help local businesses! https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/special/coronavirus/help-now-get-rewarded-later-569367442.html#have-your-say

Jinx post! 😉

Forgot to multiply by 100 on your death rate.

Just curious, can you point me to the literature that shows 1st world countries' health care systems being overwhelmed by influenza, to the point where they have to literally decide who will live and who will die?

double post

Wait, that isn't a parody?

I have a mom crush on Laura Linney.

While this stuff is obviously great, I can't help but get depressed at the timelines. I keep hoping for Marty McFly to step out of the Delorean with a hover board and a vaccine.

We need a face palm emoji.

Did you bother to check the date on that video? That was long before this thing blew up.

I think they classified it as travel related plus those with close contact to travel cases. Which I think is just another way of saying community.

Right on schedule. All of the spread from the "travel" cases that showed up about a week ago.

Republican Senate approves largest socialist bill in history. Irony lost on all of them.

If there was ever a doubt before (which there wasn't), this whole thing is emphasizing that Trump is not only an ignorant self absorbed piece of **** with the world view of a spoiled toddler, but also is not just the worst president in history, but one of the worst examples of a human being as well.
