Well how else do you expect them to play the Sax , fool?? ;););D;D;D;D

---

the mask seems pointless yeh

---

I have to say, that photo made me laugh. The way they are wearing it, of course it seems pointless. But that doesn’t mean that wearing masks is pointless. Obviously there are idiots in all walks of life, and the people who decided that those masks were a good idea fall into the top stream of stupidity.
I also think you can tell the attitude of a whole sector of people by that photo. Is it wear a mask because it’s a safer thing to do, or wear one just to look like you’re conforming?

I really don’t know if I feel like getting a third injection which I’m gonna guess is going to make me as sick as the second one.

Its like quicksand, B. I told ya. YOu get one, then they say its 2, then JUST LIKE I SAID ALL ALONG, the variants and strains will endlessly require upgrades/touchups/add-ons/extras/boosters, etc. Hook line and sinker.

---

Look if they say you have to have a 3rd jab, and you don’t want it, don’t fucking have it. But don’t go banging on like you’re doing it for someone else. These vaccines are to save YOU.
now, you’ll reply by saying, “I have to for my job.” Well if your job involves being around vulnerable people, then this is no different to other things you have to do that others don’t.

Dont do it. Just boost your system with zinc and vitamins/minerals.

Funny, I haven’t seen this published as a cure by the W.H.O. or anyone else for that matter.
But clearly Dr. Brock knows best! :rolleyes:

:vd:

No disrespect, but seriously get the fuck out of here with pseudo-scientific gobbldeegook.

I live with the reality of dealing with an auto-immune disease every day. You can not boost your immune system and in my case if i could, it would be catastrophic for me. Already i have to deal with the consequences of my immune system attacking healthy tissue and that is quite enough to deal with thank you. I don't use NSAIDS or Steroids or any other Pharmaceutical interventions but i am not gullible enough to believe that my body is able to prime itself to recognize a particularly nasty and novel virus without a vaccine.

The evidence of it's efficiency in both stopping serious symptoms that could land you in ICU and in reducing transmission is overwhelming.

Just doing the opposite of what is suggested is not an example of thinking for yourself.

Vitamins and minerals are scientific gobbldeegook now? Yes, avoid calcium and the minerals that help you absorb it and then let me know how many teeth you have in a few years. Of course the health benefits of vitamins and minerals is not gobbledeegook.

Brock is right in that a healthy lifestyle is one way to significantly reduce the chances of being impacted by Covid. It is no guarantee, but to be deficient in key vitamins and nutrients means you have less chance of being able to fight off anything.

"Vitamin C, the biggest con trick in town" said the scurvy lovers as their immune systems collapsed all around them.

Bum🦘🦘🦘😂

Spent yesterday in hospital because the GP thought I may have had a heart attack the night before. After loads of tests got the all clear, went home cooked dinner and then drove out and got my first vaccination. Came on the day of starting a huge campaign for a huge community photography/music/mental health project though that had a far better first day than I could ever had hoped so I will take that.

Feel like shit today and fortunately got to bail on a long standing repeat contract because of technical issues (will shoot another day). Went to bed which I never ever do. Have to take Mrs for hers tommorow so hopefully will be better. Think I should be talking to others.

Still glad I had it done.

Jesus, hope you are feeling better. After possibly having a heart attack, still going out to get the vax shows your toughness and bravery.

Scary....good news you did NOT have a heart attack and have started your vaccinations and even better you're having a big gig lined up too.

Good that your heart did not plop, but what made the doctor think you had a heart attack? Pinched nerve feeling or something like that?

I have some Covid drama. I am not massively fussed, but we will see. A chap at my wife's firm shared a car with a Plague carrier and then a week later had Plague symptoms. My wife passed by him, but no actual conversation or anything. His results come in today and she and others have been told to work from home. She said 'You may have to quarantine too'. 'Piss off, I do not interact with humans, why should I stay home?' Unlikely I will get it, but ready to put the nutrition to the test if need be.

One of the sickest girls I work with had the best response to the vaccine I’ve seen. I mean this girl gets these seizures everywhere. I’ll be talking to her one day the next she’s in the hospital making no sense for a week. Anyway both of her shots she had no side effects what so ever. She actually called me to take her somewhere a half hour after her second shot. I told her I didn’t think that was a good idea as she may be getting some side effects I told her give it at least another hour let me know how you feel. 59 minutes later she called me begging me to taker her out. Damn if the nurse said ok what the hec but I was surprised. Didn’t even bitch about a sore arm. I guess it just varies too much from person to person. Of course I had to get the four day long vertigo bullshit but screw it it did go away and now that I’m vaccinated absolutely nothing has changed except we are losing our covid pay probably end of the month. Hate to say it but I’ve gotten used to the covid bonus I won’t complain we were supposed to lose it in December it really did add up over all that time. Guess it’s time to quit and go back to being a ponderer.

A sore arm? I have read reports of people getting the vaccine here saying it hurt less than other shots. I think part of it depends on the person doing it and also how your veins are. I have awesome veins and they are easy to shoot and I generally feel little when needles go in when it is a good nurse. The less effective nurse will end up bruising you up. Not painful though. I tend to deal with pain very easily though. The kind of person who could cut off a finger joint and not flinch. A bit Lector like at times. Others with more flab and deeper veins probably have a harder time as you have to locate the rotters. I would be a brilliant junky.

Tx and Mississippi fully throwing reasonable caution to the wind is not wise at all. Opening in stages put's brains over emotions. I feel like we've gone through this before :p. Like last year. Gov Abbott would do better to ensure half his State isn't thrown into the literal dark and living in Igloos again. We've treated this virus like an inconvenient diet plan..show some discipline, do some right moves, see the numbers start to tick down and then immediately justify going back to Taco Bell on Friday. Seems we've not learned a thing.

Well miles don’t forget this is IM, intramuscular. These types of shots tend to hurt more but the first one hurt so bad it may have been something the nurse did I really can’t say. Second one which made me much sicker I had severe arm pain but it honestly disappeared in hours. The first one the pain lasted days. Typically anything shot in the vein should not have any long lasting pain. It’s really the IMs that get you.

@Spicoli couldnt agree more. Here we are in Mcallen, TX, 5 miles from the Mexican border, since December 1, 2020. The state is a wreck. Texas has logged

2,684,110 infections with 44,757 deaths

and Abbott wants 100% restaurant capacity by Monday, with NO MASKS. He tried that last Memorial Day, last Labor Day, and last Thanksgiving, with disastrous results. Lets see the infections and deaths skyrocket in about 14 days from today. Fucking nuts.

dubbo race one, had to put a bet on conspiratrix for the win. i'll spend it well

new zealand had a civil defense warning today. all the bullshit covid measures were overridden by the civil defense instructions

At this point I'm way too pessimistic that this aint close to being over. There is no way out, IMO.

We're too divided to come to a singular conclusion. When the leader of the free world told his 70+ million supporters it was no worse than the flu in public (but said it worse in private) how many of that 70+ million have the right to act on his words? :confused: I'd say all.:-\


When the leader of the free world watched Pence get vaccinated in public, Biden, yet he did it in private -back in January, how many millions have the right to say- it still is a liberal hoax? If not from their backwoods, social platform of news they want to hear.......they won't believe it, we both sadly know this, correct?

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/tru...use-in-january

Trump reportedly quietly got his COVID-19 vaccine in January
He tells CPAC to get vaccinated, but not USA, how do his supporters ignore that? They do. With ease.:eek:

When corner stores and gas stations are allowed to sell us masks with 1 of 2 labels : made in China or - may not be suitable for medical purposes, how did we get to the point, where not the previous nor current President can at least ensure we buy masks that are meant to at least minimize risk as opposed to buying because it's on the cheap, or- worse!:o Fashion statements.

I thought I had bought a camaflouged mask- as they were all out of the regulars ones...take a look at this doo-doo here:
Attachment 5786

Somewhere there is a fool actually wearing that mask.:vd:

and to add to it- There could be six distinct types of COVID-19 as of today?

But wait, let us not forget the religious zealots who add in right wing ideology as the best means-
Catholic leaders warn against ‘morally compromised’ Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine

https://www.pennlive.com/coronavirus...9-vaccine.html


So we got millions who won't wear masks because their prez said it was a liberal hoax.
We got potentially millions who won't get vaccinated because they're enthralled with groups like Qanon- claims vaccines turn children gay or trans
https://www.insider.com/qanon-conspi...ans-gay-2021-2
Yup, fagism in a vile tube.

Or potentially millions who believe: 5G chip 'hidden' in COVID vaccines?
https://sea.mashable.com/tech/13900/...a-guitar-pedal

What makes that one cool is that it turns out to be a diagram of my favorite guitar pedal - the Metal zone!;D This is the state of thinking? Just give a diagram, call it Bigbrother in a vaccine- and they not only believe it- they raise their kids to fear it. And blame liberals. Got to!
Why not?:rolleyes:


We got millions who wont get vaccinated unless it comes from Pfizer not Johnson & Johnson. as if Pfizer has a label: "Approved by Angels for Jesus ":allhail::

We got millions wearing masks that may not be doing anything other than selling a fashion statement.
We got strains, mutating likea mofo

And we got millions of people whose business, their ability to exist-have lost their jobs because they're in the service business, restuarant, bars, gyms, how do we tell them for a year plus- no one can solicit them?

I see no way out

The Plague chap turned out negative. I was getting a bit excited about it, but all that time in a car with the other Plague Carrier and nothing. Just random sick as one is sometimes. What kind of Plague does not infect the other person in the car with you? Surely no escape in a car with the windows shut.

Maybe, but I don't recall pain from the Hep vaccine shots. Or CT scan needles in the arm for an hour at a time. Guess I am just used to it all. Contrast is another one that is meant to make you feel icky, but I don't mind it. Probably the ickiest was having my eyeball scraped with a scalpel. That did make me feel off, but I didn't feel it until I got home. The eye is very sensitive. Would hate to be injected in there. Eww.

More like an Elephant sitting on your chest kid of feeling :rolleyes: The GP i think was being hyper vigilant because my Father had had at least one undetected heart attack at my age which they did not discover until they did the pre-op tests before fitting a stent. Myself and the Mrs had been unwell for a week and had both had a Covid test on Sunday but that was all clear and so I think knowing that was the case was enough to suggest being checked over. I have had plenty of angio and echo cardiograms, x-rays before so nothing too alarming and for me everything came back normal.

You can do all the common sense things you like and i have supplemented my Vitamin D for the last year (the Mrs always has) but even the best nutrition in the world is not going to give you super powers. Likelihood of infection is tied to a lot of things but particularly where in the infection cycle the spreader is. So when really ill they will shed loads which is the virus way of trying to survive by finding a new host.

Thanks mate but as you know the brother in law has just finished his chemo etc after a very nasty few months of battling cancer and he went and had his vaccine, that is brave not me. I felt like shite yesterday which he did too but just suggests a robust immune response and probably indicates that i had not previously had Covid without knowing which is reassuring as well. Feel much better today, bit of a dead arm and still fatigued but worth it to help drive the infection rate down.

No veins, they just punch it right into the muscle. I know a long time heroin user (30+ years) who is awaiting a transplant and is always complaining how shit the medics are at finding veins for tests and canulas etc "Just ask me i am an expert" he says :-X The Mrs has Botox injections in her paralyzed arm to release the spasticity and they make me wince a bit. Straight and deep into the tendons to release her bunched muscles.

Glad you are fine. ;)

Had the rapid covid test at the civic centre yesterday, as my wife is starting back at school Monday, which was not as bad I thought it would be sticking something down your throat and up your nose. The result came back in 30 minutes.

Children will have it too when they get to school and then given home test kits to use twice a week.

Shut up you Bum🦘🦘🦘😆

I still feel like we're getting mixed signals in regards to COVID. I mean Biden says go through all the mask, vaccine, distancing stuff. Fauci says shit like we might not be able to ever have indoor dining ever again, Texas & Mississippi Governors have removed mask mandates.....and illegal immigrants are allowed in and are free to travel within the US even if they pop positive for COVID.


So as a person who has had it, and had a peach of a time with it.... I just throw my hands up at this point. I don't trust these folks, I don't trust the WHO, I don't necessarily trust the CDC, I certainly don't trust Fauci who will say literally anything depending on the audience. I've had it, it wasn't bad FOR ME (and for my family) and we're all very lucky that was the case. It was different than anything I've ever had before, I don't want it again, but I'd take it over what the flu usually does.

Agree with all that, its maddening and mixed sigs. I did an experiment yesterday. I called 6 of my all-time GOAT Indian/Pakistani Buffet restaurants in Jersey City, New Jersey, and I found out they HAVENT EVEN HAD THE BUFFET for MONTHS. INdoor dining at 25% as of yesterday though. I then called 4 of my regular Buffet Restaurants here up in Irving, Texas yesterday: ALL 4 ARE OPEN AND SAY THEY NEVER SHUT DOWN THE BUFFET, EVER, SINCE THIS BEGAN. They are at 75% capacity since December 2020, and also all going to 100% capacity in 48 hours from now, MASK-FREE.

How fucking much bigger of a contrast CAN YOU GET THAN THAT???? I wish I knew what the fuck . :(:(:(

We might not get along all that often, but it's important to know where the line is drawn. I don't wish you or your family anything but the best in life, career, and health. We disagree on political stuff and that is all...maybe music, but nothing worthy of a knockdown drag out.

Glad you're ok

stay afraid of an imaginary boogeyman coward, just keep believing what you're told instead of knowing for yourself

At this point TIC even to the most skeptical you just sound like the Black Knight ;D

Just makes zero sense. It's being ignorant defiant just to be a righteous asshole. We literally tried this. A gradual roll back..absolutely needs to happen, but to go 0 to 60 with only what 8 percent ? vaccinated in the State is reckless. Not to mention the certain 1001 asshats rolling around filming themselves disrupting small businesses trying to have their viral moment.

Feel like shit today and fortunately got to bail on a long standing repeat contract because of technical issues (will shoot another day). Went to bed which I never ever do. Have to take Mrs for hers tommorow so hopefully will be better. Think I should be talking to others.

Still glad I had it done.
