Anti-Maskers Creating Mid-Air Violence




I don’t wish this death on anyone, but if someone has to die this way, I’m glad it’s not someone who did the right thing.
A reader sent me the photo here, noting: A very rare occurrence, the sun and the moon are visible at the same time in the horizon. This phenomenon is known as Selenelion. 
Now Trump is demanding a recount in Texas, a state he won? Can’t we have some level of rationality here?
And taxpayers are eating the cost of all this?

Yes, this is destroying his state, but that’s the price Floridians have to pay for living there and electing him governor.

I think anyone would grant that applying science to moral philosophy is not a sound undertaking. For example, using science to evaluate the actions of people in certain societies as “good” or “bad” is going to be fruitless. There are countless similar examples. As shown below, the movie “Dead Poets’ Society” pokes fun at an academic who tries to quantify the excellence of a poem. (more…)

I would say that questioning the consensus reached by thousands of scientists who have spent their entire careers researching and publishing peer reviewed papers on a certain subject is, in fact, stupid.
Nobody cares what I think about anthropology. That’s because I don’t know anything about it, just like this guy knows nothing about virology.

COPENHAGEN, Denmark — After 548 days with restrictions to limit the spread of COVID-19, Denmark’s high vaccination rate has enabled the Scandinavian country to become one of the first European Union nations to lift all domestic restrictions.
More than 80% of people above the age of 12 have had the two shots.
“I wouldn’t say it is too early. We have opened the door but we have also said that we can close it if needed,” Soeren Riis Paludan, a professor of virology with the Aarhus University in Denmark’s second largest city, told The Associated Press.
As of midnight, the Danish government no longer considers COVID-19 “a socially critical disease.” Health Minister Magnus Heunicke said Aug. 27 that “the epidemic is under control” but warned: “we are not out of the epidemic” and the government will act as needed if necessary.
The vaccination rate is:
Inversely proportional to the number of per capita crackpots in the country, and
Directly proportional to the degree to which the country’s citizens honestly care about one another.
A reader answers: The myth is that Trump thinks he won.Exactly. If he thought he’d won, he wouldn’t be telling state election officials, “find me 11,780 votes.”
He wouldn’t be plotting with his attorney on how Pence needed to say that the results of seven states is in doubt.
He’s evil, but he’s not delusional (at least that’s what I believe).
