Oh, abso-freakin-lutely!To be fair, in general we are doing such a craptastic job of it that the claim that we are vigilant at all, much less constantly, is verging on laughable.
I’ve been watching- and occasionally sharing- articles about campus life & C19. I didn’t have high hopes...and I did’t go to a “party school”.On the other hand, some people just aren't even trying at all...
I was hoping that the positivity rate on campus would stay vaguely low through Thanksgiving. (Granted a lot of these folks have probably already been skipping testing if they have mild symptoms).
Oh, abso-freakin-lutely!
Another data point to consider for those dealing with C19 deniers: our oven died after 22 years this weekend. So we’ve been shopping for a new one the last few days, and we have found there is a shortage. Of ALL brands, foreign and domestic. C19-related manufacturing slowdowns are causing parts shortages and assembly line slowdowns.
The odds that every appliance retailer, manufacturer, and/or their parts maker in the US market is conspiring to affect the election are so improbable that it isn’t even worth considering,
This stuff predates the internet, as a kid there was a book named Chariot of the Gods. Basically Aliens built everything.
It's people who are smart enough to think but not smart enough to say I don't know or academics who don't know either and don't want to admit it so they make something up and later on they get challenged and it's a conspiracy about aliens/who built what etc.
There is an racist element to it as well. Because... note that all the structures claimed to be made by aliens... are not European*. If you aren't white, you obviously couldn't have built it yourself. You needed alien help.
*Stonehenge being the one exception - folks still say aliens built that.
We even have instructions on pyramids and adjacent buildings describing how they made pyramids including wetting of the sand the blocks were slid on, sorry no aliens required just smart ancestors being given the credit they are due.
Not only that, but if aliens came and gave us instructions on how to build pyramids, why did they give us the wrong information which led to the bent pyramid. Seems like a space faring civilisation wouldn't make such a basic mistake.We even have instructions on pyramids and adjacent buildings describing how they made pyramids including wetting of the sand the blocks were slid on, sorry no aliens required just smart ancestors being given the credit they are due.
