That red beard of his will forever keep us on this throne of blood. :no:
Who said the Chinese don't have a sense of humor? This is true stand-up gold, I'm telling you. :D
That act would make a killing in New York City.
On a more scientific note:
https://www.cambridge.org/core/journ...671DC0C05D5AD0Quote:
Greater endorsement of CTs [Conspiracy Theories] has been observed in people who engage in less analytical and more intuitive reasoning modes (Barron et al., 2018; Georgiou, Delfabbro, & Balzan, 2019; Lantian, Bagneux, Delouvée, & Gauvrit, 2021; Swami, Voracek, Stieger, Tran, & Furnham, 2014). Reasoning biases observed in delusions, which are distinct yet related phenomena, may also be relevant (e.g. Bronstein, Everaert, Castro, Joormann, & Cannon, 2019). While delusions involve a narrower definition of counterparties and are more personally targeted, what they share with CTs is combining seemingly unrelated phenomena into meaningful patterns even if there are none.
Delusion-associated biases such as jumping-to-conclusions (JTC bias; e.g. Dudley & Over, 2003), liberal acceptance (LA bias, a lowered decision threshold; Moritz & Woodward, 2004), bias against disconfirmatory evidence (BADE; Woodward, Buchy, Moritz, & Liotti, 2007) and an excessive confidence in a belief with no ‘possibility of being mistaken’ (PM; Garety et al., 2005; So et al., 2012) might be also associated with the endorsement of coronavirus-related CTs.
[...]
Our hypotheses that reasoning aberrations and paranoia are associated with coronavirus-related conspiracy beliefs were largely supported. People endorsing such beliefs tend to collect less information before making a decision (JTC bias), make judgments with low-to-moderate certainty (LA bias), and adhere more to an already held specific belief, even if this turns out to be invalid (BADE) compared to people who endorse these beliefs to a lesser degree.
^^Or to quote Forrest Gump: Stupid is as stupid does.
Yeah, yeah, that's what an Illuminati agent from the deep state would say :rolleyes:

Anthony Fauci = not acquainted w/Deep State.
I think he's a floater, sort of a veggie-turd, if you will...
Still twice as much as Romania though.
Liar! I have 20 bucks in my pocket right now.
Still masks on where I am. Even on your own, walking down the street. However, you can sit in a bar or restaurant with 100s of other people and you can take it off. Genious.
Apparently we can hug people from today.
That can fuck right off. I didn't hug people before the pandemic, and I don't intend to start now.
(and my mask is staying firmly on when I'm out and about, you can be sure of that)
Keeping masks on here too...
(You really don't know where others have been.) :alien:
I've heard that vaccinated people shed protein spikes that create infertility and impotence in unvaccinated people. So everyone better keep their masks on; especially those patriots among us who stand up to Sleepy Joe and don't intend to introduce those 5G microchips into their bloodstream. Can't let the US turn into a literal breeding ground for those leftwing extremists! ;)
Oh frack!!!!!! :lol::lol::lol:
(...pick me off rhe flur... I canna type!!) :lol::alien:

Looks like the first dose has already eroded your fingers. :emo:
Actually I just noticed I no longer have hands... They're flippers now! :fear2: :cry:Quote:

Fuck Rand Paul. And DeSantis and Abbott while we are at it.
Don't get me started on school starting up next week with mandates outlawing mask mandates in place. Nevermind that half the kids are too young to get vaccinated. I hope my school district will follow Houston ISD's lead, tell Abbot to fuck off and require masks anyway.
Yeah, I'd tend to agree with that statement also.Quote:

No libertarian should ever attempt to wrap himself in the flag. It's "We the people" not "I the person", fucktard.
