That this even needs to be said. Although if you read cruise ship forums, you'd almost believe the CDC has a personal vendetta against the cruise ship industry, yadda yadda yadda. And let's not even broach Governor DeSantis' feelings about protecting the cruise industry. Although, to be fair, it plays a good sized role in Florida. Just that, IMO, the CDC etc has to look at the entire country, not one industry (that's not even legally based in the US for the most part) and one state. Brutal, but true I think. It's a big deal for Alaska too

Woooo he just got Psakied. Trying to make fetch happen about getting Republican votes for the infrastructure package, she tells him to ask Republicans and points to broad public support. He says she's staking her credibility on punting to them, she asks why he doesn't think the opinion of the American people matters. Are we going to see Kate McKinnon playing Psakie on Weekend Update so she can “You got Psakied” Colin and Michael? I miss hearing “That’s a Ginsburn” from her. I love this idea so much

Does anyone else regularly use Tapatalk and is it working today? I feel lost right now and I'm trying to figure out if it's a me problem or an everybody problem.. It's a Tapa problem. They need to get their shit together I don't get any notifications for several hours. E.g. if someone tags me, or quotes me, I'll get the push notification about 3 hours later. That's fine, no reason an admin needs their notifications or anything.

Cruises were disgusting petri dishes before Covid. The CDC even had a vessel sanitation program specifically for cruise ships because there are regular disease outbreaks on them. www.cdc.gov/nceh/vsp/surv/gilist.htm Opening up cruise ships when we are the cusp of third wave would be incredibly irresponsible. I really enjoy cruises but yeah, you have to be really careful about your hygiene. We went on a cruise for our honeymoon in June 2019, not even close to the cold/flu season and they had hand sanitizing stations all over the place, with staff sort of shaming everyone into using them lol. I imagine when they start up again it’s going to be even more intense.

Gaetz is trending again, so naturally people are all up in arms about this post in particular. Poor Gertz can’t win even when people are sticking up for him. 😂

While I agree that the intentions are not correct, I am for the separation of church and state. This law is a continuation of an old law from the early 20th century which bans all religious symbols (crucifixes, stars of David included) in public schools. The addition this year that was also passed included parents of children attending school field trips from wearing religious symbols. Yes, I agree it totally targets Muslims and there is a very real anti Muslim sentiment in France, especially since the 2015 attacks. The current senate is very conservative so this vote didn’t shock me and Macron is more socialist leaning. While it passed in senate it will not pass in the assembly (which Macron designates the leader). Macron can also veto laws like this one if it does pass.

Son of a bitch, yes. Dumb, no.
Which is why Mitch will still fall in line. He knows that the GOP will split and lose even more power if they don't.

air fresheners?! I fucking cannot.
Between this and the cop who was fired only because the video of him pepper spraying an army officer went viral, I'm going to rage stroke today.
