“I signed a cushy RTO contract, and I’m still not following its terms”

There is no allergenic proteins left in peanut oil or it would burn and be rancid at room temperature. Your anecdata is not relevant here.

either you've seen the wrong episodes over and over, or you're just not approaching it with any sort of an open mind. even in the opening song you don't like the "staccato melodica" theme song, its just a small snippet of a longer song their musical director composed that the creator decided to snip down and turn into a game of musical statues...its just supposed to be fun!

and there are episodes like Cricket where it is nothing but kids behaving ideally and overcoming real challenges

Everything else in his post is correct though. I saw his video, it’s a constellation he’s just never noticed before. And he’s supposed to be one of the smarter than average citizens out there

He made what the UK voted as the best comedy series of all time, that’s who?

Hersh hasn’t gotten anything right since My Lai. The Matthew Berry of investigative reporting

The friend who found a bet with 42% implied probability that paid at the equivalent of 10% implied prob should just go back and try again because they’ll become extremely wealthy in a few more minutes time at that casino!

Pretty strong words and claims while providing no data to refute the paper

Intranasal zinc has absolutely shown to have a direct correlation on loss of smell: https://abcnews.go.com/amp/Health/ColdandFluNews/story?id=78...

This article makes confident assertions one after another that are pure opinion and guesses masquerading as fact. He has no proof about how the show is formatted now vs then but makes assumptions left and right to justify his opinion. Luckily, if he hates how Sesame Street has tried adapting to modern tastes and ideas, he can always find the original episodes and show them to his kids instead.

Why even ask such an obvious question

Cool story bro

What's your source on that little nugget

His wife thinks everyone is actually getting sick from 5G, look it up. He has no real concerns based in reality, he’s just a stubborn kook.

“Masks don’t do anything” so you’re starting off on a logical footing I see

Wait until you see how many doses people need for tetanus, pertussis, and diphtheria

(4 in 18 months with boosters every decade)

It’s not a binary thing. One virus enters a cell and it makes thousands of copies to spread in the body. Each of those get attacked by the antibodies and T cells pre-generated from the vaccine. No vax or no prior infection and the body is learning while also getting ravaged by the virus.

And as for immunity from infection, your body makes antibodies for the prefusion spike (the free floating form that infects cells), the post fusion spike (after it binds to ACE2), and the nucleocapsid. Since prefusion spikes are what bind to cells for entry, you’d want your immune system focused entirely on attacking that vector. China’s sinovac vaccine generates nucleocapsid antibodies and it’s failing in the face of omicron.

Enjoy the silo you’ve dropped yourself in

Oh wow, never mind it’s settled truth then /s

You couldn’t have lost the plot any more with this one

It was shown in vitro to be 10x less effective at infecting lung cells vs epithelial cells (mucosal membranes). There’s more than prior immunity at play here. https://wap.business-standard.com/article-amp/current-affair...

I’d rather have my kids immune system with advance notice of a virus rather than have it kill cells indiscrimately if they’re infected? Just because they probably won’t die doesn’t mean I also don’t want their disease burden lowered, not to mention helping prevent them from being an unwitting vector to sicken others around them

Data is showing T cell response is great from 2 doses so you won’t be a burden on the hospital. Looking like cases will diverge from hospitalizations soon and vaccinations will move to flu-like in “strongly encouraged and taken up by the responsible”

The nucleocapsid (the rest of the viral body) is mutating too. But targeting the spike attacks the point of entry for the cells and neutralizes them before they attack cells. So there’s benefits to argue both ways

Plenty of independent ideas are also nonsensical

well he certainly comes at the data with zero prior biases and reaches a predictably level-headed response. and the comments/replies to this post on that site are predictably insane; theorizing Trump will be blamed in 2022 for mass vaccine deaths, getting rounded into camps to be force-inoculated, calling it a "clottery" (clever, but stupid)

It highlights how she’s expected to be his servant, AND if she dares to leave she’s not entitled to any pension leaving her with no income options. Who sounds trapped in this scenario?

Every side effect this vaccine has caused is also caused in far greater numbers by Covid itself. No vaccine has ever had a new side effect after 9 weeks of administration in the history of medicine. And the mandate for the military is timed to be after full FDA approval which is a formality at this point.

tell me you're not that bright without saying you're not that bright

Just because the normal process isn’t parallelized like it was done for these vaccines, plus natural exposure to the pathogen usually takes a very long time to play out. As this vaccine researcher at children’s hospital of Pennsylvania notes, all reactions to vaccines that have ever been recorded were within 2 months of application. https://www.chop.edu/news/long-term-side-effects-covid-19-va...
