Good God in Butter... they are out there

Went down from Columbus to Cincinnati to work on a
family member's house and I got a meal at so so restaurant and I just had a nice older lady tell me that the covid vaccine had given her a stroke in her eye from blood clots in her brain and that caused her to fall and hurt her arm.

America is really fucked. President Obama was right about the disinformation.

A Newt was once Speaker of the House, after all. Of course, he had to resign for being an asshole and a philanderer, but...

on the medical community will be?

I am sure that any kind of a epidemic will become politicized which could easily blow a containable disease into a mess like Trump did to covid.

small pox, rubella, whooping cough, etc.

Already happening because people suddenly don't trust vaccines.

Hopefully the guy did this to prove just how silly the reports can be. It takes quite a while for things like that to be removed. (Though I think Hugin should report the newt thing).

almost immediately after taking the vaccine last June. Aunt supposedly had no history of kidney problems, even though two close relatives have died from kidney disorders in the last several years.

And now she tells me that two of the women in her senior/disabled complex (36 units) are now suffering catastrophic side effects from the vaccine (unknown when they took it).

Of course, she is also a quidiot, so I just shake my head.

Dennis Prager and his idiot callers are constantly using anecdotal evidence as proof that covid isn't dangerous, that some sketchy treatment cures it.

after my first vaccination. In all the years I had that dog I had never tripped over her and fallen and broken my toe before. It had to be the vaccination.

I'd be more than happy to fly you out to Idaho, put about four bowls of chili into you while I eat half a case of MREs, and we'll go to the next Kootenai County Republican Central Committee meeting. If you can't go to a Republican Party meeting and fart until you hit the lower explosive limit for flatulence, is life really worth living?

and now he can hop around sky scrapers in NYC and lift semi trucks with one hand. They’ve even made several movies about him.

Geez, that poor lady. Well at least she won’t grow facial hair when the moon is full. That happened to another guy who was bitten by a wolf.

All sorts of crazy things going on in this world.

The level of disinformation she and her hubby along with being willfully stupid to say that kind of

And I've had three flat tires in a row on number one bike. I'm sure the two events are closely related!
