I drink quite a lot of water (nothing insane) and I can't help but wonder if that didn't help me because I weathered both Pfizer shots really well.

Fever is why I was told take tylenol.

I didn't even quit smoking weed for the shot. Went home, smoked, napped, played video games. But J&J, not a two shotter. Arm was meh for a day or so.

We Apologize For The Inconvenience (And Horror)

What's up with the California guard?

quote:

On Wednesday, Samsel, R-Wellsville, was substitute teaching at the Wellsville school district’s secondary school. Throughout the day, high school students began recording videos of the lawmaker talking about suicide, sex, masturbation, God and the Bible.

In one video shared with The Star, Samsel tells students about “a sophomore who’s tried killing himself three times,” adding that it was because “he has two parents and they’re both females.”

“He’s a foster kid. His alternatives in life were having no parents or foster care parents who are gay,” Samsel tells students. “How do you think I’m going to feel if he commits suicide? Awful.”

In another video, Samsel is recorded telling students, “make babies. Who likes making babies? That feels good, doesn’t it? Procreate ... You haven’t masturbated? Don’t answer that question. ... God already knows.”

quote:

Videos shared with The Star — by parents of students in the class — show Samsel focusing most of his attention on one male student. Both Samsel and the student paced around the classroom, talking back and forth. Samsel is shown following the student around and grabbing him. In one video, he puts his arms around the student and says that he was being hard on him.

At one point, Samsel tells the student, “You’re about ready to anger me and get the wrath of God. Do you believe me when I tell you that God has been speaking to me?” He then pushes him, and the student runs to the other side of the classroom.

“You should run and scream.”

In another video, he tells students, “Class, you have permission to kick him in the balls.”

Parents told The Star that Samsel “put hands on the student” and allegedly kneed him in the crotch. In a video apparently taken immediately after the incident, the student is shown on the ground. Samsel is standing over him and says, “did it hurt?”

He then asks him why he is about to start crying, pats him on the shoulder and apologizes, and then says he can “go to the nurse, she can check it for you.”

Samsel addresses another student and says, “do you want to check his nuts for him, please?”

quote:

In a Snapchat post shared with The Star, Samsel wrote that “it was all planned.”

“Every little bit of it. That’s right. The kids and I planned ALL this to SEND A MESSAGE about art, mental health, teenage suicide, how we treat our educators and one another. To who? Parents. And grandparents. And all of Wellsville,” he posted.

He wrote that he gave one particular student “hope.”

“I went to jail for battery. Does that really make me a criminal? Time will tell.”

He said that the incident happened during fifth period, and that the classes before that hour went as planned, and he shared the same lesson in each one. He said what happened was “exactly what God planned. The kids were in on it. Not all of them. But most.”

Bill Gates is gonna do that thing where divorced middle aged guys get publicly real weird about their sex life and I don't know if I'm going to be able to deal with it.

Say, what happened to Andrew Cuomo and his litany of sexual harassment/misconduct accusers? Did we have to ignore that because he's a brave DNC hero and we can't lose more of them?

No consequences came of it, which is the more common outcome than the alternative.

Trip report the next day- fuuuuuuuuuuuck me. Fever and shes with a vengeance. Feels like my fever broke around 7am today. Been driftinging in and out but i don't feel nauseous anymore

I’m surprised how much lower those are than the military. I guess the DoD is more diverse so that may explain it. Especially a place like NYC where it saw first hand the magnitude of the pandemic, with lots of police dying.

Unfortunately it looks like the science says poor nations should be beholden to charity, if they get doses at all. It's a shame that the science says that Pfizer profits are more important than global health but thank God the experts are back in charge.

One of Joe Biden’s top coronavirus advisers has warned that forcing drug companies to abandon intellectual property rights to Covid-19 vaccines risks backfiring if it leads to long legal disputes.

Dr Anthony Fauci, the chief medical adviser to the US president, told the Financial Times that he would oppose a plan to rip up international trade rules to improve vaccine supply in the developing world if it took too long to bear fruit.

The Biden administration is expected to set out its position on intellectual property rights this week during a World Trade Organization meeting.

Fauci told the FT on Monday that he was “agnostic” about how to boost vaccine supply to developing countries. But he added: “Going back and forth, consuming time and lawyers in a legal argument about waivers — that is not the endgame. People are dying around the world and we have to get vaccines into their arms in the fastest and most efficient way possible.

This essentially makes this whole thing an empty policy win for the government and pharmaceutical companies right? They get to champion how they are *above* trying to coldly cash in on a global pandemic as they take in $Texas.
