Hey kids, even the magical elves that come alive and move around playing tricks are able to spread the coof and kill grandma if they don't stay locked in their boxes and wear masks! They won't even give the kids a brief respite from the fearmongering. This is child abuse.

I was at a gas station last night and CNN was on the TV.

I overheard Don Lemon in a segment making a case for not going to Thanksgiving dinner even if you have a negative COVID test, because you don't get the results until 3-5 days later and you can catch COVID in the time between getting the test and getting the result.

Oh...so COVID tests are just about completely worthless then to most normal people in most situations? Good to know.
 
The whole mask thing? I've never worn one, never will. What sort of proof do they ask for in the US if you say you're exempt for medical reasons? In the UK they can't ask and you're under no obligation to prove anything . What's it like elsewhere?
I know at the very least some airlines refuse to allow passengers on board their airplanes under any circumstances if they're not wearing a mask, and require masks to be worn throughout the flight. I'm not looking forward to my upcoming holiday travel because of that. As I described in a previous post though, the airports themselves don't seem to give a shit about masks. Not even the TSA goons at the security checkpoints or their office cared at all.

Otherwise I have never been confronted or admonished for not wearing a mask anywhere I've gone, or been denied entry or service because of it. I hear Costco is pretty stuffy about it, but they begrudgingly allow medical exceptions (they don't appear to demand proof). My vet politely asked me to keep a mask on while in the waiting room (to avoid "scaring" people), but didn't mind me taking it off in the exam room.

I've had a few trips to the hospital (bloodwork and scans; nothing serious -- you're stuck with me, Kiwis) in recent months and they were requiring face masks. Clearly they were prepared to deny entry to anyone not wearing a mask, but they had a supply of masks ready so they could furnish one for anyone who needed one instead of turning them away. They were also screening for Mandarin Malady symptoms and checking temperatures, and would refuse entry at all entrances to symptomatic people except for the Emergency department, which had its own protocol for symptomatic people in need of emergency care.

No shit. That's real fucking wonderful. Am to be tested 4 days before a medical procedure by hospital policy, so there's a chance I may not know the results by the time I have the procedure. But I don't think I have it, so I don't give a fuck.

More bitching and whining by the state of Insanity (CA). Wonder why, "they" will do as "they" please. "They" sure hate admitting nobody cares what they say. Fuck "them", fully. Stepdaughter's coming down for Thanksgiving.




 
My family canceled Thanksgiving unfortunately, and unfortunately for the powers that be means I'm going snowboarding instead.
My Thanksgiving is very small this year since a few elderly relatives decided not to travel, but good on them. I'm glad they weighed both the risk and the hassle of driving and made a decision and I'm glad my family gave them that option and didn't give two shits about what the government and the unelected public health fascists thought of it instead of throwing a fit about how Thanksgiving is literally going to murder them, their friends, and fucking half their town or whatever.

I'm not a fan of the elf on a shelf thing, but wtf.

Dr Fauci said that Santa is immune to Covid, which I thought was a pretty cool thing since kids worry about stuff like that.
 
What can we do to support these kids? I have some family friends/"adopted" nieces and nephews that I want to help.
See if any of the home school groups in the area(if any) are doing events similar to what your nieces and nephews are missing and see if they can join in. Home school groups can be small but in my experience pretty welcoming. The home school group for HS students in my area helped hold a prom for some of the public school kids. The event wasn't even 50 people (12 being the home school kids), the high schoolers were thankful that they got to have a prom.
 
Elf on a Shelf is fucking retarded. If parents need to squeeze good behaviour out of their spawn by telling them they're being watched, and there will be no Onanistic frenzy of materialism and gifts for Christmas if they're "naughty" then they are failures as both parents and human beings.

These smug, self-aggrandizing cunts think they're like so witeeeeeee and funnneeeeeeeeeeeeeee and it's going to be at the expense of their children's development and mental health. I genuinely hope the therapy costs bankrupt the parent and rape and pillage their IRAs.

Parents from what I noticed feel like they "have" to participate in elf on the shelf (as a parent let me state no you do not) and it gave way to the "funny haha" meme bullshit of the various torture the elf could go through that cover twitter and facebook throughout December. EOTS is stupid and the best way to not do it is to not introduce the idea to your kids. Eventually they'll come to the conclusion that it's a dumb tradition as well and you aren't out 60$ or however much it costs for the damn things

If parents are so spineless they should have a long, hard look at themselves. That's pathetic, honestly. And sixty bucks? A tard and their money part easy I guess.
 
I have always thought Elf On A Shelf was a way of getting kids used to Big Brother Is Watching You.
I can't think of a better way to condition little kids to being spied on in their own homes. Can you, Comrade?
Idk, songs about Santa Claus 'sees you when you're sleeping/ knows when you're awake' did it for me. I figured EOTS was an extension of that. Which again, creepy in retrospect.

Then again we live in the era of "google home" and "Alexa" and I'm one of those people that believes that Big Brother is already here
 
They are pissed that Kemp didn't impose strict rules on Georgia ahead of Thanksgiving.

Experts alarmed as Kemp sees no new virus rules amid “bump”​

https://apnews.com/article/atlanta-georgia-coronavirus-pandemic-80497b231a6c657cec19646e21172bec (https://archive.vn/eG3PU)
Excerpt:
The Republican governor repeated the same guidance he’s been giving Georgians since summer, that they should wear masks, keep their distance from others, wash their hands, and follow Kemp’s rules, including bans on large gatherings. The governor said he wasn’t planning any other measures, such as a statewide mask mandate, or renewed restrictions on businesses.
//
Amber Schmidtke, an epidemiologist who writes a daily report on Georgia’s COVID-19 situation, said Kemp is wrong to rely on personal responsibility to prevent spread over Thanksgiving.

“If this were a successful strategy, we wouldn’t have a pandemic any more,” Schmidtke said. “If we could trust people to put others’ needs ahead of their own, it would have been vanquished over the summer.”

Get in the pod! Y'all can't behave! Eternal lockdown for you redneck, sisterfucking, grandma killing imbeciles!

Just wait until Biden takes control. They are going to use every tool of bureaucracy available to get governors like Kemp to bend to their will.
 
"If this were a successful strategy, we wouldn’t have a pandemic any more,” Schmidtke said. “If we could trust people to put others’ needs ahead of their own, it would have been vanquished over the summer
Because that totally worked in Europe and Australia and the only place the virus still spreads is the United States thanks to Drumpf and those evil Republicans out to kill as many grandmas as possible.

"If this were a successful strategy, we wouldn’t have a pandemic any more" is a great quote too I should add.

I've always hated those damn things. This just gives me one more reason.
