  • It didn't come from a lab in Wuhan, it was first discovered in Wuhan but was already going around in Italy for months at that point based on waste samples.

    The point was that we have just as much evidence to say it came from Detrick as we do to say it came from a Chinese lab. It most likely didn't come from either, but only one of these conspiracies gets pushed. If you provide any pushback that maybe China isn't responsible for COVID you get met with "well they would lie and cover it up, so I might as well be right"

  • In the same vein, if you happen to be talking to someone who puts a lot of stock into the 2nd amendment I've found some (limited, sometimes the brainworms are just too tangled) success by asking "who do you think would enforce a gun grab?"

    It's like a 60/40 where sometimes the brainworms take over and they wholeheartedly believe every cop would join them and take up arms against the government

  • 5 whole hours and not a single PPB??? Smh gotta do everything myself

  • The first time I saw it mentioned I thought it was a bit but you've referenced it too many times for that to be the case and now I'm DYING to know what the DPRKOS is

  • I've been enjoying it, but I think it's more because I grew up playing Bethesda RPGs and it's a familiar format in a new setting than anything special with starfield itself. I've been finding the pacing is way too quick as well, I'll spoiler just in case

  • Most of my political education was spurred by having these

  • You wait for the
