  1. Sounds anecdotal and doesn't jibe with anything you read anywhere else. Latinos in Texas are getting vaxxed at about 80% the clip everyone else. Basically all other states show them lagging. They are closing the gap now (seemingly because we've hit a hard plateau on whites and not yet on minorities), but definitely not enough to be dark like that map shows My guess is there some math issues. Either people are coming over from Mexico and getting a shot, which ups the numerator artificially, or we aren't counting all the people in the county (e.g., because of citizenship) which drops the denominator. Or both. But you basically cannot have both the Latino numbers that low in all the reporting and the border counties that high, given the demographics of those counties.
  2. There’s no way Hispanic vaccination is that high.
  3. This one made me laugh.
  4. Man, that Trent Crimm thing seemed like some awkward laugh line at the time. Now that you’ve really put a point on why it was dumb, it really annoys me.
  5. I feel like there should be some unequal way of drawing. Like, everyone registers, but only pull women’s numbers if we really really need them.
  6. Too focused on capturing the female demographic this episode with Ted joining girl talk, Roy doing the wine and yoga group and girl power doctor being too highlighted.
  7. Hm. Not great.
  8. lulz at everyone out there hating on us and we are just
  9. Fuck staying a second longer. https://getyarn.io/yarn-clip/5e5be4ca-5241-4bef-8533-bcb08b279627 Check the couch cushions of a half dozen alumni from River Oaks.
  10. @JFKFC pointed out on the realignment thread that Meemaw's comments are in preparation for our arrival, and I think that is canon now. Guys, we can't keep tarding it up. We have, like, an actual university to hang out with now.
  11. Alabama governor sick of her folks dying. https://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/us_60fa39a1e4b0e92dfec18d12
  12. Had a bunch of Slack (WORK), now have a bunch of Salesforce (CRM) based on the acquisition. It just closed. It was announced I would get $26.79 for each share of WORK, which I got, and .0776 CRM, which I didn't get. I actually got .075. Anyone know why the discrepancy? Not a big difference, but just want to know what is happening behind the scenes that a couple shares disappeared. https://investor.salesforce.com/press-releases/press-release-details/2020/Salesforce-Signs-Definitive-Agreement-to-Acquire-Slack/default.aspx
  13. My wife has about 100 employees. 6 unvaccinated. 1 22 year old white girl home schooled, (but college educated). First job, the world is scarier than she planned for and frozen from acting. Very unplugged into society and doesn’t like participating. The other 5 are all Latinos. Popping their heads up in public, signing their names to things, anything that feels like a registry is all very unnerving to them. Ultra compliant with mask wearing but don’t want anything with their name on it.
  14. the word is lethal to the speaker and everyone knows it. just don't say it. I don't even type it. I've used this gif before and had to do some creative 'training day denzel gif' type search instead of the obvious. whatever backstory he had that led him to believe this was the okay time to say it, he was wrong. there ain't no such backstory.
  15. I’ve seen various people tweet that article and pull some morbid quote. It’s quite a contrast with her picture.
  16. COVID deaths will not get into electorally significant numbers, so I don't think that is the reasons. 2MM deaths nationwide is less than 5,000 per congressional district. Half don't vote. Then even if it is 2-1 Rs dying, that's like an 800 vote net gain. You'd have to really nail the distribution exactly on a close race to matter in even a single congressional election. I think they are out of an election year and don't feel like they are risking anything by supporting it now. The delta variant makes for convenient excuse to switch because they can claim it is something different and not a change of position.
  17. Lulz. Basically too old for wwii
  18. mike trout bats .380. my revolver is a .38. therefore my revolver is v v good at baseball.
  19. Mandela huh. Can’t see someone with a name like that being successful in politics.
