OT: 85th Obsequious Banter Thread: Pelle Lindbergh Memorial Thread

[Embiid]

over 70 confirmed with Covid at Olympics

Read that they are actually considering canceling....guess we'll see. People acting like this pandemic is over. It's not just the pandemic of the unvaccinated although they are impacted the most disproportionately. There are breakthrough infections among the vaccinated and although symptoms mild or asymptomatic ...still a risk to the immunocompromised. Of course the more this damn pathogen hangs around and incubates...the more it replicates.

Unbelievable flooding in China

There was a video with people inside a subway car and the water was up to their waists and the doors were shut and the water OUTSIDE the car was like 2 feet higher at the windows.
Then another one showed the water inside a subway car and it was filled up to like a couple feet below the ceiling.

I don't want to link just for not knowing with certainty what happened to those people. Some said everyone was rescued, but I didn't see any clips of the rescue. There were clips of people being rescued/led thru subway tunnels off subway cars just don't know if it was that specific car.

One of the posts in that thread talked about the subway and showed some bodies on the platform. It seems they didn't all get out safely.

The smoke and haze from the western wild fires is brutal. So bad, its even showing up in hourly observations around east coast airports.

Can see it here against the trees in the hood.

As for the launch today. Fox Philly local news broadcasted it, Mike Jerrick came right out and said it looked like a vibrator.

I like listening to the Slim Shady & Marshall Mathers LP’s as an adult & understanding the references now that I didn’t as like a 10 year old.

We are rocking and rolling in Manitoba finally and getting back to normal. We at 80% 1st dose tho and pushing 60% with second. Also have a vaccine passport in place.

The #1 covid case from (for?) Czech Olympic team was an unvaccinated physician who was eligible to get vaccinated 7 months ago. Just great

It's Wednesday, which means I'm off for a week. I go to bed this morning with plans to wake up in the afternoon and mow the grass which honestly has never been longer imo (mom and brother not home, me and dad both working and sleeping during the day). Wake up, it's a monsoon. Give it a few hours to dry, go out to mow about 10 mins ago, and it's thundering. When the f*** have we ever had a severe thunderstorm, blue sky, then another severe thunderstorm 5 hours later? f***ing stupid. So now I'm forced to mow tomorrow before a hockey game with plans to drive 3 hours to the beach afterwards. Hope I don't fall asleep and crash and die. Thanks weather. f***ing annoying

This photo has 3 of my favorite things: doggos sleeping, Elton John, and HFBoards hand models.

That's a fantastic album cover to own.
