Went to the boys basketball semifinals yesterday with my kid and had to mask.
Going to the finals today. Same time. Same venue. Same 4 schools (3rd place game & final) with same student body's school band and families.....
Like magic....NO MASK REQUIRED! The statewide mandate is gonesky. Imagine my excitement.
on the data from Johns Hopkins that I presented?...for instance, in January of this year Oregon's 'Positivity Rate' was a whopping 22%...the goal has been to get it under 5%...now, based on scientific analysis and statistical projections that were made weeks ago, your state is at 3%...therefore, the mask mandate can be lifted...that's how reasoned people operate.
btw, I also linked an announcement from your own state health authority explaining what is happening and how the near future is likely to unfold...any comments on what they have to say?...might take a little reading and thought on your part...
Also, I'm always willing to enter into a discussion of Sam Brinton...I've already given my rationale, I'd like to hear you defend your position, as well...

You really are a leg humper. I'm sure momma will be home soon....give you a little doggie lovin'....
your thoughts?...why can't you get past the fact that there are scores of different sexual fetishes that, by some accounts, nearly 1/3 of the country practice...and we don't have 100 million "perverts" running around...so long as a person is not causing harm to another...and is a law-abiding, productive member of society...let it be.
Or, as another poster has commented..."you need to evolve"...or simply, grow up.
You get off on dudes getting walked like dogs. I mean are your wife kids and grandkids ok with this? San Francisco is a pretty strange place I guess. Holidays must be a interesting time at your place. Separate the big dogs from the little ones I guess.
Fucking deranged sicko.
on your part...I have not expressed my approval or disapproval of how he chooses to conduct himself, nor will I...any extrapolation of that position is simply unsubstantiated conjecture.
Your apparently deep seated hangups are your problem...if responsible people in both the Trump and Biden administrations feel Sam Brinton's job qualifications...and lack of criminal history...are enough justification to hire him, I'm good with that as well...btw, his "persona" was public long before even I had heard of him, or the arrival of the Trump admin, so lot's of people were totally aware of his sexuality and fetish, yet they accepted him as a worthy contributor to the nuclear waste issue...you, however, can't seem to look past your own bias...that's too bad.
I suspect all this animus of yours pre-dates Sam Brinton, but that's just my opinion...try to get over it...although, based on past performance, you'll continue with your childish 'meme'...it is what it is.
You've sided with a perv. But you've also been ok with minor attracted people. You are what you are. Ain't no meme playboy....
Next time don't bring up my family and we can be friends old man.
had spoken to him about his views on any of this...seems reasonable to me...but you said you didn't and I haven't mentioned him since, nor will I again...while we're at it...please don't bring up my grandkids or any other members of my family in any way that touches on this topic of yours...I certainly didn't invite you to do that...
As for "perversion"...there is a very wide spectrum of behaviors that elicit that view...as a link I posted shows, there are scores of 'popular' acts that would qualify...from "Bondage", to "SadoMasochism"...to "Role Playing"...take your pick...but, so long as the behavior doesn't cause damage to the person or others, it's none of your concern how those persons get aroused.
For my part, I accept that millions of people fit your description of "perversion"...my only concern is that they don't let it hurt themselves or others...your posts represent the only times the issue comes to my mind...it's all on you as to whether you keep pushing this, or move on.
And you used it to make a shitty point. And my mentioning it was completely unrelated to this topic.
But I should know better....that's how predators like you work. You and the predators you admire.
Decency would include an apology. But if this board has shown us anything it is you are a liar and of low character.
You're a total dickhead. GFY Tyrone.
and please stop bringing my grandkids into this nonsensical fantasy of yours...
I've tried to explain my views, and other posters 'get it' easily...but you choose not to listen or engage in a discussion...time to move on, Stark.
made and you've been notified...
But to your amazed reaction regarding the cessation of mask mandates, here are some data points from today's Johns Hopkins COVID tracker...(7 day averages)
U.S.
1/12/2022...Cases: 807K...Deaths: 2K...Hospitalizations: 154K...Positivity Rate: 26%
3/10/2022... " 46K... " 1.7K... " 29K... " " 3%
Oregon
1/12/2022... " 7.7K... " 17.... " 880... " " 22%
3/10/2022... " 0.4K... " 32... " 425... " " 3%
Hopefully, you can appreciate the rational thinking that went into this decision...btw, you were warned weeks ago that this might happen ;-).

Broken windows, chain link fences around building, homeless camps, spent needles and human feces on the sidewalk. It's a goddamned liberal paradise because of course they don't have to endure it. No they make these decisions from the comfort of their multimillion dollar homes in the West Hills or high end condos in the Pearl District.
All the pleasures of NYC or LA or the Bay Area without super great curry restaurants.
Now. You see it here daily.

"Viruses, and body odor, are like....bad things. So if you wear things over your face you can't breathe bad things. But we don't like....have anymore bad things you can breathe. So you no long needs things on your face (insert cackling.....)!"
Actual quote. Fact!

They both grossly overestimate the effect that our actions have on Putin.
Mearsheimer blames us because we expanded NATO (which I agree was a horrible mistake, but do not agree it made war inevitable).
Conservative anti-Biden zealots blame us because somehow we were insufficiently strong during the 13 months of his presidency.
In both cases this is what psychologists call “centrality,” or the tendency to overestimate OUR effect on THEIR decisions. We are the center of our universe, so we assume we are the center of their’s, too.
