    They sold a revision after Mike Tyson got accused or jailed for rape. Or if it was something else Tyson did at that time. But I think it was the rape.

    Well this is a happy little bit:
    https://www.livescience.com/young-scientists-wins-competition-coronavirus-drug.html
    “With the COVID-19 pandemic still raging, a 14-year-old from Texas has won a national science competition for identifying a molecule that can bind to the virus and potentially disable it.”

    When I was 14, I wasn't identifying molecules...but I did figure out how to beat Mike Tyson in Nintendo's "Mike Tyson's Punch Out."

    Ha, my puberty laden mind was in only one place when I was 14...
    This really is such an inspiring story, though.  Nice to get a reminder that there is hope in our young generations and that they aren’t all sitting around playing video games 24/7.

    Former President Obama saying Sweden has a "herd immunity strategy"...

    When I was 14 it was just called "Punch Out" at that time. 
    No. It would have been called Punch-Out!!   :)

    And I never beat Mike Tyson, and I wasn't home when my brothers did. Forever stuck at Macho Man since... 1992 or whenever.

    Super Macho Man.  Was he the guy that was right before Tyson?  I only beat him once (which got me a code to fight Tyson, who I beat twice...why do I remember this?)
    Please tell me you still remember the code?

    sweden is better in every way, shape, and form. to say otherwise is to be a blasphemer.

    I saw her interviewed on TV the other day, and she came across as NO 14 year old.  Smart !!

    It's in the "pod save america" interview. I captured that moment, but deleted it sadly for some reason. Old phone. Little space on it. Need an iPhone 12 mini in red.

    One "fun" thing he said though in the same interview, was that republicans are doing things in the US that not even far-right extreme parties are doing in Europe. Like undermining the election etc.

    Not to sound like a russian agent. But found that interesting. Coming from a country where there is a given that the election is fair, and not something people no matter what political affiliation ever question. Like, I've never heard anyone question mail voting or that you have to show up early to get to vote because you will line up for 24 hours or not every citizen having a chance to vote or weird voter registration shit you have to fill in (?) or gerrymandering or whatever...  (it's not normal)

    Just curious, does anyone who has to wear a mask all day at work have sinus issues? A lot of my coworkers and myself are getting sinus infections and sinus headaches and just sinus problems. Some of them are saying its wearing a mask for 6+ hours a day, I'm not sold on that idea yet though. But there's definitely a lot of sinus issues going on here.
    Zero issues I wear masks all day since last March same with every one else I work with..
    I have regular allergy and sinus issues.  I've noticed less rather than more.  I wear masks all day, each work day (9+ hours) and outside of work as well.  Probably very similar to normal, and definitely not worse to this point.

    I have noticed ear pain due to strings usually after about 8 hours wear.  And sometimes pain on nose bridge mainly as I try to keep it tight so I don;t fog safety glasses.
    Yeah that’s the annoying part of it, behind the ear pain and the fogging of my glasses damn bothersome!
    jesus greets me looks just like me ....

    no, not moot. sweden's initial strategy was a failure resulting in high level of cases, same as trump's. own it.

    i love sweden and i want to go there some day. but sweden mishandled covid just like everyone else. 

    swedes should not be mad at americans for pointing it out. it is a human issue, and everyone failed at some point along the way. except for new zealand, they are now back to normal.

    i am referring to this ENTIRE THREAD where you went on and on and on about how sweden had superior response. this has proven to not be the case.

    i am just saying that when you come for obama, you had better have had a better response that sweden ended up having. you guys screwed it up too. at least i own the american failed response.
