    Haha!  In an absurdly, unlikely, hypothetical scenario, if I were to be interviewed by Rogan I would probably say some foolish things like "Wanna arm wrestle!?" and eventually get myself hurt. :lol:

  • for clarity, rogan also endorsed a chimp over both trump and biden. he frequently hosts conspiracy theorists, misogynists, anti-vaxxers, etc on his show and gives them a platform.

    Yeah, but did he interview the chimp and get its take on issues like abortion and vaccinations? :lol:
    It's a hopeless situation...

    I can picture RFK and Rogan pointing their finger at me and saying, "See, sucker!  You feel like shit today, don't you!"
    My reply would be, "Yes, fuckers, sirs, but that's because I got the big-boy "senior" double dose flu shot.  I'll trade one day of feeling a bit beat up for a week to ten days of being sick with the flue.  Same with the COVID vaxx next week.  I don't know about you guys, but approaching the fourth year of the pandemic, I have not had COVID yet , so with all due respect, fuck off... sirs."

    It sure seems like it sometimes.  And yet I keep thinking about an interview I saw him a few months ago (I wish I could remember where), and he sounded very bright, purposeful, intelligent, quite sane, and had some really great ideas.  He also dispelled (in that interview, anyway) the notion of him being an "anti-vaxer", saying he what he is, is being against releasing vaccinations without prior proper testing (I'm glad we have the COVID vax and I think they have been hugely helpful, but I also think a lot of people are in denial about some of the COVID vax drawbacks and won't honestly acknowledge that they have not been great for everybody- me for example- and could have been made better.)

    What I want to know is, since when did politicians become experts on medical issues? We need to make our decisions about our health based on the most reliable sources of doctor's and scientist's information we can find, and still remain skeptical, but certainly not from what politicians say or from things we read on social media.

    In general, this is why society is breaking down.  We are getting information from the wrong sources, are being too quick to believe what we read in headlines, and have lost the ability to remain skeptical.  This will cause the failure of society- probably even of civilization-  to accelerate.

    you're right, they aren't experts, but they have to be asked these types of questions in order to determine where they stand on policy. unfortunately, many of them and their followers do believe they are experts, when they tell them what they want to hear, that is. the vaccine thread is the most glaring example of that nonsense. 

    I keep seeing this meme floating around, something about "society will succeed when scientists are the celebrities" or something like that.

    LOL, have not seen that one.
    Unfortunately, throughout history more scientists have literally or figuratively been burned at the stake than have been celebrated. 
    Not that we should expect scientists in general to amuse or distract, but it seems to me we used to have more scientist who made science and nature both interesting and educational to wide audiences- Carl Sagan, Stephen Hawking, David Attenborough, Bill Nye and the like.

    Edit:  Timing, lol.  Just saw this on FB from Neil deGrasse Tyson:

    May be an image of poster microscope and text that says At the start of every disaster movie there is a scientist being ignored

  • interesting. this occurred after november 2023. wonder if cheryl hines was aware...


    Nuzzi’s RFK Relationship

    "Had the magazine been aware of this relationship, she would not have continued to cover the presidential campaign," the spokesperson said.

    https://www.status.news/p/olivia-nuzzi-rfk-new-york-magazine

    New York magazine on Thursday said its Washington correspondent, Olivia Nuzzi, is on leave after learning the star journalist had allegedly engaged in a romantic relationship with Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

    "Recently our Washington Correspondent Olivia Nuzzi acknowledged to the magazine’s editors that she had engaged in a personal relationship with a former subject relevant to the 2024 campaign while she was reporting on the campaign, a violation of the magazine’s standards around conflicts of interest and disclosures," a spokesperson for New York magazine said in a statement.

    "Had the magazine been aware of this relationship, she would not have continued to cover the presidential campaign," the spokesperson added. "An internal review of her published work has found no inaccuracies nor evidence of bias. She is currently on leave from the magazine, and the magazine is conducting a more thorough third-party review. We regret this violation of our readers’ trust."

    Nuzzi did not comment. She did not proactively disclose her alleged relationship with Kennedy to New York magazine and the outlet only recently learned of it, according to people familiar with the matter. The alleged relationship did not begin until after a November 2023 profile she wrote on Kennedy had been published, a person close to Nuzzi said. The person close to Nuzzi added that she did not use Kennedy as a source while covering the 2024 campaign. A second person familiar with the matter said the relationship is thought to have started around the new year.

    A representative for Kennedy, who mounted a third-party bid for president and recently endorsed Donald Trump, did not comment.
