22 members of my family have died of covid since December 2019. I lost some really beloved ones, plus a bunch of dipshit chud relatives. At this point I’m fully prepared to get notified my parents are in the hospital on a ventilator.
Jesus fucking christ that’s worse than one of my best friends who lost 8 family members most of whom lived on reservations. Absolutely irredeemable that we have allowed this to happen as a society.
a good number of mine deliberately tempted fate by refusing to believe covid was real. They congregated in large groups, never wore masks, never took precautions, never got vaccinated nor tested. They never believed covid was anything more than a trick being pulled to make Trump look bad, even as they were gasping to death in a hospital bed. Their surviving siblings and children also don’t believe covid is real, so nothing has been learned and the bodies just keep piling up.
Sorry for your loss
But I’m really curious now. Do any other health problems run in your family? You’d be incredibly interesting to follow as a case study
The only shared health issues I know about are autism and diabetes. Those two are more common in my family than the general population. One reason I’ve lost so many is because my extended family is so large. Family gatherings would easily exceed 150 people. The ones who died were typically the most boisterously conservative and least cautious. None of those 22 were vaccinated and most of them took no precautions whatsoever. Continued going to family gatherings, traveling, never wearing a mask, and never getting tested when they exhibited symptoms. Several of them died literal hours after making Facebook posts about how covid was fake and they loved Trump and blah blah. I also lost a few really dear family members before a vaccine was available.
Despite all of that I don’t really hate them, I just feel a huge emptiness. It’s extremely unfortunate how miserably brainwashed some of theme are. I have really good memories of them from when I was a kid. Used to hang out with them a lot more.
In any case, I hate America and wish nothing but eternal hellfire for the bourgeoisie and their servants in washington.
In South Africa Omicron is actually less severe at the moment. Key part being “at the moment”. Want to know why?
Because 0.5% of the entire countries population (280 000 people) has died of COVID 19 since May 2020, so basically everyone has some form of immunity from previous infections and/or vaccines, or is, uhh, in the mourge already.
:yea: :sadness-abysmal:
South Africa also has a larger share of younger people, who generally become less severely afflicted, than the western countries have. AFAIK at this point it is to early to say if omicron gives more or less severe covid.
I think it’s too early to be sure, but not too early to have some pretty strong suspicions that it’s less severe.
While South Africa is a young country, we can still compare apples to apples by comparing it to South Africa’s Delta wave. While cases are high, Delta had a higher case fatality, hospitalization, and severe outcome rate than Omicron.
I’m fully okay with waiting to get more data before being conclusive, but I think the point estimate is less severe with a wide margin of error.
I’m convinced I got it in like April 2020 when I had this really annoying persistent cough out of nowhere for like three weeks. In a part of the country where it was literally impossible to buy masks at the time, so I just had to take my chances and I probably had a mild case.
From what I understand, booster shots really help against omicron. If you wanna stay out of our broken hospital system, schedule a booster as soon as possible
got mine yesterday.
that booster got me good, been feeling lethargic af. :sicko-intrigued: :sicko-luna:
Been cuddled up in bed playing Crusader Kangz II, no idea what I’m doing.
btw how much tylenol do I need to take to feel high?
Tylenol contains acetaminophen which is incredibly harmful to your liver in high doses, so don’t do that. Do whippits like the rest of us
Like @Oso_Rojo and @take_five_seconds said, do NOT take more tylenol than you need. That shit is not benign. I know the getting high on tylenol specifically was partly a joke, but since you said you were serious about wanting to get high…
If you want to get high off OTC medicines you have a few options, all of which I could go into more detail about if you care. @TheModerateTankie suggested robotussin, and that is good so long as you can get the kind that ONLY contains DXM (dextromethorphan), no acetaminophen, no guaifenesen, etc. Personally, I would recommend RoboCough which is sold as a medication but is absolutely made for the purpose of getting high. It has no other active ingredients. DXM is a powerful dissociative so if you do use it, educate yourself on it first and use it with cautious respect.
RoboCough
their websites a fuckin doosy DRINK MILK TO ELIMINATE 90% OF AFTERTASTE
not even the whole aftertaste 90% of it
By only DXM, you mean no other active or inactive ingredients…?
what if it has USP 20mg Cough Suppressant Guaifenesin, USP 400mg Expectorant
in other words how does this one look
My 2 cents / Anecdotal evidence from west coast: hospital staff are freaking out like it’s 2020…
