      To Mask or Not to Mask?

      I think the state-wide EOs go through the end of March, including the one that lets counties decide. The Marion County one might expire March 16. (In my defense, I'm not sure which elected leader is the Royal Asshatness.) ;)

      Beer Virus V

      Nationally, the unfrozen caveman stats continue to improve (other than CFR). We're back in linear increase of deaths, and even that daily metric is decreasing. I really do think we'll see 2019-style normal by the time school starts in August. Even the "scary" mutations, it seems to me that...

      Biden Popularity, part II (because part I was so fun)

      Ok party people in the house. Discussion of Biden Job Approval, as aggregated by RCP: https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/other/president-biden-job-approval-7320.html He's still ~ +15%. Rasmussen was up to +3 and now down to a tie. No discussion of neanderthals eating pineapple on...

      Yeah, but is it a neanderthal strawman or some homo variant?

      Civil Religious Discussions : all things Christianity II

      To borrow the Orthodox vocabulary for the stem-cell issue (partly because I like that framework, as I understand it), the sin of the abortion can be chalked up to the moral sickness of the mother who opted for it (and probably the medical staff that conducted it). From my personal Catholic...

      Civil Religious Discussions : all things Christianity II

      Yeah, so there's a history and context to the question that involves original sin and Christ's atonement on the cross. But, yeah, for INGO purposes, maybe let's just agree that we won't know for sure until its too late to explain it to other INGOers. ;) ETA: Well, bless his heart, foszoe beat...

      Further, let's also face the reality that the water of baptism is no vaccine against virtue signalling on certain issues, with abortion being a prominent one.

      Civil Religious Discussions : all things Christianity II

      Part of the calculus should/must include the good that could come from the sin. Kinda like penance. How many lives are being saved? We are all sinners in (at least) one way or another. The Apostle Paul followed a path that started in sin.

      Civil Religious Discussions : all things Christianity II

      At the risk of analogy-poking, as a society, we've eradicated slavery. Mostly. Not so much abortion. In law, there's this idea of "fruit of a poisonous tree." That's similar to the idea about the abortion derived stem cells. That, even though the decision was made decades ago, the...

      I think that the decision(s) regarding the vaccines, and any medical product derived from aborted stem cells, is a matter of informed conscience. Just MHO.

      What if Texas’s grid wasn’t independent?

      Yeah, I don't think there's any real issue with the decision to go to the controlled rolling outages. That's kinda like setting controlled fires to avoid a wild fire. The real issue is what led to the rolling outages being necessary. That is, why wasn't enough of the rest of the...

      What if Texas’s grid wasn’t independent?

      These are the things that are problematic for self-regulation. States that are part of the federal grid have also been hit with intense weather anomalies (even the same ones) without the same tragic effect, in part because of the federal standards and the willingness to enforce them. Yeah, its...

      What if Texas’s grid wasn’t independent?

      Yeah, the wind/solar thing is interesting in this case. There was some reliance on it, and enough of it went down to be noticed. But it also revealed glaring problems with the "traditional" energy sources. More accurately, with the delivery of the raw material to the production facility, then...

      What if Texas’s grid wasn’t independent?

      I have kin in Texas and yeah, there's some cognitive dissonance about what the risks are for that kind of weather event. But, there is also the undeniable reality that the utilities weren't prepared at the infrastructure level for the weather. A nuclear reactor went offline (which didn't...
