Yep, this year's strain is very weird and seemed to go right for the throat. The BIGGEST Google search keywords this year was "COVID 2025 symptoms", no doubt from everybody who got the new variant and also found out that it was way different than the previous hits. The second trending search was "hantavirus", due to Betsy Arakawa's and Gene Hackman's horrific deaths.
I just had weird throat congestion and cough! It seemed like a allergy type of reaction.
Thought it was from pollen. But, I usually don't have much of a reaction to spring time pollen!
No sore throat near tonsils. Was all down at the bottom of throat.
Woke up one morning with a mild strider and never got a fever. Mild headache came and went! No fever. Didn't even take any aspirin. Was over in about 5 days.
Edit.
The 1st time I had covid. My main symptom was a nasty sore throat. Low fever and headache. Not a lot of congestion. Coughing wasn't bad.
2nd time was very mild! I take daily high doses of Vitamin D3 and K.

i assume that many intel services have spotters all over the web. FS china,mossad,FSB + + do. it seems perhaps that more attention is being paid to the Liberty event. there is also noticeable increase in objections to Israeli actions in Gaza and elsewhere. some of it is the violent college stuff some
rather loud stuff on places like Napolitano. the Jews obviously want to control any narrative,esp neg ones,about their actions. they are also surely aware of the increased knowledge about their control of congress. it should be obvious to anyone that they are trying to start a war with Iran and drag us in. that would in no way benefit the American people or our nat'l interest.
my point being that this has the ring of truth. if so,another turn on my personal thought that Israel should go on the same page as Ukraine. in other words,not another $ going there. the rag heads try to take them out? fuck them.

dems are scum. there is no other explanation.


Critics say the new legislation guts the core of Initiative 2081. Among the most controversial changes:

  • Schools can delay parents from receiving information about their students and entirely removes access for parents receiving medical and mental health records.
  • The bill removes the requirement to notify parents when their child receives medical services from government employees in schools.
  • It allows government employees up to two days to notify parents that their child was the victim of a crime or sexual assault in school.
  • The bill creates significant legal and bureaucratic hurdles for parents seeking to hold schools accountable when rights under I-2081 are violated.
  • The Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI) is granted expanded authority to penalize school districts that fail to comply with its directives.
 
It's even lower when you are serving in the military. There have been a shitton of studies and field scenarios where soldiers follow illegal orders 99% of the time no matter how horrific they are. My example is pretty benign and wasn't shooting babies or anything like that.

I have direct experience, and have seen people do stupid shit they know is wrong and even catastrophic, because they were ordered to do it. I countermanded one such order from a junior officer, as an E5 enlisted, and was not prosecuted. I wasn't commended either. The command for all intensive purposes just ignored it and the only result was to give that zero a shitty eval.

I guess my point is that you either raise people to follow orders, or raise them to think for themselves. We used to be a country full of self reliant people who thought for themselves. I don't think we are anymore, and that is really the only people for whom liberty is suited. Not so much for people who will believe anything that those in authority tell them and don't think for themselves.
