I am here. First time in Ct in a long while. Some of the same feelings as the last time when we came here a year ago and never left but different this time. We have to fight through this we have to stay in school. I may have to up the quality of my mask. I wear a loose fabric one. I will NOT get a booster. Not until Omicrom is worked into it in March and after<---

Intel apologizes over comments over alleged forced labor in Xinjiang... Dec. 23, 2021 9:35 AM ETIntel Corporation (INTC) Intel Corp. (NASDAQ:INTC) apologized for asking suppliers to stop sourcing goods from Xinjiang because of alleged human rights abuses after the chipmaker received blowback from China over the comments. The letter caused “concerns among our cherished Chinese partners, which we deeply regret,” Intel said in a statement, according to multiple media reports, including the Associated Press. “We apologize for the trouble caused to our respected Chinese customers, partners and the public." Furthermore we freely admit we are dogs. Filthy dogs. And China is so great/. Just a great great pace they have so much freedom and joy and the people are so great. Did we menton China is great? Intel released the letter to suppliers as it was trying to comply with U.S. regulators, according to the AP report, which cited Intel's social media account. The Biden administration has barred imports of goods from Xinjiang over allegations of forced labor, which China has denied. Wang Junkai, one of China's biggest boy bands, said it will end all of its partnerships with Intel over the comments, Bloomberg also reported, citing a statement by his studio Wednesday. Hey Wang no more cloud internet for you!
Stoney, Do you remember a few years back, the NCAA banned tournament events in N. carolina over bathroom rules? And not to get political but didn't Georgia ban a bunch of stuff over whatever happened after the election? The MLB All-Star game? That's all well and good... but there are over 1 million native (like our American Indians) Uyghur 's in NW China being held in concentration camps, and these people are being raped, murdered and tortured. This is not bs. It is really happening. Yet Biden is letting us go to the Winter Olympics in Beijing in February?! Our Fortune 500 companies are sponsoring this event?! Wtf am I missing here Stoney? The word "hypocrisy" doesn't even come close. We're worried about a bathroom law to the extent that the NCAA bans the final four... but people are getting tortured raped and killed... and we turn the other cheek? Wtf? Is it me, or does this seem pretty f'd up? Whatever. Maybe @easymon1 will make one of his nice collages for this post. It needs one.
Hello Christmas Freaks! We have a white dusting on the ground. I think these US companies that make all of these apologies to China are weak as crap. They should just do it the Apple way-- pay off people. It's easier. Hundreds of canceled flights today highlight the problem with Omicrom-- it's sheer numbers we all cannot take off when we are sick I'm afraid... I hate to say this but we all should just get infected and be done with it. We know a friend who got it in an interesting way. It was a party and it was going pretty well and they needed an additional table. And four people went next door and got an extra table and carried it into the main room... and ALL 4 GOT OMICROM! Was it on the table? Or was 1 of the 4 carrying it? Who knows-- spreads like wildfire.
