    42,533 new cases, about the same as two weeks ago.

    California: 3,712 new cases; 75 deaths
    Fuck Florida.
    Texas: 3,178 new cases; 94 deaths
    Illinois: 2,529 new cases; 25 deaths
    Georgia: 2,284 new cases; 62 deaths
    Wisconsin: 2,283 new cases; 3 deaths
    Alabama: 1,301 new cases; 9 deaths
    Oklahoma: 1,237 new cases; 4 deaths
    North Carolina: 1,229 new cases; 28 deaths
    Arkansas: 1,078 new cases; 8 deaths
    Utah: 1,077 new cases; 3 deaths
    Indiana: 1,076 new cases; 8 deaths
    New York: 1,033 new cases; 2 deaths

    This was Wisconsin's and Utah's second-highest total and their Active Cases charts have taken a damned-near vertical leap the past couple days. The Midwest spike continues. Oklahoma's cases have increased to the levels they were at the beginning of August. New York went above 1k again but they've been hovering in the area for weeks. So far they seem to be holding relatively steady--but then, they have ample experience in dealing with this.

    657 deaths, a little down from two weeks ago, putting the total at 203,824. Deaths SHOULD be coming down since we haven't been at the 60k levels of new cases in several weeks, but daily new cases averaged over the past few weeks has been relatively stable so they likely won't be declining too much further, probably averaging out at around 700-800 per day unless newer methods of treatment are effective.

    I know we all got a huge helping of our least favorite vegetable on our plates yesterday, but there's not enough mashed potatoes to hide it all and there are other courses being served simultaneously so we're going to have to suck it up and eat it for now until we can cook for ourselves.



    I'm sorry, I haven't eaten much today. I should go remedy that.

    Stay safe, folks.

    Also pointed out that if god does exist, then one of his greatest gifts to mankind would have to be our intelligence and without that even our free will is all but useless and that he is forsaking that gift to back everything his own god preached him to stand against and by doing so putting god to the test hoping he will bail his kids out from the consequences of his actions all so he can protect his own ego and committing the sin of pride.
    Since we can't call out Trolls and Bad Faith posters and the Ignore function doesn't actually ignore it. Add
    "mmo-champion.com##li.postbitignored"
    to your ublock or adblock filter to actually ignore ignored posters. Now just need a way to ignore responses to them as well.

    Trump calls himself ‘Donald Prump’, gives himself ‘D’ for coronavirus response and appears to admit trying to blackmail Oracle

    In the Reddit thread linked below someone was kind enough to provide a video with timestamps that shows Trump saying the things that this article claims.

    I thought I was topped out on hate for Trump, but his talk about "fake history" has found another reservoir of hate, what a giant fucking piece of shit.

    And the fact that him and his supporters think a grade of D is something to praise and cheer for is pathetic. It's SAD to be honest.

    Think of what it implies about his grades to get into college... it’s good to have a rich daddy...

    Just when you think Trump can't get any dumber....

    https://www.forbes.com/sites/tommybe...g#58d719a376f6

    In a wide-ranging speech at a campaign rally Saturday night, President Donald Trump ramped up attacks against his opponent, Joe Biden, calling Biden the "dumbest of all candidates," and went so far as to declare, "maybe I'll sign an executive order that you cannot have him as your president."

    Trump: "I never said I would! I just said 'maybe!'"

    Remember, he's not the disease he's the symptom. The fact that there are people who enjoy this "song and dance" are the reason he's doing it.

    At least Mountain Dew Comacho understood that he was not smart enough to solve their crisis, and that he needed to find the smartest person available to help him. A stark contrast to Donald "no one is better at X than me" Trump.

    You know, for a party that cried about executive orders under Obama, who really didn't sign that many in comparison, he sure is trying to throw as much shit against the wall as he can. Including something that he cannot do, like this EO he wants to do here, and that bullshit "patriot education" bullshit.

    What evidence do you have to suggest this? Considering he has only LOST support since 2016. And even has a lot of ex staffers that have come out against him. Biden is polling steadily between 7 and 10 points higher than Trump the entire time.

    And even his first win, he didn't win by a landslide there was 77k gullible voters that won it for Trump. He has gotten less EC votes than Obama did in both elections, so does that mean that Obama got 2 landslide wins?

    So please, drive by poster, give me anything you base this on.

    he may well be buried under a landslide of bullshit since it's piling up everywhere around him

    I am curious how this plays out. Unlike merric garland where it was something that happened early in the year and a lot of people kind of gotten over ramming through a nomination 40some days before an election seems like that would be pretty motivating for the democrats and questionable for the GOP because they are getting what they want voting or not voting for trump won't change the outcome.

    Back this up? How it could be a landslide, when he has consistently polled at the very least 7 points behind Biden (Which, AFAIK, is more than the biggest difference between Clinton and Trump at any point in 2016).
    Dont get me wrong, he can win, and it's even more possible with all of the ratfuckery that he's doing to the proccess, but i cant see a landslide win of Trump.

    Especially since Russia is helping him again, and he is doing nothing to stop it.
