Apparently in Florida the requirement are being old, being a medical worker, or contributing to the DeSantis campaign.

Being chonky isn't a comorbidity that qualifies for the vaccine in Ohio. WHAT EVEN AM I CHONKY FOR THEN

Carbs. (I may be being transferry.)

TOTALLY carbs.

Sheesh, Tep. I just looked at Ohio's eligibility requirements, and here I was thinking MA had gotten too detailed.

Yeah, we really suck. But it seems like we're starting to get enough doses of the vaccine, because the age limit keeps dropping. Starting tomorrow, people 50 years and older can get vaccinated, which includes Tim but not me (I am 3 gotdang months away). And I didn't expect the age limit to drop to 50 so soon, so I'm assuming I'll probably be able to be vaccinated (or, I guess, try to schedule a vaccination) in a month or so. Plus, I have those all-natural, free-range, locally sourced, farm-to-table, artisanal antibodies anyway.

The stimulus bill has passed; it goes to Biden to be signed on Friday (I think it's scheduled for Friday).

ooh ... for knitters - reverse engineering pieces from movies, etc. ... also crocheters

I am relieved that the Republicans have not been able to stop absolutely everything.

I think because it was a budget thing, it only needed a majority in the Senate.

The test is going to be when HR1 gets to the Senate. It's a voting rights bill, and the way we've worked before, it would be open to the filibuster. Apparently President Senator Manchin has said he's open to modifying how the filibuster is applied, so maybe that'll get through? Here's hoping.

I'm so sorry about your uncle. He does sound like the fun and a favorite uncle. Take time to mourn and grieve.

Hil, sorry for the pain issues. I am having some with less severity and it blows.

No, I'm annoyed, but not sure if I should be.

Yeah, as I understand it we're deeply screwed for at least a decade if HR1 can't make it through the Senate because there are enough GOP-controlled state houses to gerrymander the shit out of the post-census redistricting that they could make retaining control of the House nigh impossible for the Democrats.

(Hi, my name is Susan, and I listen to way too many political podcasts all day long!)

I'm still pissed that they knocked out the minimum wage and reduced the check amounts and all that.

have burgered and feel like I should light a candle to Tep, Patron of Meal Dilemmas because that was definitely what I wanted

Maybe that's the superpower I got from the monoclonal antibodies!
