It would definitely mess up my key card for work. Which I have not been using but someday will need again.

But kind of a nifty excuse for not going to work, "sorry, but the vaccine made me magnetic and now my key card doesn't work so I can't get in".

Yeah, I have had a magnetic ass in the past and ruined multiple hotel cards….until I realized it was actually the magnet on my purse, or when I ruined a bunch of Paris metro cards not realizing it was the magnet on my watch band….but the vaccine has not made me magnetic. Good grief.

There was a woman testifying for a state hearing and she insisted that vaccines make you magnetic.
Turns out you can treat that using talcum powder.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Dang, girl.

All this "Magnets, how do they work" is reminding me that Insane Clown Posse turned out to be surprisingly sensible about vaccines. I hope I am remembering that correctly.

I guess they're professionally crazy, not in their personal day-to-day life.
I'll give the nephew some leeway on account of being an 11-year old, but I'm pretty sure if lightning strikes were killing more than half a million people a year in the US alone we'd be seeing it on the news 24/7. Assuming television broadcasting antennas hadn't all been melted into slag by that point.

Ugh a friend of mine from college in Arkansas just got covid despite being fully vaxxed. I mean, she had a mild case, fever headache and congestion, nothing hospitalizing but still. Ugh.

Yeah, that sort of thing is why I'm in no rush to get back to the office, even though I'm fully vaxxed. I'm glad it's not too severe for her.
I did not get magnetic powers or 5G. My hair's a bit curlier than before the pandemic, but then most of my greys are coming in curly, and there are quite a few more of them now, so that's probably why. If Pfizer had a jab that made your hair curl they would have sold it to Garnier years ago.

This is why we need herd immunity! (The real kind you get from high vaccination rates, not the bullshit kind where we just let everyone get Covid.)
We've talked about a cross-country family road trip this summer if the Canadian border doesn't open up, but I'm kind of terrified that we'd be putting the unvaccinated 10 year-old at risk traveling through anti-vax parts of the country.
