    I like listening to Joe. And I always wonder what everyone complains about. But then I heard an anti-vax rant he did that was completely ill-informed. Made me a bit sad. https://yo…

    > “I decided the risk was worth it” It’s funny though how you say this phrase for a vaccine and not for the hundreds of other riskier situations you face daily. “I drove a car…risk…

    4 billion people have been vaccinated. Don’t oh think you have your risk numbers wrong? Do you think you are consistent in your risk judgement across all parts of your life? E.g ha…

    Same. Best purchase in a long time. Can’t believe I was wondering if it would be worth it. The VR UI paradigms are really nice.

    I think we just need new content ratings. We don’t show children 18+ content because they are emotionally and mentally unable to process it. A lot of the left seem unable to do the…

    Imagine a giant athlete the size of Arnold Schwarzenegger at his peak decides to transition and has to match a testosterone level to compete. Lol. It’s ridiculous.

    Climate change is not directly proportional to co2 in the atmosphere. To reverse it requires large reductions. China, India, US. Australia’s production and usage is a rounding erro…
