I hope they are using the MLB lively ball. PS I’d hire a major league pitcher to throw the ball for me. Besides a pitcher can go about a 100 arm flexes in a game. $35 I’m in
So, this is a metaphor for what is happening today. Here we have a guy who is just following the pack, doing what he is told without thinking about it. Sort of like our federal government telling us to do something and doing it without thinking about whether it makes sense or not. Just because someone in a position of authority tells us to do something, we are supposed to do it without thinking about it. Those who do think critically choose not to do it until they find out whether it makes sense.
They don’t get that many takers on the critical thinking side, but the ones they do get are good for about an hour before they figure out what’s going on and remove their severely-bruised heads.
When I was a kid, we had an annual Memorial Day Fair, which featured one of these, but the missiles were wet sponges, not balls. It was all-volunteer, and there was a line of kids who wanted to stick their heads through that hole.
I’m wondering how many of those who claimed their reason for not getting vaccinated was the lack of full FDA are going to find another excuse now that Pfiser has it.
Gotta remember folks, Turd Reich post point whores don’t have facts so they can’t post facts, never do research so they can never post a source. Just yappy little dogs that piss on your shoes. Kick ‘em through the goal posts and let’ em go back to getting on their knees to service the Velveeta Voldemort and fTucker Carlson. If they are so incredibly stupid as to readily and willingly believe the entertainment networks that have themselves repeatedly stated that no reasonable person should believe then there’s no hope for ‘em. So treat ’em exactly like the rabid little yappy dogs they are. See their lies, flag’ em. They not only won’t but can’t disprove their own lies without getting owned now can they? See their racism, sexism, and hate? Flag ‘em. Until they figure out that they have to abide by the same rules as everyone they’ll only spread more disinformation and hate. And that’s all they have. If you ignore lies, racism, sexism, and hate all that does is give it your OK, too. Do you want that? Of course not. Stand up. Don’t directly comment to them and that means they won’t get imaginary and totally worthless post points they whore so badly for. Pull their teeth so they have to play fair as everyone else does.
There should be a hawker on the backside of the hole-in-the-wall collecting a buck from those that want to “test their skills” in critical thinking. This will complete the capitalistic experiment, and double the profits.
Gotta say it again, if you see comments with sources (although many can’t/won’t ever include them) if they do not sound accurate, it is a simple matter to see how liable they are to be biased one way or another. Almost all might have a small degree of bias, and verifying facts isn’t hard to do but remember that if you’re not assured of a source it’s always good to investigate. There have been websites dedicated to various civil rights leaders – except owned and operated by groups with ties to white supremist groups and leaders. So take it from somebody who has been researching for many, many years – Verify. Check.
Here are a couple of good places to start that I’ve posted before -
Be accurate and when in doubt, check it out. The truth may or may not set you free but let’s be able to know when something really stinks like last week’s fish and somebody else is calling it caviar.

There is always someone who will put his opinion on the line, and there always are many others who will try to erase both the opinion and the line.
