My point wasn’t that big pharma is all bad or that they created Covid to get rich. It’s that fully trusting pharma companies with a vaccine that has barely had any time to be tested is naive. I got the first shot about two weeks ago and go back for the second in a couple weeks so I am not anti vax.

I do think there are good people inside the industry who only want to do good but the companies themselves are only there to make money and will sell you out for it. And there are always more than enough people out there they can find to do shady crap.

I completely agree with you. Big Pharma obviously does some beneficial work, and there are some good people within the companies, but that doesn't mean I trust the companies as a whole. They've caused a lot of damage out of avarice.

Not to highjack your conversation but the one bright side of this pandemic is the salaries structure at the lower end of the spectrum. Wages have been stagnant for many years and my hope is the wage increases we see are permanent.

last year most of the fast food places around here were paying 10-10.50 a hour. Now it’s 13.50-14. Still not great but it’s a improvement

The way I look at it if a couple with kids both worked full time @ $14 an hour they can at least survive and even enjoy a vaca or a few luxuries. They at least have something to work towards. This $7.25 an hour stuff is straight up bullshit, like holy hell you can't even get a Big Mac meal for an hours work, really!

So today I saw a real storm here in Cape May. A couple was fighting on the beach over her partner checking out women in thongs. She was like some Snookie Jersey lady just ripping into her partner and slamming beach chairs and shouting all sorts of profanities at him. He was pretty much just passively taking it. I mean if I think I know the girls she was referring to.....the guy is only human. Cut him some slack. Meanwhile she was strutting around sporting a bikini wedgie...

I'm not trying to sleep more, I'm trying to feel better when I don't sleep
Red bull, coffee, coke, weed


No but honestly a lot of times this stuff has to do with logistical. Maybe you're not sleeping as soundly as you should be bc of your demon spawn. Or you could try to exercise in the morning, go on a mile jog or something to get the blood flowing. Get a new pillow, etc
