I'd agree. Today's market moves are all about short-term, short-view market (irrational*) exuberance --> aka HOPE for a vaccine. *Credit Alan Greenspan

In due fairness, the markets don't like ambiguity. They like clear resolution.

Deaths in ND by age group (644 total): 80+: 406 (63%) 70-79: 125 (19.4%) 60-69: 64 (9.9%) 50-59: 29 40-49: 11 30-39: 7 20-29: 1 10-19: 1 0-9: 0

A (by Pfizer's own release) 90% effective at best vaccine will inoculate a portion of the herd.

Minnesota - mask mandate North Dakota - no mask mandate South Dakota - no mask mandate All three - cases* exploding *Cases.

Mister Biden is calling for unity ... with folks that were called deplorable, Nazis, ugly, and chumps.

How is this? I’d say that’s a call.

271 Check mark

2000: Some called it for Gore.

By that standard shouldn’t all games be canceled?

Teeder11 can claim to have won the President race and be as valid as a claim by either Trump or Biden. (Congrats Teeds!) Why? None have certified results by states nor do they have a vote by the electors (the electoral college).

The media does not declare a winner. There is a process that must be executed. State legislatures certify results and electors to the electoral college. I find it fascinating that right after “media declared a winner” the coalition of state legislatures tested a link to this. https://www.ncsl.org/research/elections-and-campaigns/after-the-voting-ends-the-steps-to-complete-an-election.aspx

Even when the word appears everywhere in just one overnight news cycle. Good demographics must spread fast in the overnight news rooms.

Esquire, if I may, do you telegraph, or as you say, forecast, the nature and proof of you suit (claim, allegations, evidence) before you make your filings? At most, I’d expect, you’d announce that you’ll be brining suit.

But the same word ends up on ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, CNN, et al? Hint: The NYT more than likely first used the word and the rest glommed on — orchestras follow conductors.

@dynato — A singular corporate vision/mission statement from all branches and divisions of a single media outlet (Sinclair) is ... well ... expected. You walk into an Ace Hardware and you seem the same red vests, signage, and product lines in every one wherever, don’t you? Now when all the various outlets, not under a single ownership umbrella, sound alike (gravitas, grifter) please explain that.

Yeah, “gravitas” in all of these peoples’ extentive daily lexicon.

5-4 or 6-3? If I set the over-and-under at 5.5 vs 3.5 what would you take?

Today’s words of the day? Baseless Widespread Listen for them. You’ll hear them in nearly every major media outlet. Someone is setting a narrative (aka programming your brain for you).

Really? I heard JBD is kinda OK at D. Same for Kierstad.

Michigan GOP on television making that claim earlier today. This could be fun. The most advanced nation on earth can’t count, even using software as crutch.

You bet I legally conceal carry my .40 at times. I’ve had a rabid coyote walk out of a tree line with malice at me. And I’ve been in the wrong convenience store at the wrong time. Neither of those times was I properly equipped; but, I won’t be fooled again. PS - the ugliest feeling in the world is seeing a robber pointing a gun at a store clerk and knowing there’s not a thing you can do to stop it or help.

Virus. Gonna. Virus. Next question.

Grifter? Grifter. Was that word in your (not you jdub, the plural greater ‘your’ reading this) common vocabulary until recently? A couple years back it was ‘gravitas’ as the word to use to sound “in the know.” We are all subconsciously being programmed by media of all ilks. Because they pick a word and echo chambers it upon us all. In doing so they set their narrative.
