Chewing gum and walking at the same time is fine with me. We should not have a problem doing both, this is not the beginning of the pandemic when the availability of the vaccine was a footrace. We have enough to hit everyone in our nation and the companies are still banging them out.

So it is not the amount of vaccines available from what I have heard, it is getting these nations everything that they need where they need it that seems to be a big part of the issue (from the little I understanding I have of the economics of distributing the vaccine from hearing a few things here and there).

MLA's assistant claimed by COVID-19
The constituency assistant of a Manitoba cabinet minister who has refused to reveal his COVID-19 immunization status has died from the virus, sparking allegations the MLA's influence, in part, led her to reject the vaccine.

Gladys Hayward Williams died Nov. 18 after battling COVID-19, a source close to the family told the Free Press Monday. She worked for Infrastructure Minister and Springfield-Ritchot MLA Ron Schuler, the only member of the legislature who has refused to divulge his vaccination status.

"She died as a direct result of the misinformation that had been fed to her by Ron Schuler as well as others in the community," said the source.

Hayward Williams, 70, was "perfectly healthy" until contracting the virus then dying in St. Boniface Hospital, the source said. She wasn't vaccinated in spite of being urged to do so by those closest to her, they said.

"This is preventable — this is tragic," said the source, who felt the cause of her death is being "covered up... The truth should be out there."

Hayward Williams' obituary makes no mention of her having COVID-19 and doesn't mention Schuler by name, only that she worked as a constituency assistant "to the MLA."

The source questioned Schuler's motive for not commenting on his assistant's death.

"I feel that it's being done not out of respect for the family, but trying to not make Schuler look bad."

Wife asked me to, trying to get a bit healthier and it has been like 20 years of constant heavy smoking. Tbh, it's real hard to get high and not that fun anymore, so would be nice to see if it can get fun again instead of being just part of the routine. It's like smoking cigarettes at this point.

Not quite sure how long, no set date to go back, maybe around xmas/new years.
Might I suggest edibles after the break. At 61 and smoking since 14 :( I’m the same re I don’t get that high. I’ve switched to making gummies and I gotta say it’s a whole new game, so to speak. I eat two of these bad boys and I’m fucked up lol. One is just a nice 2-3 hour buzz without the coughing and hacking. Not to mention a batch uses an ounce of bud and it makes 120-150 which lasts me 2-3 months. I still use cartridges but just a pull or two every few days. I just got home from seeing my daughter and was 5 days without it. Found a connection while on the island (not a lot of pot there) this time, so next time (if there is one given the bullshit new variant) will be a bit more enjoyable ;). 22EAFB03-0D93-41A0-80C5-E0E28C2D535D.jpeg

I can’t take edibles. If I take them for 2 or 3 days I get severe vertigo.

Sucks.

Yeah, that and some tincture are on the agenda to make. I hope the edibles tolerance goes down as well, made a big batch of oil and would just eat a spoonful. It was pretty strong, then eventually not so much.

It's sort of like trying to give up coffee. Just mildly annoying.

Canada has barred the unvaccinated from airline and train travel, what about buses?

By oil I just meant coconut oil...and I guess there was also this big god damn batch of RSO I wound up with on accident. Thought I was just giving away some old weed, but it wound up as part of a big pile of old weed people tossed in to make a lot of RSO. So I ended up getting a bunch back.

But yeah, bho and all that jazz got used to often and lost it's fun. Weed crack is right, there was this place that tried to open as sort of an underground smoking club. I went once. It was scarily similar to being in a crack spot, nasty as hell, tables were just plywood with folding chairs, people falling out and just passing out on the ground, etc.

That was an interesting group of folks that gave me all the RSO, met a number of cool weed folks when I moved to CO but sort of lost touch, then rona came and really lost touch.

19 countries have confirmed the new variant, it's everywhere.
That’s not at all surprising. When COVID first hit last year, we were in one of the initial hot spots (Detroit area). My in laws are two counties north near Flint and my MIL kept citing the case counts in our county versus hers and saying “good thing it’s not in Genesee County yet”. We told her it hadn’t showed up in testing yet but was likely already everywhere. She looked at me cross-eyed at the time, then the counts started rising in their county too.

I've said all along that Joe Rob is an evil genus. By telling the GOP the jab is safe and effective, he is insuring they will not take it. Now with this new variant, it will just be a matter of time before we are back to 900 Republican voters a day dying.
i sincerely hope they don't waste much time
