Standing still while failing to conceal major shortness of breath exudes strength, power, majesty, and pure animalistic virility.

You got me wondering why that is - why do we think of blue as cold, when blue light is actually more energetic than red light?

So I googled "why do we percieve blue as cold"...and the first hit was a 20-years-old thread from this site. Which didn't actually tell me anything useful.

It's part of the Doppler effect, light appears blue because we are rotating towards it, sunrise ect. Evening, dusk, we are rotating away from it is why it appears reddish.

Not to discount any of the comments about blue vs red stars and their temps.
 
Dumbass orange menace made the WH photographers reshoot his entrance back into the WH.
Still did not have his mask on.
So its possible that he made those people stay in his COVID-19 + maskless presence for over 30+ minutes?

Red light is "warm" because fire puts out red-orange light. It's the artificial light that people have been using for tens of thousands of years for their primary light source outside of the sun. Which is a whole lot of human connection to fire light. And I mean, also, the sun's light is red in the morning and night, both when it's getting warm to start the day, and when the warmth is starting to fade as the sun goes away.

Blue light, especially coming from a lamp, isn't red, doesn't have the connotation of fire, and is "colder" than red light.

That's pretty much about it. It's a function of culture, the software of human beings. In the best timeline future, fire light will be very rare compared to blue light, and probably won't have the same association with "warmth", since there won't be any cultural history of fire providing the majority of light. In the best timeline future.

In the worst/most likely timeline future, given how the world works now, I think fire light may return as the main way humans get light besides the sun.

Jim Acosta just said on Anderson Cooper's show that the shitshow (my word) on the WH balcony shoot was not an Evita moment, it was a Covita one.

since the WH is pretty much a cesspool, he might go with a different strategy: self isolate and never reveal a positive test result. Keep away until he test neg for active infection. That way he never gives us the satisfaction of a positive test 🙂

I don't like his odds of not requiring hospitalization if positive.

The grimace on his face while struggling to stuff his mask into his jacket pocket said the most to me. He's struggling.

Chris Coumo just called Trump a "covidiot" on live TV!:laughing:

Is he a member here?

Trump is actually dumber than you think. He has no grasp of science. Worse, he looks askance at science. He feels an affinity with people with that attitude. If he took a science class he'd be apt to fail.
 
He's back at White House and first thing he does is pull off his mask. lol Being pro mask is like repudiating white supremacists to this buffoon, he just can't do it.

This moron only sees his own image. All you people that work for him can get fucked, also covid19.

Here is a thread with a Regeneron position statement on stem cell research, which says they do use human embryonic stem cells that are approved for research through in vitro fertilization.

This the ultimate republican projection turn around. Q claims dems are eating kids to stay young. Trump uses farmed "babies" to live.


*I personally have no issue with farming stem cells, but republicans sure do.

From the CDC:

65–74 years		41,866


What three things do these nearly 42,000 people have in common?
1) they died from Covid-19
2) they are in the Donald's age group
3) they were not treated at Walter Reed with every experimental treatment available, by a team of at least a dozen doctors.

Don't take medical advice from this idiot!
 
"“He’s not yet in the second phase of COVID,” Chin-Hong said. “We call it falling off the cliff.” "

“There are so many things that are abnormal... You don’t put a patient with COVID with a cloth mask in a hermetically sealed space with no ventilation and recirculated air, and the other people in the car are wearing the wrong mask (ventilated) as well,” Chin-Hong said. “It’s like if you locked yourself in a closet with someone who had COVID and you only had cloth masks.”

If you get the virus you will not get any of the treatments he got, not one. He's full of shit about the treatments, it's just a lie, a fabrication, and his saying "the vaccines are coming momentarily." Anyone who believes one thing he says is kidding themselves.

Edit: No, actually there's one treatment he got that you can get and that's the aspirin. But the Remdesivir, the Regeneron antibody cocktail, the Dexamethazone, no way.
