Dr James Phillips, who according to the Beeb will probably be looking for alternative employment works at Walter Reed, tweeted that Trump is an idiot for doing that, and that anyone else in his hermetically sealed vehicle should quarantine for two weeks.

Edit: from the Beeb again:

“ In that video he also said his illness is teaching him a lot about coronavirus:

"It’s been a very interesting journey - I learned a lot about Covid-19.

I learned it by really going to school. This is the real school.

This isn’t the ‘let’s read the book’ school. And I get it. And I understand it.

And it’s a very interesting thing, and I’m going to be letting you know about it."

How can someone with access to everything he has as president of the US - or, you know, anyone who hasn’t been under a fucking rock for the past six fucking months - make such incomprehensibly stupid decisions?

He just did a short drive past for the supporters outside the hospital.

Because he can’t just isolate in a room tweeting, as I imagine is the medical advice, he has to put as many people at risk as possible to massage his fragile ego.

I don’t know if they’re just not very good at this because they don’t regularly do press conferences to tell the world about someone’s medical situation, or if they’re receiving some pressure from the politicos to not tell the whole story.

Watched about 2 minutes of the updates on Trump’s health from the medical team.

A great deal of “oh I’m so proud to be here what an honour yada yada” and apparently they need everyone to talk about different aspects of treatment rather than just one of the presumably highly trained medical personnel saying “yeah, shit’s cool so far, monitoring how it goes”

I’ll give you a tentative yes, if you need the numbers or a replacement.

I find leaning forward a bit so you can see the line longer helpful, while also considering the car an extension of whichever foot is closer to the outside of the car. Keep an eye on the line and try to put it just to the left of your foot (assuming a left-hand drive car) to be close to the middle.

Either that or always reverse into a spot with a backup cam heh.

But yeah, as long as the car is mostly within the lines, you’ll be golden. Other people parking next to you will likely adjust slightly if you’ve parked too much to one side. As long as you have enough space to open the door wide enough to get out, you’ve parked your car well.

I have seen cars parked comfortably in two spaces, so as long as you’re not that guy, you’re alright.

With a bunch of Republican senators coming down with the current plague, how will that affect the confirmation vote for Barrett, if at all?

A hug hole sounds like a euphemism for the kind of place Buffalo Bill made his woman suit.

“Going well, I think”? Not buying it, Donald is never that unsure.

Trump receiving the experimental antibody treatment makes me think of CKII, and wonder why castration was not the first choice of his court physician.

That's right, I'm 17% an American NazBol.

But it's probably because I support gun rights...

Colour me surprised!

...and the people who I want to have gun rights are minorities.

Colour me less surprised!

Didn’t answer all the questions first time through :o

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Bit of a lefty.

“Left is Right!” was my fave slogan in LCS.

You know it’s an issue for your dad to say no to your brother, and you have difficulty trusting your brother.

If you now can’t trust your dad to protect your property from your profligate brother, who has wrecked his property and your dad’s property, you need to insert the possibility into your dad’s existence that you’ll take the car away from him because he doesn’t respect your ownership of the car, even if you have no intention of doing that.

His tactics didn't seem to work when I early voted a week or two ago.  I was the only one at the poll.
I am sure there will be some way for your vote to be mysteriously lost or invalidated or even 'corrected'.
well fuck guess I wasted my time then
yeah, and the time of the person who now has to fix your bullshit, scrub.

or the person that was going to impersonate you and vote the right way the first time.

jeez man, way to go, actually doing your civic duty.

I'll only accept a monarch who's from north carolina.

Adam Leroy Lane?

Or John Cocke, but they missed a trick by not naming him Richard.
