So for years the USA has been relying on cheap labor in China. Supply lines were never interrupted. China has gotten away with murder in its sending anything it wants with little checking of its goods. Dog food with plastic in it ect. Now company's will shut down and have production disruptions due to this. And it looks like its going to be slow but will happen. Now Apple says it may not have any product later this year. How many companies will say screw this and bring back at least some of the production to the home countries? My bet is some at least. If a car does not have one part they don't make that car. This may shock corporations into keeping production here. It could lead to a boom down the road for these nation and halt the BS Chinese making everything.

It will last as long as people put up with it. Every pervert or sick person who has some off the wall fetish will push their agenda as long as they are accepted. There are only two genders. That is that. You can say you are a unicorn but its only pretend.

How can people be so obtuse to this cult? Why on earth would you play with a copperhead and think you can not get bit?

Of course they want to convert your kids Jeezzzzzz. First off they are not your friends. You are potential converts. Cut them off now and don't look back or you will potentially have issues. As kids grow up they become rebellious and if you tell them as teens not to have anything to do with them the cult will tell them you are part of Satan's world and they don't need to listen to you. You will live to regret it if you don't cut them off now.

Covid-19 (Coronavirus) - Status Update Thread
by Simon inthis topic is to focus on status updates & advice (no opinion or politics please).. status.
latest status is that it's serious, probably isn't going to be contained and most large companies are making contingency plans, cancelling large events etc... which i don't think would happen if it was just people being alarmist.
the incubation period means it may have already spread further and infected many more people than are currently known, so expect jumps in the numbers over the coming days and weeks.. tracking.

Can we really talk about BEAUTY?
by Terry incan we really talk about beauty?
(first, a necessary preamble.

beauty is an individual thing. It is not something you can explain. Nor should anyone try to. Its like , The phrase was used in 1964 by United States Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart to describe his threshold test for obscenity in Jacobellis v. Ohio.[1][2] In explaining why the material at issue in the case was not obscene under the Roth test, and therefore was protected speech that could not be censored, Stewart wrote: I shall not today attempt further to define the kinds of material I understand to be embraced within that shorthand description ["hard-core pornography"], and perhaps I could never succeed in intelligibly doing so. But I know it when I see it, and the motion picture involved in this case is not that.
