I'm interested in being just not civil, but excellent in interacting with others of different viewpoints in an online world where we can so viciously defend our echo chambers and be so dismissive of other perspectives.
Because this is less and less possible here, I'm largely offline and am not sure if I'll be returning. It was fun back when civility was a trend on qoto.

@JackPosobiec: "Wikipedia Founder Says the Project Has Abandoned Neutrality Policy, is ‘Badly Biased’"
I had registered for my first marathon that would have been this past weekend, had it not been for the Chinese Corona virus. Another time, it seems.
Went #running on Thursday while on a work conference call. Having to stop to talk to an international group on a call... is not conducive to a good running pace.
But after the call was done I ran my fastest mile ever - less than 6 minutes!
I've only been running since the last week of August and am still not in great shape with plenty of weight to lost to be at a "healthy weight," but the last few months is the longest I've consistently run in my life. Hoping the habit sticks.

Biden says that if you #blieveallwomen you should not vote for him.
#Biden said overnight that he doesn’t remember Tara #Reade. "I wouldn't vote for me if I believed Tara Reade."

What if the people best qualified to determine their risk calculations are individuals and communities, not national experts? What if experts ought to provide us information such that we can calculate our decisions in our local communities, rather than one-size-fits-all policies? https://www.twitter.com/ScottAdamsSays/status/1260964742601904128

I'm part of the LEAST oppressed generation in all of human history, but huge swathes of my generation can't stop whining about how 'oppressed' they are.

A week of mandatory use of face masks and I'm beginning to understand why Darth Vader is always so grumpy.

Not sure everyone will be infected but the original argument was to allow for the health care system to manage the load. That should continue to be the concern, opening up as much as possible.
Everything we do has unintended consequences. Considering that fact should be a part of everything we do. It's why I advocate liberal democracy and a mix of socialism and capitalism. No dogma.

@design_RG ITs abomidable to call out an actual sexual abuser because it shows support for someone who joked about sexual abuse once behind closed doors?
My support is for third party but if the choice is between biden and Trump I will 100% take trump over biden anyday. Bidens sexual abuse is unacceptable
Plus as I said he is a friend of the family, biden has spent the night at my dad's and mom's ranch. I know him well enough to know he is many ordersof magnitude worse than trump (whose family has also been at the ranch)

@design_RG
And uet trump has never once been recorded touching a woman i appropriately. Biden on the other hand does it every time a camera is pointed at him... Trump doesnt hold a candle to biden when it comes to sexual misconduct, not even close.
