What can be done by presidential mandate can be undone by presidential mandate. If the Democrats weren’t buffoons they might try doing the mandating at the beginning of their term, when it can be in place for 4-8 years, instead of at the end of it when it will be in place for a month at best.

It must be very situational on when it works, because the FBI has specifically cited a face mask as a reason that it still hasn’t caught whoever left a bunch of bombs laying around on Jan 6.

Wasn’t his face revealed in cab footage where he’d taken his mask off within like, a day?

I think there is also probably a difference of scope in what is leveraged when Kroger is trying to get your facial pattern while you’re in the store to track where you go and get more data to sell advertisers vs like, the lengths gone to by the state in order to catch someone who shot a rich person dead in the street.

Can’t be facial-recognized if you always wear an N95 mask in stores ;)

According to OP’s previous comments the dev of this has spent 600k of their own money on this. If that claim is legitimate then feel free to draw your own conclusions about why someone with 600k to burn would spend it on an NFT crypto reddit, but without images.

It’s not nitpicking, it was the literal denial reason. You are explaining why you think it was okay for them to do, but that’s not the reason given for a denial. They need to be able to defend what their denial actually says, not what you think it means, in the event of a lawsuit or appeal.

“Medically necessary” has a legal meaning, and it’s not dependent on whether you consider them a ‘useless eater.’

The reason for denial given was that the doctor didn’t prove the treatment was medically necessary, not that it costs too much.

Why are his nose and ears so red in that picture? Was this taken outside in winter or something?

If you think mutual aid is thoughts and prayers you have a warped view of what it is.

If you think nobody should give mutual aid to struggling people instead of shitting down their throat about how they deserve it because of where they live, then I doubt you have anything productive to say ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Good opportunity to get your tetanus booster, if you haven’t within the past 10 years; Tdap protects against tetanus, whooping cough, and diphtheria.

You’re literally asking how direct mutual aid improves anyone’s life?

lol.

Seems like the option you’re in love with is crowing about poor people living in gerrymandered districts dying.

My option is direct mutual aid. Your option is masturbating furiously online about who you want to see get killed. We are not the same.

I’m sure you think you’re cute but 1) phrasing it this was isn’t actually legally protecting you and 2) “commit murder or you deserve to die” is a deranged response to seeing people living in disease-ridden places because the medical professionals they interact with literally aren’t allowed to encourage them to get the flu shot.

Damn, just gonna double down on “people deserve to die for living in a red state”, huh?

Everyone knows the flu only targets republicans and there aren’t massive health disparities among people of color in the south as a whole, but especially among black people, who are nearly 1/3rd of the population of Louisiana. Guess they should have had the good sense to be born somewhere else.

Anyone who wants to see everything Musk owns crash and burn?

I don’t know that I would be able to keep my sanity if some crooked judge sent me to juvie for money and got a presidential pardon.

Doesn’t that imply it was the public that needed to be appeased? lol
