  2. My wife tested positive for it last week. I tested negative until I popped positive Sunday. We are both vaccinated. Only think I had was a fever at night that quickly broke after a few hours. I did get that IV treatment and I tested clear and am returning to work today.

  3. I jump rope a few times a week, lost about 7kg (15lb) in 3 months. Its super efficient if u just want some quick cardio. I'm at my leanest in 15 years. No access to gym (I use only office gym previously) so mainly bodyweight exercises for me.

  4. I'm a big Neil Young fan and I support the war that he has waged against commercialization of music. With that being said, Spotify made the right decision. Maybe for the wrong reason (cash vs freedom of speech) but I'm glad that it worked out as it did. Neil Young used to be a radical. Now's he's just a grumpy old man. "You kids get off my Spotify!"

  7. Sure he can do whatever he wants, but there are musicians on Spotify that I would consider more repugnant than Rogan, that he hasn't taken a stand against, ie R Kelly.

  9. I've been here too long to even bother with people like this. I just respond back with a simple "I'm sorry that the carrier damaged this during transit. Please submit a return request and I will provide a prepaid label for the return. Once the item is received in the same condition you received it, you will receive a full refund" You'd be surprised how few returns I get. Never received a negative feedback afterwards either. Nearly everyone is just looking for a discount, and I'm too petty to offer it at this point.

  11. FYI, My wife and I here in New Hampshire got covid after Christmas, we got Ivermectin and Azithromycin from a doctor in Florida and we were better in 5 days. Here in New Hampshire the state legislature will be voting to make Ivermectin legal to get at all pharmacies without a prescription.

  12. Taking a stand against a convicted child molester should be an easy and popular choice for anyone. Say what you will about Rogan, some of his guests are way more interesting and entertaining than anything traditional news is doing. Keep in mind that people reporting on such things aren't experts either, but they are gatekeepers of what they choose to share when presenting the "news". At least in longer discussions, you get a fuller picture of someone's perspective and not cherry picked soundbites.

  13. Yet, Joe Rogan has actually gotten what he's wanted, attention, coverage, and listens. The people that have taken a stance against him didn't listen in the first place. It's no different than inflammatory headlines on news sites, or "first reports" that are wrong on Twitter. It's all about the clicks and generating revenue.

  14. That was one instance out of 100s of hours of his show on this topic. Again, it's a bandwagon narrative.

  15. Neil Young had polio as a child, so he's a big proponent for vaccines. I'm assuming he didn't take aim at R Kelly because R Kelly doesn't have a podcast putting out misinformation that can harm people. I don't listen to the JRP, or Neil Young, so it's all the same to me.

  17. Calling out a private company for moderating content is not a free speech issue. Joe Rogan's rights to his show and what he says on the show extend no further than the agreement he's signed with Spotify, and I can assure you that they have very clear guidelines about what they consider acceptable speech and behavior on their platform and will allow, as would any publisher or platform--that's the company's right. If canceled on Spotify, Rogan can continue to shout what he wants on the street corner, sign on to a new platform, etc. Thus, there would be no free speech violation if Spotify elected to terminate his contract over something he said, nor would it be a free speech violation if a private employer fired you over something you said. To be clear. Young wasn't just coming out of left field here--he was backing the open letter signed by over 200 health professionals asking for Spotify to moderate the content that they allow on their platform.

  20. You people are getting Freedom of Speech wrong. Being right or wrong doesn't negate your right to speak, no more than porn or religion can be used as a reason to deny it. If you have never seen it then you really owe it to yourself to watch a 1981 movie called First Monday In October, starring Walter Matthau And Jill Clayburgh. They are both Supreme Court Justices, one right wing, one left, arguing about porn. As Matthau's character states "So its crap. What if it is crap? That's not the point. Crap's got the right to be crap." So many people want to ban speech just because they feel that it is crap.

  22. Just acknowledge and move on. Unless you can marshal evidence to show that the member did, in fact, receive the correct item, pursuing an appeal isn't worth it. Ultimately, that is what they are asking in that situation...not that the item you sent in was correct, but that the item the member received was correct. If this was an item that you sent to Amazon for stickering and you got other similar complaints from customers, it's probably a situation where Amazon incorrectly stickered it during receiving. They screwed up a ton of my items like that last year.

  23. If someone like Drake or Taylor Swift made this stand Spotify might have to think on it. I would guess most Neil Young fans are not streaming. I do like the stand he took here. Rogan is a butthole.

  24. I doubt that. It's too polished, produced and executed to work in such a short timeframe of four weeks--throwing in a mid season episode to save the series. Mando's narrative has been the traveler to introduce Fett, Ashoka, and likely Kenobi's stories into Disney+ and these Mando interludes serve as connective tissue between one story arc and the next. I gotta say that I love that Grogu sized observation blister where the Astro-mech used to be in the Naboo star fighter. The whol episode, including the joy ride down beggar's canyon, was pure fan service and it's what BoBF needed, even if Fett wasn't in it.

  25. Yeah, the misinformation narrative it a little uninformed and he's just jumping on the bandwagon with the media narrative. The media are scared to death of platforms like JRE, his viewership is much larger than traditional media these days.

  26. Worse episode of Book of Boba Fett, but one of the BEST episode of The Mandalorian!

  27. Episode was awesome. Directed by Bryce Dallas Howard, too. One pretty major complaint, and it’s the chief one I have about BoBF— the most interesting parts of the show have nothing to do with Fett. We got an excellent episode of the Mandalorian. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  28. I can still recite the Preamble of the Constitution because of Schoolhouse Rocks! Sums this whole thing up beautifully.

  29. Getting constitution lessons from 80s movies is on par with getting medical advice from Joe Rogan.

  30. I still get to enjoy Neil Young's catalog on SiriusXM. Even though I already have most of his CD's and can still stream them all on Amazon Music. Spotify can stream fine on Amazon Echo. SiriusXM Lands Neil Young’s Music After Spotify Removal – The Hollywood Reporter

  31. Neil young aint so young anymore. Irrelevant old prick thought he was gonna come and say “it’s either me or him!” But he bit more than he could chew. I’m not taking anything away from him as a musician but half the people here never heard of him, the other half haven’t heard from/about him in a loooong time so his latest attempt to be relevant didn’t work. He gone! maybe if it was what’s her name….cardi b or some other zero… sorry for this writing…Fat fingers and lazy. What’s vaccinated? 2 shots? 3? 4? 25? SMH

  32. You really believe that? I know plenty of unvaccinated people who have had it and been fine including myself. Everyone has been sick lately and the worst around here are the vaccinated. Your statement is true on a case by case basis. Not some blanket statement. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  41. Follows that question with "waist." Not sure how you wasted his time, looks like he wasted his own and yours instead. Only feedback left by him is 1 negative. Block list is getting bigger by the day.

  43. I have at times made it very clear that the boxes are not in mint condition, and should not be considered as such, and if you're looking for mint, please buy elsewhere.

  44. Just received 75290 Cantina this afternoon. Paid 208.40, so about 1/3 off RRP. Box is a bit damaged, and opened on one side, but the contents are all present, sealed, and undamaged. I'm pleased with this as I doubt it will be available for that price at general retail (this was from Stockmustgo - a liquidator of damaged sets).
