I expect the Brazilian president to have a fatal accident.

Or maybe suicide or a robbery gone wrong.

Italian man wears fake arm in crazy attempt to avoid getting COVID-19 jab
By Yaron Steinbuch
December 3, 2021

An Italian man thought he had an ace up his sleeve to circumvent his country’s COVID-19 vaccine mandates — but was busted when he showed up for his shot wearing a fake arm, according to a report.

The creative anti-vaxxer may have paid hundreds of euros for the silicone prosthetic, which he wore to the vaccine center in Biella, a town in the northern Piemonte region near Turin, the Guardian reported.

The 50-year-old — who sought to avoid the jab but still get the so-called Green Pass — signed a consent form and lifted up his sleeve for the health care worker, who didn’t notice anything amiss at first.

But when the woman touched the faux limb, she realized something was odd, told the man to remove his shirt and discovered the trickster’s strong-arm tactic.

For that kind of money, he could have just bribed the girl to squirt the shot in the sink and fill out the Green Pass.

Why did he comply with that order? Should've just stormed out and tried his luck at some other location.

When you find somebody willing to take a bribe in exchange, let me know.

The Pure Blood Club

We need a logo and a catch phrase.

"They hate us cause they anus."

Almost everyone I’ve hung out with over the last 10 days has positive tests now. My smell went today. Fatigued but still functioning.

Not my cup of tea, but totally forgot we went to the strip club last Saturday. 10 of us piled into a minivan for a 25 min drive each way. Then on the way home did a drunk stop at McDonalds that took 25 minutes. Half are vaccinated and tested positive. I think it was my SIL from thanksgiving who gave it to us and we gave it to everyone else in the van ride.

When my shit doesn’t stink I either became super cool or I have covid. I have no congestion either. So it’s not like my sinuses are plugged up. I get now why people say it’s weird. It also happened over two hours and was noticeable in real time. Wife made coffee when she got home from a work out and didn’t smell a thing. So decided to shower. Nothing. Could not smell a thing.

As usual I’ll be reckless. I’ll stay away from older family, but I gonna keep living my life. If vaccines and masks work I feel no shame. I’m doing neither.

Clearly the vaxx does not work.

Wife too? She must really be upset, since she got the jab, suffered the side effects, and still got Covid.

I heard that the Wuhan is a lot worse if you don't get vaccinated.

That statement comes from the CDC web site. No way to verify a statement like that. But that is the excuse they use to push the jab now that the CDC had to admit the jab does not prevent anyone from catching, carrying, or spreading Covid.

She's tough. Sickest outside of giving birth I've seen her in a decade. She's fine though, not even remotely thinking of a doc visit beside the lady doc visit on Thursday, likely because of the vax. Honestly think she's more pissed at me for the I told you so comment.

Wife and two SIL's were vaccinated and have it right now. The fall out from the strip club and minivan ride is still unfolding. Kids weren't in the car (obviously), but I think 3 kids tested positive from their parents. And I think 3-4 in the van are positive and I was the only one not vaccinated. My wife is pissed, just not sure at who. My one SIL is angry we aren't getting tested. She thinks we're selfish.

Masks don't work and heavy anecdotal evidence first hand this week shows vaccines don't work. We're all young though and with no land whales or existing conditions. I'm at the point of what the fuck am I going to do? I can't stop living because I have the sniffles. I'll stay away from our moms, but that's about it. Going with the wife and kids to breakfast with Santa tomorrow.

We did the 15 days to stop the spread and we've moved on. I'll be conscious of out of shape and elderly people, but I'm living my damn life. You only have one.

Do the at home Covid test. Open up a beer. If you can smell it and taste it, you don't have Covid.

I thought it was only valid with eating pussy.

It is easy to miss what’s happening, given the endless screeching from the elite media and outliers like Bill de Blasio’s idiotic effort to force vaccinations on kids in New York City.

But ask yourself these seven questions:

1: Do you have any idea how many Americans are now dying with/from/near Covid each day? The answer is still over 1,000 on average, but the daily death count - which was a national media-fueled obsession for a year - has been entirely forgotten.

2: What percentage of 5-11 year-olds have been Covid vaccinated? More than a month after jabs for kids were approved, the answer is barely 15 percent - not even one child out of six - despite a massive advertising and media campaign. And I can promise you that number is not going to budge much going forward. The parents who were dumb enough to give their kids a quasi-experimental and short-lasting “vaccine” for an illness that even before Omicron was a cold for most have already done so.

3: When was the last time you heard anyone suggest mandating Covid vaccines for kids? See question 2. Even deep blue state politicians have gone silent on this issue (again, except for the moronic soon-to-be-former mayor of New York). And even the craziest vaccine fanatics have mostly found other issues to froth over. Elections have consequences, and the Virginia election sure did.

4: How many different federal district courts have now ruled the Biden vaccine mandates unconstitutional? I believe the answer is ALL. All the courts.

5: What are the odds the Supreme Court follows suit? Yeah, that bet has been taken off the board. Too likely. Too much action on one side.

6: How many companies have “suspended” or “paused” their vaccine mandates since the courts stepped in? Not quite all, in this case. But many, including bellwethers like Oracle (which as a couple of readers noted to me is particularly telling since it is known for treating employees like widgets).

The labor market is tight and companies don’t want to fight with 20-40% of their employees, especially since the vax nuts are now indicating they are going to try to make boosters a standard or quasi-standard to “remain” vaccinated. (Remain? Vaccination by definition should be a permanent or at least semi-permanent - as in lasting a decade or more - condition.)

7: Speaking of boosters, do you know anyone who actually believes the public health authority/media attempt to rewrite history and pretend that boosters within six months of vaccination were planned?

Here’s the thing about the booster. I don’t think the booster will work. I think it will fade within six to eight months. The Israelis are four months in, and they are clearly concerned, even though cases haven’t actually spiked yet.

But in the unlikely event it DOES work, great! No one will need a fourth shot.

And in the much more likely event it doesn’t? We have already seen exponential decay in willingness to take a third shot, and that will surely continue to the fourth, especially as side effects continue to pile up. Even the dullest MSNBC viewers will eventually figure out they are better off taking their chances.

So either way, the third shot is the end of the line.

And all this was BEFORE Omicron, the little cold that could.

Now, this analysis is US-focused. Europe is older, more frightened, leans harder left, and has national and supra-national bureaucracies with powers that make woke American progressives drool. Australia and New Zealand are in even worse shape, as they have never quite shaken the dream of zero Covid.

But I am increasingly convinced that by this time next year, barring some medical catastrophe, we will see all the Covid mandates - including the vaccine push! - the way we now look at school closures (and police defunding) - as regrettable and never-to-be-repeated episodes of societal insanity.

Even the Atlantic is catching on.


And let me tell you, if the Atlantic is catching on, the end is nigh.

Oh well. It was fun (for the vaccine billionaires) well it lasted.

Is it just me or are other people with a brave browser not able to play videos on patnet without them constantly resizing small - not quite as small - small - not quite as small.

The past few days they've been unwatchable unless I full screen them.

I have the same problem too.
I usually click the original link.

Wow, thanks for telling me. I don't see that on Brave.

What browser and OS do you see this problem on?

please edit this and post just one video at a time, thanks

I do generate the html on the fly each time.

I had frameborder="0" but I added the other two just now. Is it any better for you now?

I don't think you are generating what is between <iframe ... ></iframe> each time - that's what I was suggesting.

When I reload this page (or just go to https://www.patrick.net/post/1329897/?comment_id=1805611

I get the same thing. If I quote that, it's still the old encoding. You will only see the effect when you click play.

Need a VM?

It is indeed all generated each time the page is loaded.

I see the flickering now, so I have something to debug locally at least.

richwicks says

a scrollbar is produced which constantly changes the size of the embedded video.

yup ^

Patrick says

Ah, there were two problems:

1. The html for each comment is store in the db as is, not regenerated
2. unknown parameters to iframes are stripped

I fixed the second one, so now we should be able to see that video without blinking. Let's see...

No, something is still fucked up...
