we fed the cows the bird doodoo
you fed the birds arsenic and then fed the rice the arsenic bird doo doo
90% of the population could drop dead overnight and I’d still have to go to work and be put down for masking because “it makes the general public uncomfortable”
‘wtf you mean general public we’re all dying’
‘BACK TO WORK PEASANT’
Biden does racist pandering by “sealing the border with Mexico” months before Bird Flu takes off in Burgerland.
Mexico is spared the worst of the horrors.
Trump calls the Bird Flu, The Biden Flu.
I’m sure it’s fine. We learned a lot from the pandemic and people are more than willing to do anything Biden tells them to do!
not looking forward to this. have been slowly increasing my 2 week emergency food stores. as an “essential” worker however i’ll be right in the middle of it
Can’t be essential if you just quit.
trust me if this thing is even a fraction as bad as it potentially can be im quitting immediately. i guess they could have the national guard drag me there or something but i don’t think there’s even the state capacity for that anymore
but i don’t think there’s even the state capacity for that anymore
yeah you’re right on the money for that one girl. if anything they’ll just fill your position with some poor shithead in the national guard.
lol sort of related but: i remember back during early Covid we were hoping each department would get assigned a few young guardsman to help us do our shit work because of the overwhelming volume.
our shelves were bare and i had food from restaurants i had to process and pack for sale without the proper facilities. didn’t have the workforce to feed people even working 60+ hr 7 day weeks.
this was during the early few weeks of “the entire state is going to mobilize for war against covid” and everyone, regardless of politics, were getting ready for a big collective action
always thought it was funny how quickly mechanisms activated to destroy that faint consciousness
early covid was surreal. for me, my spot quickly closed down (like april 2020 we shuttered for good) so i just sat at home on my lil computer screen collecting berniebux watching everything unfold. i reentered the workforce sometime late in 2022 after most shit had popped off. idk how the fuck i would’ve coped with being employed during all of that.
It’s okay because we have a vaccine we’ll make freely and widely available before disaster strikes, right?
It’s ok because Americans trust in vaccines is higher than ever after a monumentally successful campaign against COVID-19, right?
Just bought my reusable P100 today. Time for a Costco run to buy some of those giant bags of rice and beans.
Yeah it isn’t really a “if it’s gonna happen” question but a “when is it gonna happen” with avian flu, anyway time to buy more rice and beans.
Yup, and “How bad is it gonna be?”. I don’t fully buy a 50% lethality, but with covid only being 2%… there’s still a lot of room for it to be very bad.
Anything between 5% and 10% would be utterly devastating for the world and would collapse the medical system completely (my ass would be running from my workplace in a nanosecond the minute bird flu goes full force) alongside the general infrastructure
they made bubonic plague 2 
doodoo
If H5N1 kills enough americans maybe they won’t think about entering into a direct conflict with russia and china
America’s plan for ongoing world domination is to fling plague-infected corpses (plague-infected tourists) over the city walls (over its own border walls) by catapult (via airplane, the closest thing to public transit acceptable to the AmeriBurger)
I really need to work on making an emergency kit but affording that is such a pain. Especially on top of masks.
There was a sale for certified IFAKS last week (trauma based, but not basic stuff like bandages and ibuprofen). I would’ve posted it here but wasn’t sure if it was considered shilling.
But if you don’t expect to be in a situation where you’re shot or profusely bleeding, it’s usually cheaper to plan out your kit manually and purchase them separately (and even if you do prepare for bleeding/penetration, it’s usually cheaper to buy things individually if you don’t need every piece of equipment)
It can be cringe, but I would follow the subs like r/gundeals and r/tacticalmedicine. They regularly post deals for medical kits certified by Stop The Bleed. Ignore the names, while the stuff may be “tactical”, the sites they post have gear for other medical purposes as well.
However, if you REALLY are scraping by, I would take a look at the Chinese medical kit provider Rhino Rescue. It’s been spotted being used by Ukrainians and Russians. I don’t know if China regulates or certifies stuff like this, but quality control can be spotty. The reviews on AliExpress say they’re good, Americans who swear by NAR/STB say they’re trash. But having subpar medical preparedness is better than having no medical preparedness. You can get them from amazon but Ali might be a bit cheaper.
Should now be a good time to stock up on masks an toilet paper?
who cares
Now would be a good time to buy a 9mm, but whatever floats your boat.
Time to dust off the old plague doctor outfit and stock up on tinctures and salves.
uh…what’s wrong with green bananas?
He’s saying there’s no point in waiting for them to ripen because you’ll be dead before then.
alright. Thought there was something wrong with green bananas, those are like a staple of mine
Are the MSM going to call this Yank flu, or American flu? I bet not. They’ll still find a way to blame China
