My wife works in a hospital where people wear masks every fucking day and don't complain about it -- amazingly, that's possible.
I think Less’s Adder point wasn’t about US style mandates. Pretty sure he meant Adder’s statements that we should have done what China did.

I do not understand the first sentence?

Someone (Hank?) was posting about having pasta with canned tuna in Italy, so I thought I'd share the bruschetta recipe I made tonight, courtesy of a wine class I'm in.

2 cups white beans (you can use canned -- I cooked them the night before)
3/4 cup canned mackerel
1/2 small red onion, chopped finely
1/3 cup Sicilian olives, chopped finely
juice of one lemon
3 tbspns parsley
1/4 cup EVOO
salt
pepper

Mix most ingredients. Add EVOO and season, and put in the fridge for 2 hours. Take out 30 minutes before serving. Slice and toast a baguette, and spoon onto toasted slices. Drizzle with more EVOO and salt and pepper to taste.

Goes well with a 2017 Amarotti Trebbiano, if you can find it.

eta: Hardest thing about the recipe was finding canned mackerel.

Thanks. I'm going to a pot luck at Penske's tomorrow and I'll bring this! Oh, one thing though, I'm pretty sure he isn't going to serve 2017 Amarotti Trebbiano. How would it go with box Chianti?

We've got a restaurant in Boston that specializes in canned fish. Cans from all over.

My mother in law would tell you “We've got" is redundant. I mean, she is dead, so she won't. But she would have.

Which word in "masks work, but mandates do not" eluded your sofistic failure? Or are you using "compliance" as code for "mandate?"

Is China's mandate going to work?

Explain how this: " Masks reduce the spread of the Covid virus by preventing virus particles from traveling from one person’s nose or mouth into the air and infecting another person. Laboratory studies have repeatedly demonstrated the effect" fits with this:
"Anybody who wants to wear a snug, high-quality mask can do so and will be less likely to contract Covid."
I am missing your point. Both can be true, and the fact that mandates don't work is also true.

Prohibition may have prevented some people from getting alcohol some of the time, but a mandate short of locking everyone up (Hi Adder!) to prevent home brewing, would have required a panopticon of state surveillance to prevent it.

What does "work" mean? Halt the pandemic? Save a bunch of lives? No and yes, respectively.

The best bruschetta I've ever had is a porchetta bruschetta with mozzerella. Porchetta is one of god's most perfect foods, and to throw it on top of good bread with melted cheese on top is just showing off.

When my brother gets back to me I'll post the porchetta recipe.

ETA: https://chewtown.com/2015/08/italian...an-roast-pork/

This is the porchetta we made. It’s unbelievably good.

Ending all civilization, yes, would save Covid deaths. It's one thing where you're talking about 2,000 deaths a day as in the beginning of the pandemic with no vaccines or treatments.

While I believe every life is precious, there are so many different levels of mitigation that are available between full out "let er rip" and "anyone leaving the house goes to the camp."

We are talking about Shanghai residents seeing pillowcases full of pets clubbed to death and people locked in their houses eating elmer's glue.

There's so little critical thinking. Everything is a pure binary view: Closed or open. On or off. If it doesn't stop everything, better to do nothing.

Everyone in hazmat suits inside plastic bubbles, with special valves for eating and drinking and catheters for urination. It will save lives.. Cameras in every home to prevent domestic violence. IT will save lives. Every sperm is sacred, every sperm is great, if a sperm is wasted, God gets quite irate.

The nice thing about having a life is I can live pretty well hanging out here in Greedy Manse with all my people around me and those who want to see me coming and talking on the back deck and have very little risk.

I feel for the people whose life is dependent on pub crawls with people they barely know or who think being able to eat at a restaurant is positively essential to their life. Yeah, we all like a wee dram, but I'd much rather pour a little here and watch the hawks hunt than order it in some darkened hole, and restaurants are great, but delivery means I can eat while watching a sunset rather than in a noisy crowded place.

I really hope these people can get themselves a life.
