Yes it’s happening right now, a maskless Karen eruption in my local Trader Joe, the same one where I got coughed on and cursed at for being Asian by a different white lady back in March
“I’m due equal treatment under the law”
“State civil code says...”
“No I will not let you do my shopping for me, that is not equal treatment under the law”
She’s still here blocking the aisle and wasting the time of two extremely patient people of color
Okay, escorted out. I will say she’s done a great job of unifying literally everyone else in the store as a single community, clapping and laughing and cheering

Now I need a picture of Shuri on the throne, Storm at her side, if anyone has one
Given that there are no mutants in the MCU yet there’s nothing stopping them from making Storm any age they want. And of course...Letitia is 27 so they can age up Shuri by the time this storyline begins anyway

“Even as we forcefully roll back the consequences of's reign of error, we need to find a way to bring the tens of millions of Americans he piped out into the wilds of conspiracy paranoia and racist vitriol back to the fold of a working democracy.” cnn.com/2020/11/09/opi…
The US government has invested half a billion into Regeneron’s monoclonal antibody therapy as part of Operation Warp Speed. It’s still in early clinical trials. The target for it is people with “exceedingly high levels of the virus.” sciencemag.org/news/2020/09/p…
If the president recovers because of his experimental Regeneron therapy, he has the hard work and sacrifice of Chinese hamsters to thank
Underscoring again that this experimental Regeneron therapy that is first and foremost for people with very severe viral loads and/or high risk factors who have not yet produced sufficient antibodies. Could be precautionary or could mean things are worse than they look.
Even if she’s negative now, she may very well be surrounded by people who she’s infected. There’s a potential viral pocket around her, and who knows what the source is and who’s interacted with that source.
