First, I thought it best to check the claims, so I cracked open bottles of cola and orange juice, then deposited a few drops directly onto LFTs. Sure enough, a few minutes later, two lines appeared on each test, supposedly indicating the presence of the virus that causes Covid-19.

On June 8, 2021 Skynet went LIVE. If you have an Amazon Alexa Echo or an Amazon Ring Camera then your devices have now been recruited with a default opt-in to support the Amazom SideWalk.
Now a secret network has been enabled that powers devices on the steets without the need for a Wifi connection or an Internet connection. Amazon Echos and Rings all over will now provide the network architecture by passing the signals to and from devices on 900mhz through the Internet by sharing in the bandwidth of everyone with these Amazon devices.
However these devices are not under the control of the owner of the device. These network activities are encrypted and kept private between Amazon and the device so you don’t even know what your device is doing, what other devices it is listening to or whether it is doing Remote control.
Welcome to Skynet.

So, I guess I have to say this. I am not suicidal. I am at peace with myself and the world.
And besides, our Portuguese Lusitano Stallion Jade II da Sernandina (Jade of Serenity) just qualified this weekend at fourth level for Dressage at Devon!! (at age 7) Hooray for Jade!— Robert W Malone, MD (@RWMaloneMD) July 18, 2021
So, I hope that this is hyperbole and an over-reaction, but last night an experienced journalist told me that I need to get security because I was at risk of being assassinated. I do not know how to even begin to think about this. I am just a middle class person. Security??!!??

Tesla Quotes $16,000 To Repair Model 3, Independent Shop Did It For $700
July 16th, 2021Would it be possible to place the battery coolant hose in a more vulnerable position?
And then, cover that mess up with a plastic belly pan.
This is an UNBELIEVABLE situation.
Via: Jalopnik:
Repairability is a big deal, and one that Tesla seems to be ignoring, at least in the case of this new Model 3 that had a problem with its battery pack. A problem that Tesla wanted a sphincter-straining $16,000 to fix, but which an independent shop managed for $700.
The whole story is told in this Rich Rebuilds video. The hapless Tesla Model 3 owner, a Radio City Music Hall engineer named Donald, drove over some road debris, which punctured the plastic front belly pan of the car and impacted a coolant line port to the battery, breaking it.
When the owner took the car, as he was supposed to, to an official Tesla repair center, he was told that to repair the coolant port, the entire battery pack would need to be replaced, for a gut-wrenching total of $16,000, close to half the entire cost of the car.
