I'm glad to announce to the world "List of oldest living state leaders" has survived Dronebogus-19! The result was keep and deletionists got their ass kicked for once!

Something that's been getting on my nerves begrudgingly lately is announcing whether someone is or isn't vaccinated when they get COVID-19 and hospitalised. I could be entirely wrong here in my frustration, but if you're getting hospitalised your vaccination status really goes out the window if we're using that to determine their current health. Just comes off as some subtle "vaccines don't work" propaganda. I'm not necessarily getting mad at you, more so the general discourse.

All I know is Mike Baldwin used to own the factory….

Might we please have an all-purpose Baldwin thread, with these shooting posts to lead it off? Aren't there about 15 brothers that all look the same (or summat)? Edit: sorry, just saw Spade's post from earlier - don't get me Dunned!

Evidence shows if you are vaccinated and hospitalized for COVID-19 you are better off than unvaccinated. I don't see the issue including that information

Or this fellow.

Not to be confused with the 98 year old American television meteorologist of the same name.

Apparently he had been kidnapped in April 2020 by rival rapper Yasin and members of a criminal gang, held at gunpoint for several hours and had protected identity at the time of his death. He was going to testify against Yasin in court. Won two Swedish "Grammis" last year.
