I recently graduated college in a STEM field. I live in California, and I am looking for work. Now that Joe Biden has set his January 4 deadline for the COVID vaccine mandate for companies, I’m racking my brains as what I should do. I hope that someone here can give me some advice. I heard that a federal court in Louisiana halted the vaccine mandates, though I have a bad feeling that this won’t be the last we see of the federal mandate. Not yet, at least. I heard that Biden is ignoring the ruling, which I am not particularly surprised to hear. Here are some options that I was considering.
Option 1: I could keep applying to jobs like normal and just choosing to not apply to employers that state that vaccines are mandatory.
Option 2: I could wait a week or two before applying to jobs to see which employers have decided they want to implement vaccine mandates.
Option 3: I could wait until the January 4 deadline before applying to jobs again in order to see which companies are complying with the mandate. During this time, I might try to improve a skill that I can use for a side hustle in the future.
Option 4: I can keep applying to jobs, but only those with fewer than 100 employees. I’m not sure about this one since I heard the Biden is going to extend his mandate to all companies in the future, not just those with 100 or more employees.
Option 5: I can apply to jobs that only do remote work or to jobs out of my state. I live in California, unfortunately. Leaving the state is only feasible if I have a source of income. It’s difficult enough to get a job within my state. I would imagine that getting a job elsewhere would even harder, especially since I recently graduate college and have never had a full-time job.
Option 6: I can wait until the mandate has been found unconstitutional by SCOTUS. I don’t know how reliable this is. SCOTUS might make a ruling before 2021 ends or halfway through 2022, for all I know. And if it’s found unconstitutional, I don’t know if employers here in California will stop mandating vaccines.
Another thing I should mention is that I voluntarily got vaccinated already, so I don’t have to worry about being forced to get a vaccine. I just don’t want to work for an employer who forces others to get vaccinated.
Is there way to determine which companies impose vaccine and mask mandates on their employees? I know that some of them simply say so in the job description. Other companies don’t mention it, but is there a way to determine if the mandates are still being imposed? In California, most companies likely enforce mask mandates. I don’t know about the vaccine mandate, though. Any advice on this subject would be appreciated.
Furthermore, there is a very high probability that I will be flying to another country in January for a month to get a medical procedure done and to visit aging family members. I heard that vaccinations are required to fly internationally, correct me if I’m wrong. I might not try to get a job before my trip. If I manage to get a job before January, I will likely end up rescheduling and not going.
For those of you who don't believe that voting has any meaning any longer and that voter/election fraud is going to negate any right-wing voters, you should still vote.
Vote to expose the election fraud. Every single person who votes against the establishment will increase the total number of votes that have to be forged to make the "correct" candidate(s) victorious. For those of you in California, vote in the recall election. Even if Gavin Newsom has people helping him commit fraud, the more people come out to vote against him, the more obvious the fraud becomes. Then, it can become possible for people who are either on the fence about or outright deny the existence of voter/election fraud will see our arguments in a more sympathetic light.
Vote to expose. Sunlight is the best disinfectant. Keep voting. Vote in person. Vote on paper, not electronically. Make sure that you’re registered to vote. It can’t hurt to cast your ballot.
Hello, everyone. I am planning on voting in the California recall election. I plan to vote in person with a paper ballot, not electronically. I also plan to vote early instead of on September 14. Is there anything that I should keep in mind before I go through with my vote? Is there anything about voting early that is a problem or is what I’m doing okay?
EDIT: Is there anything that I should bring with me? Pens or pencils?
I'm fairly certain that many of the people here don't approve of the infrastructure bill that is making it's way through Congress right now. For those who haven't seen this article yet, you might want to take a look. It's possible that it might be too late to stop the bill, but it's still worth looking at the article's contents. You might be able to take action.

What do you all think?
There was a previous post on this subject a little over a week ago. There was a discussion that the web browser Opera is owned by a company that was bought by a Chinese consortium named Golden Brick Capital Private Equity Fund, if I am not mistaken. This is the post I'm referring to:

My question is if anyone here can confirm if the web browser Vivaldi also has any ties to the CCP. If not, then does that mean that Vivaldi is perfectly acceptable to use? I use Vivaldi daily, so I hope that there are no problems with it.
