I am doing pretty well. I still get to go to work and things have slowed to a crawl, but I'm grateful to still have a routine/paycheck. Been sitting outside a lot these past few days. Just finished re-reading Red Dragon. Yesterday the neighbor's dog wouldn't leave us alone while we ate lunch and it was awesome.

Also Took's father's armpits smell sensational.

It's ok. I didn't lick the dog's butthole.

I also cut my own hair with old clippers I used to use on my dog back in the mid-00s. Found a few patches of his fur in the box, which was bittersweet.

Good news.
https://covid19.healthdata.org/
These models suggest if we continue through May we’ll be out of this in June with only a few states having overrun ICU beds.
I mean it’s not GOOD news, but better.

FlamingGlobes · 04-06-2020, 06:58 PM

Too late for that, now that we're a third world country.

FlamingGlobes · 04-06-2020, 06:58 PM

I dunno, someone in this thread implied that at least.

Sorry that American exceptionalism is a lie

Disco King · 04-06-2020, 07:32 PM

Oh, America definitely is exceptional.

Just not always in a positive way.

But you said we're not a first world country anymore? I'm confused.

I know I'm supposed to be elated about this, seeing as Johnson is a shitbag, but I'm not really.

I guess I'd just prefer to see the defeated looks on the faces of those I despise politically when they lose and realize that humanity has roundly rejected their politics.

Just dying is kinda lame imo

Multiple exposures in my office (staff member with positive family) prompted our bosses to allow more remote work than previously, so way better than i was a couple days ago

Going in was scary. Kept thinking like gosh it’s probably on there, ok, what do i do with my bag, oh gosh did i just touch that like a butthead, oh fuck am i itching the inside of my ear/nose/throats and HAVE BEEN DOING SO ABSENTMINDEDLY FOR THE LAST TEN MINUTES OH MY FUCK

Wasn’t doing so good, then. Better now thanks. Sorry i got so cynical everyone, it’s apparently my reaction to deep fear

Disco King · 04-06-2020, 07:47 PM

It's crazy that it took people testing positive in order for your bosses to realize how dumb their policy was. And it doesn't even sound like it's totally penetrated their brains, as they are only allowing "more remote work than previously."

I'd still go to the media about this and torch their asses.

FlamingGlobes · 04-06-2020, 07:48 PM

Guys, this isn't the thread to talk about the merits of Biden as compared to Trump.

This is the thread to talk about the 66,000 women violently killed each year.

Price of food just about tripled in the last week in my city. Brazil is doing this quarantine thing pretty damn well.

WTF?

ilikeplanets · 04-07-2020, 12:49 AM

It hasn't tripled here but all the stores have marked everything noticeably higher.

MyOneAndOnly · 04-07-2020, 01:04 AM

Here in DC and Maryland we are not legally allowed to raise prices more than 10% during the lockdown

Donald Trump was warned at the end of January by one of his top White House advisers that coronavirus had the potential to kill hundreds of thousands of Americans and derail the US economy, unless tough action were taken immediately, new memos have revealed.
