I hear you, but my main concern is that my parents keep talking about getting farm land and I am terrified of digging the dirt 12 hours a day until the raiders/townsfolk rape and murder us all.

Tbh I was never very clear on what is exactly the difference between this place and D&D. I guess this is the more wacky, crazy, shitposting version? The sticky thread reads "casual discussion" but that sounds excessively euphemistic.

It’s more the forum where it’s acknowledged that the people in power are doing whatever they want with no controls or regulation and that no one is ever going to face punishment. It’s like a fast track to extreme cynicism and jadedness. Worlds hosed, who wants to waste time seriously discussing it?

‘Frankly i think this is a setup! We are NOT being taken to a hospital but a hostel. That’s where partners are sent waiting out there quarantine. No phone, no wi-fi and no medical facilities. I really am smelling a very big rat here! Waiting for the transfer now. xx’

Raising fears that he may be part of a conspiracy to silence his updates, he replied to a follower asking if he was sure of the diagnosis, he said: ‘I doubt it was positive. If it was, we would be in hospital’. He also said ‘maybe’ when asked if someone was trying to keep him quiet.

So they stuck the infected ones into sealed containers developed in part by Paul Allen for Ebola. Maybe a bit over the top but better safe than sorry I guess.

of course! why didn't i see this earlier! this virus wasn't made in a lab. no, it was selectively bred in uighur concentration camps to kill off old people to alleviate upcoming demographic pressures. it's so obvious!

Well it's happening in Japan now, and it has higher density of Boomers than the US.

Only difference is most Japanese Boomers are still working. Once the virus is done w Japan they will have no taxi drivers.

usually you only dig for like a week and then everything is planted. the rest of the time is spent not watering the plants because there's no water so you die from dehydration and or disease but probably mostly the disease

David Abel, from Oxfordshire, announced on Facebook that he and Sally had tested positive for the new virus. In a later post, however, he said he doubted his diagnosis.

“Frankly I think this is a setup! We are NOT being taken to a hospital but a hostel. That’s where partners are sent waiting out their quarantine,” he wrote. “No phone, no wifi and no medical facilities. I really am smelling a very big rat here! Waiting for the transfer now.”

Asked in the comments below one of his posts whether he was sure the test was positive, he replied: “I doubt it was positive. If it was, we would be in hospital.”

Also, flu is a completely different kind of virus with other quirks that make it difficult to treat. The reason that we don’t have treatments for corona viruses is that usually it’s super common, self limiting, and not that bad.
