Ahahaha holy loving assballs Dow down 3k TODAY? THAT AWESOME TRUMP ECONOMY AW YEAH and yes before anyone with an orange nose says otherwise, he owns this, he fired his entire pandemic team at the NSC and DHS 2 loving years ago and didn't replace them OR the white house management team that handled them. Good thing we saved a couple million dollars by not paying those people to nip this in the bud though Jesus, I hope no one who voted against this ridiculous shambolic mess dies. If you voted for it, well you got what you asked for, thoughts and prayers for you.

With enough extension cords, and little fear of death, it's as long as you want it to be, Home Depot sells 100' extension chords. (FR, I made my living installing outlets for these at one point, it's only like 2', basically requires a receptacle near the toilet valve) kastein posted:Ahahaha holy loving assballs Dow down 3k TODAY? THAT AWESOME TRUMP ECONOMY AW YEAH Whoawhoawhoa, are you saying that massively cutting critical Government agencies can have negative ramifications almost like they were established to provide necessary services for tax paying citizens? What are you, some kinda Commie? The Free Market will provide for 21st century plague victims. Seriously though, any rational President's Emergency Declaration should have included sweeping Social Services for those with the virus, and those in the Service Industry who are out of work and can't pay their rent, much less for food or medical care. It's a loving embarrassment to our country. I guess we slashed interest rates so a few people keep their retirement and billionaires can keep most of their ridiculous Smaug-like hordes of money, so that's loving great. I seriously feel guilty that I have a stable Federal job right now, and wish I could help others through the coming shitstorm, but I don't know how.

Wife's pulled the kids from school, can't take a chance waiting for someone else to decide, every day less in that germy cesspool (that's all schools, ours isn't any better or worse) is a blessing. Works issued WFH instructions but not told us we're shutting yet, I'm talking to my boss after lunch. Also I started painting last night to take my mind off things, finished the kitchen and it didn't take my mind off a damned thing. Looks nicer than "new house beige" but at that rate I'm going to run out of house to paint quite quickly.

Not at all due to corona, just a coincidence, but I watched some random "Suriving on £1 a day" videos and realised I had tons of stuff in the cupboard and that I could make tons of great food with it. Very enjoyable. Been taking advantage of some home delivery grocery services that offered basically 30% off on first buy when registering, so me and my wife have both made one account each.

She grew up in, and is firmly in the camp of "after poop you wash/shower". Which, coupled with her, ahem, challenging firmness and frequency, means that number twos are a full hour ordeal, necessitating phone, tablet, power bank, refreshments and solid WiFi.

Legit asking are there battery powered or rechargeable bidets? No outlets by my 1960 house poop holes and it was nearly impossible to get an electrician out a few months ago now half the town was destroyed by a tornado it is JUST NOT HAPPENING. I’ve learned enough now to install outlets but I can’t cut open the walls and drop wire or let me say I’m not going to. I can replace outlets and switches now with confidence.

Sorry to interrupt rear end-spraying chat, but I've finally remembered this while actually being in front of a computer. I'm looking for an old video, I wanna say early 2000s. I *think* it was part of a Jackass episode, but I'm not sure. It's a guy who has a car (I wanna say a Neon) set up for jumping. He pulls it out of this industrial storage looking thing, races back and forth on some loading docks and jumps it, pulls it back in, and says something like "this never happened, scram!" (failing to sound tough at all.) I seem to remember him being a fatter guy with sunglasses, think Jack Black. The whole thing is less than a minute. Does anyone know what the gently caress I'm on about?

Buying ammo was virtually impossible, at least around here it was. Just got off the phone with my new employer, they asked if I would be willing to push my start date back by at least a week, maybe two at most. So this guys doing NOTHING next week, and it will be glorious.

Charles posted:I wonder if people panic bought splash-less bleach. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaabsolutely. Though the cheapest store brand bleach we haven't isn't much better (it's 3% instead of 6%). Not that we've been getting any in though. It'll still disinfect... if you use it straight. All we got last night was store brand and the splashless. fridge corn posted:We've been told to go home without pay if we're ill I thought you lot were better than that? The very much American (well... Texan) grocery store I work for is giving unlimited pay based on your normal schedule (so 40 hours/week for me) if you're diagnosed until you're released by hospital or your doctor, and just threw a week of sick pay at everyone to use if they feel sick and can't get to the doctor for a day or two (or if they want to play it safe). Also set up a hotline to call if you think you have symptoms, an email address for questions, dedicated web sites, etc. And since we're constantly exposed to the public, it's not a matter of if, but when, for a lot of us, since we work with the gross public so much. The severely neutered operating hours will help (we're normally 6a-12a.. it's now 8a-8p). Applebees Appetizer posted:It was easier to get ammo for my guns than it is to get toilet paper My store has stated shopping before open WILL get you fired. I tested it today by grabbing some TP and trying to stash it 10 minutes before open, though (freshly) off the clock. They saw me on camera, my boss basically said "so I really don't want to fire you for a stupid mistake. To me, it looked like you found something on an aisle and mixed up what aisle toilet paper is on. Does that sound right to you?" YUP, JUST A STUPID MISTAKE BOSS, SORRY THESE 12 HOUR DAYS HAVE ME IN A FOG. The personal shopper service for my store grabbed the last of the good stuff 5 minutes before open.  I was directed to wait at the front door (inside, at least, instead of in the line outside that lead far out of the parking lot and all the way to the bus stop down the street), and "get ready to run the moment they open the door". I got my third choice in TP.

Well that was a hectic day but Dad is now supplied for the coming storm. He had a ton of stuff already so I filled his freezer with cold cuts and loaded him up with his vitamins and the Gatorade he likes. And I went to four different stores and didn't panic shop, only bought 2 of each item (except for this gross peach nectur poo poo he likes). At 70 with a bad heart valve I don't need him getting this poo poo if it can be avoided. Thankfully he's an obsessive model railroader and has enough unbuilt poo poo in his basement and garage to keep himself busy for months. I just wish he wasn't 45 minutes away. Tomorrow I check mom's stock and hopefully pick up the gun.

Her health has gone to poo poo in general recently, but as anyone with Chron's can attest, TP IS LIFE. She's been trying to get more TP at my store (she lives literally across the street from the store) for a couple of days, but we were always out by the time she could get in. She doesn't want to wait in the lines to get into the store because her immune system is crappy right now, I can't say I blame her. She's lost a lot of weight since I last saw her.. and was already skinny to begin with.  I didn't get her first or even second choice, but I got 12 mega rolls of her third choice, and her first choice for paper towels. And got my own second choice for TP.
