JeremoudCorbynejad posted:Speaking of deaths, Italy numbers are in: 793 today  I went out for a brief walk with my wife earlier to get some fresh air. Telford Town Park was eerily quiet, but I was still surprised at just how many groups of people are *still* congregating. Mostly young'uns though. I guess they just lack the level of maturity needed to understand how serious this poo poo is.

Communist Thoughts posted:i kinda assume the BBC "Mayube these people would have died anyway?" is to cover them starting to not count covid deaths as covid deaths if there are underlying conditions I wonder how many deaths in the next month are going to be attributed to athlete's foot.

Went out for an MTB ride today on my own to get out into the woods. Car park was packed and I saw a lot of groups of people. Some of which had at least 10 people in, all spitting and sneezing and coughing away like nothing was happening. I was just astonished.

I went to pick up some beer/support the local corner shop, and there were so many folks just dawdling around that it made me want to cry. Just have some urgency about you! How can you not understand that you need to go out and get back in fast.

I'm only leaving the house to take the bins out (and will be for the next week untill I'm happy that I dont have it). Only after that will I maybe venture to the shops but we'll see. Really don't want to catch this poo poo, we know basically nothing about the long term effects or damage it causes.

People have been flooding into the area for the past two weeks, and are stripping the local shops bare, and being generally obnoxious. A lot of them have decided that they're now in a safe zone and are treating it like a holiday, so good luck containing the virus The summit of Snowdon was standing room only today. The local GPs are seriously worried, as we're under-resourced for the permanent population as it is. The fact that this is pretty much THE Welshest corner of Wales throws an interesting bit of racial tension into the mix as well.

it's looking real loving bad hopefully with the closures we will start to see a drop off, but I think we've done it at about the same point they did so quite possibly not we have been so badly failed by the people in charge that it's incredible, just too little too late and for no good reason whatsoever apart from arrogant negligence I mean leaving aside for a minute the absolutely astounding ineptitude that lead to them allegedly only working out on Monday that they were on course to kill 250,000+ people (and almost certainly massively on the + side), it feels like for weeks they have been saying poo poo like "oh we're two weeks behind Italy" and then doing literally nothing other than asking people to wash their hands more what did they think was going to happen in two weeks if they didn't loving do something to stop us becoming Italy??? I really really hope they haven't left it far too late and done far too little

On the plus side the overall death rate this week is down, possibility due to people washing their hands more. Oh and the government actually doing something and winter season ending.

Communist Thoughts posted:i am literally learning korean while in isolation Reading my big book on the history of Korea over the next few days or so, if I think I can probably get it finished by this time tomorrow. Angepain posted:keeping my sanity by finally reading Gunnerkrigg Court, as I have been meaning to do at some point since approx. 2008. something awful users can play the "oh hey i recognise that panel from someone's avatar" drinking game and die of alcohol poisoning before the virus gets them I can also recommend Kill Six Billion Demons. It is a truly beautiful comic that says important things like "Reach Heaven through violence" and "Trans Rights" . Ash Crimson posted:Those people are gone, they're not real They are absolutely real, they just don't take things seriously and I wish with all my heart and soul that I could live like that and not 1) Constantly piss people off by not noticing their feelings and 2) be that goddamn fortunate. Some of my housemates have gone out of London to visit their SIL who just had a baby. I admire their optimisim but loving hell.

Howard Tayler of Schlock Mercenary has published a strip a day (3 on Sundays) since 2000. Nowhere near as complex and detailed as Gunnerkrigg though. The longest running webcomics are at this point I think longer running and more reliable and regular than the longest running newspaper comics.

Nothing silly like that, just writing stuff on the walls, leaving bottlecaps in drawers in amounts that seem ridiculous for bottlecaps and recording my thoughts on this old timey recording device. Gonna leave like 30 around my house on individual players as well.
