https://www.expressnews.com/news/local/article/Shelter-in-place-order-to-slow-coronavirus-15151183.php San Antonio now must shelter in place also. A lady asked at the press conference how housekeepers, pool cleaners, etc could continue working; the response was a very curt "Anything not explicitly prohib... I mean permitted by the order, is prohibited. Stay home." quote:Effective at 11:59 p.m. Tuesday, residents in San Antonio and the county’s suburban cities must stay home and only leave their homes to pick up groceries and medicine, get gas or seek health care. Residents can also go outside to run, walk and exercise if they keep their distance from others.

The RGV is mostly on lockdown - Laredo is down for 2 weeks, and Brownsville/Cameron Co. starts at midnight Wednesday. Hidalgo has a curfew beginning tonight at 10:00, but we probably only have a few more days until we're down for the count.

If they're willing to die to maintain economic stability for their children, you'd think that they'd have consented to mildly inconvenience themselves to stem the tide of climate change or provide healthcare or welfare for their children. Disregarding of course the fact that dead bodies are also a big drain on the economy.

The idea that we'd just have a normal good economy while hospitals are choked with dead and dying people of all ages and people would be fine going out and shopping and going to work in those conditions is loving absurd. There is no good economy while an epidemic exists.

The second there are massive outbreaks all over they will panic and shut everything down again anyways, except it will be even worse. Nevermind the national economy won't be doing well if the entire rest of the world is shut down.

There is no good economy while an epidemic exists. Killing off ~15% of people on social security/medicare would probably be the massive cut to the last bastion of the American welfare system that both dems and Republicans have been trying to pull off for a few decades now.

In fairness, they talk about the drawdown in the series, so they're right about the trajectory, but the gap in production meant that the last half dropped right when the Saudis and Russians decided to measure dicks. If it was drawing down then, it's dead now.

If it was drawing down then, it's dead now. My grandmother and grandfather had some family land in that area that they sold in the 70s, but they kept the mineral rights. Of course, that didn't do anything for them because there were never any wells. (There was some exploratory drilling in the early 90s around the time of the Gulf War, but it didn't pan out.) My grandfather died about a decade ago. Shortly afterwards they did some fracking on the land and ended up getting a few wells. My grandmother was very excited, and we had one very lux Christmas, but she started developing dementia shortly after. She's made enough money off the wells that she's able to afford a very nice memory care facility, and even if the wells are done she's covered for the rest of her life. The dementia is advanced enough that she can't really take in new information anymore, and even before the 'rona we didn't expect her to make it through the rest of the year, but it's nice for her to have been able to finally become the rich Texas oil woman she always hoped she'd be. i say swears online posted:CAIN'T SIT HEAH My accent is almost completely gone now, but it was so strong when I was in elementary school that my parents sent me to a speech therapist. Apparently one of the signs of an accent that is too strong is pronouncing "pen" and "pin" exactly the same: PEAN.

I really don't know how things have changed since all I've done for the past 2 or 3 weeks is go to work. At least I have a new VR headset to amuse me e: everyone that works at the exxon here and parks their lifted dualie pickup trucks on the railroad tracks should kill themselves. There's my hot take for the thread. Seriously I can't even feel them in my dumb Focus why do they floor the brakes and crawl over them at 5mph it's so stupid you have a lift kit and mud tires I have a lowered econocar with a turbo what is even going on Marxalot fucked around with this message at 15:54 on Mar 24, 2020 |
