Soon.

Lately I've been in this cycle:

1. Read the death count and exclaim "holy poo poo! Hope this ends soon!"
2. Read about the unfathomable levels of American stupidity.
3. Hope it gets worse.
4. Repeat.

that explains the outsized % of cases, but if there were no other factors deceased percent would also be 35%.

well also all the white people fled detroit to deerfield or w/e white-flight 'burbs just 5-ft outside of city limits so they dont have to pay into the city schools n poo poo, and detroit healthsystem is probably far more overwhelmed and underfunded and understaffed. so yeah class, but not necessarily comorbidities.

bad news lol, states will turn down free money if it keeps "those people" from getting it

Also for anyone new to unemployment, keep in mind that the phone lines and in fact the websites may have very limited hours, like phone lines closing at 2 pm. So plan accordingly. And yes, in the past some states have taken their unemployment websites offline every day at 7pm or some such nonsense
Not every state is Florida.

Maybe he actually gave a poo poo about the people under his command. Maybe he didn't want those sailors to die in the middle of the ocean because the Commander in Chief is a sociopathic orange rear end in a top hat. Maybe he leaked the letter knowing full well he was gonna get relieved immediately but also that it would force action for his crew.

I dunno. Just maybe.

I'll just say that hearing my grandpa is presumptive positive didn't make me angry-- i was angry before. it was totally defeating and all i could do was sit on the floor of my garage sobbing while my dogs licked my face.

i'm sure i'll muster the strength to be mad again, but in that moment i'm sure i couldn't raise a rifle or throw my fists.

The IRS thinks my last name is my maiden name no matter how much I've contacted them and I don't have direct deposit set up so I'm just not going to expect anything. I think I'm going to just go hide in some wilderness area somewhere far from anyone. I will not need to stop for anything and will not see anyone =(

The american populace is so cowed I just don't know what they will do. There are people doing things, but nothing particularly radical at the moment. We'll see if this rent strike/general strike/debt strike takes off in any meaningful fashion. I think more than anything we will go further into corporate fascism as thats the way pretty much anyone in power currently wants to push things.
