That’s good news, deaths lag behind hospitalizations, so hopefully that trend with fall as well.

Cuomo has seemed to be super measured in his reaction too, which is quite the contrast from the conman in chief.

Well that’s it show’s over everyone! Back to work by Easter!

I feel like I need to see at least a week of numbers going down with the same rate of testing before I believe it.

Yeah it takes 1+ weeks to die from this thing so they'll still get a huge spike from the large number of hospitalizations they had that long ago.

If it was from a federal source I'd agree but I think Cuomo isn't like that here.

Could be wrong ofc.

Doing what? Cumo and de Blasio are both saying this means New Yorkers can't relax and need to double down on the isolation measures.

I just think its been too early to say NY is starting to peak. Spain is just saying that now and they started having big problems before the USA, and the USA hasn't even locked the country down fully compared to most other countries. It just looks like a scheme to get people back to work asap to me is all.

I think the goal is to thread the needle by telling people that what they're doing to help is meaningful and working while keeping them from thinking they can start to relax. Cuomo can attempt that for his state, but he's not going to get out there and say "But buckle up, Florida!"

Well, now that I think of it I think he actually has said that multiple times.

Speaking of Florida, here in Boca people have gotten a bad scare by the looks of it. It was in the news that we were number 10 for infection rates in Florida, and there's now a much bigger dent in traffic and pedestrians. And going out yesterday to get food, supermarket workers had dug up masks from somewhere. Most of the customers in the store had masks on, in particular the old farts.

I think it was a one of the retirement communities filled with idiot chuds that got hit, and has given everyone a ferocious scare. That, and loving idiots spreading it everywhere during spring break.

Ventura County, CA has plenty of folks out without masks in stores and generally acting like everything is fine. This place is like Orange County, CA adjacent though so no shocker. Surprisingly it hasn't been hit too hard. Yete.

Both moves are limited, but student debt forgiveness in particular is a pretty big concession from Biden. Apparently his campaign is in active talks with the Sanders campaign, so it'll be interesting to see what other concessions they lay out in the weeks/months to come.

I don't think that's a possibility, since Sanders doesn't really make up for (one of) Biden's biggest weaknesses, being an old white dude, and I have my doubts Sanders would want to give up his position in the Senate anyway. With that said, if they're truly serious about courting Sanders' voters, I think they'll probably go for someone who endorsed Medicare for All, if not Sanders himself. Tammy Baldwin I've obviously mentioned before. Maybe Pramila Jayapal?

Putting the senate implications aside just for the sake of arguement, I think this is where Warren makes a good fit for what he's looking for in a compromise VP with the left, a women, and she didn't endorse Bernie when she dropped out so she never burnt that bridge.

I liked Warren though so that might just be my personal bias

Florida woman put 400 Easter eggs filled with porn in mailboxes, deputies say.

https://www.clickorlando.com/news/local/2020/04/09/florida-woman-put-400-easter-eggs-filled-with-porn-in-mailboxes-deputies-say-heres-why

quote:

FLAGLER COUNTY, Fla. – Multiple Flagler County residents recently found little plastic Easter eggs placed inside their mailboxes, but instead of being filled with treats, the eggs were hiding pornographic images and fish-shaped crackers. Authorities say a 42-year-old Florida woman is responsible.


Jail records show Abril Cestoni, 42, was arrested early Thursday after deputies received tips that a woman was going around a neighborhood placing the pornographic eggs in mailboxes. Deputies said that based on the tips they received and home surveillance video, they were able to conduct a traffic stop on Cestoni, who later admitted to making the porn on a computer program.

Deputies said they determined Cestoni worked at a Publix grocery store nearby and would “deliver” the eggs after her shift ended.

Jail records show Abril Cestoni, 42, was arrested early Thursday after deputies received tips that a woman was going around a neighborhood placing the pornographic eggs in mailboxes. Deputies said that based on the tips they received and home surveillance video, they were able to conduct a traffic stop on Cestoni, who later admitted to making the porn on a computer program.

Cestoni told deputies she put messages inside the eggs because she said she wanted to educate people on the need for churches and pastors to give money to less fortunate.

“Abril stated she was ‘a church’ and had a business license. Abril said she was conducting research on local clergy and people deserved to know the truth,” the arrest report read.

Body camera video shows she said she is not a fanatic.

According to records, Cestoni delivered 400 of the pornography-filled eggs in total since Monday.

“Our team did a great job in tracking this deranged offender down and taking her into custody,” Sheriff Rick Staly said. “Thankfully she did not appear to be sick with COVID-19 symptoms, but she certainly needs some help. This again proves that ‘see something, say something’ works and we thank the community for being part of our guardianship policing philosophy.”

In each of the cases, residents reported noticing that the flag on their mailbox was in the up position and when they checked to see why, they found the egg, which contained a fish-shaped cracker, a sheet of toilet paper, a powdered drink mix and a crumbled up pornographic image.
Cestoni is being charged with violating the statewide stay-at-home order issued by Gov. Ron DeSantis and at least 11 counts of distributing obscene material. She is being held on $7,000 bond, according to the Flagler County Jail.

A real hero.

It's ok, I can purchase Tricare Retired Reserve for: $1066.26 a month with a $3655 catastrophic cap meaning I could end up paying $16450.12 in a year if I had a medical emergency. God forbid it would happen at the end of December and the bills were spread over 2 years.

Oh wait, because I'm a Guardsmen my retirement pay doesn't show up till I'm 60, so this really doesn't help me at all.
