It's kind of crazy that the hoarding has sort of died down at least where I am, and grocery stores are about 75% back to normal but I still haven't seen a roll of toilet paper or paper towel in a store in about 6 weeks. It's like this endless cycle of people grabbing every butt wipe they see in a store even though there is no actual shortage. just millions of morons sitting on a years worth of TP leaving other morons to wipe their rear end with actual towels they try to flush down a toilet.

We've also had a bunch of politicians in Australia banging on about how we're "getting ahead of the virus" and how the daily increase in detected infections has dropped from about 20% a few weeks ago down to less than 2% in recent days which means that we're flattening the curve (some say we've already flattened it) and are now debating how quickly we can open things up again
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-04-12/coronavirus-curve-flattens-but-new-questions-worry-australians/12140962

The trouble is they've had severe restrictions on testing so far (concentrating mostly on returned travelers and people who have had contact with returned travelers and are showing symptoms) and the great majority of the population didn't have access to tests even if they had symptoms so they had no idea how far community transmissions had spread and no idea what the actual numbers out there might be, but they're starting to loosen up the restrictions and allow anyone showing symptoms to get tested so we're inevitably going to get a huge upswing in detected infections real soon.

I know that idiot “technocrats” have poisoned the well with respect to the idea that science will solve any catastrophe we face (notably climate change), but vaccine development isn’t a miracle.

We will have vaccines before the ball drop closes 2021. It will be the longest year since 46 B.C., but we will get through it.

gently caress you Mercury Insurance, every other big name carrier did something for their customers except you. I'm gonna use the stimulus payment to pay off the rest of my insurance and then I'm going to change carriers next year.

I switched from Geico to Progressive 2 weeks ago and tbh I don’t even care if progressive gives me any kind of refund because they’re half the price of Geico because Geico sucks poo poo if you have more than one car.

WelCUM 2 tha Progressive Movement.

Well not really that just sounds cool and I've been with them for years now and they always gave me real good rates comparatively but also I'm easy to insure since I have safe-rear end cars and the only ticket I've ever had in my life for anything was because I had expired tags once like a decade ago :/
Anyway good luck with paying someone for not blowing up your car and dying in it or killing others w/it. Thank you for reading.

You can just change whenever and get a refund of any unused premium form your current carrier.
