That Works posted:I can only imagine how it must be now that the EPA gives no fucks but when I worked in the oilfield in the gulf of mexico in the late 90's the smaller platforms were always up to poo poo. I went to one every couple weeks that we always delivered a 55g drum of rig soap to (think like 4x concentrated Dawn detergent). They were always throwing soap around the rig to prevent the constant steady leaks of oil from making a slick which helicopters / boats could see and would have to report. This was a Whiting petroleum rig iirc but there were like 5 other ones that got to visit personally. Isn't the EPA specifically suspending any enforcement at the moment? e: Yup: https://www.epa.gov/newsreleases/epa-announces-enforcement-discretion-policy-covid-19-pandemic

It's still not budging. https://twitter.com/aedwardslevy/status/1252371366696779777 The overall issue is that these astroturfy protests can't really get past a 50-50 split of the Republicans polled. So they never really crack 25% and there hasn't been a lot of evidence to see that number budging, at least not yet. Give it a month and if the unemployment systems are still hosed, that could budge.

On top of that, they're people without a lot of money, so they're preconditioned to not seek treatment. That's leading to a lot of people that could've been on early oxygen to fight the pneumonia, but instead coming in when they're near death with lungs that don't work. https://twitter.com/thegarance/status/1252425067847286784?s=19 That seems to be a major factor in a lot of deaths - COVID can trick you into thinking you're fine, when you've actually been conditioned to take faster, shorter breaths that feel clean, but don't push enough oxygen through.

I'm picturing the NK government falling apart and then after a week of everyone standing around waiting to be told what to do, the migrations come and the nights are punctuated with the occasional explosion as landmines are detonated by those trying to cross under cover of darkness D:
