What's scary is that this is just another example of how we're doing literally the worst possible thing on every front. We're creating an initial rush that's going to seed future outbreaks, while also simultaneously setting all these businesses up to fail or desperately cut costs and lay off employees. We're so loving dumb.

lmao yeah. it fuckin kicks rear end

It's a little bit juvenile, but it's simple and it's timeless.

We let it be known that Schnorkles, for a snack, eats tiny pieces of shit.

You're picturing it and you're talking about it. That's a win in my book.
Bring back all your workers to handle an initial rush, demand craters after the first week because the initial spike works itself out and half the population is still terrified, fire workers who are now potentially sick

seems less than ideal

Basically we're going to lurch from spike to spike, supply chains are going to implode because the fed's response is "BACK TO WORK" and people are going to start running into food scarcity because of said supply chains and a government that refuses to provide unemployment benefits.

idk if serious social unrest is on the table, but it feels like its probably on the table.

Oh it's definitely on the table. Unemployment and Bernie Bucks haven't run out and the second wave of non-service job layoffs hasn't even hit yet.

Will you stop going crazy in there?
I don't even know anybody who isn't intending to alter their behavior in one way or another, and almost everyone I know is 35 years old or younger. My girlfriend and I canceled all of our travel plans for this year and we're sure as poo poo not planning on eating out anytime soon. Nobody in my little board game group wants to meet in person again for probably the rest of the year. None of the friends that we'd normally meet at the bar once or twice a month have any intention of going back to bars or public places anytime soon.

I'm sure my social circle is a little more lefty than usual in a state that's already liberalish, but, like, I don't know anyone who isn't taking this seriously. My friends who work retail want to quit their jobs. The one person I know who's a server already put in her two-week notice so she isn't working when the patio area reopens. Everyone is terrified of getting their parents sick.

gently caress.

nations and governments are really just legal abstractions that nobody but humans care about. even with the most competent government, still think the CoronaVirus would 'wreck' us all since Country A has no control over what Country B does.

Let it harden in a sealed container in the fridge then cut it into a sausage patty sized square/thing and fry up with butter/sage/little salt and pepper until the outside is like hashbrowns and the inside will be super creamy

So what's the deal with Singapore? Back in March the line was that their World Class Public Health System was defeating the virus and they're up to 28000 cases now

I had a friend there and it sounded like Singapore was not reporting a lot of cases and didn’t lock down enough. People were still going out to nightclubs while unreported cases were spreading.
