Looks like the stay-at-home orders are lifted; it’s back to the counties to decide Thank God. I’m looking forward to getting Coronavirus outside of an Applebee’s

Honest question, can Gavin cut us checks and stop rent and mortgage payments? Because then we could do a proper months long lockdown and we don't need the economy "open" so that poor people can eat and pay their landlord.

But cutting checks would require the ability to print money which a state can't really do.

luminalflux posted:That’s not how fire ecology works bro. Rain makes poo poo grow, which is fuel that burns a few seasons later. Sometimes you get lucky and the rain just washes the soil down the hillside and you get debris flows instead of future fires. It kinda is. In part of why the wildfires are as bad as they are is that there's loads of fuel built up over years and loads of dead trees from changing climate. It's way easier to deal with a grassland fire that happens over 1 year of growth in contrast to a forest with decades of dead wood and dry ground detritus.

The danger before was just saying "yeah it's covered" and then having Trump Presidency 2.0 come around and say gently caress you. Of course, the danger now is the senate going "well, yes, I suppose we should reach across the aisle and shave our bill down from 1.5t to 200 billion yes nice very good unity" Regardless, suspending rent *should* have been a thing because, uh, we're coming close to a year and there's no way a "just pay it back in 6 months" thing will fly.

https://twitter.com/SophiaBollag/status/1353798072162111489?s=20 Newsom is using the decline in transmission rates to justify reopening. No, no, don't ask what effect this policy change will have on transmission rates, I assure you the state has secret numbers that make this a very good idea.

Most counties are going straight back to purple - is there really that much of a difference? I thought this stay at home order was just for after 10 pm anyhow? I can’t keep any of this poo poo straight at this point.

Hawkperson posted:Most counties are going straight back to purple - is there really that much of a difference? Purple tier is less restrictive than a stay at home order, yes. But ultimately I'd say it's more the messaging than anything. I don't think anything is being enforced in large stretches of the state, but part of the reason for that is the constant see-sawing between "open" and "closed" and the ever-shifting definitions for those terms. People are exhausted and Newsom is adding to that exhaustion while he flails in his attempt to find a middle ground that pisses everyone off. And for something new, here's Newsom on vaccine distribution: https://twitter.com/GavinNewsom/status/1353811803550040067?s=20 https://twitter.com/GavinNewsom/status/1353811805634580481?s=20 A better plan than no plan, at least. I'm curious how much we're paying Salesforce for this.

Hawkperson posted:Most counties are going straight back to purple - is there really that much of a difference? Basically just outdoor dining/salons open? Retail's going to be essentially the same. I honestly can't think of what this is otherwise, because none of the heavily populated counties will be anywhere close to like, trying to reopen indoor dining if they're sticking with the color tiers. Also, amazing that we're finally realizing "oh yeah streamlining vaccine eligibility and getting a central appointment system to queue people would be nice", but I'll take late recognition over none at this point. From what my wife has mentioned from Kect/LAC/UCLA Health, the vaccine data being reported as administered is hideously nonstandard and lagging by up to a week in spots, so it wouldn't surprise me that we're simultaneously doing better than the numbers shown and still also not doing nearly as much as we can. If NYC can beat the national average, so can we.

Riverside County already had indoor dining as of two weeks ago when I went to go get takeout. I dunno what this stay-at-home order was supposed to do anyways.

It had all the elegance and simplicity of a boutique Citrix web platform running on windows 7 designed for DOS. Absolutely ball-smashingly horrible.

I wish we could have continued to ban tent outdoor dining, but the reopened the actual open air outdoor dining. Those tents are so dumb, the whole point of being outdoors is to stop trapping airflow so your not sitting in someone else stagnant virus cloud

Celexi posted:I haven't gone out to eat for a year and I am not missing it so far, what's with people seeing it as some sort of weird religion It's a nice break from cooking, a chance to get out and enjoy yourself in the company of other people, and generally a portion of what you do when you're spending time with a significant other, friends, or family. Being able to safely go out and get a meal at a restaurant would be a very refreshing thing, and a fairly large shift back towards normal for a lot of people. I definitely miss going out to meals with friends, and hell, just seeing my friends in person as well.

It also makes it much easier to enjoy the cuisine of different countries/regions. Yes, cooking yourself is obviously possible, but for many types of food it's real easy to gently caress up. I still haven't managed to get injera right.

sharing a meal with company is a normal human pleasure but so is not getting permanent lung scarring the people who are pushing for opening up restaurants though never were the people who missed going out to eat, they are the people who own five applebees franchises who are pissed off they aren't making as much money and landlords who demand their assets suffer no losses in value during a complete economic crash

It is also one of the few things that effects people who aren't poor, and can't afford to go out to eat religiously at sit down restaurants.

I miss going out to eat, but I care more about the health of me and the workers than I care about getting drink refills while eating sushi. We've been trying a lot more recipes, and got an air fryer to make crunchy things at home. We're also saving money from skipping 1-2 restaurant meal dates a week.
