I'm on board with abolishing states now I used to be against the idea of abolishing states for civil libertarian reasons, e.g. national ID, but that has already pretty much happened anyway with the REAL ID Act and now I'm pretty sure it's not worth all the red tape that comes from 50 different systems with regard to things like state-level zoning and transportation laws

My dad seemed to be having trouble breathing when he had the flu, like a rasping kind of breath, I asked if he was all right, and he said yes. I wish I'd made a bigger deal out of it right then and said something like "You NEED to go to the hospital right now" instead of "Well, all right"

Health policy plan for the coronavirus pandemic - The best things in life are free (so health insurance must not be one of those things) - Live, laugh while covering your mouth to prevent the spread of contagious droplets, and love at a social distance - Fake it 'til you make it - Home is where the heart is, until your heart stops

bets are strongly in favor of no one being able to relate to this because of hyperfocus on relatively well-off remote workers, instead of workers being ordered to come into work while someone coughs all over them

Capitalism is a system which assigns no inherent value to human life, leaving it ripe for profit through unprosecuted negligent homicide. People who have deceived themselves into thinking they're generous, at a certain level of wealth, have the temptation to hold onto that wealth, like the One Ring, so that they can accrue interest to have more wealth to give away "later". The people with the most ambition in the form of greed and lust for power, rather than ambition in helping people, are judged most deserving of control of a capitalism system. There are plenty of kind people out there. They don't have any control over what's happening

https://www.cnn.com/2020/04/06/business/coronavirus-grocers-one-way-aisles/index.html On Thursday when I went grocery shopping, I kept getting boxed in by people who turned their cart into the aisle at both ends after I'd entered it. That was the last time I'm going grocery shopping for two months, hopefully. This sounds like a good measure, if they really have the tech for it

I'm thinking about whether to reschedule a doctor's appointment in a week. I called and asked if it'd be safer to reschedule, and they told me if the doctor thinks it's best to reschedule, then she'll do that and call me, and I can reschedule, but it's entirely up to me. My mom wants me to reschedule for as late as possible and the local news thinks it's going to peak here in late April. I'm going to call back and reschedule for mid-July edit: I mean "Data compiled by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation shows Tennessee will see the most cases of COVID-19 in late April." galenanorth has issued a correction as of 20:52 on Apr 8, 2020 |

"People should be free to do what they want, any old time, even during a pandemic, without any government to stop them" libertarianism and "If the pandemic were such a threat, then the government probably would have done something by now and closed places, so it's fine to mass congregate anywhere it's legal" authority-deference is like a yin-yang of self-reinforcing opposites that help the COVID-19 numbers go up
