  1. Jesus, I wish there were an interesting series to watch.
  2. I hate to think what will happen if this tears through West Africa.
  3. Hispanic immigrants to the USA are fearful that if they have to go to hospital, they'll end up deported. This situation is going to exacerbate all our political tensions.
  4. "I always knew this was a pandemic, even before it was declared"-Trump In that case, he should be tarred and feathered in front of the White House and given a dose of the virus himself.
  5. No idea. But @limpid might consider renaming the thread Covid-19 Pandemic to reflect the dire seriousness of it.
  6. I knew the longer it dragged out, the more likely it'd be that Brady moved on, so I'm not surprised by this. 20 years and the most incredible run of success we could have ever dreamed of. My bet is that he goes to Las Vegas for a year or two and has fun with it, freed from Belichik's scrutiny. Of course, if there's no NFL this year, it's moot.
  7. The economy is grinding to a halt and might stay inert for months. people are saying a recession is coming. But if there is NO economy, a major depression is coming.
  8. My cousin is due to give birth in May, when hospitals are projected to be teeming with CV patients. She's considering home birth with a midwife.
  9. In my case, the latter. There's plenty of food in the USA. For now, anyway.
  10. Food banks only have so much. Soup kitchens too. People will need a survival check ASAP.
  11. Short lived. He just gave himself a 10/10 for his response to the crisis. He's now calling Covid-19 "The Chinese Virus" in yet more demagoguery. His idiot followers are still defending him. Staggering.
  12. Only a matter of time before Trump starts to inch towards giving himself special powers due to the pandemic. Trump will be at his most dangerous from here on out. He will want to postpone the election or some shit.
  13. Shelter in place order given to the entire San Francisco bay area. Here we go.
  14. There were mass layoffs and bar/restaurant closures today here in Portland. Very sad. There will be thousands of restaurant workers who will be broke or close to it as soon as this weekend. We need relief money getting into people's hands pronto. Loan predators are probably drooling at this scenario.
  15. If there was any doubt about just how amateurish American government is these days, this catastrophic response to CV should dispel it all. Useless **** words removed of the very first order. People said Trump would get us all killed, and look where we are now. This is a tragedy in real time.
  16. It is really quiet outside. I live right by the docks with a view of Casco bay bridge which connects Portland and South Portland. 8PM on a Monday and there are no cars crossing. Nobody in the street at all.
  17. Just keep them home starting tomorrow
  18. How is Brexit affecting the response and supply chain?
  19. Back from the supermarket. Bought a bunch of cat food and litter, the last several boxes of pasta left on the shelf, a whole turkey, pork chops, onions, carrots, (they were out of garlic ), frozen pizza, frozen veggies, water, tuna fish, etc. The place was a little busier than normal, and everyone was calm. The city just imposed a curfew on restaurants. Many places have already closed and laid off staff. I expect a complete shutdown of bars soon. I might have one or two nights to do a little business, but I'm honestly thinking about just saving the booze and food for myself!
  20. Why haven't they cancelled school yet? Can you keep them from going to school and eliminate that potential source?
  21. Are we still signing Wagner Love?
