    I know this is anecdotal, but a lot of people I thought I knew better don't seem to be taking this seriously enough at all. I think this may honestly end up being comparable to Italy or worse. Maybe the geographical make up if the US will help control some of the spread, but I really think that the American idea of how we're all individuals that put our own interests first is going to hurt us so much in this instance. 
    This is really the biggest problem and it's everywhere. Went to the store yesterday for some things and noticed Red Lobster n shit was still packed how they normally are on weekends. One of my friends who has taken 1000 hits too many of acid in his life hosted a house show (in his apartment) for his newly reunited band. People are still complaining that there's no school and more places are shutting down. Ohio might shut down school for the entire academic year. "It's just the flu." "The flu kills more people, what's the problem?" 

    We're gonna end up like Italy fast. It also doesn't help we aren't testing people the way we should be

     the government is actively suppressing the amount of positive tests. Notice how they all come out late at night usually?  

    Not to mention they were keeping test from even being made in the first place.

    Cdc recommended no gathering over 50 people. Was dumb it was at 250. 

    Were one step from quarantine.

    Were going through a time period in pur history that we have never been through. 
    Could you imagine where we would be without the internet? This virus is really showing us its more of a utilities Than anything. 

    Spreading information. Working from home. Were really fortunate to live in this time period.

    So I know alcohol consumption is prolly not a good thing during this pandemic, and I'm not advocating it at all, but god damn if I'm not gonna be drinking some whiskey tomorrow while I'm working at home just cause I can.

    53 confirmed cases in Michigan, including 5 in my county. We had zero at this time last week. That number is going to explode, at least as fast as we can get people tested.

    We got some groceries last Wednesday but im thinking of going out tomorrow morning and stocking up a little bit more. 

    Better to do it sooner rather than later.
    Death is not the worst of evils. You can't be down, when you're always high.

    All our restaurant owners are calling me with questions about coverage for shut downs, and basically or response is 🤷🏻‍♂️ Maybe lol.

    If this is how they decide to keep testing people we probably will never know the real numbers

    Yeah there are probably a few hundred thousand, or even a million contagious people walking around right now. 
  • FLATFLAT Posts: 60,730 spicy boy

    Everyone needs to settle down. Stay away from each other for a few weeks and hope for the best

    Michigan has been doing a good job at shutting shit down

    I am up in Northern NY and it seems that people are FINALLY listening. I mean this isn't a killer for people our age. I'm assuming we are all 20's etc. Just gotta chill. The fucking media is getting hard ons over this stuff. They are disgusting to watch the way they preach fear.

    I've been feeling pretty weird the past few days. Between my uncle dying last week, my ex gf getting engaged to some douchebag, losing thousands in bitcoin and having to replace a $2,500 pressure washer, I cant tell if its coronavirus or crippling depression. Either way, definitely not str8.

    yeah, i swear iv had anxiety that is convincing i have the corona. wed-yesterday i had a little bit of a sore throat, and a low grade fever, and periods of the day where i had a little bit of shortness of breath. 

    But its not consistent. comes and goes. 

    Thats whack though. hang in there my dude.
