Hmm, maybe I’ll try that. Thanks for the tip.




Haven’t seen a single roll at a store anywhere in weeks.
We found some small rolls that were 1-ply camping tp at a Menards. Not sure if they are nationwide so think Home Depot or Lowe's. But MOST grocery stores are now getting smart and only allowing 1 or 2 packs per person. Which should have started immediately, but that's just my opinion.
 
The terrifying aspect of this virus, is that when it infects a healthcare worker we instantly become less effective at combating it.
 
Dropping supplies off to elderly relatives...I used to get in trouble for knocking on doors & running away growing up. Now it's the socially responsible thing to do!
 
Mesa Grocery Worker tests positive for COVID-19

Why do I put this here, you ask? The store - Fry's Foods, a Kroger subsidiary - is the largest one over on the west side of the city. It is also located right next to East Valley Institute for Technology's main campus (though they've been off for quite some time), and...

...the Food & Nutrition distribution center for Mesa Public Schools. Which has been handling all of the emergency school lunches since the beginning of the shutdown.
 
D'ya think this will spawn a genre of songs related to Covid-19 the same way there were a rash of songs in the 50's and such about dying in auto/motorcycle accidents (Deadman's Curve, Transfusion, 1952 Vincent Black Lightning, and so on)?

Says James, in my opinion, there's nothing in this world
Beats a '52 Vincent and a red headed girl.
Now Nortons and Indians and Greeveses won't do
They don't have a soul like a Vincent '52.

Joel Freedman needs to be hung by his neck until he is dead from the highest building in Philadelphia, hopefully facing towards New York as a warning to Wallstreet.
 


If you take Til and not Boris Johnson or Rand Paul, I swear to fucking God, God.

edit - Apparently he's recovering.
 
Yeah, the CPC (Conservative Party of Canada) were shitting on our gov here for sending so many supplies to China in February now that we're in need of them now. Not a peep out of them now that China is returning the favour.
 
Cuba is sending doctors. China is sending doctors. Russia is sending materials (they've increased their mask production by a ridiculous amount). The USA is sending...thoughts and prayers.

If you're wondering when it became really obvious you were no longer the Leader of the Free World....
Hey if it solves the gun crisis it'll solve this

Can we get a two-panel political cartoon of Trump in the upper panel all gussied up in full-on Howdy Pardner gear, six-guns akimbo and blasting a couple of coronavirii Doom Eternal-style? But then in the lower panel we see he's just wearing a VR headset and in the same pose, but he's actually shooting a couple of seniors?

For Dave regarding Joel Freedman.


He bought a hospital, fired everyone, gutted it, auctioned off all the equipment and now wants a million a month for the city to use it for CV19 patients.

Surely the free market will provide.

So take the cops, declare an emergency, and just fucking take it over. What's he going to do?

In any sane society, this is when the government says "ok, you want to gouge us? Meet my buddies "eminent" and "domain".
 
It's not a war. Stop saying that. It's not an invisible enemy. Stop saying that.

It's a virus. It can't be reasoned with, it doesn't feel pity or remorse and it absolutely will not stop until we are all dead.

Calling it a war implies victory is obtainable. We can't win, we can just mitigate our losses to limit it's growth until such time as we can develop a cure or vaccine. And even then, it's always going to be there.
