Am I the only one not over reacting?

This is a great explanation of why this lockdown and social distancing is actually important.

Mine was 4000 undergrads....

The college of engineering had a ceremony after the main on where the dead gave me a diploma and patted my, er shook my hand.

What school did you attend? Something dead patted your butt?

I just saw this in the "locked" announcements.



I think that's a great idea. I'm not sure how they'll enforce it, but good on them looking out for the seniors.

Well at least SOMETHING good can be said about DG.

Life is shockingly normal for me. Left SPI this morning, hugged - yes, hugged - friends goodbye, did not see one person in a mask or Saran-wrapped in my travels to Kingsville (where I am now). I keep hearing all this on the news, how people are freaking out and locking themselves inside away from the zombie apocalypse, but I have not seen that in actuality.

As far as I can tell, people are behaving normally and mocking the manufactured hysteria.

The problem with preventing a catastrophe is that if you are really successful, you destroy the most undeniable proof it was going to happen. But since it is impossible to prove a negative (the old "prove there is a God" - "No you prove there isn't") and if we let a catastrophe happen it's often impossible to reverse the consequences, so we need to be able to rely on whatever evidence we can find beforehand.

Same here, although I suspect the delivery person was a CNN Democrat.

I think the biggest problem is our news media and politicians. They are completely revolved around big cities and they think that's the whole country, in terms of reaction AND economic issues. Suffice to say, those shitholes are such a national problem that it should be good riddance to them - let 'em all die. Bring back smaller cities, towns, and communities.

Even President Trump doesn't seem to get that.
