Right now I put him in the Ackman category ... super glib, super egocentric, needs you to know how right he is ... Right now I'm talking about the type ... will withhold final opinion of course.

BTW, I just ordered his book Drawing Dead. It sounds good and one very good ways to get intimate with another person's consciousness is to read their writing.

It’s sounds like what many other cities have already started doing. Some just use more stern language to get the point across.

No you don’t get a citation for going outside lol. You can go get ice cream at the McDonald’s drive thru or go for a jog when ever you want. Restaurants are takeout only etc. Shopping malls and movie theaters will close. Basically, it does enough to get the message through to most reasonable people that you shouldn’t be outside in big groups.

God damn MLY I'm not trying to screw someone over, and no Dave I am not ignorant to the fact she might not make whatever you think I think a doctor makes. I know what I have been told by the roommates which is she is "always on vacation" and very cut and dry with her attitude toward helping them fix things for the house. Maybe shes wealthy maybe she isn't but nevertheless it seems everybody else is ****ed on collecting a paycheck except landlords and medical workers right now. No, I am not going to leave my roommates high and dry, I'm not a bastard.

edit: Dave you have been very helpful, attitude not directed toward you just clarifying.

Also, they are now down with the idea that she is bluffing and theres no way anybody is moving into this house with what is going on so we can eiither work something out with her or go find something else for a better deal. Mets, I wish you luck. If you are content living in your truck ehhh...that might be a bad idea at this point in time. If it was that or paying I'd lean toward paying and telling landlord ya'll need to figure out a payment plan or some relief right now.

The government needs to get its **** together with this. IMO this is the biggest fear for everyone who is jobless right now. Not the illness, but the fact they have no income and bills piling up imminently. Put everybody at ease and say ALL bills are suspended and will not have to be made. Somebody is gonna get screwed but you can't have 50 million workers who live paycheck to paycheck out on their ass because their landlord is expecting 3 months of backpay in July because now they have to make good on all that rent. It isn't going to work.

3 different people texted me the same memo picture that’s been floating around social media tonight. It says the president is going to declare martial law at some point this weekend after all of the military and 1st responders are in place. I’m sure it’s BS but as my friend and I were saying, eventually it may have to happen to get people to listen

Lol! Read my previous post. Even San Francisco gives many allowances to leave your house. Calm down people. Mayors just have to use stern language so the masses get it. This is not a full scale lockdown.

Does Martial law basically mean the Military takes over the city to enforce people not walking around needlessly, like not shopping for grocery, etc. or grouping up?

If you are down with following the rules like that then its not really a bad thing is it?

It could be just in some big cities tho, not everywhere right?

Yeah Lee is a good journalist but I just noticed in that thread he said it was a friend of a friend's mom, so he probably shouldn't have ever mentioned it. My bad.

I thought about it last night....Trump is *slowly* making his move to delay the election so he gets to stay in power. He declared himself a "wartime president" yesterday...it is going to happen folks. Whether it is warranted or not this is what he has been hoping for all along.

I got a date tomorrow where I'm going to her house to cook for her...its the 3rd! date. So, I don't give a **** even though I'm all for everybody staying home, I'm going damnit!

edit: president, not general I believe. Sorry

Maybe it’s time to accept our fate and steer into the skid. Take our lumps and for those who survive, wish them luck and to be better prepared for the future.

It's a good thing the U.S. was fully prepared for this slow rolling tsunami coming across the globe.

Quote:
To buy time, Providence infection control and quality experts designed prototype face-shields with off-the-shelf materials: marine-grade vinyl, industrial tape, foam and elastic. Monday night they bought supplies at craft stores and Home Depot. On Tuesday, about 20 administrative staff members at the health system’s corporate headquarters volunteered to work an assembly line in a large conference room, putting together 500 home-spun face shields that were going to a hospital in Seattle that night.

If martial law is imposed, I think nationwide panic will happen immediately following the announcement, and everyone will then instantly go into me and mine mode.

Can't really believe we're on the verge of martial law, under Trump, with like humvees and soldiers and ****. All in about 3 weeks time. This thread was started on Feb 26th ffs.
