New York might have avoided becoming the US epicenter of COVID19 if Cuomo hadn't dismissed shelter-at-home advice

[link to www.businessinsider.com (secure)]

"....[San Francisco Mayor London] Breed reportedly sent a copy of the shelter-in-place order that went into effect on March 17 to de Blasio in case it could be of use. When de Blasio shared the order with New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, the governor reportedly derided the order and said that the term "shelter in place" sounded "like it was a response to a nuclear apocalypse" and would scare people...."

Famous last words..

:P

Thing about the copper mugs..while amazing for Moscow Mules..it made anything else, even water, taste really bad.

At least to me.


I found both our mugs earlier today. One I've been using to hold garlic..the other I hucked into the backyard some years back after a small fit of rage..and has been sitting in the window sill of our garage, for a year.

Gonna wash them both up nice, polish them..and then make mules. We have the mint growing. Just need the lime and ginger beer.

are patterns caused by the shape societies create or do patterns cause the shape societies create

Probably both.

It's a push and pull that either extreme, will correct for.


For example..I tore up my mint leaves too small in my drink, instead of crushing them..and I keep getting mint bits in my mouth. Which is unpleasant.

Next time I will do it the right way because I remember doing it wrong this time.

We can all pretend that.. wishing this away, or thinking positive, or blaming people talking/writing/thinking about it, caused its rise..or we can accept the fact that for life on Earth, it has always being a WAR between sexual and asexual reproduction.

With sanitation, antibiotics, and vaccines..we were allowed to multiply our numbers worldwide to 7.7 billion. We became arrogant in our complacency. Ignoring doctors strict warning to TAKE ALL YOUR ANTIBIOTICS EVEN IF YOU START TO FEEL BETTER. Who listened?

Because of this..antibiotics have become less and less effective as the asexual reproduce and mutate better ways to kill us off. MRSA is exploding all over American hospitals.


If we beat this..as a species..we can then claim victory.

While we wait for the next pathogen to shake the world.

What's worse is how people are playing this as some sort of politics.

Like a pathogen gives any sort of fuck about the belief system of that it finds as host.

We are being watched..by other countries very very closely, to see how we respond.



So far I'd give a C-- or D.

D for Depression.

Georgia is pretty much in the same boat in numbers.

No one is wearing masks anymore either.

The youth will never get over this clear affront that made everything 'human' somewhat tolerable.

They are clearly being turned into faceless, emotionless drones.

Well shit

Imagine all that effort and belief that has gone into the last 5000 years of everything Human..believing that something out there is watching us.

Would they be LMAO ..or facepalming ?

My business is seasonal. Running from April to December.

While 20K might sound like a lot for some over an 8 week period..I bring $0 in January and February, and very little in March.

It all averages out..and losing April and May..and now June and July..August..

Puts me out of business..

That stimulus money, is like having my cow stolen from me, and given back a little milk.

I watched a few episodes of Black Mirror. They always leave me feeling out of sorts, so I haven't watched any more of them.


I'm shopping for puzzles. For 3 days all I want to do..is sit down and do a puzzle. I'm leaning this..

[link to www.amazon.com (secure)] <------------ bought this

Or this..

Or this..although $50 for a puzzle seems a bit much..

Maybe none of those..I'm still deciding.

Some 108 million people in China’s northeast region are being thrown back under lockdown as a new cluster of #coronavirus infections emerges.

Our herb garden has grown significantly over the last few months and learning and setting to memory different uses for the different herbs, is rather rewarding.

Tarragon on roasted sweet potatoes was a delicious find, just 2 nights ago.
