I don't really feel cooped up on my back patio at 69 degrees with a cold beer and a big ass shot of tequila. Which I'm headed to right about now. I can work from work when I'm the only one here.
Other than the bouts of being scared/depressed in the state of things, my general quality of life has been pretty great. Better work/life balance, more time outside, getting more around the house done, staying active, etc.
I'm thankful we were able to move out of our apartment before this happened, THAT would've been cooped up.
Not having to commute is nice. I'd like to get more stuff done outside, but it is constantly raining here.

I mean, I think cruises are fun... but yeah, bail out is
I feel the same way about the airlines. Fuck 'em. The airports, planes, etc. will all be here still. If they collapse, let someone else give it a whirl. I'm a bit of a hypocrite in saying this as I've flown probably 500K miles in the past 10 years at least, but everyone should probably be flying less, it's destroying the planet (ships too obviously). In some ways this could be a good reset for us. Everyone should be driving less, flying less, using less.
As someone that works for a giant corp, I'm torn.
Someone/thing needs to be punished for bad business practices, but so many working level people have no input in those and are ultimately the ones that get super screwed. Exec leadership can drift off with a golden parachute when a company goes under, but the working level people that depend on these jobs get hosed.

I'm getting house and yard projects done. Cooking everynight and eating real good. I also like hanging with my wife. It's been pretty nice when I'm able to forget the doom and gloom. But I also have NV and body armor sitting next to my bed

6 trillion?

we are done.
proping up bullshit companies that need to fail. including the
fucking insurance industry that's continues to fuck over every American. yet we can't pay for Medicare for all.
Fucking stupid. All the money I saved the last 2 years will be worth dick in the next 2
2 years? I've been saving forever, almost never doing or buying anything that I actually want, all in order to one day be rewarded with financial independence.
It turns out that YOLO was the right attitude all along. Treat yoself, you deserve it.
Should have invested in guns and ammo my dude. High value and low cost of entry.

If we keep flying between different cruise ships for free, we won’t have to pay for food or lodging and we get free entertainment.

How's it going for you? Hopefully you're able to get outside without encountering too many other humans.

Eh, it could be worse. Probably go for a drive with the fam after work to get outside for a bit.
Weather was kinda shit for a few days which didn’t help anything.
Spending extra time with the girls because I’m WFH is nice doe. I’ll take random breaks and lunch with them.

Wow...that seems like a pretty bad idea.
Or this truly is NBD and everyone is overreacting... I have no clue.
I think for most, it's probably NBD.
But for those who are older, weak of heart, plagued with the beetus, have weakened immune systems, and/or have preexisting conditions, it's deadly.
Are you willing to sacrifice any family members to support the economy? I'm not.
You mean Corvette owners? Or New Balance buyers?
TRICK QUESTION THEYRE THE SAME

I hate to be a fear monger about this, but some people need a good fucking dose of reality. It's going to take people dying en masse because the hospitals are overwhelmed to get anyone to take this seriously.
Everyone's treating this like a big fucking vacation.
Agreed 100%. Today is the first day I've gone out in a while, and I went straight to what I needed at the store, straight to checkout, didn't talk to anyone, and stayed back from the cashier. But all throughout the store there were employees helping people find things and discuss projects and whatnot...uhhhh?
Wife keeps finding excuses to go out. She's catching up on her 6 months worth of Bon Appetite back issues and finding recipies she needs to make. Our fridge is STOCKED with shit and she's still going out to buy more. Arguments are going to get real.

Should have enacted free flights back when the army took over the airports during the revolutionary war. Idiots.

I own New Balance with no Corvette.
