Maybe the conditions aren’t right for formation, but I notice a definite lack of contrails in the sky in the northern Greater Toronto Area.

So far, twice today, I saw drivers pull into the neighborhood bar’s parking lot, walk into the vestibule, and immediately walk back out. Somehow, they just haven’t gotten the hint that something might be wrong.
Meanwhile, the brewery down the street from them is serving curbside, and I think they might be letting people into their outdoor seating area.

My local bottleshop is run by a guy who lives on-site at the business.
He’s declared that he’ll be staying open even if we go full quarantine; he reckons he can just hold up his EFTPOS machine to the window, then kick a case of beer out the door when appropriate.

Yeah, it’s doubly unfortunate that the framing will now be “HoW wIlL yOu PaY fOr ThAt?” from the Democratic side and “by dismantling what’s left of your precious safety net, stupid libs” from the Republican side.
Just absolutely expert decision-making by House Democratic leadership in punting on this idea. Unparalleled genius centrism. Real cutting-edge Better Things Aren’t Possible-ism.
Meanwhile, Amazon has decided that “use more sanitizer” is the best solution to the issue of COVID-19 spreading in their warehouses. Because who cares how many peons die as long as nobody leaves a bad review for Daddy Bezos’s company because their package was “late”?

“We have to take into account whether older patients have families who can take care of them once they leave the ICU, because they will need help,” says Marco Resta, deputy head of Policlinico San Donato’s Intensive Care Unit.
Even if there is no chance, he says, you have to “look a patient in the face and say, ‘All is well.’ And this lie destroys you.”
Better count on heavy PTSD among healthcare workers after this.

As – ahem – some were already calling for before coronavirus, with respect to climate.
We’re demonstrating it was never a matter of ability, it was a matter of will.
