How did you know? Oh wait you said ā€œthe fucking manā€ not ā€œfucking the manā€. Forget I said anything.

Itā€™s good they are stopping Jones from peddling false cures to a pandemic. I guess thatā€™s the threshold it takes for someone to actually act.

How is this a widespread-enough phenomenon to write stories about? I remember earlier in my life starting a ā€œyou have to vote because old people are stupidā€ campaign to get out the youth vote. This really makes me feel like finally enacting my plan.

They want to use artificial intelligence? They didnā€™t listen to the fucking human intelligence that told them to take it seriously in early January!

Fucking case in point: We had a fire drill in our building yesterday and the ā€œFire Safety Teamā€ from each floor had to go to a pre-meeting with a Saftey Consultant (retired firefighter) to learn about our duties. Iā€™m the ā€œMale Searcherā€ so I had to go. So this guy, responsible for helping understand how to effectively respond to a fire emergency* in our building wraps up the session by spewing Fox News talking points about Corona. YESTERDAY, March 12, 2020, the same day the mayor declared the city in a state of emergency, this guy is like ā€œItā€™s a flu, a flu, listen, the flu has already killed more peopleā€¦blah, blah, blahā€ meanwhile heā€™s pushing 70, and about 350lbs on a good day. fucking hell.

After that, the fire drill happened and we all congregated in the elevator bay for a 2 minute talk about stairwell fucking D. Social Distancing? whatā€™s that?

*P.S. heā€™s also our EAP consultant, which means any emergency other than fires, including, you guessed it ā€œchemical and biological contamination!ā€

I refuse to do the math on how many bodies that entails, but its a hell of a lot. In that vein, Russia is not being straightforward with their numbers either. (Of course, we are not either, but that would be because we fucking donā€™t have them!

Amen!! Of course, it is a very toddler response that if one person doesnā€™t give you the answer you want, ask another. They ran out of humans, soā€¦

The fact that Kushner is talking to actual experts is the closest thing Iā€™ve seen to good news w/r to the White House handling of this thing.

Iā€™m not going to repeat that awful phrase to anyone, ever. Iā€™m going to social distance it. So it doesnā€™t, you know, go viral.
