I am counting the days until May 15th, and hope Cuomo opens up "upstate" long before that. My first call? My hairdresser. He's not doing underground styling (think of how stupid that sounds)  because if he was? I'd have already done it. I just hope he doesn't retire after this long shut down. 

 

 

 

Right hope he doesn't neither for you Buffalo_Gal. 

Hoping as well ends May 15th.

Trump needs to RT this daily until they do the next one:

I dispute that.  The way the polls are worded on the surface seem to suggest that but they really don’t 

 

Here is how they are worded:

 

What worries you more, that the U.S will move too quickly in loosening the restrictions or take too long?

 

 

That is a false choice.  That is either a black or white option.   Of course most people will say that they don’t want to open it up “too soon”.   Key word “too” .    Too soon implies lots of immediate negative connotations to it.

 

If the poll just added a little bit of nuance to it such as:

 

Which do you prefer,?

 

That the US opens up parts of the economy immediately,

 

or wait until you state and local governments determine its safe to open up parts of the economy

 

or wait until after there is an effective cure/vaccine  to open up parts of the economy?

 

That would be a much more informative and substantive poll question than providing a false dichotomy of a choice that they are providing.

Those positions with each and passing day will continue to move in the direction of normalcy.

I wasn't aware of this poll and agree with your take.  It does show me that the majority still fear the virus enough to except the mitigation rules in place.  Those would be better questions and my guess is in your hypothetical is they'd choose the middle option.  I've just been following this daily tracking poll and opinion hasn't shifted much when it comes to social distancing measures.  The overall tolerance for mitigation is still fairly high right now but you'll pry see more resistance once the number of deaths go significantly down.

I just saw Schumer on OAN (waiting for the 5pm presser) say "they are close" to funding the paycheck protection program. It didn't sound clean as he mentioned hospitals (and something else).

 

Mnuchin, Democrats Say They Are Close on Small-Business Funding Agreement

Latest coronavirus stimulus package could include additional money for hospitals, expansion of national testing efforts

My father lives in a nursing home in NYS. They have already had staff bring in cases (I posted pages ago about the letters my mother has received). It sucks right now for the elderly as they are most susceptible.  But the isolation must be horrible.



 

My mom is in hospice care at the Mt Morris nursing home, spoke with her today.  She is so depressed from not being able to see us, she goes days without answering the phone (a week this episode.) Me and my 2 siblings are super concerned she will pass away all alone.

 

My sister in Maine is pregnant, and is praying she lasts long enough for her to see her one last time, as she cannot travel the distance in her late stage of pregnancy.

 

I was not trying to put up a woe is me type post, just trying to let you know that you are not alone, and hope that fact brings you some sort of solace.

It is horrible. The stories that have come out about people battling illness/disease alone are heartbreaking.  

 

[MILFHUNTER#518]

She is such a lying, disingenuous,  despicable human being.

 

Please, Lord Jesus, forgive her. For at this point in her life I truly believe she does not know what she is doing.

Thank you.

Such a sad story...

 

If What I’m hearing is true, that DeWine has ordered all bars and restaurants to be closed, I Say bull####! He doesn’t have that authority. If you are paranoid about getting sick just don’t go out. It shouldn’t keep those of us from Living our Lives. The Madness has to stop.

 

A month later - he died.

Tell me, when did Donald tell everyone to defy state mandated social distancing orders and ordinances? I must have missed that...

I threatened you?   You talking about guns reminded me I need more ammo which is true.  I'm running low. You took that as a threat?  Poor baby

 

Now how about addressing you using someone's death as a way to push an agenda.

 

Again.  ***** you!! 

 

Oh and again you still haven't answered my question.  How are you defending your family is someone with a weapon breaks into your home?

Outside of a few exceptions,  I wanna go on record and say Sugar Nipples has done a good job during this crisis. I have always voted against him, and VEHEMENTLY oppose alot his policy positions.  But in this instance, on a scale of 1-10, 10 being perfect, I give him a 7-8. Impressive,  considering he has never in his career on the public doll encountered a crisis like this. 

 

I hope this post ages well and I don't have to eat my words!?

So if your neighbor goes shooting, comes home, and you happen to overhear him in his driveway commenting to his son  he needs to buy more ammo would you call the county Sheriff?
