And they want MORE lockdowns...yes, it's going so well.

In my neck of the woods...they're clamping down...they basically wanted folks to skip thanksgiving outside of your own household and they've now cancelled hybrid classes for the younger kids...cutting off the little positive interaction /normalcy they were getting.

When the 'cure' is worse than the disease, there's a problem.

Unfortunately, it'll probably be a couple years before we completely bottom out...hopefully we can recover quicker than back in the 1930's...

Kind of under the radar, the live music industry has been decimated, thousands, if not millions of musicians, audio engineers, lighting directors, tour managers, roadies, stage hands, set designers and builders, caterers, tour transportation companies, club, arena, stadium employees, etc out of work around the world. Eric Clapton and Van Morrison, both outspoken about the British lockdowns, released new music to benefit out of work musicians in Britain. Even guys like Mick Jagger are worried and have doubts on the future of live music.

Yeah and MANY small businesses. I see it everyday among my friends who run businesses. I run one as well and luckily it is essential. This Covid crap has cost me plenty. I am hopeful that by May the vaccines will have resulted in some lessening of new infections.

Just got back from invading NC for Thanksgiving with my ‘rents whom I haven’t seen in a year...Gov Cooper has everyone on lock down. I wen to Lowe’s with dad and didn’t wear a mask...some looked at me but no one said anything.

Went to a job site with dad to help install a septic tank pump...owner asked (when he heard me say I had travelled from TX) if I had quarantined.....I asked him if he wanted his shit pit to work? He didn’t have an answer....I told him to quit being a sissy, and explained how it’s a virus and everyone will eventually get it due to no one practicing decontamination properly.....then I told him about the 98% chance of recovery.....he just stood there like a deer in the headlights...

I often opine with my big brother about how we ever got out of the caves...

Yep, "bathroom roy" is blustering and threatening
everybody these days. He put re-instated restrictions on numbers of people allowed to gather, etc. A couple of towns have threatened businesses with huge fines or closing them if they don't enforce this mask crap. Other towns have pretty much still ignored that idiot Cooper and while they have signs saying "mask required" most places are not trying to enforce it at all.

The band/act I used to open for, is decimated. They are out of Austin. Hurting financially would be putting it mildly.

I deliberately subscribe to their notifications so I can see what the other side is seeing for news. I'm constantly amazed at how absurd and out of touch these people are and their headlines. I recommend everyone follow them. If nothing else, it's good for a guffaw now and then.

I have read studies in the past that said that you can indeed be infected with the flu virus and never have any symptoms or symptoms that are so mild that you wouldn't consider yourself to have the flu.

That well may be the case but I've also always been told by doctors etc that your are only contagious while you have symptoms or within a very short period either side of that. With this also being a virus, I'm definitely not fully bought into being contagious with no symptoms and throw in the large number of false positives, inflated numbers and lies, there is lots of reason to not believe it.

I agree. I have a small business. I went through Hell with Katrina, and I learned a lot. The government is not here to help. I will get through this but my income is down one third so far. Lots of my friends are not so lucky. Cut off the checks of the bureaucrats and see what happens. Of courseGov. Pritzker in Illinois is independently wealthy so it will not matter with him.

Our governor never misses an opportunity to virtue signal or "model" C-19 behavior, repeatedly pummeling his social distancing message, blaming young people, college students, restaurants and bars for ignoring social distancing and mask wearing and spreading the virus, and a few months ago scolded residents who refused to, to "Wear a damn mask", and he announced a new state-wide increased restriction level several days earlier that was imposed the day after Thanksgiving...and now he and his partner have the virus.

Gov. Jared Polis, first gentleman Marlon Reis test positive for COVID-19

November 29, 2020

Colorado Gov. Jared Polis and first gentleman Marlon Reis have tested positive for COVID-19, the governor tweeted Saturday night.

Polis and Reis are “asymptomatic, feeling well, and will continue to isolate in their home.”

“Marlon and I are feeling well so far, and are in good spirits,” Polis said in a statement.

Polis said he will work remotely and “continue to fulfill his duties and responsibilities.” Polis began quarantining Wednesday after learning he was exposed to someone who tested positive for COVID-19.

The novel coronavirus has been surging in Colorado and around the country. The state estimated Tuesday that one in 41 people here are contagious, and Polis and other officials have been warning for weeks of a potential catastrophic overload of the state health care system.

Tucson Mayor and City Council (Democrats) have mandated a 10pm to 5am curfew in city limits beginning this Friday.

AZ Governor (RINO) says they can't do that.

There should be some interesting developments coming.

Did I miss something in all my research on this virus? Is the virus more contagious or deadly after 10pm? May I suggest a big middle finger salute to the Tucson mayor and council and go about living your life as normal.
