Neverending Covid-19 Coronavirus

I went golfing today.

Paid online. Checked in outside by showing a confirmation. Used a scorecard app on my phone. Walked and carried my own clubs. It was nice.

EDIT: Oh, and the rule was - put it NEAR the hole, but not IN the hole, and if you do, DON'T TOUCH THE PIN.

Got word today that they're shutting down courses in the county below us. I played another 9 today and the club house said that they're playing it by ear, closing for tomorrow, and then tentatively opening on Sunday for walker's only (Which I think already should have been done). Guess county health officials are making decisions on their own so everyone doesn't really know.
 
The US is +15,079 cases and +251 deaths today. Remember that progression is roughly 2 weeks behind Italy.

I'm stunned. This is not theoretical anymore.

Take care of yourselves.

What's stunning is that Trump's approval ratings have gone up. We are truly fucked.
 
Just saw on the Nightly News that over 15,000 Instacart workers plan on going on Strike on Monday.

Instacart is a grocery delivery service. They are low wage workers who are considered essential.

They are putting on long hours and being over worked to delivery groceries to middle class families who don't need to leave their homes. They are looking for $5 an hour pay increase as hazard pay as they are putting their lives in danger each and everyday interacting with the public. They are also looking to set the default minimum tip to 10%. Tips aren't required, but the app / online orders default tips to 5% when people click to add a tip.
 
No disrespect to my fellow Americans, but what in the hell is wrong with that nation?!
"No disrespect" doesn't make what you wrote un-disrespectful. Be cool.
If moderators are going to be allowed to make posts solely to mock political figures in this thread, instead of in the actual anti-Trump political thread that exists for this purpose, then all bets are off as far as behavior in this thread, correct? Just making sure before I go further. I've reported this post but nothing happened as all of the mods are of the same political persuasion. Please delete stuff like this or move it to the political thread where it belongs. This post by @nolalady had no purpose except to be mocking.

Mocking of a man who mocks the scientific community-- aka the people most suited to help us through this situation. Who refuses put the nation on lock down (which undercuts the states who are on lockdown and prolongs the economic impact). And she lives in a part of the country with the highest rate in the curve at the moment so I can't say I blame her.

There is no detaching politics from the situation when the situation has been so poorly handled and is, literally, putting people's lives at risk.
