Friday Open Thread

by Carl Ballard — Friday, 3/27/20, 5:22 pm

I did it again. Late Open Thread. I am giving myself permission to fail, and as such am fine with this. I have another good week at work, and then may get my hours reduced. Hope the unemployment is good if that comes. My landlord is still flexible and I will definitely be good on that for a while.

Wash your hands right now.

    Probably another week of stock market volatility ahead as “shocker” economic data pours in.

    I hope you don’t have to choose between unemployment or giving your stimulus check to your boss, as an Austin employer is demanding of its employees, Carl. A flexible landlord is good. Also, having no telltale symptoms.

    Also, Fox Business has fired Trish Regan. That’s good, too. Enjoy your unemployment check, Trish. Your new status is well-deserved.

    “It does not matter what is most safe or not, what is good or not. Because in this case, the government does not have the right to do what they’re doing. They do not have a right to restrict you from going to church, worshiping, having meetings, or being with your family, grieving with them. They do not have that right.” — Ammon Bundy

    We’ll see how you feel when your PaO2 is 85% on room air and you can feel your sats dropping and your effort increasing.

    Whatever you do, @GovInslee, do not bend your knee to this monster in the White House. I’d rather die with my pride intact than have my governor trade obeisance for ventilators. https://twitter.com/PodSaveAmerica/status/1243669716872253440

    When you begin sensing that, you’ll sell your daughter’s maidenhead for an E-tank of 100% O2, Goldy.

    You won’t move to Canada when Trump’s re-elected, either, so spare us that upcoming tweet.

    when Trump’s re-elected,

    When Dave Brat’s re-elected…
    When Pete Sessions is re-elected…
    When Barbara Comstock is re-elected…
    When Rohrabacher’s re-elected…
    When Culberson’s re-elected…
    When Mike Bishop’s re-elected…
    When Dean Heller’s re-elected…
    When Scott Walker’s re-elected…
    Lather…
    Rinse…
    Repeat…

    Doctor Dumbfuck was crowing about his orange moron’s approval rating. Indeed, Fox has him at 48%, his highest approval rating in over two years..

    But they also have Biden kicking his ass 49 – 40.

    Of course, the festering piles of Trump Corpses in PA and MI can’t vote in popularity polls.

    How bad are things in New York?

    New York – 44,635 cases, 519 deaths
    Washington – 3,723 cases, 175 deaths

    California, Florida, Massachusetts, and Michigan have similar numbers of cases to Washington (3-4,000), but fewer deaths (so far).

    A U.W. study projects 1,429 deaths in Washington and 81,000 nationally — if people maintain social distancing.

    The ink isn’t dry on the $500 billion corporate slush fund before Trump makes another power grab.

    The bill says Congress has oversight over how that money is spent. Trump doesn’t see it that way.
