I don’t think the talking point that Trump made that there have to be consequences for inaction was a wise one.

My initial thought was that’s not nearly as bad as her brother wearing one.

FALLOWFIELD TOWNSHIP (KDKA) – A portion of Interstate 70 in Washington County was shut down overnight due to a tractor-trailer fire. However, the fire isn’t the worst part. The truck was carrying toilet paper and paper towels.

I think of Clint Eastwood as my generation’s iconic Western star.

Right after they cut off funding to the WHO.

She’s a “rapstar”. That photo was from 2018.

Obviously, the key element of a lawsuit would be proof that the nursing home disobeyed state or federal guidelines regarding social distancing, self-quarantine or PPE utilization/ hand hygiene recommendations. I think this could be hard to do, given the severe fluctuations in federal attitude during the days when exposure risk turned out to be higher than most people thought. Unless the home brazenly ignored basic standards. Because at the end of the day, it is a balancing act, if insufficient staff came to work due to over-zealous policies, some of the patients would likely have died, too. If you haven’t read them, the articles describing the New Orleans discussions about Mardi Gras planning against the Covid outbreak are pretty interesting. Their assessment of their risk kept evolving, but not at a rate that was sufficient to plan appropriately.

Russia has joined the Covid party. With 21,000 + confirmed cases, and a surge of “pneumonia” deaths.

To be fair, we can’t rule out @IndianaRecRider

We’ve had fewer than 50 new cases a day in my county per day for the past 9 days, and 21 or fewer the last three days. I hope this keeps in the right direction, long-term.

Is this? I have one guess. An Indiana man has described his shock after seeing that millions of dollars had been deposited into his bank account while he was waiting for his stimulus payment. @Indy is one of many people who have already received their one-of payment from the government which are being issued amid the economic downturn caused by the coronavirus lockdowns. He said he was expecting to receive $1,700 from the payment. However, after withdrawing $200 from a Family Express ATM, Calvin checked his balance saw he somehow had $8.2 million in his account. "Holy crap, this has got to be wrong," @Indytold The Times of Northwest Indiana while describing what he thought when seeing his account. "I'm like, 'What in the world is going on? There's no way I have $8.2 million in my bank account.'" When he spoke to his bank on Monday, they confirmed it was an error and his actual account balance was $13.69. The bank suggested that the ATM machine he used is printing out the wrong balance on its receipts.

Until they cut Medicare.

Yes. It might take a year or so, but yes.

@Dottles is right, I misunderstood. But that makes @Razors Edge right, too, which hurts more. The ‘advance’ you’ve been hearing about is in reference to a special tax credit that’ll appear on the tax return you file in 2021 for the 2020 tax year — a tax credit that wouldn’t have been there if it wasn’t for these stimulus checks. So the Internal Revenue Service isn’t giving you some of your 2020 tax refund upfront. The stimulus check will be in addition to what you would’ve otherwise expected.

Nah, these are $ you won’t get back in next year’s tax return, so it’s literally your money. Now, if you are “so fortunate” to not qualify for a tax refund next year, yes, it’s other people’s money.

They’re your and my bucks, being loaned back to us.

That would somewhat defeat the purpose of the exercise.

At least during the pandemic, while they aren’t showing movies.

I get a free to me flu shot annually at work.

Although Lake Erie is very relaxing.

I think my favorite has to be Hawaii.

Long. I was scheduled for a cut the Friday before the lockdown, but it was rescheduled due to an illness in her family. It was to be the Tuesday that my Governor closed all non-essential businesses. So it’s been awhile.

The Rolling Stones. I’m a huge Floyd fan, too, but if I had one band to listen to, I would be the Stones. If I had but one album to listen to, it would be Exiles.

I was going to hit up the Pro Cycling forum today to discuss the classics, but spoilers aren’t appreciated.

@Dirtyhip is “camping”, and watching Mallard 🦆 porn.
