Oof. My state's extended Shelter-at-home was overturned by the State Supreme Court. All but a few counties are now completely 'open'. Here is a little write-up of a place I grew up around. https://www.channel3000.com/video-shows-packed-bar-less-than-an-hour-after-safer-at-home-order-lifted/...

Sure, but then this is in there. Making that title a bit, questionable. Although 55 percent of Americans don't doubt vaccine safety, 45 percent noted at least one source that caused doubts about the safety of vaccination. The top three doubt-causing sources were online articles (16 percent)...

No I am fully aware that we have had outbreaks after it was declared eliminated in the US. I happened to have mono right around the time an outbreak in my area was happening. They checked for that initially. Then thought it was strep, then called later to tell me to stop taking the antibiotics...

I am only in the range of upset to confused, as to why the Berserker Barbarian didn't later in the sub-class advancement set up something to mitigate exhaustion. I know Barbarians are pretty strong, it was just an odd decision for the only class to impart that negative, to also not provide a...

I guess we can agree to disagree on what we individually consider common in a population of 320 million.

My heart will always belong to 13th Warrior.

Whoa, I wouldn't say antivaxxers are common. They are most certainly loud. Common though? No. We don't know what will happen if/when a vaccine for this comes out. We know some people aren't sure now. Maybe that is due to fear of it rolling out too quickly, or it being too costly on an injured...

It is possible that this will be protracted. I do feel that our patchwork response in the States at least, may lead to this being an uglier summer. I can at least say that I am very tired of the increase in work that is to be done. Regardless of how well my company is doing during the crisis.

Not to mention the Us VS Them political culture that is ever increasing in the USA. People will just dismiss outright something they sniff as even a little bit aligned with a particular party. That sort of nature is going to come to a head at some point, and perhaps this is it. I can't really...

I second guess myself all the time. I just usually try to do that all after the session. In the shower or right before sleep, when I do my real thinking. While I am running the encounters, I am usually too into it at the time, or just keep on going as if I didn't just make a mistake...

And as well, one of Pence's aids tested positive today. Though not a personal valet. Katie Miller, who definitely (well hopefully) had close contact with Stephen Miller. If there isn't an outbreak there, I will be frankly surprised.

Oh no, I agree. For that matter, we don't know that catching it brings long term immunity either. Or if it did, that it would also mean you aren't contagious if it is attempting to infect you again. I can understand that people would think that way is all.

That isn't surprising. If people think they can tough it out, either through being young and healthy, already having had it, or are an anti-vaccination proponent. All of those combined becomes a decent sized group of people. The question is, are they right to feel this way? (probably not in the...

Watching CR is on my long list of, "Oooo I have to start doing that, maybe tomorrow" list. Even still, from what I have seen of his sessions and DMing, I like. He is good. I take that as motivation to better myself. Not to become Matt. Not to find players who are expert voice actors. Not to...

This happened. President Trump's Personal Valet Tests Positive for Coronavirus

It definitely hurts messaging when leaders aren't following the suggestions their administration puts out there. It hurts even more then they are not consistent about it. Upside gaming wise, I have had a lot of time to think and world build a new setting while my in person group is on break. I...

Sigh. I was just joking Zard. I fully understand the gravity of all this, but chuckled as it just seems to keep rolling out the bad.

Lol what are you today, the doom and gloom patrol? First we have a more dangerous strain that may have been discovered, and a racist potato.

Ummm... I travel all the time for work and I am by no means "the rich".

Lol. That do was meant to be a 'don't'. I will edit. As above, I goofed and typed do instead of don't. I do agree about the pledge of allegiance. While in school (at least grade school, I don't recall whether our high school had us doing it) it was just something you had to do or were...
