The 6-foot rule was recommended by health experts as a rule-of-thumb for times when people had to be in public though. It’s for when you have to buy groceries to eat, not when you want to go play in the sand. That sand, by the way? It’s pretty disgusting. Even under normal conditions, high-traffic beaches are a great…

I haven’t seen that postcard, but I’ve been staggering my mail. I don’t pull it daily, but twice a week, and when I bring it in it has its own mini-quarantine by the front door and has to wait a week to be full processed. When I pull it, I scan for any bills or other items that need to be handled quickly, and the rest…

Trump has also said he won’t sign it if it doesn’t also relieve employers of paying payroll taxes. However, I have my doubts that if Congress actually manages to put any version of this on his desk that he’ll be willing to be the bad guy on a relief bill during an election year. Not after the stunt he pulled insisting…

Bernie Sanders is a senator for Vermont, not California.

I would argue that the most basic of motions is, in fact, farting.

Yes, but can it give me coronavirus?

Thanks so much for this reminder. I always remember to get my free games on Xbox Live Gold, but I only seem to remember the Twitch Prime games when someone posts an article like this.

Why TF is this trending right now, on April 28th 2020? I just re-installed Origin for no good reason before realizing this article was published a year ago.

Same. This one came onto my radar when posted by someone from whom I had the impression of good sensibilities. When I commented to say why the idea was bunk (and dangerous) I was met with a “you can have your opinion, let’s agree to disagree” response. I hate that conversation-ending line. It’s fine if we’re talking…

Actually, it leans really heavily on the pseudoscience, and suggests we should be treating COVID-19 patients by putting their beds outside in the sun.

It’s not even funny. I mean, of course racism isn’t funny, but if you substituted in some other more appropriately hated group—let’s just go with racist hicks—it’s still not a good bit.

I thought I was sitting pretty with a giant brick of yeast in the freezer when this all started, then quickly remembered that our fridge died while we were on a cursed vacation last fall and the person housesitting for us threw out all of its contents. I know the yeast would have been fine but we were in another state…

I know you suggested setting privacy to friends only as a last resort for those who just can’t help themselves, but I want to expand on it with a clarification about why this isn’t a bulletproof solution.

Great work in this article. If you have time, I’d love to see someone post a similar debunking to this Medium article going around with the claim that fresh air is the best treatment for COVID-19. Link below, and I’ll give you a head start: Look at what else the author has published, prior to the pandemic. Also, I’m…

Fair enough, but I don’t think most of the “bacon enthusiasts” are talking about bacon alternatives such as these.

Please don’t give in to the anti-islamic, antisemitic cultural zeitgeist of demonizing as strange or inherently un-American the notion that anyone would choose not to consume bacon.

Nice work finding games that are mostly available on every major platform.

Yes! These are two my wife and I loved playing together. Never Alone was pretty short but a great game. Unraveled 2 was shear perfection.

I hear some people go straight to third base. When you’re a star, they let you do it.

Would you say the same thing about Hitler?
