With respect there is a HUGE difference between a Stormtrooper costume and someone dressed up as a police officer. No sane person believes a Stormtrooper is an authority figure that can act with the weight of law. 

Oddly enough they also don’t think they have any responsibility for avoiding infection so they don’t spread it to anyone at all. Strange Christian attitude, strange party of responsibility attitude, strange party of life attitude.

It’s almost like these conservative personalities are running some long con on the conservative Christians of the country to enrich themselves and gain power. 

Agreed. In the mind of the rich and political it’s always our fault, our lack of work, our lack of discipline, our lack of planning. Oh no, it is never the fault of the people in charge and too many of us just bite down deep on that shit sandwich and agree that we are the cause of the problem instead of the bystander…

I’ve been in the same boat for most of my career. Meetings all day in rooms designed for 8 people packed with 10+. I’m so grateful right now because both my wife and I can work from home and our industries are essential and running during all of this. 

I’m also curious to how social distancing is supposed to happen in the workplace according to these politicians. I’ve never had a single job where I could stay 6ft away from people all day long every day in any office space, or work area. I’m sure there are some jobs that allow it but a majority? I wouldn’t put money…

D because they’re sick of this human nonsense going on. 

I’m sitting on my ass giving 0 fucks about productivity more or less. What I care about is not being stressed, not letting myself slide on sleep, and keeping myself in good spirits because those all contribute to better health and immune response. That is more important than making sure an extra report is done extra…

Now I know where all of the F grade students, group project shirkers, and never study for a test students in my college classes landed....

Trump should be going to prison for the way he is politicizing supply shipments.

I’d have to be hospitalized for laughing in my company’s face too hard and injuring myself if this was suggested to me. Well, 6ft away from my company’s face due to social distancing.

We have to wait out the really stupid people for certain. All of the Instagrammers, YouTubers, etc. that are going around and licking things in stores, all of the beachgoers, trailhead congregates, etc. that think this is all some game.

Their billionaire masters will not be ok with that. Let’s not kid ourselves that most Democrats are beholden to the 1% as much as the Republicans.

Won’t someone think of the portfolios!

I’m still surprised he didn’t get off entirely. He’s the Madoff of this decade I guess. The sacrificial rich white guy to “prove” the system is fair to the plebs.

My first clue something is a BMW isn’t the logo. Is the car parked in 2 spots, or maybe three? Is it cutting me off on the freeway without using a turn signal? Is the driver reading from reports or a laptop while holding their phone and driving with their knees while merging into traffic or changing lanes into the…

This is true in my case. I got totally screwed by my first new American car, the dealership that sold it to me, and the corporation when I called them about the dealer’s practices. As a result I’ve never bought another American car and won’t. 

Well... I’ve seen it a couple of times. I worked with one of these sorts of folks at a large telecom, and he sent these types of e-mails and voiced this sort of behavior in meetings. He now works for Boeing as a matter-a-fact.

None of this surprises me. My wife and are friends with a couple of RWA members, and were friends with another. As writers ourselves (non-romance) we’ve been to a handful of RWA events with our RWA friends and there is an odd sort of toxic pleasantness that the writers seem to exhibit towards one another. The way they…

And I hope that your life is going better too! You are worthy of respect and the freedom to live your life not fearing your own family.
