Amazon at least has been deleting price gouging listings.  But I sat in disbelief yesterday when I heard a public health official (and I forgot who it was) say that we shouldn’t price control during epidemics because it can cause hoarding like this.  So instead, we should let the rich spread out the price gouged ones,…

He’s probably got it on Ebay now for $60 a bottle.  I hate people.

Not one single person on earth is immune from this virus. The incubation time is still not completely known. Quarantine it was 2 weeks, but now 24 days. The delay between catching it and symptoms showing is vague, but not quick, providing plenty of time to infect others.

So sorry for your family’s worry, pain and struggle. Some of us can make jokes right now, but you are one of the people who really might be affected by this virus and it is not funny at all. Strength and best wishes to you and your family. 

What the hell! Soap everyone. Use Soap. Then don’t pick your nose.

“Physicians advised that the best way to avoid infection was to leave the sick for dead and flee”

That’s definitely Katie Waldman, newlywed to Stephen fucking Miller

I don’t think it’s assholish to want to protect your family. If you had the means to leave an area where disease is spreading, you’d do it in a heartbeat. Obviously it would be awful if all the physicians dip out and leave everyone to die but that’s not happening (yet).

Don’t worry, if you’re insured you can’t catch anything from people who are uninsured. That’s just science!

Yo, anybody remember the short story “The Masque of the Red Death”? Your health is only as secure as the least-cared-for member of your society.  

A friend of mine was in a grocery store yesterday. Although the store asked customers to buy a maximum of 5 bottles of hand sanitizer, she observed a lovely gentleman clear the entire shelf of product. Like, dozens of bottles. When asked politely by staff not to take the last of their supply, he screamed that he was a…

Douchebag gotta douchebag.

Yeah, I’ve always thought he was way too “metrosexual” for a Republican congressman. My gaydar (I am a cishet woman) is so extremely dysfunctional that I generally only find gay men hot, and back when I was a dumb 19-year-old evangelical Republican (I was raised by two of ’em) I saw his Cosmo spread and thought he was…

“I also hope that in sharing my story it might help shine a light for young people, raised the way I was, looking for a path out of darkness and shame.”

Ugh, Jimmy Kimmel! Ben Affleck was trying to tell a story that obviously meant a lot to him and Kimmel couldn’t stop talking over him. WTF? Also, Adam Driver is a heck of a guy for doing that for his friend.

It’s probably his call - he’s a Buddhist and part of a community based in Japan. (My husband is a non-active member of the same organization.)

Um, Katy, a simple question: If its not about the party, then why are you getting married in Japan? You did India last time and it didn’t seem to take, so I challenge you as to why the people you cherish so much are forced to fly halfway around the planet to attend your “it.s not about the party” party?

I can’t tell from Mischa’s post if she’s coming back or not lol.
