You know it's big when the xlt thread reaches 1000 posts... Supermarket around the corner from us was in the news. 20 staff tested positive and 2 have died. Jesus. |

Yikes! We've been wiping down packages with rubbing alcohol when we bring groceries and stuff home. I've been reading more about what the ronie does to people and it ain't pretty. Attacks your heart, nerves, kidneys and intestines directly, can cause long lasting reduced lung capacity, and blood clots and strokes in people in their 30s and 40s of a type that normally only happen in your 60s and 70s. It's an important thread about an important issue of the day, but nowhere near the gravity of "rate the films you see" of course. |

as long as it doesn't tax the liver, because mine is often busy the idea of swabbing my groceries with rubbing alcohol... feels tedious just to imagine it. when i caught myself starting to consider such ideas, i stopped. |

People are afraid of people, that is for sure. I went into my lobby, because now you have to go into the lobby to get newspapers. And I walked around the corner to the mail room, and a guy came out of an elevator, and he was looking at his phone and almost banged into me. And I was, like, You just got off the elevator. Could you look up? You’re not distancing. The doormen are terrified of us. They have a rope around the concierge desk. It looks like Studio 54. Right, so you expect Steve Rubell to let you in if you take your shirt off? “Come on, I’m on the list!” Some people are afraid to get their mail. Everyone says to me, “When you got the package from Amazon, did you wash it?” No, I did not. I saw a guy on the news the other night explaining how to open a package. First of all, he’s standing in a suburban kitchen the size of Grand Central Station. “Put this stuff over there.” Oh, no problem. “Leave it outside in your yard.” Oh, O.K. I also feel strongly that these Republicans are thrilled that this is happening to New York. while i am not in new york, my kitchen and living room are effectively one not very large room |

2 people died? thats horrible |

Give me convenience or give me death! I thought it was a shit pain in the ass too but once you do it a couple of times it's quick and nbd. |

Of course! Yes we do the same with every single thing that comes into the house from outside. We also strip off out of our clothes and jump in the shower after being out. Taking no chances. |
||||||||

|

yeah... all because of the incompetent manager who didn't take the right precautions for his staff |

i am not at clinical levels or anything, but i definitely have a solid OCD aspect to my personality. i'll look at my bookshelf, and say: that book is pulled out a bit further than the other books; fix it. then: no, that one is off too. ok, this one is taller than the other, swap it and at that point, it's like scratching a mosquito bite: the more i allow myself to do, the worse it gets. 45 minutes later, i'm actually furious: fucking bookshelf! fucking books still not right! i'm fucking sick of this, this is exhausting anyways, after years of being like that, eventually i learned to be very careful w/rt what i allow myself to obsess over, because that shit could be all day long |

Alcohol bans, compulsory face covering, ... why, just have have a look what the Koran has to say about pandemics, see, it makes sense, you just have to say " Ashhadu anna Laa ilaaha illaa Allah, wa anna Muhammadan rasulu Allah" and then my cousin can get you a job on the local council and you can start paying your bills again. Alright bruv? |

"I'm licking this and I don't care whatever happens" was my mission statement from 18 to 25. Must be why I identify so powerfully with the Ummah. |

“I’ve been at the White House now for many months,” Mr. Trump said, “and I’d like to get out.” resigning immediately would accomplish this immediately |

do you think ol' Moscow Joe will be any improvement you're thinking of moscow mitch. we're talkin' about hidin' biden |

|
|
i really did not want elizabeth warren to be the nominee, and well, i got my wish. thinking about her as a veep opposite of biden is actually quite an amusing thot experiment -- biden is all snoozy and steady; warren is a sensory assault of detailed liberal wonkism. i'm not sure about the election prospects, but in the white house, that would actually be very fun to watch. like two motorboats tied together with a rope. could be oddly stable in these unascertained chimes |

I know you lot don't really care and people are dying but fucking gov decided to take back their word and continue the ban on cigarettes and tobacco. I was half heartedly rooting for them (first time ever) but they're quickly losing my support..... over tobacco! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so you can buy booze now? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Still can’t get that either, thing is they promised to bring back tobacco tomorrow but then changed their minds again. Booze they never said anything. I'm considering going to the pharmacy to get a bottle of cough syrup and party it up Monoid style. Not like they're giving us much of a choice. |
||||||||
|

Pretty sure Monoid's dead by now. |

I don't understand the rationale. Do they want a nation full of irritable people suffering nicotine fits? You can't just take away a man's baccy. Dunno about other people but nicotine withdrawal makes me "I quit, I want a divorce, I'm gonna kill you" angry. To say nothing of the delirium tremens for hardcore alcoholics. |

the stock price is too damn high there was some interview in rolling stone or that sort of rag, musk said Musk disagrees. Strongly. “It’s not true,” he replies petulantly. “I will never be happy without having someone. Going to sleep alone kills me.” He hesitates, shakes his head, falters, continues. “It’s not like I don’t know what that feels like: Being in a big empty house, and the footsteps echoing through the hallway, no one there – and no one on the pillow next to you. Fuck. How do you make yourself happy in a situation like that?” guy 100% extrovert; hates being alone. it had occurred to me that all this might wear on him. i feel bad for him, really |

that is such a wonderful sound |

it might sound nice on the page but reality is indeed a different story ja we legit ran out (sucking on some old vapey e-cig from long ago every now and again). Those feelings of divorce and murder crop up a little but we're trying our best as neither of us want either |

many people here are pissed, because they think its really just a flu. since germany did a good job people are now complaining about empty hospital beds and stuff. there were lots of demonstrations in berlin |

Quebec's premier wanted to reopen some businesses on the 11th but still we have too much Death. I know waterheads letting their kids play with kids in the street, because nothing bad can ever happen to me, just those other people. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i still think i had it already. i had the weirdest flu some weeks ago. not crazy bad but scary. i had fever and chills that made me shiver like fuck. i don't remember when i ever had chills like that |

how is living in quebec these days? i remember montreal was quite corrupt in 2010. i hope that decade is over now |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Still corrupt as fuck, we have a new mayor who seems idealistic but for all we know the corruption has yet to be exposed. I'm assuming the mob still fills a lot of public contracts. But the mob, last I heard, was full of turf wars. Don't think they've consolidated yet. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
interesting, in berlin we have arabic clans who are more like classic criminals (robbing/ protection money/ fraud) but they are not really intertwined with society i remember deserted skeletons of buildings in montreal that were never finished because building agencies were corrupt. thats a whole nother level. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yep, they're into everything. Construction, public contracts for snow removal etc... aren't unfinished buildings normal?! Your Arabic clans remind me of our . Beware of alliances with more ambitious organizations. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
On the other hand how is this substantially different from "normal" operation of the state in which the entire thing is set up as a protection racket that takes donations from the rich to defend their class interests? The only difference is that the mob is a little more honest, and humble. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, definitely. i think some clan people are pretty clever guys who just never had the opportunity to enter that society though proper integration, education and stuff, so they found their own "humble" way to make streetsmart to business and also yes, we still have that airport in berlin that was supposed to be opened |

i remember my ex in montreal lecturing me about buying drugs from a stranger is super dangerous… with the argument that she would only buy them from hells angels… |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Heh. I was with a friend in Laval (1 bridge north of Montreal) and he stopped at a Hells controlled brasserie to buy some drugs. He left me on the corner at a bus stop with strict instructions to not move and not speak to anyone no matter what I saw or heard. Everything was fine but things get shooty in Laval frequently. In Corona news, the rest of Quebec now wants to cut Montreal loose and let it drift into space, because we are too stupid to practice social distancing. |
