i've not heard much from the expected contingent point out that, now that we've shut 1/3 of the global economy down, smog is clearing out of the sky. i do worry about someone taking some 12 monkeys inspiration out of this, if only because it would never work: look at the US, effectively saying "there are no more pollution controls anymore, please pollute all you can to save the economy." if you could nuke all the busy commerce, sure, the earth would recover. but it won't just go quietly |

also haven't heard much from the "kids are great, they will change your life" crowd recently |

and now our chef has gone off ill with it. if this thing is infectious before it's symptomatic (is it? or just in cough droplets?) we'll all have it. he's old and fat and wheezy as it is. not good, not good at all |

wife believes they fabricated it as a weapon, but I'm still holding out on that belief. IT does seem a little too convenient and tbh it does annoy me that the rest of the world is sitting in the dust of this thing while China is gallivanting back to "normalcy" |

Nobody made this, it’s been a long time coming. Of course a totalitarian state can get back to normal more quickly, their lockdown will have been far worse than the ones in any democratic country. Also they’re probably fudging their numbers to give the impression things are better than they are so they can pounce in the global leader shaped hole left by the US. |

Those broad shoulders, that thick neck, the bossy tone with that accent. I want her to admonish me for not social distancing properly while she grinds my pelvis to dust. |

I tend to agree with you...she's being silly imo.....definitely they are in a much better situation with their gazzilion checkpoints and social control measures. Can't go anywhere without showing some form of id. Also, they've had a nice head start time wise to deal with it. Fucking hoping the rest of the world can bounce back. |

I hope after this more countries give the CCP a huge middle finger |

unlikely, countries depend on them too much |

yeah they have this insidious effect on smaller countries around the world, sort of a more subtle imperialism |

Umbro just follow government advice. stay in and listen to your government mandated video at least once ever 24 hours to keep your fettle up |

interesting. so were the researchers intentionally splashed with bat blood and piss, to test transmissibility maybe? or was it just shoddy practices at the lab? were the lab's bats taken from the market, or independently collected? was the market even involved? |

(followup to hyperflake's vid not umbro) |

the bat blood and piss was actually a |

|

yeah that id like to know, i assume they got lazy with protocols. i guess handling bats is difficult, im not saying this is 100% the origin of the pandemic, but it seems very logical to me, virology lab, bats, wuhan occams razor really |

i will Guide my hands to my balls Guard them from this holy plague and Groom my pubes in the meantime |

Yeah its this sort of thing why America will ultimately suffer quite bad, we have our fair share of idiots here who read the daily mail, but there are millions of Americans who are indoctrinated by Fox News and their local pastor everyday |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Im guessing those people in the lab were secretly messing around with virus's to create a biological weapon |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|

never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity. |

Yeah its this sort of thing why America will ultimately suffer quite bad, we have our fair share of idiots here who read the daily mail, but there are millions of Americans who are indoctrinated by Fox News and their local pastor everyday i believe epidemiologists refer to these people as "clusters" (of fuck) |

meanwhile, a day after trump gets up and says "yeah, 100000 people will die, if everything goes perfectly" and less than 24hrs later they're busy gaslighting their drones to believe that trump absolutely never called the virus a hoax |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
it's not beyond the realms of possibility, the uk have had chem / bio programmes on the sly for years (porton down etc) and i assume the chinese have too. seems likelier to have been an accident i'd say though. all very like the plot of the stand just without the 99.8% mortality rate and messianic visions |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
there is so much stupid in the air, i'm having treble, er, sentences |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah its very true, one thing i would say is that if the virus is endemic in the bat population you would expect a plague like this to have happened before had, i assume the Chinese have been eating bats for thousands of years, so why the sudden jump/human transmit-ability is so high. I wouldnt put it past them meddling where they shouldn't be, but yeah thats pure speculation on my part |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah i assume most large countries have some sort of bio weapons program sometimes under the guise of medical research |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i know its unreal isnt it, its like a stupid 1984 |
||||||||
|

|
treble is my name |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
honestly, the current trump/pence gaslight campaign involves "chinese virus, it's china's fault" and i'd prefer it if we could please keep the focus on how trump refused to to take it seriously for months, thanks |

Cant see them keeping the economy closed for much longer, he will have all of corporate america breathing down his neck |

i actually imagine his meetings go more like "WHY CAN'T WE OPEN THAT ECONOMY BACK UP? THESE NUMBERS ARE KILLING ME! WE HAVE TO STOP THIS" and then sixteen people try to gently walk him back like a spoiled child being told, no, we are not going to the ice cream shoppe now |

didnt they do some really dodgy mutli trillion dollar bailout, with no congregational oversight where loads of the money will be funnelled back into his and his cronies shell companies, |

i don't think anyone really knows yet conventional wisdom applies: i'll believe it when i see a check but, meanwhile, i'm sure some people are assuming they'll simply get a check soon, and there will be some obvious blowback when some do not college students, no. elderly people who haven't filed taxes in a while, shit, we might miss you. meanwhile, it's already been made clear i, personally, will get nothing, because i make too much money. i wouldn't definite it as "too much" in my own personal terms, mind you, this is just what the govt. says. also lost, and i think it's still true, for some people it will just be a loan against payroll taxes |
