Despite coronavirus lockdowns, blooming cherry blossoms draw crowds in DC, Tokyo

Honestly, this **** might get our constitution suspended.

When your country is hedging its bets and hoping China, Italy, and Iran are flukes and this will all blow over without having to disrupt capitalism the populace will follow their example cause they don't want their normal interrupted either.

This is the sort of thing that is very scary. Young, healthy, fit athlete not able to breathe on his own.

Just in case any of you want to know what a test for Covid-19 looks like.

I bet that feels good af though, like when you halfway swallow spaghetti and pull it back out of your throat.

Most have said it's quite uncomfortable but, hey, to each his/her own.

Unless you’re already with a compromised immune system. A shotgun right up on you is every bit as scary as a hydrogen bomb. If this thing was more aggressive with young people it would actually be better for old folks. Not that I want young people to fall ill but watching that spring break **** was pretty ass chapping. Although just a week before they shut down the bars and restaurants here the place I worked at was packed with rich arrogant Trump believing boomers. I was mortified but all I heard was it’s just the flu.

I had a dude come into the shop to sell me records yesterday (we're closed but we still need to buy stock unfortunately) who thought the "whole thing was bulls*hit". I laughed because I thought he was joking but he genuinely thought that the entire planet was exaggerating the crisis and that none of this was actually real. I immediately just started talking about the records he brought in instead of engaging in that sort of drivel. Dude was from Pennsylvania and probably drove ten under the speed limit in the passing lane to get to the shop, the f*cking moron. But hey at least I bought some King Crimson from him.

Bro if those checks start coming before VA quarantines for real I'm quitting my job cause my fatass, asthmatic, smoking ass can't afford to assume I'll be fine cause I'm only 33. Bitch when I get a cold I'm hocking up gallons of phlegm for two weeks after all other symptoms are gone.
