they're opening up businesses around me, but we're at about 1-2 cases a day and they're being really cautious about it so i think we should hopefully be ok. critically though, we just made masks mandatory whenever people are in stores, which makes me feel much better, safer about going out for supplies. the few times i went out in new hampshire, there were a bunch of people without masks being dipshits. so that's nice. apparently you have to mandate it to get people to take basic precautions to keep each other from dying, if the danger isn't directly observable

my daughter wanted to try my Indian food so I gave her a tiny amount even tho it was pretty spicy. she immediately demanded more and stuffed it into her face, then coughed and drank a bunch of milk, then demanded a third helping.

now I get my Indian and Thai food medium+ instead of hot+ so we can share :3: it owns to have a lil food buddy because my wife doesn’t eat anything with flavour beyond garlic and black pepper.

I stopped using garlic in my own cooking because I got sick of my food stinking true story


but yeah basically you can’t heat up food at work that has onions or garlic etc unless you want all the drugs to taste like farts for three days

people have lots of trouble with things that require distributed cooperative action that they may not observe a large group participating in

like not littering, or staying on trails, or not touching things, or climate change, or basically not being destructive assholes

because it’s just them doing it this one time or just rarely so it’s totally ok and then thousands of them think the exact same thing

28 more work days until my RSU cliff.

Not sure yet what I'll be counting towards after I finally get it. Maybe just until individual paychecks. Favorable long term capital gains treatment is too far away to start that.

it is butt gently caress egypt, but it applies to anywhere that no one lives and there's nothing to do. i dont think its specifically racist towards the egyptian people and their flyover areas

sticking by my plans of voluntarily avoiding all the dumbos going out rn. columbus has people lining up to pack into restaurants so yeah, its gonna be another wave soon

they have the capacity, i guess??? half the people in our neighborhood dont get the concept of masks or distances of more that two feet anyways so this is just fast tracking their lax behavior

ive been putting off my monthly allergy shots and was trying to weigh the risk of going right away or waiting until june since im behind by two months now. guess I'll wait because i know people werent respecting the 'don't get your treatments when sick' requirement before, so why should they start now

baker released plans for "reopening" massachusetts. an awful lot is staying the same, some of it is ok, some of it is very dumb. like hair salons and barbers can reopen. the guidelines for doing so are basically use hospital levels of PPE and change out everything between customers...but loving lol if anyone's gonna actually do that 100%.

the bulk of the country seems to be moving towards ill-advised premature and sloppy reopening so yeah, i'm still staying holed up and letting my hair grow out a while longer (i'd buzz cut it or something right now but i've never let it grow before so hey let's experiment! results so far: this sucks lol)

i found my old clippers from college and did a light tapered trim to the sides and back, but didnt quite go for the top yet since i can still part it in a convincingly normal way. at the worst ms vector will try to trim the top and I'll clip it to 1 inch if that looks goofy

it's not racist, but you can just replace the "egypt" part with any place thats far away.

it just refers to some place in the middle of nowhere. originates from the military in the 70s.

i haven't heard it pronounced in forever, it's just been "BFE" around here for ages.
