Kansas lookin good

Here's Wichita, the most populous city in KS



Here's Johnson County, an extremely wealthy suburb of Kansas City




Johnson County has had 878 recoveries and 88 deaths. People are, of course, refusing to wear face masks.

I paint things
So I went hiking yesterday and afterwards I stopped at a couple of camp grounds I had been thinking about camping at in the future and wanted to get an idea of the layouts. I had a weird loving experience at one of them.

One of them we pulled into had like a massive group of like 6 RVs made into like a corral. Like 40+ people, no one wearing masks and seriously a sign that said "free haircuts" and they like all creepily waved at us as we drove by. Saw nothing like it at any of the other spots we stopped at and never seen anything like it before in the 10+ years i've been camping and doing outdoors stuff around this area.

This was at Ranger Creek camp ground and airstrip off 410 near mt rainier in WA.

I think all those people wanna get the 'roni and give it to any random person who takes them up on that free haircuts sign. Also the campground was absolutely full and every single other campground we saw. Even though all the bathroom facilites are closed by the state due to being unable to keep them safe/clean. All those people are probably making GBS threads with out digging holes or carrying it out. (most campers we saw were tent camping)

he really did, if it weren't for the NBA shutting down the NCAA wouldn't have either and who knows whether or when schools and colleges would have followed suit

It would have been like pulling teeth and probably wouldn't have happened for weeks if Adam Silver didn't fire the starting gun

I feel like this is getting less and less true every day. Sure, at the present moment it's prevented thousands, maybe tens of thousands of deaths, but it's plainly obvious now that those deaths are coming anyway. Maybe having a huge initial shock like Italy might have scared more people into compliance, rather than so many hosed up American brains deciding that no, it's pointless to distance and wear masks

This is so loving stupid because telling people "this is just how it is now" isn't going to fix the economy like they want it to because no one is going to go to a restaurant or get on an airplane as long as this is out of control. And the general lack of security in the future is going to stop people from making major purchases. It's the worst possible course of action.

At the restaurant we've been seeing fewer and fewer total customers for each successive week. There's talks about closing front-of-house back down and going to takeout only.

i listen to a lot of podcasts from comedians in LA and holy moly they are loving devastated. every single one is pretty much beyond the grieving stage and completley given up on ever doing stand up comedy ever again. the rich chuddier types like adam carolla and joe rogan are still flying out to loving texas and arizona to do shows but their days are numbered. but yeah take care of yourself and your friends, i've heard more than one podcast with comedians talking in hushed tones about a suicide of a freiend. it's going to get really rough for them.

There are so many industries that are just... gone in a poof of COVID. And we're only in the past month or so starting to see the second round of layoffs in industries that aren't directly related to hospitality. poo poo's just gonna keep getting worse.

so Covid really is beginning to feel like the end of the world huh. like, no end in sight. no long term plan about how capitalist economies intend to adapt with service sector jobs either cratering or becoming a matter of life or death to perform. I keep thinking ok maybe someone will do a UBI but the Canadian government where I live has only been like “ok well TWO MORE MONTHS OF CERB BUT THATS IT!” like this whole thing is just buck wild on so many levels. never thought I’d live to see anything like this.

anyone know of any issues that could arise from incentivizing people to lie about how they got infected?

also lol at the idea that traveling 100 miles is going to matter in texas by September

I know someone who got fired because she went out (to a restaurant, I think?) and posted pictures all over her social media

kind of an odd edge case though because she volunteered to return to the office to be part of a special transition team and had to agree to not go out for anything non-essential while she was doing it

I was going to start doing my job search this year with the intent that my thesis defense would be next year but every conference and event was cancelled or shifted to an online only event where nothing really matters. I've been joking for the past 4 years that the economy would poo poo the bed right as I'm about to finish grad school and wouldn't you loving know it, it did. Now I have no motivation to do anything anymore honestly but i can't drop out because at least I'm making some money instead of no money right now.
