I've been struggling with family disagreements over contact too. I like the phrase, "loving detachment." At best, you really care for them but you can't be responsible for their actions.

On the other hand, they sure as hell can't tell you what's right for your family. Establish your boundaries, and do not budge, do not debate!

It's easy to just do what others want. You're having a hard time because it's hard to go against the grain and do what's right.

The greater concern at least in the field I work in is jobs leaving for safer areas globally. If production moves to canada people are going to try and abuse the system to get travel exemptions if their livelihood depends on it.

I have more sympathy for people who are in a situation where their livelihood depends on it even if it is stupid and dangerous. You'd hope that people who lose their jobs would have the support they need so they didn't need to cross borders but yeah we live in hellworld so...

Cruise tourists on the other hand are just selfish and governments should definitely ban them. We've already seen how cruise ships turn into plague ships several times.

Michigan is starting to reopen now and it's not looking good. MI had one of the strictest lock downs and reduced the curve dramatically for a while, but now people are sort of going apeshit, eating in restaurants, no masks, etc, and poo poo's going to get bad again fast. Strange to see how people have become blasé about it so quickly, like the early success is going to sabotage everything now.

This is exactly what happened here in Ohio too since we've idiotically been about a month ahead of y'all. Things were mostly under control in late April or early May but now our new cases are starting to spiral out of control because no one wants to wear a mask or not drink at their favorite bar. :hotpickle:

Why would they allow cruises to sweden? We're the covid capital of the North. I totally understand why other countries ban our tourists. I think most people are fine with not being allowed to go on holiday in another country this year except politicians and media who are really mad at not being allowed in.

I think they're only doing cruises to Estonia right now, but traditionally Swedish cruises are also a big thing.

Are the non-reuseable paper masks better or worse than a cloth mask that I wash every time I go out? Is there even a significant difference?

It's far too late for anything to matter because our dumbass state opened up everything from restaurants to bars to zoos to offices far too early. Maybe if DeWine didn't arbitrarily kill the lockdown order back in May then maybe we wouldn't be totally hosed!!

Also my girlfriend let me know earlier this afternoon that her sister's boyfriend was probably exposed to COVID through a positive worker at the restaurant he works at. I'm in contact with him and everyone who lives in their household most days of the week including the entire 4th of July weekend, so uh, near certain probability I have Coronavirus and so does my girlfriend even after we took extensive precautions so that's cool. loving love America. Best nation on this dying gay earth. :911:

So I've been looking, and I can't find any cool masks for sale that have, like, a mouth design on 'em. Dorky superhero faces or pop culture ones would work. I'm just bored of having a plain blank mask. Anyone know of any good websites selling masks like that?

Edit: Redbubble is a bad site, and isn't Zazzle also bad? And nothing good pops up on Etsy.

Perhaps sharpie’ing “gently caress Trump” on your mask would be a good idea? Also, you can get high on the chemicals.
