lol my dumb loving in laws are flying from WA state to AZ for vacation/to see relatives and then flying to FL right after that to visit other relatives there. My husband and I have just made peace that they are suicidal and the fact that my MIL has multiple heart problems that could end her at any moment already means COVID is going to be an absolute death sentence. They were literally bullying my husband and I for refusing to come to a birthday party 2 weeks ago. Said "oh only 2 people have died in our county, it isn't a big deal!" when both my husband and I work at companies that have had deaths from COVID on site really early on.

Yall ever just like... think about the fever dream that was January and February? I looked at my online order history and verify that I did in fact order a whole poo poo ton of beans the day the guy with covid showed up in a seattle hospital. And then I remember that no one did jack loving poo poo about anything in this country until like march 20th?

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)

I used to have panic attacks when I was in college and mostly that would be gasping for breath and trying to stop feeling like I was dying. Havent had one for like 10 years now but uh yeah seems like it would make sense for them to come back. My coworker got direct exposed last week and so now I have to pick up the slack at work while he quarantined and not allowed to step foot on work property. My in laws are in AZ trying to get covid. silicone thrills has issued a correction as of 02:01 on Jul 12, 2020 |

I keep rubbing it in peoples faces that I was right and that im not a lunatic for buying a bunch of food and saying this was gonna go on for 2 years. Also lol Like 150 University of Washington frat folks are already infected in Seattle and that's just with a few of the bros in their houses hanging around for the summer. All schools are hosed. On the aneurysm thing: I worked with a guy who had one in his mid 30s. He was off for like 6 months and he came back too soon. He didn't remember anyone and yelled at me when I went into his office. It was pretty shocking. A few years later he apologized to me and said he just came back too soon but he also couldn't stand being at home for so long and he was just going insane.

Pyrus Malus posted:I am real interested at hearing everyone's takes on the psychological impact of this whole thing - not really the long term impact, but how everyone around you is immediately coping with this. reason I'm interested is I seem to be the only person taking this seriously out of my dispersed group of long-term friends, who I at least have always assumed aren't idiots, and it's starting to make me feel crazy I've had severe depression with suicidal ideations since I was like 12 years old. Anxiety and pretty bad PTSD due to growing up with some serious violence. This has overall been nothing for me. It's just nice to actually have people understand when I said "yeah im really overwhelmed right now and need a minute" because now they loving get it? The only thing i've been stressed about and have had panic attacks over or anything is the fact that my dipshit in laws went to AZ and they're gonna loving catch it and die and im sure we're gonna get a ton of social pressure to attend their funerals.(this is really how my brain processes this) Also my coworker is on quarantine and our team is only 3 people and i'm picking up his slack by having to go on site more often to a location where people have caught covid and died. I've had a convergence of a ton of poo poo in the last week. But overall im fine. This is just life. I've always worked through it. Also its really nice to not have to "Dress up" every day for work and pretend that I care what I wear. I was just letting the girls hang free at work today because no one was there and who the gently caress cares. ITS GREAT.

Kreeblah posted:If anything, I've been pretty surprised at how much this has been impacting people. It really loving sucks, sure, and I very much want to go be social with people, but I've gone through way worse for most of my life (including fighting for years to keep a lifelong, degenerative, eventually-terminal illness from killing me for as long as I can), so I think I tend to lose sight of how much of a difference this can make in people's lives. Goon friend. I live in Seattle and holy poo poo half my coworkers refuse to wear their masks at work. Like they seem to think they are immune when they are inside our building or something. It's wild poo poo. We were moving offices and everyone in my IT group was careful AF about keeping our masks on while moving stuff from one floor to another and like the facilities dumbasses kept dropping their masks below their nose and poo poo too. Then when food came around they all ate together around one table while us IT folks just kept looking at them like they were lepers. And im just like. lol. Slowly going mad. They look at me when i'm insane a lot when i'm like "yeah I literally only leave my house now if I absolutely have to and will lose my job if I dont" ALSO just to add to this: We contract for a company that has had deaths on site and we go on site to that location constantly so its not like the threat of death isnt real here.

sonatinas posted:I think there was this quack earthquake scare in the early 90s in Memphis. I am remembering some kids were not in class one day because somebody claimed an earthquake was going to happen. lol I grew up in Memphis and my parents totally didnt send my brother and sister to school that day. My grandparents used to tell us about the big one that reshaped the region. And its like everyone forgot about it until the late 80s and then suddenly everyone was like "oh poo poo we should probably like earthquake strap houses and poo poo" I used to think about it all the time any time I passed by triple decker freeway exchanges - how nothing was built to survive. Accounts of the quake literally say the MS river ran backwards. Also there's tons of cool rear end swamps with ghost trees and poo poo from it.

Both my parents worked and weren't in jobs where they could like... get home when I got home from school so I had a key to my house at age 6 and the rule was I had to stay around our yard until a parent got home then I pretty much ran out and ran around till dark.

Wait so when did actually camping in the woods become a rich people thing? I grew up really not well off (houses in the neighborhood I'm from still go for 30,000) but camping was universally like super cheap fun. Don't even need a tent if the weather is good. Tarps are a good plan tho.

Schmeichy posted:Some children grow up in cities and never see animals but pigeons Definitely but for anyone who grew up in a city that doesn't have mass transportation and having a car is a necessity, camping tends to be common. I grew up in Memphis in the inner city there and that's like the only time we ever did anything outside the norm was camping. I'm just weirded out by folks who seem to think it's like some fancy poo poo.

Schmeichy posted:Having the time off to plan and go is a luxury now. Plus the required knowledge and skills means it's not really safe for anyone to just do on a whim Can definitely agree that the planning is a luxury and time intensive task. Outside of covid times, I really encourage it. It's really low stakes and low cost and staring up at the sky with no light pollution and being able to see all the stars is amazing. During covid times do not. I drove by some common camping areas after a hike and holy poo poo people are packing into all the camp spots.

I'm in a camping chat where I asked for some trip reports and the consensus was that anything within 4 hours of Seattle is overrun: Yep! Holy poo poo I drove by ranger creek and it was like a loving party zone. Same with The Dallas. Thought about doing distributed camping off a forest road but realized it just isn't worth it and I'll stay home and keep doing short walks into the bigger park near where I live and be thankful for that.
