This is why I turned off the NFL draft after about an hour. Well, and hour and a half because the first 30 minutes of what should have been drafting was more of this stuff. I wanted to watch the NFL draft to escape from this shit for a while and be entertained by the only sports event going on right now. Instead I'm being reminded of the current situation every 15 seconds by the NFL and the comercials.

There was an audiobook about orcs I almost pulled the trigger on once. I think there is an active subgenre here about orc life. It's probably extremely niche, but then so were the power armor and litRPG subgrenres at one time until they exploded.

"People don't like to be meddled with. We tell them what to do, what to think, don't run, don't walk. We're in their homes and in their heads and we haven't the right. We're meddlesome."

In theory, if this current black death is as bad as the Experts say, California will have NY level death tolls in about 3 weeks.Ph64 wrote: ↑Sat Apr 25, 2020 8:37 amEh, the country couldn't care less about losing some Californians.C-Mag wrote: ↑Fri Apr 24, 2020 9:19 pmBeaches open, over 10k swarm.

1000 deaths per Million. Which would be 40,000 deaths over the next 6 weeks.
