Americans are the greediest, most self-congratulating, most selfish people on earth. It’s very hard to overstate what a terrible culture we’ve created.

Pretty sure the Saudis and Russians have us beat there, but we'll catch up eventually.

Nah we're dumb and self-absorbed as **** and when the government refuses to give anyone paid sick leave, vacation, or healthcare we're also forced to be selfish by continuing to go to work and endangering our health and everyone else's as well just to not starve.

I'm cool with people still having to work, and be careful. I have to do it as I have to pay my bills, and pay for a hospital stay that my insurance didn't even want to pay anything towards. I'm talking about people doing everything in their power to leave their house. I saw groups of families having easter egg hunts, parties with big groups of friends. I get it's a holiday and all, but Jesus didn't die for some upper middle class families playing find the plastic eggs with cheap candy in them.

There's just too many people out when there's a lockdown.

As states around the country issue "stay-at-home" orders to curb the spread of the coronavirus, firearms and ammunitions retailers have been classified as essential businesses, according to updated guidance from the federal government.
Presumably in case this turns into a zombie apocalypse.

Boris Johnson #StayHomeSaveLives
@BorisJohnson

It is hard to find the words to express my debt to the NHS for saving my life.

The efforts of millions of people across this country to stay home are worth it. Together we will overcome this challenge, as we have overcome so many challenges in the past. #StayHomeSaveLives

Hopefully he will appreciate them more in future. Let's see if he will get his team of Tory cunts to give all of them a pay increase instead of cheering and laughing after voting it down.

I dont mind working. It's the people that are doing unnecessary things that gets irritating. I'm already putting myself at risk being an essential employee, but they said nothing about having to deal with the stupid people who refuse to believe anything is going on.

This **** is terrifying and I'm anxious and nervous every day at work now. All it takes is one person to come in and spread it around. Dont be that person.

All the stores round here have “no mask no service” signs.

Assume everyone who walks in has it. If there’s a way to make it through the exchange keeping six feet the entire time do it. Be assertive. Tell them not to approach and stand six feet away and when you come up they back up. I know you get weirdos who you can’t negotiate with and people who will escalate the problem by getting upset and loud. You’re in a tough situation. I think Seattle might be worse than others because a lot of young people live there and a lot of rich people there believe stupid dangerous ****.

Good luck to you.

Saw a new track on your bandcamp feed btw
