Oh man that's so harsh. I'm really sorry you have such a heavy load going on. This is hard enough as it is. I know I'm just a message board persona, but you have my deepest sympathies.

Sorry to hear. Let's wallow in each other's misery during this time.

Oh...the Trump Daily Shitshow is about the begin...... (Or "How not to do a briefing".)

It's ok to not pay attention for a bit of time, and get footnotes later. Save your mental health and the stress.

Skuj 04.18.2020 05:45 PM

I'm at "work". News channel is on. It can't be helped. The same old lies came out about the Iran pipeline to Europe, the money Obama sent to Iran, how Trump saved us all from war with North Korea, etc etc etc.

They talked a bit about the virus, also.

OH FUCK.

when it rains it fucking pours. hang in there chef. so sorry about your friend, family, projects.

but you got this. you’ve got talent, and skills, and good looks hahaahaaa, and you’ll come out of this strong. it just... takes a fucklot of patience... yeah.

also, there’s worse food than take away food... you should try the processed american crap i’ve been eating... you’d laugh or cry or both. yesterday i ate beef stew from a can that better people than me have used to feed their dogs. but hey, it has 25g protein per can.

 


(although i think the meatball is made from lungmeat or something)

but anyway, that’s life during wartime, our grandparents & their grandparents had it much worse. we just gotta do our part. better on the sofa than in the trenches.

hang in there... life comes back after winter. this is just an extra-long one.

i generally stay away from teevee so never heard about this and would have probably skipped anyway.

but yeah i like the stones. did they play “you can’t always get what you want”? it would be so fitting lol.
