Dutch organisation for cinemas has released a (draft) protocol that they could reopen with 70-75% less capacity. Imagine that, and then think about concert venues, festivals, theatres, bars, restaurants, fucking Las Vegas. It's impossible that they can survive economically in this 1.5meter distance economy.

Perhaps I should just stop reading the news in the morning

Things hit close today when I was informed my personal gym trainer has tested positive. Thankfully, I also hadn't met with him since the 10th, so there's a solid window of distance.


I've also detected zero symptoms, including any sort of loss of smell, so I feel I'm likely safe all in all.


Once this is over, and we're all healthy, I'm going to need him to get myself relatively summer-body ready. :D

Oh tell me about it. Looked in the mirror the other day and I'm squishier than before. Had to have a word with myself about that.

Here's to getting back to climbing asap

All things considered, I'm relatively stable in the 265lb range. Maybe a little bit lower depending on what I've eaten, but longer term I'm sure I'll creep back up. And that's okay. There's always in the future to return to form. Plus I'm hoping small nagging pains clear up in the meantime.


Fitness is a journey, not a sprint.

So you're, lessee, approximately 116.12kg? That's... I haven't stepped on a scale in ages, but I don't think I can be over 70kg (and 1.74m tall). NOT saying you're fat, mind you, just bigger. :)

I must spread some (negative) Reputation around before giving it to The Soup Nazi again.

Fucking submicroscopic parasite took Soft Boy Matthew Seligman from us. :(:mad:

I'm reading the Twitter of John Pollock without knowing who he is. But this is one of the tweets he posted yesterday:

#education@joshtpm: 'Las Vegas Mayor offers city as "control group", "we offer to be a control group" to see how many people die without social distancing. '
Here is the video

I wish they would have the complete interview, perhaps it's somewhere.

But if you are in Nevada, or any nearby state: Evacuate NOW! Jesus fucking Christ!

_tunic_ 04.24.2020 06:45 AM

OK, I had a long thought about the situation in Las Vegas, and it actually makes perfect sense to me now! The world's fastest magician currently resides there, he can cure the city in no-time!
You don't need Light or Bleach anymore, you've got Klok!

incubation period can be as long as 14 days so you’re right on the cusp of the all clear, but some people are asymptomatic and still contagious, so you prolly need 28 full days before emerging. hard to know what to do without tests or reasonable guidance anymore. i said bye by to my trainer over 40 days ago.

Not only that: it's been reported (by serious media, with empirical data - you know, everything that's alright to hate these days) that some infected people who have come out of the other end as fine as possible have contracted the damn thing AGAIN.

With Dotard doing nothing but watch Faux News all day, Bill Gates is gonna have to donate the other half of his fortune to get us a vaccine ASA-fuckin'-P.

Sensible tv stations (fuck off, Fox) should NOT air the daily shitshow. Then they could show the very few minutes of important/truthful parts later on, without the stupidity/lies/attacks/politics/propaganda/campaigning.

They're making the same mistake they made in 2016 by broadcasting live and in full "the Monty Python version of the Nuremberg Rallies", as someone described them. And what ended up happening that time...? :mad:

Skuj 04.24.2020 09:01 PM

No sooner do I post about that when today, The Shitshow becomes 25min, with a lot less bullshit!! Someone actually got to Trump? (I hear they told him his poll numbers are falling because of this.)
