    If you want to have a discussion in a certain direction, stop trying to bait a discussion in an entirely different direction. "My cousin who owns low income housing is saying his tenants are going to use the stimulus money to buy TVs and phones to boost the economy!!!" Right.

    Heh. The rental assistance programs around here almost never cover the full rent payment. It's a portion. Let's not be intellectually dishonest here. The original post was about a cousin who wanted to complain about his low income tenants misappropriating our tax money in ways that aren't...

    Yea you're probably right. "Low income housing" doesn't at all mean rental assistance. What do I know. I'm just a landlord. Give me a break...

    People on welfare can't get laid off. Why should your cousin give a shit about this? A section 8 apartment complex. Woe is me.

    Who actually thinks this is always "just a cold" for otherwise healthy people like that guy was suggesting? Pneumonia fucking sucks. So does the flu. Both of those things could kill you but it's unlikely if you don't have other pre-existing conditions. I've had pneumonia... I've had really bad...

    There are some sympathetic characters who you might genuinely feel sorry for, but for the most part it's a bunch of narcissistic sociopaths who like to hoard exotic animals for profit.

    Fat He-Man lookalike on a jetski with Survivor playing in the background is the best part. And don't forget about the ex-drug dealer who has killed people with a circular saw and is somehow out of jail.

    If only it was just teenagers and college students acting foolish. Unfortunately there are a lot of entitled, foolish people of all ages which is why we find ourselves in situations with mandated closures and shutdowns.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    As the season goes on we are probably going to see a lot of new builds based on cube variations. Early in the season people usually focus on what they already know is good and new sets/item changes. I think by the end of the season there is gonna be a ton of variety that hasn't been there before.

    Confirmed cases isn't the number to look at. It's how much PPE, testing capacity, and healthcare capacity we have that matters in when we can all get back to work which is in the works now. It should go without saying the timeline on being able to test and combat this virus changes economic...

    Listen to this Ivory Tower horse shit. This is not a normal situation. The DPA isn't going to be invoked forever and ever and never get shut down. We are in an emergency. All of us are being asked to make sacrifices, but private corporations are still allowed to operate normally and make no...

    Bud, millions of people have lost or are going to lose their jobs. Hospitals don't have enough PPE to be able to give proper care. This is a very real issue.

    Based on the anecdotal evidence it seems like the people in your area being a lot more responsible than most of the rest of the country and taking their own personal accountability to limit spread seriously. And taking a correct course of action if they show symptoms and are concerned.

    Here is my understanding from being a situation similar to you, close friends and an ex girlfriend who are all nurses or hospital staff. 190 active cases with 1) Very little testing capacity to date 2) MANY people panicking and showing up at hospitals with minor systems so the confirmed case...
