Where's the petri dish thread?

And if it was a snowstorm the reasons for staying home are the same. You not only risk your life, but others.

That's why I used it as an example.
Can't live in fear of something we can't ultimately control ( know one really knows how cancelling the NBA will solve things -- they ( and I know these are professionals who study the virus ) are taking measured predictions and that's fair -- I just think they are erring waayyy on the side of being cautious.
Me as an individual has chosen to risk my own life. The others on the road are doing the same. Don't force us to not be able to make those decisions.

If people are nervous to go to a basketball game, they absolutely shouldn't.
They should follow the advice of the authorities.

If I was forcing people to drive with me who didn't want to or if I was driving my car in a snowstorm in a populated neighborhood, then yes, that's wrong.

You have no idea at this moment if you'll get the virus.
Or get hit by a car.
Or die of a heart attack.

You should absolutely warn and advise people but shouldn't force them.
And if i'm not forced and end up getting sick and dying, that is on me.

I was expecting a flood of cancellation requests this morning at work, but besides a couple basic inquiring-but-not-yet-cancellings, we’ve had all of one actual cancellation, and only cuz it was a corporate group that had to cancel cuz of a corporate policy just issued against travel.

I’m impressed with how steadfast y’all are about traveling.

Possibilities are endless if trump gets it.

I have a feeling we will have to WFH beginning tomorrow.

It’s because of your nazi cancellation policy. If you survive the virus, you’ll be in a deposition soon and your threads here under subpoena!

I know this isn’t the pols board and I try to stay away from the topic but, fucking Trump man.

I'm still confused what is going on based on his address last night. It seems like I can travel, but maybe not?

Perhaps the stress of this whole thing finally finishes the job along the last 45 years of pounding BigMacs

He looked unwell last night.

Or unweller than usual.

He did, though I couldn’t tell whether it was cuz he was feeling sick, or just so awkward sticking to a teleprompter instead of his usual ad libbing.

But - that's exactly what it is.

And if you cause someone else' death, that's on you as well. If you are young and healthy and have insurance you likely won't die. The person you come in contact with may not be so lucky. But hey, your "freedom" is all that matters. God Bless America!

Things going to get real if Jessica joco’s wedding reception gets axed.

It really isn't worth arguing with and is why I avoid the poli-bored.
There won't be agreement on the topic so why argue about it.

I don't think the tournament should be cancelled and I think those in charge are overreacting and causing a lot of anxiety.

That's all i'll be saying about the subject directly.

[TDub]

I have a feeling we'll be WFH beginning tomorrow.

But not you right? You'll still go the office because you cant live in fear, might get hit by a bus on the way there, cant worry about it.
