asia got their s*** together fast. they were voluntarily quarantining and dropping out of social events. meanwhile americans are going to mardi gras and s***.

They've been through these things before, have infrastructure in place and know how to deal with it. We never rally have. Not surprised nobody's taking it serious enough.

What do you expect ? A whole generation brought up to think their entitled and to put themselves first are.. Thinking only of themselves :oblivious: Remember when it was only a "senior citizen" threat and idiots still went spring breaking and partying.. Now its effecting everyone and people still cant do the simple thing of staying home

You still think Glass is a good movie?

I think its one of the best films of the 2010s so yup

if we had better math education then more people would understand the danger of the virus

Fauci under attack now? this is beyond lack of maths

mostly if we had political leaders that actually decided to prepare for this pandemic rather than call it a liberal hoax for a month, we would not have let this become as bad as it is right now

I think America could really benefit from an IQ test that is required for your ability to vote honestly

couldn't that be said for basically every country considering its a global pandemic ? Nobody was actually prepared for this.

No because most countries have not let this become nearly as much a s***show as us. Germany is the 5th most affected country yet only has 200 deaths. South Korea and China (despite being the source of the virus) have essentially resolved the issue in their countries. India has barely let it affect them and they are still deciding to go on lockdown out of general caution.

Its mainly Spain, Italy, UK that are having issues and even then its not even close to as bad as we have let it become. We have nearly 25% of all cases singlehandedly which speaks volumes about how godawful this current administration is as well as just how terrible our health care is. We constantly belittle China about how they lie about numbers and are corrupt, but we are 10 times worse with us underreporting cases and deaths as well as testing the least of any country in the world and our leader lying to the entire world about how we test more than countries like South Korea. There are second world countries who would never let their health care workers work in trash bags and have them booted out of their homes. Trump is a f***ing joke and the fact he's prioritized corporations over working class people in the midst of this is shameful.

Every country is playing a numbers game broski, whether its reported or not is to be seen and is up to you to believe :mm:

As for the working class is this where you say Hillary would have their best interests ?

I’m not gonna say Hillary’s interests would lie in the working class but I know for a fact Hillary’s team would not have had a finger up their ass for a whole month like the GOP did and they’d actually take immediate action in passing these programs for paid leave, remote working, and financial support all around much earlier

If you haven't started working on ur list wtf r u doing.

@Aruji I was looking through your list to see what might interest me and thought Fire! Orchestra was a cool name for a band and holy s*** i only did part 1 but this is amazing. In bed starting p2 rn

@drjdeponytail

"U took a cheap flight to California ha ? Cause of that Rona ha? Now you feel like you got pneumonia ha ?"

Fire! and Fire! Orchestra are great.. I guess the only difference is one has an orchestra :mystery:

Oh f*** @Aruji this second half is so much more jarring the female vocalist who takes control sounds like a more maniacal, female version of Tim Buckley with how versatile she is vocally. Going from cackling highs to grating shrieks to intense and beautiful shouts yeesh this was a journey

The way she holds those notes that go back and forth with the shift tones sounds straight out of Starsailor or Lorca

still going in
