You don’t exactly have the best grip on reality
I spent a lifetime not going on cruises because I don't want to watch the ocean from a 7 foot tall ledge at the closest. You don't scuba dive. You don't interact with the ocean. You are basically in a floating hotel for a few days. You can go nowhere but to eat or the pool or to your room.
Finally though after a lifetime of being talked into it I almost went. Last month. I finally said "fuck it I am doing it. Why not?" I went to schedule the cruise. It was closed. Because of the pandemic. This is a 100% true story. Can you imagine if I had gone? And got stuck at sea for 30 days while they quarantined the bitch? Imagine if I had tried just 7 days earlier. And gone. And gotten stuck. Imagine the luck of that mistake. Best mistake I ever made to wait until it was impossible.
On the other hand they have these super pricy $500 a day small super yacht cruises for like 4 days its 2 grand. They have total 150 passengers and literally they stop constantly and anchor and allow people to jump off the back and scuba dive and swim etc. I bet the prices for those when they finally open back will be knocked way down.
Can you imagine 2 grand for 4 days? Talk about EXPENSIVE. Maybe now the rates will be like less then $1000 for the 4 days like between $500 - $750. Still SUPER pricy but wow what a trip I imagine.
if they open back up that is

We need to do MORE TESTING.
I didn’t post that, but yeah they key tongaving a functioning economy during the pandemic is widespread surveillance testing and case tracing.
This was trump yesterday
Quote:
REPORTER: How can the administration discuss the possibility of reopening the country when the administration does not have an adequate nationwide testing system for this virus? Don't you need a nationwide testing system for the virus before you reopen?
TRUMP: "No."
He says it would be nice to have but not necessary.

The best thing everyone can do is take it seriously but be rational and calm, stress is not the greatest thing for the immune system. The only time I get stressed about any of this is when I check this thread or the news, which I still do for some reason

Trumps response to this is an ongoing crisis. I’m not going to ignore it.
Its pretty bad either way. Its like he can't make up his mind. He has no decision to open back up yet no decision to lock down completely.
Ok so restaurants are open for pick up and delivery and fast food is open for drive through etc. What is the point of that? You are hurting their chances of making enough money to pay budget. 30 orders a day is not going to break even with the restaurants budget. The partial lockdown will just allow more of the disease to spread. So basically this is just going to drag out and lose more money.
If they had locked down completely this might have been contained better and things would have been opened sooner. This partial lockdown garbage is just losing cash for everyone and is only half assing everything so the results of containment will be partial at best.
Also Trump keeps changing his mind. He said two months ago "Corona virus will go away when the weather gets better. Ride it out like always." Then later he says "some people just want to ride like. Ride it like a cowboy. Ride it. Just ride it on through." He is totally full of shit.
Then he creates this $2 trillion stimulus and immediately starts blocking who can get it or not and starts firing people. He is a nut. He is no help at all. One foot in and one foot out. Its like he does not care and is just playing a game to piss off the media. I hate hearing him speak. I hate hearing Dr Fauci stand up next to him every day and speak. Dr Fauci has had his back the whole time. He is just as heartless about this. What a mess the government has created.

Why the f are u surprised you couldnt get a ticket when it was a cruise ship that seeded the country.
all yall who thought trump might 'do infrastructure'... that requires reshaping cities around sustainability. Keeping things the way trump or biden would like is only benefiting the gilded class that they suck off whenever the cameras are gone. Biden is based out of delaware which is only known for war and no taxes and unlimited interest rates. He suggested jamie dimon to be in his cabinet. And trump is a pigeonholed retard who doesnt know how to make money but his whole life is based on it.

Cruises are absolutely terrible. I have no idea why anyone would want to take one. SIR, however, thinks people who take cruises should just be left to die.

Very true. Stress damages the immune system greatly. For those who are not stressed and can exercise with distance I recommend it. It lowers blood pressure. Strengthens the immune system. Relieves stress. It has how I have been surviving this and not having a heart attack. I almost feel I have been more active during this then ever before. I have been trying to work 5 part time jobs and drive around and walk miles a day etc.
Honestly if I sit around and think and hang out with people panicking I am going to blow my head off or have a heart attack from high blood pressure. Most beaches and paths near me are completely locked down but I still find a way to walk a great distance greatly and it very much helps me state of mind. Living around a bunch of paranoid panicking people looting toilet paper and freaking out non stop and showing no true empathy for those who are hurt except as a way to bump up their Facebook status is making me hate life. Its making me suicidal.
I take the same risks as everyone else interacting with just a few people a day even with masks and gloves even with extreme disparate social interactions with great distance I know being around just a few people could risk me being very sick. I am not the type that does well sitting around thinking though. Not at all. I have to preserve my mind and not get depressed or anxious. I feel like I am babysitting a bunch of children with the negative people in my city acting like their negativity is somehow proactive.
People are hurt. I get it. People are sick. I get it. People are dying. I get it. But help out and do something or get out of the fucking way and shut up. I mean cmon. Empathy is not reached through means of cruelty. Compassion is not reached by selfish self preservation. I feel for your wife man. I really do. She is here to help. Everyone else that complains and is not a not a nurse should just go to hell and STFU imho

The UK is really paying for their late start to social distancing. Really goes to show how leadership makes a big difference in results.
They now have a CFR of 12.7%

Like, we get it. Trump is a stupid asshole. I'm not attacking you, but your state of mental health is concerning to me.
Yeah the obsession level is through the stratosphere. There's a lot of people like him though. I'm not exaggerating when I say that I think a lot of people think about him literally every waking second of the day. I mean fuck Trump should be paying full time rent for the space he occupies in some people's heads. I think Trump Derangement Syndrome is a real thing 100%.
To each their own though and I guess if people want to spend their days angry and yelling at their tv and thinking all day about some guy who doesn't even know they exist then more power to them
I think I'll pass on that lifestyle personally though

I'm with you feevers and morrow. Some others as well. This whole thing is just very surreal. I feel very lucky to be where I am and to have the people around me that I do, my mate especially. to all of you!
I took a cruise ONCE! I was so fucking sick the whole time it was moving to Cozumel and back to Galveston. I'll NEVER do it again, no desire or need. Got a pretty neat black coral bracelet from Mexico. The only plus to that trip. Then the very next week or 2 that very same ship I was on was the one that stalled in the gulf and people were shitting in plastic bags and the engine failed etc...I dodged that bullet! Some people I knew in Dallas were on that boat and when they finally got back they sued the hell out of them. This was back in 2013. Carnival cruise. Found it https://www.cnn.com/2013/02/11/travel/cruise-ship-fire/index.html
I also had this really bad feeling of doom and what if it stalls out here the whole way back, and I was super fucking sick and couldn't sleep, it was a real nightmare! I get dizzy sick too. Found out that people who get sick when they spin, get sick on ships.
