It sucks not to have a washer/dryer at home right now.

Hah, thatâs so awesome @anomalily ! Itâs the weirdest combination of infuriating and validating at the same time. I mean Iâve only been begging for accommodations since I was 12âŚbut nowâs good.
Also, I donât think anyone will take this away from this situation other than other people with chronic illness or disability. The second this is over itâll go back to being business as usual, complete with âI canât believe someone said that!â reactions and âhave you tried yoga?â suggestions. LOL.

My WILDLY OPTIMISTIC hope is suddenly weâll realize we need to make these reasonable accommodations for people with disabilities and chronic illnesses, AND in the US WEâLL realize that paid sick time is requirement, AND we will realize our health care system is a shambles.
But thatâs only when Iâm feeling optimistic.

I used my new work-from-home-all-the-time mode to justify the purchase of some very comfortable âworkâ leggings (i.e. not sweaty work out leggings) I have had my eye on this morning from poshmark.

SSO is still thinking about working all weekend with his dad who is >60 (and generally doesnât think heâs at risk) on manual labor. How do I talk them both out of it?

Boyfriendâs IT department is overwhelmed by the amount of work it apparently is to get the entire company set up for WFH when itâs generally not allowed. So, they donât have a laptop ready for him yet. So his ass is still expected at work Or Else. SIGH. He works in downtown Chicago where there has been at least 1 confirmed case. His bosses are fucking dumb.
I start permanent (for the foreseeable future) WFH tomorrow.

Holy fuck thatâs a long line! Although people seem to have a reasonable amount of âstuffâ since the carts are small, and everyone seems calm and orderly. Thank goodness for smart phones, I guess. (Also see: stereotypical Canadian politeness.

Oregon has 21 confirmed cases, but probably more realistically 250. if we keep expanding at current rate, weâre at a predicted 77,000 cases by late April. We banned public gatherings over 250 yesterday but didnât ~~ close schools ~~ even though thatâs a key fucking element.
