It's a luxury compared to how I grew up...brianlux said:mrussel1 said:
Well if people get the luxury of riding a public bus to work, school, grocery store, then why can't I get smashed in a bar 5 days a week. It makes no sense.tbergs said:
Well, public transit is kind of an essential service and it appears there is it least a mask mandate. Even so, you can't compare people packed in bars and sitting in restaurants maskless noshing on food for an hour to someone riding a bus with a mask on for what, 15 minutes on average? You can see the difference, right?23scidoo said:So, bars and restaurants are close for five months, caush are high level risk,right??..
But not here yeah??..haha..

Riding public transit is a luxury? Whoa! Man, where you live? I wanna be there!

I think there's some sarcasm there (i.e., travel to work is more important that clubbling), but for some people it is at least a perk. I live right on the Green Line light rail transit (LRT) line in St. Paul, MN and my wife and I have one car. I love(d) it. I never drove to Twins games, work, etc. Now I haven't been on it for a year. It's a loss.

Here's some comic relief on the topic. The Nuge' is upset that we're locking down for Covid-19 but didn't lock down for the previous 18.

a guy at my work, who has since gone all Q on his conspiracy theories about the motivation for lockdowns (the government is preparing us for a future pandemic that they know is coming and will be catastrophic in nature), also said this. I had to correct him that it was the damn year, not how many fucking covids there have been.Ledbetterman10 said:

Covid-19 is the worst, but sometimes I think people downplay how awful Covid-6 and Covid-11 were. Covid-8 was so mild, I'm not sure it should have been a Covid.

2 health orders from your province over the weekend suspended non essential surgery and increase permissions to move hospital patients to other spaces that have resources remaining. 27% of ON schools have cases, considered variants, which spread to entire families with young patients getting sicker in greater amounts, requiring more resources. I am wondering what your announcement in a few minutes will be, too, but I could wager a bet if I was a gambling woman.Meltdown99 said:Ontario is considering moving all school boards to online learning and introducing a curfew?
These are the days of our lives in Ontario...we have a fat ass premier running this province like a reality show. They can not not just get their act together...
Don’t come to Ontario if you do not have to.
just to be clear, there is no need for online learning in most of the province, or is there a need for a curfew...just in the hotspots. I am not in a hotspot...
but Toronto is the centre of the universe, so we all have to suffer in fucking lockdown....GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER TORONTO!!!I was swimming in the Great Barrier Reef

I think Kellyanne Conway made a similar statement some time last year as well. In her case I figured it was intentional to try and minimize things while knowing full well the meaning of the name. Right out of the DJT Covid playbook.Ledbetterman10 said:

Nuge on the other hand I think was either ill informed or just too dumb to know the reason the name is Covid-19.This weekend we rock Portland0 -

Thanks for reminding me to book a trail ride before that gets the axe! Gather thee roses while thee may... were taking a scalpel approach to keeping business open by only shutting down those with 3+ cases. For now
