I think I see a little turd on that guys nose his head is so far up Trumps ass. "Trump Time"?  WTF, these bastards have no shame.

Sorry everyone. I thought I was on the political thread since I had several tabs open. When I started getting negged I wondered what the hell, I made an obvious comment. I guess I deserve it for not paying attention.

Reading this thread is a lot like dropping 1,000 tabs of acid and then attempting to read James Joyce while a thousand monkeys throw spear grass at your eyeballs.

That plus being foreced to go back in time to an era where this site (and tos) was the worst of the internet.  I include myself in that sweeping generalization.

I was present when this happened.  Icon outed himself.  FB confirmed and added context a few days later.  As usual, Icon is lying.  But its not like FB helped.

This is what I get from your statement.  You know what SSS stands for and are not sharing!

Newsflash dickhead, I never had access to SSS. I know this is hard for you to comprehend because fantasy and reality are both a blur in your meth rattled head. You see, ever since I got a job and a family I haven’t posted with any of the same volume or giveafuckness since Hornfans almost 20 years ago. 

I bet thanksgiving with the parents is a blast...

super secret squirrel.  But none of the events between the brothers happened there.  Rather a chat application.  There were some nasty people that used to frequent that part of tos - present company included when i was much much less sober.

Gracias. I’m not saying I’m not an asshole (there’s a double negative for your ass Beau). But I sure as shit am not a morally reprehensible, pathological liar like that shitbag.

Well it makes sense that anyone on that shit thread should be quarantined for 14 days before they can visit any other threads.  That way we know you’re clear of the CR virus and hopefully you won’t infect everyone else.

Anyone know what the latest N. Korea coronavirus update is?  Fully recovered I'm sure!  I would think that with their lack of infrastructure, they have been hit hard!

What I take from this is that the very people most likely to be bug-fucking insane are the same people who are most likely to talk about fight club.

you have known me for 25 years HS.  When was I not bug fucking insane?

Supreme leader has been an absolute rockstar. I’d suspect maybe 2-3 deaths by now (think they’re at 1 via firing squad). And to have zero cases? He deserves some sort of Nobel peace prize recognition

Meant to post here: I work in Juvenile Probation, one of the detention officers tested positive at Gardner Betts per email this evening. Shit could get interesting for the youths there. We’ve released the low risk people already, we got the real pieces of shit here now. If it spreads, not sure what recourse they will have. Luckily I’m on the office side, but everything is compromised now.

Ok, here's the follow up I said I'd come back with... 

Chicago is staying on top of this.  Our major hospitals downtown don't have a ton of reserves with ventilators but the city overall has been great about shelter in home.  We were worried about the big rush after the St. Pat's parties on Saturday March 14th.  Orders went in place starting that Monday.  We are two weeks past that and holding up pretty well.  The big players downtown (NW/UC/UIC/Rush) really feel ready and it looks like instead of one giant peak we will get a 3-5 week period of increased needs but the capacity seems to be there.  Again, that's the current model but things could still go sideways. 

I know there's a pissing match on here between the doomsday group and those that think those people are morons.  The bottom line is if we didn't quarantine, the doomsday group would have been right.  But all of those people should be happy to be wrong.  I just hope we don't have a bunch of mouth breathers who are like 'durrrrrr, see I told you!!!'.  Be the bigger man.  And if those people are, in fact, all over the place...I could give zero fucks.  Because it's obvious at this point science is winning the war with messaging.  Now, we're not winning every battle...see some ignorant governors etc.  But the overall war is going to science. 

All the 'well go ahead and cancel everything...haha, that won't happen because economy this and that'.  Sorry, you were wrong - pretty much everything was shut down.  Look at the states with no stay at home order.  They're the who's who of dumbest motherfuckers in America...

way to go chicago

No way.  She’s of the type where it’s highly likely that one of you will recognize her and post a video link from one of your recreational sites.  And I just can’t deal with that right now.  

We seem to have completely skipped over the fact that Guadaloopy told us his niece does porn

I'm sure it's already been discussed, but I'm keeping an eye on Sweden. They have taken a pretty hands off approach so far and some think it's about to blow up in their face.

what's the werd with the hydrochloroquine/azithromycin & remesdivir stuff..   we saw something earlier this week from a new york hospital that tweeted "treating with the zpack/hcq combo on pre-pneumonia and have zero deaths when we get it to them early" etc.etc.

shouldn't we be seeing a massive drop in deaths if this stuff was working?

Short answer is it's unproven and may do more harm than good.

Spoke with a contact in Norway today. Complete lockdown there and they are a bit nervous about their neighbors. Good eye Sir.

Yep, also watching Boston. Seems like they responded.

At NW Remdesivir trials are on going on.  But you’re not guaranteed the drug if you end up there.  I’m hearing the same at other hospitals but no first hand knowledge.  
 

Hydrochloroquine/azithromycin being used too but not sure on trials.  Less hope there imo

This was always going to happen. Raising the doomsday alarm was the only way to mitigate the hospitals being overrun which in turn stopped the hospitals being overrun which makes the doomsday mockers believe they were right all along. 
 

 

Concise and to the point.  Exactly.

That's not really the arguments that I've read here the last couple of days.  It's more like some doomsdayers are still predicting doomsday and others are saying the mitigation efforts are helping...as they should or why would we be doing them?  I could have missed something though.
