I’m currently on holidays

Just received a call from my boss to head into work tomorrow to see if we have to close

Victoria is shutting non essential things in 48 hours

Shit is starting to hit the fan here

Stlouis is doing same but “ Essential” business can stay open. Which includes auto repair and construction.

Hang in there, bud!

We’re on day 3 of the shelter-in-place order here in California , and thankfully, society has managed to not collapse yet. Keep yourself and you family safe, best wishes!

After seeing the homeless camps outside and REI in north ern California five years ago, I thou gh t society there had already collapsed. Guess they have a ways to go.

Sure, let’s not pretend that California doesn’t have major, glaring issues. But there’s also a lot more to the state than a lot of people realize if they have never been or never spent any appreciable amount of time here.

I know I certainly had a very different picture of it in my mind before I moved here sight unseen almost nine years ago.

Fingers crossed we are deemed essential but I’m not holding my breath

My seven and nine year old daughters have probably spent more time exploring California than anyone who moved there nine years ago. I’ve been exploring your state going on thirty years but would never consider moving there. Beautiful land that’s been ruined by people.

I work in a supermarket, were deemed essential, understandably.

I had a look online at all the supermarkets. Every home shopping slot is booked until mid April and that’s only because they stop at mid April presently.

Stay safe out there.

It is.

And yet people don’t really seem to be getting the message. The wisdom that I’ve seen boils down to “practice self-quarantine as best  you can, or we’ll soon be like Italy and the government will force it on you”. But it seems people are out and about as per normal, and so of course it’s getting worse.
