    I was shopping for a light bulb and the city was very full and people didn't really keep the 2m distance that was directed but everyone wore a mask in stores. Only a limited number of people can enter stores at the same time and there often is someone outside the store that tells people when they can come in and makes sure everyone wears a mask. At the bottom there are arrows to mark the ways that you can go to avoid people running into each other. In supermarkets you have to use a shopping cart so you naturally keep distance or otherwise they don't let you in. I'm thankful that people here seem to be halfway reasonable about the situation but I feel that the discipline starts to loosen and people go shopping just for fun not just when it's necessary. The good weather doesn't really help. I compared the number of infections and deaths with the voting behaviour in my state and as it looks in more green and left oriented areas people stay safer while in more conservative/right-wing areas there are more infections and deaths. Luckily the number of new infections and deaths is falling as for now but it can change very rapidly as we have seen in other places. There is a misconception that only because things are developing into the right direction people can relax and stop being careful while the reason things are getting better is because they have been careful. It's called "prevention paradox": The prevention having the intended effect makes it seem as if the prevention can be loosened. It's psychology. Prevention paradox is a very dangerous thing

    Yes, it is the objective to develop a vaccine.

    Your music sounds like Schranz in a parallel universe where this style of music is actually good.

    These videos are the same as on his patreon, there just are more of them on his patreon. I bought the subscription. Fun stuff, without a doubt. He seems to be associated with this umbrella company: https://www.doingthingsmedia.com/partnerships, so maybe not as Indie as it seems, but fun nonetheless

    good to know! more of them is always good!

    So the videos on this channel are parodies, right? Actors, or a mixture of actors and some real nutters, right? Or do they not seem like real people to me because they in real life act out roles instead of being genuine? I can't accept this is real. This video for example:

    At first I was 100% sure it's a parody but then I read all the comments and found this Vice interview with the guy: https://www.vice.com/en_ca/article/epgjaj/all-gas-no-brakes-is-capturing-americas-weird-underbelly-on-an-rv-road-trip

    It just can't be real

    These are the fucking previews. The full documentaries are on his patreon.

    the full video puts things in a different perspective though...

    but 2 questions:

    1)why is everyone always yelling in America?

    2)are we just calling all white women Karen now? I thought it had a specific meaning as in a middle aged woman complaining to management over some trivial thing? 

    #witchhunt

    When will the burning start again?
