Divorce lawyers. There are going to be a lot of married couples who will have to spend an unprecedented amount of time with each other and will figure out that they don’t like like their spouse.
I might have just realized why the Senate doesn’t want to vote. Grunching, so sorry if someone else already posted this.
We know officially that Ted Cruz, Rick Scott, Lindsey Graham are self-isolating. Are they doing so in DC or at home? It’s possible there are others that haven’t announced it publicly. It’s possible that if they allow a vote, there will be more Democratic senators present than Republicans. Even just without those three it’s 50-47, and two defectors swings the vote. Someone like Gardner in CO who is desperate to shake up his race could go moderate and vote with Democrats.
Crazy to think about what could happen as time goes on. There could be votes in the Senate with like 90 senators present and voting.

I feel more than a little cognitive dissonance when I think about this. It’s a moment of absurd empathy.
Why is it absurd empathy? Because the way we feel about coronavirus is how Fox viewers felt about the caravan. Because the way we were like “LOL stop freaking out about imaginary threats” is how they feel about every medical expert across the country saying this is a catastrophic pandemic.
3.5 40+ men’s here and I’m not shaking anybody’s hand regardless. A month before our season I haven’t heard if they’ve stopped the winter indoor season yet.
