Itâs probably fine if he moves his stuff when youâre not there.
One bit of good news is lol Stones card room.
Get fucked
The whole idea of keeping places without a surge OPEN FOR BUSINESS and closing places with a surge is idiotic.
Like, on a macro level, thatâs exactly the reason the whole country/world is in the situation that itâs in. We keep leaving places open for community transmission, and only lock them down when thereâs a surge.
Sadly, what we need now is another nationwide lockdown, just like the one before, then to come out of it with much stricter social distancing measures. Playing whack a mole when people can move around and thereâs a 10 day lag between infections and confirmed cases is just idiocy. (So, of course, it becomes our calling card and main strategy.)

Since today is July 1st and he apparently wants to get his stuff as per your written agreement as to the end of tenancy, I donât see on what basis you can keep him from getting his stuff.
I would get him to agree to a specific 4-hour time slot to get his stuff, during which you go somewhere else. When you return, spray down surfaces and open windows, and then leave again for a few hours.
IANAL, but I doubt that you can demand that someone take a COVID test in order to collect belongings that weâre rightfully in the apartment.
No visible reward, probably. But consider this a well-intentioned reminder of the legitimate chance that you have saved othersâ lives by believing in science and staying disciplined. Many of us may still be infected by morons eventually, but minimizing how much we interface with the infection chain still reduces the R0 adjacent to us.

Speaking from personal experience that last option is simply awesome.
The solution probably involves being able to quarantine people who cross borders, whether county or state or other.
Yeah this is true, and Iâve reduced my own personal risk⌠But itâs like the people who believe in science do all the work and then before itâs safe the morons are like âYEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWW LICK A DOORKNOB YâALL!!!â and then we have to start all over. Weâre not seeing the end of that tunnel before the vaccine.
We will keep doing the smart thing, theyâll keep fucking it all up before itâs safe, rinse and repeat.
Can we calculate Sklansky lives saved by various actions?

Whatever happened to this line of thinking? I saw a couple articles about it at once and then suddenly nothing more.
Am I the only one who, upon a bit of self reflection, feels a bit ashamed for actually wanting cases and deaths to go up in red states in some dark corner of their mind?
Someone told me that sometimes it seemed like I was rooting for COVID-19, and Iâm definitely not. Except kind of in those real dumb states with real dumb people.
That has to be really, really bad, and probably says really bad things about myself. Something about how important it is that Iâm right and I knew it and saw it coming all along.
How can we avoid the whole âserves you right!â attitude? Especially since the worse it gets anywhere directly makes it worse everywhere, in a certain sense.

The thing getting completely missed in the national narrative in my opinion is that the second round of shutdowns are going to be much more catastrophic to the economy than the first ones. Lots of businesses who were holding out hope for a quick resolution and return to normal are simply going to give up and fold. And I donât think we have to speculate whether it is coming, California, Texas and Florida have all shut some stuff down again. We know that wonât be enough and so they and many other states will be forced into longer and more severe shutdowns than the first time. Maybe we wonât see the almost universal nationwide shutdown but the vast majority of states are on a pretty severe upswing at this point and will all be facing the same decisions that California is making today.
The cost of botching the March-May response to this is going to be a huge percentage of small business failures. That will result in a huge wave of unemployment which will affect every part of the economy. Iâm skeptical the government will open the checkbook and write another 5T check to try and paper over the problem again either.

No one is rooting for the virus really. We are all super frustrated with the morons at every level making this much worse than it needs to be. If you ignore science and openly are spouting provably false things that are getting people killed left and right I will not feel bad for you when you die from the same thing you said was fake.
Also I think those of us who have been calling the catastrophe from getting OPEN FOR BUSINESS are having a bit of a cathartic moment realizing that we were actually right. I know that is a big part of it for me. It has been easy to feel gaslit during this whole event and it isnât a good way to feel. So having validation for the level of seriousness with which I have taken this feels good.

If I was 100% healthy, Iâd be playing poker live in San Diego county this weekend. Somewhere. They will probably be packed with LA/Riverside/OC degen fish. Fuck you, autoimmune disease.

So what you are saying is

This proves itâs been around for years and years itâs not new.

I feel bad that I donât want it more.
Lives would be saved if COVID runs wild faster in one of these states on a timeline that allows some places to pull back and not go off the cliff together. I have no problems rooting for a red state to fill that role.
Jesus Christ, apparently one of the local moms held a graduation party under the guise of a Black Lives Matter protest as some bizarre effort to get around prohibitions of large gatherings.
