I am astonished that the media are so callously using this term as a way to describe the critical cases turning up to hospitals around the world. Disgusting. “At this hospital in Italy, people are turning up in hordes with coffin fever”. Such low class journalism, already writing them off as walking dead and giving it a catchy but gruesome-
Ohhh they’re saying cough and fever.
I’m gonna sit back down now
LOL 🤣 I adore you2 -
I've gotten so bored at this point that I've started (finally) putting together all my puzzles and learning new MtG (Magic the Gathering) game styles.
Sat outside in the sunshine and read a book while the kid swam in the tiny backyard pool. It was nice. Slowly going crazy.. making food that's terrible for me (lemon cupcakes, anyone?), but not really caring.
And now I have a dry cough that hasn't gone away for two days. Slightly worrying, but it could be allergies given all the pollen coating EVERYTHING here.4 -
Getting bored...I gave into ice cream with cinnamon Frosted Flakes....I blame covid 19 bc couldn’t be my fault

I'm fine, but my neighbor ran for the hills when I opened my patio door this afternoon. His short legs & tiny feet flew straight out in front of him & he raced inside like he was on fire.
Unless he was sitting outside in the buff, since it's pretty private in the back of the bldg, I have no idea why he had such an over-reaction... especially given that he's 30' away.

I'm sure our parents said the exact same thing as we were discovering music.

..of doing what i always have i guess, but like govt sponsored. I could get used to being a good citizen. Is this what paying taxes feels like?3 -
I might try
running
outside
I’m being a little dramatic since i used to quite enjoy trail running (as much as it’s possible for a slug to enjoy cardiovascular exercise). But i did get harassed a couple of times last year and I’m sure it’s only gotten worse out there. And no, I have no one to go with.5 -

I actually recorded one instance but i hate thinking about it.
The other was *kitten* weird. Two guys in a truck getting too close to me and warning me about the dangers of going out alone7 -

Okay, yeah.... that's messed up.
I'm sorry that happened to you.
I was actually chased by a car once when I was out running.
I kept zig, zagging back across one-way streets to ditch them; it worked.
No Fun.4 -

I never run along roads. Too many perverts. Most just verbally abusive, some of them actually physically threatening. Stopped doing it years ago after a close call that scared the crap out of me. I only run on trails now. Seems like most of these nasty perverts are too lazy to leave their trucks. Too much work so they stick to harassing women on pavement. Gross.

When I was training for a triathlon a number of years ago, I was out running and this car with a couple of women in it kept circling past me. Probably 4-5 times while I was out running. Cat calls, even a few honks of the horn with whistles. Some women can be just as aggressive as men.2 -

One of my instances happened on a well-travelled hiking trail and one on a country backroad and i had to back up into the bushes/ ditch to keep a safe distance from the truck and i said things like, “I live right there. My husband is waiting for me.”
Both times were truly frightening. When I lived in the city I got stares and catcalls but this isolation makes it much more menacing. And I don’t doubt they’d consider leaving their trucks for an easy opportunity.3
