Our Glorious Leader is delaying the vital stimulus checks so they can redo them with his name on them. Guess this means they'll only be worth $600?

At least some countries have the economic side of the crisis handled

Breaking news: I have Covid-19 - probably. A nurse told me that I have all the symptoms over the phone. A high temp, a dry cough, sore lungs. All the good stuff.

The symptoms are currently mild enough so I am not worried. But if I do mysteriously stop posting in the next few weeks then I just wanted to say that I wish to be remembered for my many achievements. And when I myself work out what my achievements are I will let you know.

I am so sorry if that turns out to be the case. Just hang in there, okay? If it gets bad enough, maybe you can be hospitalized. My thoughts will be with you. Hope you turn out fine...

EDIT: How do you think you acquired it?

So you've actually experienced the symptoms or the nurse just told you you have them over the phone?

Either way, good luck. Am rooting for you.

I think, hope he will be okay. He did say mild. And as far as I can tell, he has no conditions that could accelerate the disease, like obesity, or respiratory ailments... unless he's a smoker or lives with one.

Ehn, his body has just a sympathy-sickness, so he can feel like his idol, BoJo 😋

Just an FYI, that think I posted a while back about avoiding NSAIDs for this hasn't been backed up by hard science yet.

Hang in there! Hope you feel better soon!
