@Jolly said in Shutdown:

BTW, I read someplace that for a certain period of time recently, suicides were up so much that they surpassed COVID deaths...

I hope you're not presuming that the baseline happiness index was positive prior to the shutdowns.

Also, part of the economic problem lies in businesses being completely unwilling to adapt to this year's changes. If enough people get sick and the refrigeration trucks start showing up at local hospitals, folks will take it upon themselves to stay home and backward businesses will fail anyway, no government intervention needed. This has already happened in many areas.

‘I’ is Aqua’s preferred object pronoun.

Not "them," then.

Interesting.

No, Them were a weird Irish band.

@89th said in Should've invested in Kodak:

I’d be curious if anyone bought a large number of shares last week or over the weekend.

The CEO. LOL Just read something that he bought something like 50000 shares a week or two ago. He spent USD$100,000 and it is now much much higher.

(But the article said that he has been buying shares consist over time, so this was not really unusual and they do not think anything was weird about it).

Twitter.

I’m surprised Twitter didn’t remove it for violating their decency policy. It’s the first Tweet ever that was actually decent.

Well, the frog was skinny dipping ...

You mean like a Tesla.

Larry’s ex wife could do that.

She could fart on pitch too...

Now that is a talent.

Ain't it?... there was a time or two that I caused her to hit a high A#.....

Love it!
