1. Headline to come:

May 4th, Georgia Covid cases spike!

[octoberlib]

2. Restaurants and theaters are allowed to reopen Monday

and he said that counties and cities can't be more or less restrictive. He said that social distancing will have to be practiced . How do barbers and beauticians socially distance themselves? WTF.

3. There is a fungus

There is a fungus that gets into the brain of an ant and then controls the ant to get it to climb up a blade of grass and just freeze so that the fungus can grow up and out of it and then go to spore, if I recall correctly.

Hypothesis: There are asymptomatic carriers in whom COVID-19 has gotten into their brains and is doing the same thing, controlling their minds to assure its own spread. They therefore feel compelled to protest, congregate, avoid preventive measures, open states, etc. In a sense, the become a form of Corona Zombie, doing its bidding.

It's just a hypothesis

24. similar...

Toxiplasmosis infects mice and controls them to run toward cats because the fungus reproduces in cat intestine.

6. 😳🤯

Who the hell wants a hairdresser breathing over their head?

Same thing in Memphis. Hair & nail salons will be the first to reopen, supposedly because of "numerous requests." From whom, I wonder? Death wish folks?

I guess superficiality & pretentiousness still reign supreme.

7. And , of course , churches

MORE: Churches will be allowed to resume in-person services, but asked to maintain social distancing. Hospitals will be able to resume elective medical procedures that had been put off during the response to the pandemic.

9. But only if your stylist has six-foot arms!

Same for masseurs, manicurists, etc.

[Leghorn21]

14. Not a problem, Ilsa...once again, China leads the way

[Ilsa]

19. Bwaaaahahahaha! nt Thanks.

[dalton99a]

21. +1

[Ilsa]

10. I wonder how Kemp is going to feel about

doing that when nobody shows up for those services.

[morillon]

11. Boycott the motherfuckers

Any hair salon or spa or nail shop who risks its employees' lives this way deserves a boycott.

These places need word of mouth, and it's gonna be SHIT if they put their people through this.

[sunonmars]

12. So basically, all the places with exhaustive breathing splutter and close proximity work

May as well order the coffins now.

[ffr]

13. The preppers need a break and a pedicure

[eppur_se_muova]

15. Love it ! Spread it around more. nt

[llmart]

25. Oh, that's a good one!

This should be seen all over the place.

[eppur_se_muova]

16. "C'MON IN AND GET DIED !!" nt

[Leghorn21]

22. Yeah, se! "CURL UP AND DIE"!!

[Brainfodder]

17. What if most of the workers refuse to show up?

It's beyond obvious this is way too soon!!!!!

Stupid customers is one thing.

[Progressive Jones]

18. Karen will be pleased, but she would still like to see the manager... nt

[cwydro]

20. Unbelievable.

I dread the fallout from this stupidity.

[cojoel]

23. but where can I go to get my poodle clipped in Burbank? n/t

[llmart]

26. Because nothing says essential services...

like tattoo shops.

[npk]

27. Well he only ordered the stay at home order like two weeks ago

So he was never taking it seriously here to begin with. Guess residents like me will have to hope that the citizens will enforce their own stay at home order amid the utter stupidity of our governor and state officials.

[Texaswitchy]

28. One giant hotspot.

Texas has a stupid Republican governor also.


Two weeks and watch out.
