    I have 3 of 4 kids still living at home, all 16 or older. 

    I'm lucky that mine are all 10 and under.  We can put their shit on lock without an overwhelming amount of bitching and moaning.  They can be easily distracted with a day trip to pedernales falls or the like. Fuck me if we were dumping a bunch of teenager hormones into this shit.

    Well, the AIDS crisis was god's punishment for those fags, so there was nothing to learn from that except don't be a fag.  At least that's what I was taught in my family when the AIDS crisis started making headlines.

    Thanksgiving must be a real fucking blast.

    JOHNSON CITY, Texas (Gray News) – Police in central Texas say they have reason to believe methamphetamine in Blanco County may be contaminated with the coronavirus and should be checked.

    The offer comes in a public service announcement posted by the Johnson City Police Department to Facebook.

    “If you have meth with you, please get it tested prior to use,” the post says, offering addresses where people can take their drugs for testing.

    “If you prefer to keep your meth in the privacy of your own home you may contact Blanco County Dispatch … and have an officer come to your house to test your meth for contamination."

  4. In Travis county we were relatively good with mask wearing and social distancing. I think every thing needs to be analyzed regionally as no regions are exactly alike. The time frame of the spike we are seeing in cases as well as the lag to hospitalization are in range to be tied back to mass gatherings corresponding with the protests. There are reports from SC and LA and DC linking transmission to protests. I think it’s political bias that leads one to dismiss the potential impact of mass gathering in the tens of thousands in ATX before the data are all in.

  5. I don't want to jinx it, but Travis County cases came back into something that could be considered relatively controlled today. If we stick around here, 6/18-6/21 look like outlier readings. ATX made a big push to have protesters get tested whether or not they had symptoms.  That four day bump is right where you would expect it to be if it was related to either the protests directly, or an indirect result of the city making a push for testing. Might be able to tease out the secular trend of re-opening vs. an acute spike related to testing around protests just by eye balling it/

    Cool, thanks for sharing.  Yeah, we're balancing the fact that yes, any movement increases risk, but goddamned, our mental health.....so, going a route that keeps risk low, but allows us to have a week off, and be together outside, is something we're really leaning towards doing.

    Yeah. I get it. We made these reservations back in Jan.
