Look, this virus isn't the end of the world, but the administration should take it seriously and stop sun-shining everything. People should take reasonable precautions, especially old ones.

I don't think removing a warning about the elderly flying is just a PR stunt. It's dangerous. They're putting people in harm's way.

Speaking of flying, I flew today, so I'm dead. Just a matter of waiting for the symptoms to start appearing.

I'm going to the Epicenter metal festival this year, and the Firefly festival this year. Wonder if they'll get canceled. SXSW did already. Coachella is being debated.

The stuff I attend to see won't be covered. It'll be a bunch of marketing bullshit.
