[OFF TOPIC] Coronavirus Pandemic


Recommended Posts

according to highway Police yesterday at the start of "holidays" there were more than a million cars (to be accurate 1,112,000) on the roads between cities. 50% decrease comparing to the same time last year but still that's huge :facepalm: which means something like 3 or 4 millions had traveled in one day.:mad:

 

yayyy . long live Corona

The Danish parliament is set to vote (laws set in place to help the during the situation). However they can only be 7 at a time in the chamber meaning quite a bit of queueing outside the chamber (luckily most understand the distance)

Things changed very quickly in past few weeks. I think two months ago nobody expected us to be in this situation right now, I was reading some news, interviews and reactions from February and this one caught my attention :d  this is from 31 January.

Are you people going to work?

 

Until the organization where I go to decided to close the exam center where I work, yes (which they did two days ago). I had my second 'interview' for a new - my first real - potential job today (first a three month try-out basically, both for them and for me to see if we're a good fit) and much like last week's first one, that went very well - nice, calm, friendly, positive conversation.

 

They still have to work, because it's a big psychological care institute basically, and psychological patiens don't just think "oh, coronavirus, let's not need care for a while". No idea when I'll start yet :p

Only today in Chile we had 132 new cases, we are in complete isolation and with militars on street and controlling the government. I think we are in a awful situation right now.

    • One has already been approved under the new rules. 
    • There is a transgender volleyball player here in Brazil; there was even a recent controversy (this year) when a city banned her from playing in a certain competition, which ended up in court, ultimately in her favor.   But the situation is much simpler than that; the reason for this decision is because of the two female boxers who won at Paris 2024 (who apparently are not transgender).

    • there were rumors about it for quite a while, but as I wrote, it was never confirmed so, it might well be just some haters throwing out some shit on her 🤷
    • Where did you get that?   I'm not sure I would have considered her to have dissapeared from out of nowhere, at least since after Tokyo... she did win medals at the next two World Championships. I think it's just recently, she's been struggling with injury which is why she's completely out of form... 
    • Even though I'm not the biggest fan of her, always sucks to see a career ending through injury and not on your own terms 
    • This is going to have an effect on very likely 0 athletes, possibly 1 or 2 we don't really know about yet. It's really mostly the cheapest possible way for them to make a sort of political statement, without having any significant backlash since it won't really affect anyone at the top level of international sports.   Edit: worded a bit wrong, I was thrown off by everywhere 'trans women' being mentioned as the target of this. Of course there is also the somewhat larger category of DSD and the likes, which will certainly affect a few athletes - unfortunately they are often thrown under the bus or mentioned as 'not really women anyway' or something like that, despite, you know, being.
