Hey sorry Matt, I can’t go to the prom with you, there’s a coronavirus going around and I’m practicing social distancing.
Tuesday, 17-Mar-20 19:18:09 UTC from web -
Oh, you’re lonely because of the coronavirus? Suck it up.

“Social distancing” makes it sound like you’re being bullied and it’s your fault. It sounds like a nice way of referring to what women did to me in high school

"There was a line at Costco so I went out and bought a gun" is not the logic pathway of someone who should own a gun https://time.com/5804562/coronavirus-fears-gun-sales/

@adiwan Protect? I wonder how many Murikkkans are planning to be the raiders!
-
@scribus I also considered buying a gun to protect myself from suburban whites
-
@mrmattimation A legitimate concern, indeed. Much more dangerous than America switching to bidets!

Boss called me into work. Told him I was out of town. Too embarrassed to say I’m playing Dungeons and Dragons
Monday, 16-Mar-20 19:31:16 UTC from web-
@mrmattimation WAY out of town, baby!

gonna take a kiwi in someone’s salad and make a different crisis

Clarification for my previous point: The show starts out as a pretty clear allegory for racism, but as you get further into the show it becomes pretty clear that actually, it isn’t, and that’s just how you chose to interpret it, so making real life connections with real life issues become crazy uncomfortable because, yes, carnivores are inherently more violent than herbivores, and yes, rabbits papaya like rabbits, and no, none of that is true in real life.

here’s a fun game, when you watch Beastars replace every use of the word “carnivores” with “black people”, then slowly become uncomfortable with the fact that you’ve chosen to do this because doing so neatly fits the show’s narrative into a white supremacist rhetoric
Sunday, 15-Mar-20 20:19:28 UTC from web -
Beastars sure is silly

OK completely unrelated to server setup bile, but I seriously didn't feel as much like we were facing The End after 9/11 as it looks for COVID-19. Just about think there were more flights in the air, too.

@scribus I live next to IAD. Usually hear a plane flying overhead several times a day. I think I’ve seen or heard one plane in the last four days.

@mrmattimation Intra-something device.

@mrmattimation I used to travel to that area for work. It was all right.

...so, uh, there’s your insider stock trading tip.

My buddy's store did 286% normal business thanks to coronapanic yesterday.
Sunday, 15-Mar-20 00:26:56 UTC from web-
@scribus We have a store over in Langley like twenty minutes from here that did half a million dollars on Wednesday alone.
-
@mrmattimation And yet, my stocks are damn near so low they're trading on the Chinese market.
-
@scribus Possibly related, this company’s trading pretty low right now too because of internal rumors that they’re going to shutter stores for a few days while we get our inventory back together. Totally unprecedented by the way and I don’t see it happening. We only close one day a year - Christmas - and have never closed for anything else, be it inclement weather or otherwise.

I don’t know for sure yet but there’s a remote chance I was exposed to coronavirus this past week?
Friday, 13-Mar-20 17:46:38 UTC from web-
@mrmattimation Well, that means you only need to quarantine for the last half of the two weeks!
-
-
I sure am going into work six hours early. Buncha frickin’ animals
Friday, 13-Mar-20 13:45:07 UTC from web -
really a huge fan of staying an extra hour after the store closes because right now, at 12:23am, is the first time I’ve gotten a chance to sit down and do my paperwork
Friday, 13-Mar-20 04:24:00 UTC from web -
It’s not the coronavirus that kills you, it’s the literal riot that just broke out in my store when the last package of toilet paper was taken

@mrmattimation The only remaining fair distribution method is deathmatch.

oh cool, the governor just declared a state of emergency. That’s cool, I didn’t want to have an easy day at work today. Thanks Ralph.

Good lord, every subsequent day I pull up to work, the parking lot is more and more full. You don’t need to be stocking up for the end of days, people, just wash your Fluffle Puffing hands and you’ll be fine
Thursday, 12-Mar-20 19:29:40 UTC from web-
@mrmattimation But the news plays their scary music now!!

-
oh god I’m awake, what happened, what did the CDC do now, am I going to get lynched at work today
Thursday, 12-Mar-20 17:23:27 UTC from web-
@mrmattimation Well it looks like they got trump to stay on script for once, with the expression of Bart Simpson writing on the chalkboard

the whole point of Swole Foods was supposed to be that these working-class mothercherryers are still struggling to get by when the economy is supposedly at the height of prosperity, so the fact that the markets are crashing is kind of a bummer, now it just looks like a remake of The Waltons

Help, My Step-Sister Has Coronavirus and Now She’s Quarantined In My Bedroom!

we need the Bernie Can Still Win meme now more than ever
Wednesday, 11-Mar-20 16:10:55 UTC from web- Scribus likes this.

@tiff he announced today that he would stay in the race despite not having a viable way to the nomination (in 2016 he at least had a real shot until around May or June) so he himself may be perpetuating the meme
-
@mrmattimation All I really want is to see Juggernaut shove the orange guy up the old guy
-
@mrmattimation that's my boy

one of the videos I’m working on right now is different from what I normally do - it’s a video essay on open world game design. I had to get some reeeaaaaaally boring footage for a joke in it. http://rainbowdash.net/url/875461

I guess I wouldn’t be THAT surprised, Clinton had (a pair of...) problems that didn’t sit well with independent voters, but I was expecting Sanders to at get CLOSE to his 2016 vote totals. Right now it’s looking like a blowout.
Wednesday, 11-Mar-20 04:08:38 UTC from web -
Seeing tonight’s primary results: if we learn on Election Day this year that the 2016 election was a vote against Hillary Clinton specifically rather than the vote against the political establishment, I’m going to be completely astounded. Tonight’s results in Michigan, which Sanders won in 2016 but Biden is winning handily tonight, are pointing to the former.

@scribus I own one share (approx. three dollars) in some pharmaceutical company (I got it for free) so that company better be the one that creates the vaccine.
-
@mrmattimation So long as it's the same one as my dad bought stock in, lol

just a friendly reminder that if trump loses the election by ten points but still wins the state of wisconsin, which i hear only has two people in it now, he still gets re-elected
Tuesday, 10-Mar-20 00:03:29 UTC from web-
@mrmattimation So if three Blue voters move there....
