We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse.

It turns out I suddenly find myself needing to know the plural of apocalypse.

I'm getting roped into even more COVID-19 stuff at work, which means I can't spend as much time I'd like being anxious and staring off into the middle distance. Maybe the distraction will be good.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

It occurred to me ... I wash my groceries when I bring them home (except the precious, precious toilet paper) and when I wake up I have mascara rings under my eyes ... am I a raccoon now?

2 April 20202: Natter dispatches from Covidia
Amy: I'm so fucking furious. I'm sitting here at home just stewing, which is not productive, but the bakery owner has yet to get back to me about the points I asked to be clarified (such as when my self-quarantine period is starting/stopping, when I will come back to work, how she's going to pay me for the work she wants done while I'm home).
She also still seems to think that me self-quarantining can somehow include coming to the bakery to pick up and drop off laundry, and pick up invoices that need to be paid, and doing the bank deposit. Which are all emphatically not a part of the definition of self-quarantining as I understand it.
And now is really not the time to be looking for another job, you know?
Matt the Bruins Fan: Amy, bakeries have really big ovens, don't they?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Jesse: I appreciated the thing going around the internet about how using whatever you currently have in the house for Passover in order to avoid a current plague should be the most kosher thing.
Jessica: Avoiding plague is very much in the spirit of the holiday.

Davids:Â Looks like Neil Gaiman and Amanda Palmer have split up and she's already leaking messy drama.
Scola:Â Apparently, she posted on her Patreon that they were broken up before she told Neil himself.
Flea:Â I mean, he could have subscribed for early access.
