Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I had a chat with our CEO* when we were both in the office Monday packing up for the office move, and he isn't going to force anyone to come back to the office before we feel safe regardless of what the official corporate guidelines say.

I have found a manga for Teppy.
As expected the dipshits in Madison (Robin Vos and Scott Fitzgerald) have decided to let the counties take the lead on COVID precautions. Which means a patchwork of barely enforced rules.
And with the added perk of a state supreme court ruling against our state health administrator and the democratic governor, not to mention a powerful tavern/bar owners lobby, we are royally fucked.
The only nod to safety we are getting locally is that our city government building requires masks to enter and they passed a temporary open container statute for downtown.

Oh my god, that is AWESOME.
Joss trending on Twitter - Justice League actor saying he was awful and abusive on set. So there's that.
I saw the trending topic but I didn't want to click and find out why.
Ugh.
yeah, i saw that headline go by. Argh.
I'm so grateful Ricky Manning (XP/writer for Farscape) is a stand-up dude.
I'm WfH at least until the end of the year. And there's speculation that most of our department may never be regularly in the office again. The university is probably going to take a massive financial hit and office space in our city is expensive. I think we're being pretty effective in a WfH context and why pay for space you don't need?
I wouldn't miss my 45 minutes, each way, commute.
My school sounds like we are WFH until the end of the year, unless needed for student labs, Now that I have my work computer home, I am fine with that and will not miss my 2 hour commute on the bus!!!
I miss Nutty; I went from talking to her a couple times a week to nothing, and she pretty much withdrew from most social media that I hung out in as well (it wasn't just =me=). We're all the poorer for it, alas.
Work has picked up the pace, since more things are open, though mostly what I drive residents to are medical appointments, since doctors are now seeing patients for non-essentials, and we've started up program social events (6 people apiece, widely spaced -- but reason to socialize and interact! This is huge for some of them!)... but I'm still doing the mail delivery to each room which takes hours. At least I'm busy, and useful.
