Msbelle, I'd recommend waiting a while, maybe even a day or 2. The streaming has been working pretty good recenty but with Hamilton dropping the servers are going to get SA-LAMMED.

I feel like if Disney Plus's servers could handle the baby Yoda show, they can handle Hamilton.

(Although saying that probably just invoked a crash unlike anything the digital world has ever seen.)

Wow, the governor just issued a mask mandate for Texas. I admit, I'm surprised.

Wow, that's good!

Oh yeah, that's a good call.

Back in 1919 my grandfather didn't have school for a year. He was 9 years old.

Y'all need to watch the Yacht Rock TV show on YouTube: [link]

I'm not sure what I expected but it was not that.

Yeah, guess what was coming out one episode a week the last time I had serious streaming issues? And I could NEVER get it to stay up the day a new episode came out.

I'm sorry it took me this long to watch the Yacht Rock show.

The guy who plays Christopher Cross on the Yacht Rock show is Justin Roiland, best known as the voice of Lemongrab on Adventure Time, and voicing both Rick and Morty (where he's also a co-creator with Dan Harmon).

More than 40 Bay Area school principals in quarantine after in-person meeting

Ok, this is upthread a ways, but I really felt the need to ask, what in tarnation were they thinking? There's not a darned thing they'd need to be face to face for, unless they were trying to show how great face to face classes would work in the fall. In which case, behold their complete lack of success.

Oh, well. Yay Texas.

I'm gonna go smooth my soul with some Yacht rock.

Just got off book club, two of whom are Bay Area teachers. Well, one teacher and one school psych. The school psych goes back to work at the end of hte month and she has NFI how they're going to manage this.

it's going to be a shit-show.

You would think they would try to run a couple weeks of 'summer school' just so they could give these procedures a shakedown cruise with a pilot program and figure out how they actually work/could be made to work.

I still have no idea what Yacht Rock is, but I figure if I have to ask, I can't afford it.

I apparently do live under a rock, where the term Yacht Rock was never heard. But ya know, learn something new every day.

Both Brendon and I were tested for Covid in the last few days, and we are both Negative. This does not mean we are letting down our guard and will continue being anti-social, well not anti-social so much, but not as huggy and kissy as we would like. He goes to medical offices almost every day, but they are using very strict protocols. I am out more in New York because delivery isn't so much an option here, but my area is very low on the infection map. Also I have been the masked Laura for months.

When I was on the phone with one of my practice managers she paused to remind her staff to put away all their papers before they left for the day because they would be spraying again. Not only are they masked, and constantly wiping down surfaces and hands, but they fog the place too. None of the staff or doctors has tested positive, but they do have family and patients that are infected.
