Steph, can you try guilting him into it? "Do you really want to be responsible for getting me sick?"

I shouldn't admit this, but my first reaction (seriously) was "300 degrees OH MY GOD...wait."
Ha!
Interestingly, that is the case over here as well.
I think I like your 3 better, if its followed by a low number.
Would it be wrong to hold his presents hostage until he gets a Covid test?
Also, ha! And, yeah, Tim just go get the test. Do it.
I'm eating leftover risotto for lunch. It is so good.

Tim, get the test. I hate the test, it's no fun whatsoever, but it's also not the worst thing.

I tried guilt and he was impervious! Or I'm not very good at laying on a guilt trip.

Tell him you know someone who has NO moral qualms about hexing him with uncomfortable things, and if he wants to avoid that, go get damn tested.
(I am. here, as always, to be the threatening witchy figure for the Buffistas. Does it work? Who knows? But the offer is always open.)

If withholding the presents seems like it would work, you should totally do that.
Someone is doing some kind of roadwork outside that sounds like a giant rattling sander, and it's been running for hours. I expect it will continue all day. Definitely not slowly driving me round the bend.

NYC is closing all their schools, after having reopened them.
I'm just looking at the SFUSD Dashboard for reopening and they haven't finished ANY of the shit that they could do for a reopening.
Have small cohorts/group of students been identified for reopening? - Not finished
Are general safety measures in place, including a staff testing plan? - Nope. Why the fuck not?
Have all staff been trained? - nope. Again, why haven't they?
Are instructional learning plans in place? - etc.
I get that there's a new surge going on and even SF backed up on its safety tier. However, the district clearly isn't going to do the shit that it could do. And they said they would do everything based on the numbers, but when the transmission numbers came down they didn't open anything.
They're not transparent and they're not doing the work they could do, and they aren't following their own timeline. It's frustrating as fuck.
Especially since Matilda was just sobbing over her Algebra class in the other room because she couldn't figure out how to do a problem in a breakout room over a chat box. Which, frankly, is not how I would have done well learning math.
Not being in school is its own kind of damage.
