It just gets crazier by the day -- in other news, some republican states that have been following Trump's lead and refusing to do really anything at all, have imposed mask mandates today; Alabama - mask now required with very right wing governor stating "We’re almost to the point where our...

Also announced today that LA and San Diego schools will not return to in-classroom learning when they reopen next month, which is also a very good step

Thank **** for that, was hoping it was coming. Too many people that just don't give a shit to let people make choices for themselves! The recent surge numbers are very, very bad here and I don't even think we've got to the post July 4th holiday surge (/extra surge?) yet...

Could be touch and go there - its a total mess unfortunately. We've barely left the house since early March, aside from solo dog walking/driving I've been to the supermarket twice and that's about it. The republican governors are just too scared to go against Trump - there's a White House...
