You can watch a rocket launch live here right now: #SpaceX
Launch went well; keep watching to see if the first stage sticks the landing
Well, they’ve gone quiet about that first stage (maybe not a great sign) but the Starlink satellite deployment seems to be going as planned so far
Ah, yeah, first stage lost. It had a good run (four previous launches!)

We’re KEEPING our DISTANCE
We’re all QUARANTINED
We stay alone (ALL ALONE), for our friends in their time of NEED
Because WHO’s racing, and pacing, to flatten the curve
Docs fighting, and guiding, and keeping up their nerve
We’re keeping our distance
(Aaaa, ahhh)

Please do not spread “alternative treatments” (like supposed homeopathic remedies) for COVID-19.

You might be tempted to say “it can’t hurt,” but passing these things around causes harm. People might delay real treatments, distrust doctors, or react to unknown ingredients.
If you’re looking for medical advice, I recommend your doctor, the CDC, WHO, etc.

(FWIW I acknowledge I am also not a good source of medical advice! But I do know the dangers of pseudoscience and misinformation in times of crisis.)

And readable...
“And...and go where?”

“Florida I guess? Isn’t that where you go to die?”

Hank refrained from turning that into a joke, but he still fully expected Connor to get his feathers ruffled.

Instead, the living room went quiet outside of the tv
playing in the background, and Hank turned himself away from petting Sumo to look at him curiously.

Connor’s temple was red, which he kind of anticipated seeing as how close they’d become. But the look he was giving Hank was...upsetting.
