Cross post, the Trump maladministration’s Dept of Labor is telling individual states to withhold their exact numbers of unemployment claims until the Fed formally releases the numbers on Thursday. It’s a BS directive.
Tons of videos on You Tube, in one or two I’ve seen dementia patients with pet cats that are, I think motorized somehow. The bliss the women derive from their pets is magic.
The website is crashing in Texas, too. My sister's having a "fun" time trying to file unemployment. My friend is unable to online and they're telling her to call to file. The phone lines aren't working at all when she calls. So she's now trying to figure out what she's supposed to do.
Yes, true enough. I find him wrongheaded but not evil: he really believed the shit he believed. The whole country was in a state of chaos and panic at that point, the Bolshevik Revolution was the monster under the bed (Republicans weren't nearly as terrified about what was going on in Italy and Germany), and I think Hoover acted, frenziedly and destructively, out of principle, however misguided, and not as a mere saboteur.
He was, yes, an ass. My only point is he wasn't a vicious, unprincipled, malignant, mendacious, fascist ass.
That takes time to research and vet information, pretty much like reviewing tax returns.
Yes, the money would go out to some people that don’t really need it, but ultimately that will likely still be spent and infused into the economy, or stashed in the banks to be lent out.
It can always be recouped later when taxes are filed, just like when W gave people loans to help boost the economy.
I’m personally not overly worried about the rich getting some, they’re going to get theirs anyway, so we need to use what we have to get help to the masses.
I'm an accountant at a national firm and I have the luxury of being able to work at home.
My wife works for a small college helping faculty design online courses. She, too, has the luxury of being able to work at home.
We're both vulnerable, though. If my firm's clients start going under, or deciding they don't want to (or can't) pay our fees, the firm could very easily decide to lay me off. And now is a crucial time in college admissions, but the admissions staff at my wife's employer can't do their jobs. So what happens if there's no freshman class this fall?
We're all connected, and we're all vulnerable.
A lot of people have been laid off already, but none of us is safe. And what relative safety we have now erodes the longer the virus circulates and these isolation orders stay in place.

Yeah, with everything closed, it has to be a pretty pointless search.

I was a lurker for a long time before I started commenting, and obviously, I'm well behind in my non-commenting duties. Welcome!
Just as long as you don't miss staff meetings and contribute to the coffee fund.
Hi Daniel, how are you doing?
Nice. Welcome to the snarkparty.
Just like driving.

What a fucking nightmare.

Not bad, though a little board. Rome is weird at the moment though, with everything shut.
