Spending a lot of time here lately so I wanted to see how long I've been posting about the virus
Wel, the first thing I noticed; holy shit I’ve posted more in the last month than I had previously back for years. As I scrolled thru my posts it seemed to stall at some point around a month ago and I couldn’t go back any further, but pages and page of recent posts.
The reason I started wondering is that I’ve been worried for awhile now. Even talking with people who are taking this serious I’ve felt like people were thinking I was overreacting. I guess in those cases it seemed like I was about a week ahead, as the news trickled out those that were watching would catch up to where I was a week before. But the last few days things are happening so fast I only feel a day or two ahead of most reasonable people. Each day the situation gets ratcheted up drastically. At this point I’m actually getting a little scared for myself.
At any rate, looking back thru all those posts I can see how much more time I am spending here now that I’m trying to more or less shelter in place. I’m glad this site is here, especially under the circumstances.
