    You’re not aloud to bitch about the cold, and complain about how hot it is

    I love the cold, don't love the heat. Next week is gonna be awful.

    I don’t listen to sports radio but sounds like people are on their way out at 97.1

    I’d take 70 and blue skies all day every day. But between 90+ and below freezing, I’ve got really good gloves and a lot of wool socks.

    I thought that was odd too. Nobody was on the air. They usually have some rejects working on those days like Leach, Fithian, or Chapman

    Sounds like they are hiring more diverse people with everything going on now. The morning/afternoon/evening shows are all white people.

    We are screwed. I just went to CVS to get medicine for my wife and i was one of three people with a mask on who didn't work there. About 10 people without masks. And it isn't even just the Trumpers anymore, people of all races, ages, gender were maskless in there. We going to get locked down again, I can see it coming. Whitmer hinting at it today too

    Places like Fifth Ave that just announced two more cases of Covid today, have no business being open. The only sit down restaurants that should be open are patio services only.

    Everything else can just proceed as normal. The guy that brought up the people at CVS is just an outlier. There are going to be stupid fucks everywhere that think they don’t need a mask, but the majority are still wearing one at stores or when picking up carry out.

    In west Michigan. Hardly anyone wears masks here. Very discouraging.

    Definitely varies by locale. Where I live almost everyone is masked in the grocery & drug stores.

    I have a $50 gift card to Walmart and the closest Walmart is in Warren, I went there to get something and turned around before entering because no one had masks on there. Luckily the meijer and target in Royal Oak have been better, a few with no masks but most have it. Although i have been seeing more and more maskless people lately. Surprised how few people were wearing them at cvs today

    Most restaurants already have limits of 10 per party. Nothing really changed. And bars can remain open if they serve food.

    Got offered a job in Grand Haven, looks like I'll be switching sides of the state. I've been there quite a bit, but anyone from that area? I'll have to get some recommendations for that side of the state

    Nothing wrong with planning on offering virtual forever, imo, I'm just wondering what the point is of announcing it now.
