The good news is that graph shows some countries have passed their peaks and are on a downslope, reducing daily losses.

The Finnish military cammo pattern is really effective, as seen in the photo.

The Merino wool balaclava used by the model is from Varusteleka.com, which has a lot of really cool gear. $20 USD.

Modern monetary theory. Central Banks are printing to cover exceptional gov needs.

This is basically the equivalent of minting a trillion-dollar platinum coin. It basically shows that advanced countries that borrow in their own currencies don't face financing constraints ft.com/content/664c575b-0f54-4

Just read an article about cold coffee and the preparation method, and thought you might be interested, maybe experimenting. 🙂☕️

The article is on Ars Technica - arstechnica.com/science/2020/0 and it links to a recipe, very simple, on the NY Times - cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/10

TV channels listings here : tvmucho.com/tv-channels-list/

They also have a one week Recording service - which keeps all broadcast programmes available for the week after their broadcast time. (Similar to BBC iplayer, but for only one week)

No VPN required. HD channels work well also. Love this.

Show thread

I use and recommend this service. TVmucho.com gives you access to British TV channels anywhere in the world. 37 channels in the basic package, more if you are willing to pay a bit more.

tvmucho.com

They also give free user accounts access to one hour a day of programming - for no cost. Just register and try it out. Or use it to catch the excellent BBC News reports once a day.

Basic package costs only 48 Euros on a yearly plan, that's 4 Euros per month, for quality tV delivered without glitches or piracy risks.

...And the "Mute this Conversation" control, which is supposed to put an end to Hell Threads of varying types, actually doesn't...

Argh. Off to something more productive, like raking some leaves, riding the bike a bit, etc.

Sad news but understandable. Thank you for all the hard work and the influence you brought into the US Political arena, Bernie. Progressives all owe you for advancing the agenda.

The Atlantic's article mentioned in previous post is this one:

"The Supreme Court’s Wisconsin Decision Is a Terrible Sign for November

The justices are forcing citizens to choose between voting and staying safe from the coronavirus. This fall’s election could be no different."

We can't make this up. The Supreme Court of the USA is so badly bent, it's not even funny.

The Atlantic has a fresh article discussing possible outcomes for a November pandemic election...

But their Wisconsin Republican mass-murder-at-the-ballot election coverage? Chef's kiss. The epitome of "Ha ha, only serious."
