I love @Stormy 's thread about happy songs and my old thread about your favorite music. I wanted to propose a variation, as I have been shocked by the beauty of Miley Cyrus' I wish you were here. Please, share those songs that make you emotional. I am not talking about sadness, but about some kind of deep connection, about those songs that inspire existential tears. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zUYo8xQf4PY

I think he is doing the right thing. Pushing for the quarantine to stay for as long as possible, even if he may be risking his political capital. Please, do not take my testimony as advocacy against physical isolation. I am rather sharing how I am experiencing the dilemma we all are going through. By venting here, I also hope I will be releasing stress and buying motivation to keep going longer than I think I am able to.

I do not know, my friend.

I think no one is proposing a lock down until we have a vaccine. The talk is about not being back to normal until the vaccine is found, which is not the same. Although the lock down is the most effective prevention against the spread of the virus, it is just not sustainable beyond a couple of months. Besides not being economically sustainable, it is psychologically impossible. We are going for the 7th week of lock down in DC, and I do not think I can go much longer. Consider I am supportive of quarantines and physical distancing (I am going for my 8th week of abstinence), I live comfortably and with full connectivity, I have a job, and still despite my privileged situation and my friendliness I cannot put out anymore with the isolation.

I am not surprised at the willingness to take a risk. I am myself going through my 8th week of abstinence and I am afraid that will not resist much longer. What is astonishing is the stupidity of the reasoning.

Quite solid evidence of under reporting: U.S. deaths soared in early weeks of pandemic, far exceeding number attributed to covid-19

Back to topic, any experiences with this guy? I am not sure whether or not he is the right one to break my abstinence, but after 8 weeks of heroic resistance, I am planning my surrendering.

Thank you for your very interesting contribution. Anyone has any information actually useful?

Bump. Apparently he is now residing in DC, and his ad is up in Rentmen. Any experiences around here?

So in your OP post you were just plagiarizing?
