So much for pouring sand in the skate park

While the skateboarders at Ralphs Skate Court in San Clemente, California, were temporarily deterred by the city's attempt to enforce the state's strict social distancing measures put in place to fight the coronavirus, a group of dirt bikers was only encouraged.

Connor Ericsson, a 25-year-old content creator with Buttery Films, told CNN he saw the parks filled with sand on the news and thought it would be a good opportunity to take some dirt bikes to the park.

Video he posted to Instagram showed the bikers popping wheelies and launching off the park's jumps.

Ericsson told CNN that once they were finished riding, the group teamed up with local skateboarders to move the sand by hand. "There's major pushback," he said of the locals' feelings about the sand. "No one was happy about the sand in the park."

I had a pretty good record in my betting days.

Saw a headline that one in 6 Americans have lost their job due to Covid here

Does that seem right to you guys? I definitely have friends who’ve been laid off, but not 17% worth. Could definitely be due to the types of jobs at risk and friend group dynamics where others it’s like half of their pals got the ax

The gal I know who got dumped then laid off in a 3 day span just got her job back though, I didn’t expect to see places re-hiring already

I think its a type-of-job thing. Restaurant jobs have basically dissolved. We cut support staff by about 20%, but attorneys around here, with the exception of one firm, have mostly opted for lower pay (and hours)

It's cold and shitty out but I still think today is going to be a good day.

Too true

hmmm I feel I could write 20 paragraph post on the topic but can’t give you one single book reference of hand, sorry. I guess my knowledge comes from education, many different books that skirt around the issue, as well as certain forms of media, and even some of the varied views that come up here, from Marxism to geolibertarianism.

I will think on it though, JVS will have some good recommendations.

I didn't really. Recommended one book that was really great but I don't think quite what @Tycho Brah was looking for.

And on that last point, you gotta check out the "eggs in one basket" thread. Good lord.

I have a couple of friends in my network that were laid off. But most are still working, probably cause they work in IT or for the government.

Meanwhile, Aeroflot is taking forever to get back to us on the status of our flight and if we can get travel credit for it. God forbid you try calling them. They want you to email only, then they give some date runaround, tell you to email back, etc etc

Gotta either get some ad blockers or a plat. I dont think the site is even navigable without one or both of those.

holy fucking shit

I'm curious what percentage of the population either already agrees with this:

Part of the reason for outsourcing is that our establishment wants us and other nations to be interdependent on each other, as they removes independence from nations. Easier to control nations when they are made inderdependent.

or sees it and thinks, "hmm, sounds right."

We were having the same problem with Norwegian but we bought it through AMEX and are letting them handle it so we should get it back in Miles
