Next week, I'll drive to another location in #NYState and work at that office for an undetermined period.
I think my cousin is still here in New York, but I'm probably not going to get to meet him. By his description of the area, he was working really close to where I was working, but we never saw one another.
Now I'm trying to decide whether to go to the chicken place or the Italian place for tonight's dinner. I should probably go to the chicken place. #sonOne and I can go to the Italian place tomorrow or Sunday. -

I know that Trump produced better economic !econusa results for Black and Hispanic Americans than any previous president, but I think it was mostly accidental. I don't pretend that putting him back in office would produce similar results.
I am really not used to hearing this sort of stuff at work. These last few days in #NYC could get a little rough.
And please, please, #twin_parties, let us not have a rematch of the 2016 election. Let both of those candidates go home and walk on the beach, pondering where they went wrong. -

Seeing that tomorrow is March 1st, I think I need to do that soon. Maybe tomorrow. -

I still haven't gotten to meet up with my cousin, either. I should try to arrange that before I leave #NYC to head back to #SoCal. -

He's in #CT, so I imagine it started sometime after #NYC, but before #RI. In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -

AFAIK this does not include McDonald's or Burger King. But it could also just be that no one wants to be seen eating there. In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -

Maybe next weekend, unless Mark from $EMPLOYER and his wife are able to visit #NYC. In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -

I went out briefly, but everywhere I could see had already been trampled by people walking. It did not look like it has been that thick.
I think most of #CT got more snow than New York did.In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -

That’s a little too cold 🥶. I was planning to walk down to Union Square or Washington Square and just enjoy being outside. But I will not enjoy it at that temperature, so I won’t go.

This part of #nyc is too crowded. In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -

I think this is just a cold, but there are four people coming to the building tomorrow for a training class (despite it being closed due to the recent #coronavirus outbreak in #NYC) and I'm supposed to be there.
As @bthall said when we were discussing it over Wire, it is super weird to have that exception to "the building is closed and no one is allowed on-site". But there it is.In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -

The guy at the corner is gone. The guy across from the doughnut shop is gone. Most of the street vendors are gone. Even the street testing centers are gone. The guy leaning against a pole outside the fast food place is gone.
I don't know where they've gone, but they aren't in the places where they were every day / night for three and a half months.
Maybe #NYC is doing some sort of clean up. I hope they're giving these folks some housing and access to resources (food assistance, mental health, substance abuse counseling, et cetera) and not just letting cops show up to threaten people with clubs.In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -

Apparently, it is not just local media, either. I had an hour-long call with Kenny last night, in which he mentioned the NYC long testing queues ... he's currently in #NorCal In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -

I suppose that means that #NYC's #COVID-19 outbreak has companies competing to get deep-cleaning crews into the facilities. In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -

I’m sure #NYC is having a surge of #COVID-19, because I’ve seen people waiting in excess of an hour outside a walk-in clinic / urgent care. Plus multiple street testing centers, all of which seem to be overloaded. In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink
