I've been thinking recently, "Why do we watch sports?"
Surely taking part in sports gives us more seratonin and is healthier?
What was the equivalent of watching sport 10,000 years ago? I'd say it was hiding behind a bush in fear whilst someone else in your community tries to fight off a lion?
From a cabal perspective, it's making us, the sheep, concentrate on a game that has no importance to one's life in reality. It's a way of making us believe that we are winning when in reality we ourselves aren't winning... and the win is of no consequence to positive change in our lives.
For years, US broadband providers have taken advantage of a lack of US competition by imposing arbitrary and expensive broadband usage caps and "overage fees." With the country facing a massive surge in videoconferencing and home learning thanks to the coronavirus epidemic, experts say it’s time for broadband providers to suspend these costly, unnecessary restrictions.
Motherboard reached out to the ten largest US broadband providers that employ caps in the United States, and only one of them was willing to go on record to discuss usage caps or their preparedness for COVID-19.
A representative at Comcast informed Motherboard that there were “lots of conversations” currently going on in regards to getting ahead of the outbreak, but wasn’t able to confirm whether a usage cap suspension would be part of the company’s playbook.

Screencap of Bern's black eye. Gotta love this guy, not well liked, not bright, done nothing in life, irritating voice, singular unevolving message and never going to be elected. All that, and he takes not one but TWO black eyes for stepping out of line.

I’m sure I’m late on this, but I mentioned a few days ago I woke up with a feeling a famous person in sports/entertainment would be diagnosed this week.
Tom Hanks fits the bill.
This #coronavirus *cannot* be stopped. It can only be slowed. Federal, state, and local officials need to SHUT DOWN EVERYTHING NOW. Close schools, offices, public transit. Ground the planes. Quarantine communities with confirmed community spread. Slow action = MORE deaths.

If enough people at the professional level, unite in their request (or demand) that POTUS 'shut everything down' will he have any choice but to comply through some type of mass quarantine or implementing Martial Law?

The media informed that five C-17A Globemasters III arrived to Incerlik AB from Ramstein Air Base and took the whole bulk of nukes out to Germany, Poland and one of the Baltic States.

I honestly don't think they have a plan to cover this type of thing. I hope I'm wrong.
Is this a joke? Democrats impeach the President without alleging a single crime, with a bipartisan coalition voting AGAINST, and now don't have the guts to actually try their case? Did they put the country through this chaos just for their own amusement? t.co...
