Ginx snewx Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Canada yo. Follow that science they say.... In mid-April a new pandemic lockdown by the provincial government was announced, giving police temporary power to stop individuals to ask where they’re going and where they live. “The Stay-at-Home order currently in effect requires everyone to remain at home except for specified purposes, such as going to the grocery store or pharmacy, accessing health care services [including getting vaccinated], for outdoor exercise, or for work that cannot be done remotely,” a government statement says. The Ontario government proceeded to close all outdoor recreational amenities including basketball courts, soccer fields, playgrounds and, yes, golf courses.

Virtual land lol Michael Burry , the investor in the movie “the big short “ who bet first on the housing demise in 2008 -09 has this to say about NFT’s "NFTs exist so that the crypto grifters can have a new kind of magic bean to sell for actual money, and pretend they're not selling magic beans." NFT’s are in so many different areas ...that I would bet some will have value but many seem silly (Particularly virtual real estate , which is selling for hundreds of thousands ... they appear tied to Ethereum which looks to me to be One of the few potential future payment systems used online $$ For virtual real estate , I was reading how you can take out a virtual mortgage (real money ) and work with a lender on the one hand some folks have bought plots of land for a few grand , developed them (sort of using programs like 7 year olds have mastered in Mine craft) and some “investor “ digs it and come around and buys it for 100K in real money lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was part of the vibe I was guessing at While others I sense see the profit opportunity and are trying their best to position this as a future legitimate growth opportunity that you simply don’t understand yet and some money is pouring in . Some of these dorks will be moving into large estates. With all the Easy money and low rates the Fed reserve seems intent on maintaining this creates a environment for things like this to flourish . Yes , it has that gamer introvert odd vibe , Some parts are likely pure bubble but I think parts of it will be for real .

weatherwiz Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Well pretty much all better today. Actually felt nearly 100% by yesterday evening outside of just being tired but I did sleep pretty well. In terms of the side effects it was pretty much everything I expected based on the information I gathered from folks. Side effects kicking in about 12-hours later with side effects lasting around 12-hours and a full-day of fatigue. I am very glad I asked as many people as possible what they experienced after getting their second shot because I think preparing myself made going through it that much easier. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhitinsvilleWX Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Welp. I have to report that I saw 95-98% outdoor mask wearing down Mass Ave from Huntington Ave in Boston, to Sidney Street in Cambridge. And the little bit of Huntington I was on from the Pru to Mass Ave, same deal. I'll go that way again tomorrow when the mandate is actually lifted and see if there is any change. I think I know the answer already. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
