Damn it Biggie, youāre trying to steal my thunder and victory away from me. 
You have to make everything so damn complicated. 
Update: Harvey Weinstein has caught the Coronavirus.
Timber! DOW Futures or overnight markets.

Well, as Karpel Tunnel never tires of pointing out, I am an asshole.
And yet Iām a bigger one than you, welcome to the club!
Neel Kashkari- "I heard from a bank in our region, a well-to-do customer came in and said āI want to withdraw $600,000 in cash.ā Now, we can supply all the cash that the banks need to meet their customerās concerns. But it just speaks to the fear and the uncertainty thatās rippling through the economy. "
āThis is literally why Central Banks exist. Weāre the lender of last resort. This is literally why Central Banks exist. If everybody gets scared at the same time and they demand their money back, thatās why the Federal Reserve is here. We will absolutely meet those demands.ā
āThatās literally what congress has told us to do. Thatās the authority they have given us, to print money and provide liquidity into the financial system. We create it electronically and we can also print it, with the Treasury Department, so you can get money out of your ATMs.ā
āWeāre far from out of ammunitionā¦your ATM is safe, your banks are safe. Thereās an infinite amount of cash at the Federal Reserve.ā

Update: Was walking around the block of my residence outside today for like ten minutes and thereās been this white hazmat van driving around town the last four days. He was parked in a grocery store parking lot for like three minutes and inside the driverās seat was a soldier dressed in uniform. Thatās not a good sign, right?
See how questions of this sort are rooted existentially in dasein? And certainly the individual answers will be.
It will be seen as a bad thing by some and a good thing by others. Or, for some, just shrugged off. And they will give you their reasons based how they see themselves out in the particular world around them.
Now, there are facts that can be ascertained regarding the use of military personnel in this crisis. But, again, our reaction to these facts are, from my frame of mind, the embodiment of āIā.
Your āIā, my āIā, his āIā her āIā? Our āweā? Their āweā?
The question here [in a philosophy venue] is what to make of this. Is there a way in which to think and to feel and to act in regard to the use of the military in this situation?
The most rational way? The only rational way? An epistemologically sound manner?
Then imagine if your own reasonably intact sense of self here was to become considerably more fractured and fragmented. Like mine.
In fact, the coronavirus outbreak is the classic object lesson for someone who thinks like me. āIā in the time distress, turbulence, uncertainty. What stays the same, what changes.
Otherwise, sure, carry on.
Update: Seen another white hazmat van smoking a cigarette on my porch and this time it isnāt the same one. It appears theyāre patrolling the area every thirty minutes at regular frequent intervals.
Nah thatās not government. They wouldnāt be rooting around a small rural community like yours (not yet, anyway). Heās probably a bad guyā¦ likely a right-winger white nationalist. They like to dress up in fatigues and shit and go driving around in company vans listening to Bob Seger while looking for jews and cops to spray coronavirus on (no shit, google it). Doubt he was antifa, mad maxist or anarchist. They tend to dress more stylishly.
I donāt think so man, they look unmarked and standard government issued. The kind of vehicles that only the government can afford. Didnāt look like no poser to me and there isnāt just one van either but instead multiple ones.
Alright hereās what you do.
If you donāt have any warrants for your arrest, you can from from them when they try to take you into custody for transport to the fema camp, without incurring any charges (resisting arrest). So you lose nothing by running, and you sure as shit donāt wanna go to a fema camp because all they do is play checkers and read old People magazines all day. If you run, and they catch you, your good (legally), and off you go. So you might as well run as a first option. And donāt worry, they wonāt shoot at you. If a neighbor saw it and got it to the news media, wellā¦ they think they got problems now? Let the country find out government is shooting at citizens who resist detention. Total chaos in less than 24 hrs. The government wouldnāt dare take that risk (not yet. not yet.)
I have a fall back position to go to if it gets that bad, kind of a hike but I know where to go.
Iām a small fish or nobody really where Iām not worried about them coming for me, at least thatās what I like to think. Iām pretty much holding up here lying low under the radar, I rarely venture outside.
