Curious as to how Austin is faring.
Swimmingly.
Spent some time there as a musician back in the day and am glad to hear it. No SXSW this year.

Well apparently that's what Trump is hoping for-- he's planning a YUGE convention-- in person, not on Zoom! And he wants it big and crowded!

The Texas stay at home order ended April 30th. Massive protests in Texas occurred two weeks ago....
Well, if that's the case (that the protests are the cause), and New York has the fewest New Cases in the nation-- why has New York had so few protests?
New York had over 800 new cases yesterday they are one of the states with the most new cases. In comparison Wyoming only has a little over one thousand total cases. Ny has almost as many new cases in one day as Wyoming has had total cases.
