Communication and relationship need to take center stage during this crisis.
Don't text your Parents, kids and friends,,,call them. The voice of a loved one is reassuring and encouraging. Since we can't be with all the ones we are concerned about, lets make sure and visit by phone as much as possible.
Since time immemorial, pot smoking has been a communal activity. Sitting on the grass, Bogarting a joint, being an herb hog — those behaviors were all frowned upon.
But today, when picking up germs from the tip of a joint or vape pen can leave you infected with the coronavirus , health-conscious potheads find themselves rethinking weed etiquette.
On a recent night downtown, Melissa Vitale, an avid and highly functional stoner, tokes away at one of the dozen joints she carries inside a silver cigarette case.
“We’re all making adjustments,” the 27-year-old publicist from Brooklyn tells The Post.
For instance, she advises putting the more vulnerable first: “People with compromised immune systems or without insurance will take the initial hit [of weed] before sharing with others,” she says.
In fact, Vitale, who works with the cannabis-positive clubhouse NSFW , has thought it through beyond that. “These days,” she says, “I’ll light a joint, take four to 10 hits and pass it. Then I light my own joint, which I hang onto. That way I am not getting anyone’s germs.”
It’s almost like she’s paying a kind of pothead health tax: For every five joints she lights, she gives away one-and-a-half in order to avoid the contagion. As for puffing joints that have been lit by others and passed to her, Vitale carries around a gold joint-tip. “It’s like a small cigarette holder,” she says. “I can insert the joint into it and have a clean tip.”
2.5 million new jobless claims this last week and the DJIA is now lower than it was when trump took office. The deficit over a trillion a year, debt has increased by 4 trillion since trump took office.
No, you prefer a pathological liar who is also a narcissist who is psychologically incapable of caring about other people. That is so much more preferable during the time of a national health crisis that can kill people.
Trump is not fit for office. The sad part is you know that but still try and ruin his opponents. Biden will be a far better president that Trump.
Trump KNEW that coronavirus was going to come to the US and kill many people. But he downplayed it for weeks, because he was afraid the truth would hurt his political chances. He more belongs in prison than he belongs in the white house.

Trump "knew".
Gee, after the last 3 plus years of telling us all that Trump don't know shit, suddenly you change your tune?
I suppose instead of instituting travel bans, Trump could have gone on tv and got everyone all panicked.
So the Spanish flu should be called the Kansas flu? First case was there. Otherwise, why is Trump MAKING UP a name? Its called Covid-19 or Coronavirus. Nobody but Trump and his toads are calling it Chinese. Because its all over the world now.
Ground Zero in one of the world’s deadliest influenza pandemics started quietly, inconspicuously.
It was winter, 100 years ago. And it was here, in Kansas.
The virus began on the windswept Kansas prairie, where dirt-poor farm families struggled to do daily chores — slopping pigs, feeding cattle, horses, and chickens, living in primitive, cramped, uninsulated quarters.

And it’s now ok to bogart that joint.
Too true!

Trump will be remembered as the president that's so full of shit, the country ran out of toilet paper.
I am sure there are some short-sighted people who will feel that way.
Short-sighted or simple minded? After watching some of these people, I think it's the latter.
It could very well be both.
Or you could be completely wrong [deleted]
[Ever think that?]
True.
The bastard ran the economy out of workers, too - and that part was all his fault.
Yea, wash your hands.
2.5 million new jobless claims this last week and the DJIA is now lower than it was when trump took office. The deficit over a trillion a year, debt has increased by 4 trillion since trump took office.
Sure, great economy. /s
So that's where Mario Diaz (R) got it..

complete nonsense

The Obama’s Admin two step ...... pleading the 5th .....
Anyone who thinks there is an equality in judgement between saying Trump is a moron and saying Obama is a moron has problems with, well, judgement.

Good plan.

Opinions on that do vary.
Folks who would use this pandemic to help push their preferred political narrative are the epitome of misplaced self absorbed ignorance.
Sad, very sad.
Good on celebs who are trying to help and not hurt.
