• Day one of ISO and we’re bickering about dog leads and fucking dry cleaning. Wind it in people. The document is a grand total of two pages long.

    What will now be immediately reduced are those big groups on Broadway and Columbia rd markets and non essential shops. The guidelines regarding everything else is still essentially in the eye of the beholder.

    If you decide your work “can’t be done from home” you can still elect to travel.

    Exercise is once a day and there really aren’t any other restrictions as long as you’re with people from your own residence or you are alone.

    Of course you can walk the dog or dogs of someone who needs that help.

    It's just as important to call out if people are incorrectly negging others because they think they are flouting the guidelines because they don't have a similar set up/experience/situation as them.

    And I don't mean to single out @atz here (truly). There was a misconception, it was called out (sarcastically, by me - probably not helpful) and offense was taken to being called out/corrected (or offense to how that call out was made).

    More broadly, I am seeing people on social media lambasting those who have no choice but to open their shops or travel to work saying "why can' they just follow the rules like everyone else", and by that there is often an undertone of unrecognised privilege. I have already seen this morning (I need to delete Facebook), a cushy IT home worker sharing pictures of packed tube carriages calling all the travellers "wankers". No consideration given to who those people are, what they do or how they might be feeling having to get on that packed tube with every other fucker. They might be doctors or nurses, they could be labourers working in a hospital, they might be cleaners.

    Not quite true, we are also being asked to minimise time spent outside for all of the exceptions.

    Including exercise.
