In our house we’re doing what we usually do - get groceries every week. Although it is advised to stay at home, I don’t think the situation requires piling up food at home. It’s not the apocalypse and we’re not at war. Other than a shortage on hand sanitizers, the supermarkets are stocked like normal and we have plenty of toilet paper

Technically yes, and you should be very considerate in your shopping, but during a lockdown you would want to limit the times you go out. You shouldn't shop day for day, and it goes without saying that if you yourself are quarantined you should absolutely not go out, so some prep is truly necessary.

Also, some specialists and world leaders have already called it a "war", so.

I agree but I think it depends on where you live and how far the virus has spread. The government here is trying minimize gatherings and crowds as much as possible. Panic buying is just overkill in my opinion. The supermarkets will remain open and if you keep distance from others, wear a mask (controversial), wear gloves, use hand sanitizing gel and wipes, wash your hands frequently and immediately once you get home you can shop once a week (not daily). Also, it’s funny to see people rush to buy stuff in bulk creating a mass of crowd at a time where it’s best to avoid doing that completely.

Obviously people who are showing symptoms or think they might have contracted the virus should stay at home and contact a medical center in their area for guidance.

Nope. People are still out and about.

lol damn, my post history. If you guys are looking for an experience go read The Brothers Karamazov while high. Sorry about that.

I was going to try to start a discussion on why Game of Thrones Season 8 is easily the best season but suggesting that book is a better way of making my point. The way GRRM plays with those character types is really special. Dostoevsky also had an obvious influence on our dear Nolan and other related filmmakers so its a must. Appreciate all of the great stuff many of you introduced me to.

Welcome back and as I someone who did not hate the final season by any stretch and admired a good amount of it I’d love to hear this.

Just watched Roma, it is a damn good film, buuuut I think I should have picked better movie to watch at times like this.
