What its like in NYC

in #firstpost5 years ago

The hive community was born over the weekend, COVID19 has shut down most of the world, and NYC is a desolated place. Where is the NYC community here? i'm sure there are many of us continue to build on what we have.
It is mind blowing how fast we got to where we are today.

I managed to get the car out into the city this weekend and it was largely desolated. Today, its raining and the photos that my friends have shared with me show an absolute desolated times square. I'm personally stuck working from home, but even work has become to be rather light. Who knows what will happen next because the economy cannot be sustained in this manner. We will all eventually lose our jobs.

This is where I need to start finding creativity in the mundanes of life. I hope to find this community once again!

The gravity of the situation has not really sunk in for those of us in rural places. We are all thinking that you all are just overreacting. Next week will change everything.

hey @professorbromide!!! good to see a familiar face around. You know, it hasnt hit New York City as hard as you might imagine. People are still going out and hanging out with total disregard for the recommendation to stay in right now. Those of us who are working hard with our noses in our computers all day are doing the same, just at home. where do you live?

Im in rural Virginia. We are probably a couple weeks behind you in the virus wave. My plan is to take the first week in April off work to stay home and play with my bees. Way safer than going to work.
