Hey Everyone,

This forum was supposed to be invisible while it was being worked on.
A mistake was made and the forum was made public.

PLEASE DO NOT CREATE ANY NEW THREADS WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE GENERAL CORONAVIRUS DISCUSSION THREAD.

We will do our best to have this organized by the end of the weekend.

My sincere apologies. I know you are all working hard to try and help each other. It will be much easier as soon as we have the subforums set up.
Thank you.

 

[Tricia]

If you have suggestions on the sub forums please put them here.

Thanks

Tricia

@Tricia I suggest a complaining about the government's response to the virus thread so the complaining doesn't clog up the main threads.

Yes, please!

Thanks for the sub-forum and all that you & the moderators provide for us here.

We're waaaaay ahead with community during social distancing & physical isolation here at WS.

@Tricia Perhaps a Self-Care/Daily Gratitude/Mental Health thread? Goodness knows we all need to maintain some semblance of sanity in this nightmare...

 

[Mountain_Kat]

Perhaps an economic impact thread ? While public health is, and should be, everyone's main focus , the pandemic's effect on the economy shouldn't be ignored, imo.

I'd like to see a thread about homeschooling. I can't be the only one drowning while trying to figure this out.

We have many WSers who are teachers. I bet their guidance would be invaluable.

I'd like to second this idea.

 

[IceIce9]

How about a thread for those who are sick with presumed Coronavirus or who have been diagnosed with CV?

 

[IceIce9]

A thread with tips for keeping healthy?

Nutritious meals from the pantry when fresh groceries may be scare?

 

[Tricia]

THANK YOU, EVERYONE. THESE ARE GREAT SUGGESTIONS.

Yes, we will be able to put most of these suggestions into subforums. Hopefully, we will have most of it done by Wednesday or Thursday.

I am curious how Covid-19 impacts crime.

@Tricia - can we have a thread for how the government stimulus checks will work logistically?

I second this. I would add - what are we doing to maintain our mental health? How are we keeping ourselves busy and productive?
