Coronavirus, Covid 19 Discussion and How It Has Affected Your Daily Life Chat Thread

I say they need to shut down the golf courses, it's not essential. Some businesses shock me, they are more about the money than their customers.

I don't care if golfers golf. Not everyone can go for long walks or a swim. Golf keeps older folks active and healthy here and most couples have their own cart to carry the bags. There's less risk of catching/spreading anything doing that than going to the grocery store.

It's ok, we all do it. I know I have.
As to what you said... I did want to respond but you were too fast on the fly.

As a person who posts here the onus is on me to make sure what I'm trying to say is clear. If someone misunderstands it's also also on me to try and clarify first and not be offended.
Usually things can be fixed easily that way because on a forum, without facial expressions, voice inflections, gestures (nice or rude...lol) it's easy to not get what someone says and I understand that well.

Thank you! Definitely need to work on it. And sorry for being fast like lightning!

This is definitely admirable. and I need to work on it myself.

I try not to get easily offended and am usually successful but sometimes it’s hard haha

Anyway, if we’re thinking of ways it could have been more clear, I think deleting the part in the quote about the wack priorities bit and just leaving the racism sentence may have made it a tad more clear.

I am glad you got it sorted out though and you’re right, definitely hard without tone!!

Oh, trust me...I'd love to not pay 5 times as much for GF flours...but kiddo has soooooo many allergies, some used to be fruits and veggies, and most foods are already limited so I have to utilize bready items. I do, however, bake in a much healthier fashion ...like I incorporate things such as sweet potato, pumpkin, zucchini, bananas, etc...and I use coconut oil. I'd love to use nut flours, but kiddo is allergic to nuts.
That said, I am glad my kiddo knows, and can pronounce all the vegetables one could grow in a garden and is happy to dig potatoes.

If tradional flours make you tired you could be reacting to the gluten. Many gluten free items are made with rice flours and you (general you) won't feel tired, sluggish, bloaty, or have an upset digestive system after consuming.

I seriously almost pass out after I eat any type of flour and the next day I feel so bloated and almost look pregnant from it.

The reason why I went vegan to begin with is because a lot of meats besides chicken or turkey make me throw up almost instantly. As soon as I swallow, my stomach turns.

I have the same reaction to dairy as well. My stomach gets so upset and it is very painful.

Vegetables, Rice, and fruits are really the only things that don't make me sick. I love rice noodles and I have been obsessed with them lately. It's basically the only noodles that you can find in the store right now so I am definitely all set with eating them because they are always in stock

I mean if they're golfing by themselves then that would be fine, but usually they are not golfing by themselves.

I just think that people really need to take into consideration that if we all stayed isolated, we could really do our part with this virus. People going out and doing whatever they want isn't going to help.

Oh man, that’s definitely some kind of allergy!!

I’m not sure if it’s true but I heard you can’t fish or boat or go to the beach here and also that some national parks and such throughout the country are closed which makes no sense to me because the ultimate social distancing is alone on a boat in the middle of the bay or on some hiking trail.

They probably just don’t want to pay people to operate the parks. Idk.

Also, I love rice noodles so much.

Yeah I agree!! Although I think golfing is far less of a concern than the idiots still going out and partying or hanging out with huge groups of friends, etc. At least in golfing you are out in the sun and mostly away from people even if not away from everybody. Much less risk than in a store or somebody’s house or whatever. Did you see all the idiots that still went to spring break? The beaches were soooooo crowded. I think those are the main issues.

Although. that said, older people are usually at higher risk so they should be the ones staying home and they are usually the ones golfing.

What you say is true, but we can't control other people. Maybe they are golfing with their own family members?

This is so helpful! Thanks! Although is this under special storage conditions or normal? I mostly have the paper type ones in a drawer but do have some of the foil seal type.
