Hey everyone it's Ben. I'm still alive and am sorry for the lack of updates and content lately. It's been a rather rough few months and this was before everything went down with Covid-19. I wanted to give a quick update here and wish you all the very best during these trying times. It's very important that you continue to isolate and avoid going out as much as possible. It's very scary to see that some states here in the USA are ready to re-open when the pandemic is far from over. Everyday I check Facebook and twitter and see people losing loved ones. Please stay at home and away from other people. If you feel like you are overreacting or that this is a waste of your time, good! Maybe your homemade mask won’t stop tiny viruses from coming in, but they will capture most of what you’re breathing out which could potentially contain viruses you don’t even know you’re carrying; you may not even get symptoms. Maybe you think this silly quarantine has gone on long enough because you personally haven’t lost anyone. This pandemic is not being taken seriously by a lot of people and it's sad that it will take a tragedy for some to open their eyes and see that this is very real and needs to be a top priority. It's super shitty that the United States has the highest rate of infection and it could have been much better if people weren't so damn stubborn. FB is great to keep track of those you're worried about but it is historically not the best place for news. I encourage you to seek as much information as you can from many sources, especially international sources. BBC will report on the virus without any American biases. My heart goes out to all of those affected and have lost those dear to them. Listeners, I may not know who you are, but I do care for your well being. Take care of yourself, stay safe, and keep creating. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/obscureterminus/support
