Austin on Lockdown until December

Good question. If you're employed and your job is considered "critical" come and go as you please with social distancing and mask requirement. If you're retired - get over here n' wash my truck! If the job is non-critical spozed to stay at home. How the hell anyone is supposed to confirm/verify and never been explained. My oldest son is an investigator at a Federal Prison in Virgina - he's critical. My youngest son builds rockets at SpaceX - he's critical. My daughter drives for a Amazon Logistics company - she's critical. I'm in construction - I'm critical. You're guess is good as mine!

Is that the state order or Harris county? I know that was the order once upon a time but I didn't think that was still what we were supposed to be operating under. Shows how much I've been paying attention. We've been doing this crap for 5 months. It feels like 5 years.

Not going out anyway. Definitely not going to Austin. Order has no impact on me. F¥@& Austin.

I wonder if Elon Musk is having second thoughts about Austin. Isn't that why he left commiefornia?

That’s what it was the last time I heard any definition of “lock down”

Elon don’t care he got his deal, his people will be “critical” should they need to be... Austin gets real agreeable when you start shoveling cash at them.

Pssh Austin lockdown, I've been going every weekend since restaurants opened back up. Gotta get that Tex-Mex! And others...I'm young but been going to a couple restaurants for 20 years (since I was a kid) and be damned if I stop now.

I can wear a mask for 30 secs if "required". Don't know why the hell they dropped speed limits 5-10 mph in and around the city though. If it wasn't for the food/memories and music I would just stay the F away.

I stopped. Food isn’t ever *really* that good, and you never know what sort of skags are cooking it. It’s been great to get back in touch with our favorites at home. Healthier too. Less salt and fat in our diets.
