I'm annoyed by this. Release it all at once! Ridiculous.
Amazing how much we have adapted to the Netflix season at once mentality.

Yes, that's exactly why. >.> It has nothing to do with the PITA that it makes it to go out and, uh, "watch" it once a week.

So the president of Nicaragua just missed his first scheduled appearance in 41 days which was specifically for him to confirm that he is actually alive as the international press is pretty convinced that he died of COVID in late February. His wife is the VP and has been unable to produce him all this time.
Missing the press conference to confirm that he's alive is not the way to convince people.

Thrill seekers discover corpse at abandoned 'haunted' hotel in southwestern Japan
MIYAZAKI -- A corpse has been discovered at an abandoned hotel in this southwestern prefecture which is known online as a haunted spot, after two men entered the building as a dare.

How could they not be? Almost no one has the ability to really completely stay in.

Even those that do are still likely getting deliveries - so they could be infected by brought in goods.

Climate change: US megadrought 'already under way'
A drought, equal to the worst to have hit the western US in recorded history, is already under way, say scientists.
Researchers say the megadrought is a naturally occurring event that started in the year 2000 and is still ongoing. Climate change, though, is having a major impact with rising temperatures making the drought more severe. Some researchers are more cautious, saying that it is too early to say if the region really is seeing a true megadrought. According to the authors of this new paper, a megadrought in North America refers to a multi-decade event, that contains periods of very high severity that last longer than anything observed during the 19th or 20th centuries. -
