Idle Banter For non SV and non bike related chat (and the odd bit of humour - but if any post isn't suitable it'll get deleted real quick).
There's also a "U" rating so please respect this. Newbies can also say "hello" here too.

Default 2020 so far

World wide plague
World economy collapse/mass unemployment
America still being run by a lunatic.
India and China skirmishing in Himalayas (with deaths)
China threatening Japan over islands in South China Sea
Fighting in Libya (Russia, Egypt, Turkey, Qatar, UAE all involved on one side or other)
ISIS regrouping.
China imposing new security laws on Hong Kong (US threatening sanctions)
CO2 still hitting record levels despite worldwide lockdown (413.33 ppm)
Australia under cyber attack for last 7-10 days (assumed to be China)

...and now this:

I'm thinking that 2020 may not be one of the better years.

Remember when everyone thought 2016 was the worst year in living memory? We're not even halfway through 2020 yet.

Maybe I picked a bad time to try and become optimistic?
