Didn’t see anything posted on a couple of stories I read this evening, wanted to share

3M is going to distribute 500,000 respirators this week to NY and Seattle areas, and producing up to 35 million a month!

In the U.S., we are producing 35 million respirators per month. More than 500,000 respirators are on the way to two of the more critically impacted areas, New York and Seattle, with arrivals expected starting tomorrow. Read full statement here: https://t.co/V0mmrjSCFG 3/3

Also, Parklane Mills, in North Caroline is ramping up production of masks to get to 10 million masks per week

Charlotte Observer

After this past week, these two stories really lifted my spirits a bit

Hope you all stay safe and healthy!

Can we stop putting mass murders photos on this site?

Do we need to see each murder's picture to accompany a story about them?
I would love to see this site lead the way and not keep showing me pictures of yet another mass murderer. As I watched Rachel Maddow last night, I appreciated the fact that she had this killers face blurred out, I think that is the correct way to handle this situation we seem to face all too often.
Lets not give these horrible people any more media coverage than the facts of the story, I find the stories sad enough without having to look at the person who caused such terrible things to happen.
