What a weird list. Very specific in some spots (don't get busted throwing around a EUROPEAN mini football!) and very vague in others (athletics).

Disappointing hunting and fishing aren't on there

I don't see what the problem with hunting or fishing could be regarding the spread of SARS-CoV-2. You can still do it while socially distancing from others. And it's outdoors. Do hunting and fishing fall under athletics?

CDFW, at least as of a few weeks ago, had on their Q&A page that hunting and fishing are not prohibited. However, they cancelled the Eastern Sierra fishing openers to protect the small communities up there.

Not to get too political, but I wouldn’t expect the state to endorse fishing, and especially not hunting, in their extremely specific list of “allowed activities” (a particularly galling concept in itself).

When they say yoga, I hope they mean outdoor yoga and not Vinyassa flow in a heated room packed full of people sweating their asses off.

Instead of making a list of allowed activities, they would have been better served to make a list of not allowed or criteria for allowed activities.

Producing a list was never going to be comprehensive.

From the sfgate story:

All of these activities are allowed as long as they're done only with members of your household and if you maintain a distance of six feet from others.

They put out a list like that and expect to be taken seriously? It’s so stupid on so many levels.

From the sfgate story:
That's a poorly written sentence, it's somewhat ambiguous. I think they meant, 'if you maintain a distance of six feet from other people outside of your family'.

No surprise, I don't know wtf they teach journalists anymore, my grandmother who was one of the first female journalists in NYC is surely spinning in her grave over what has happened to the profession.

someon1 explain why washing car is now allowed

how the fuck was that banned before???????

:laughing

My only take would be they were all classified as the same.
Some get in your car and drive it which would cause more exposure than hitting a few buttons at a self serve.

All I got man.

There's no good reason an automated car wash can't safely operate. Especially the kind where the owner stays in the car and no other human touches it. But even any car wash should fall under essential vehicle maintenance, IMO. Some people don't have the means or space to wash their own car.

No jiu jitsu for me in the foreseeable future.

I supported them for the first couple months and didn't cancel my membership but I can't justify $150 a month when the gym is closed with no end in sight.

They haven't started any distance practices. I know it's not the same. But my oldest daughter does Farang Hapkido. They started doing distance classes, I think through Zoom. At least it's something. She doesn't want to quit, so I'm gonna keep paying for the time being. No idea how long that will last. I think we got a notice from the studio about getting some discounted months.

My gym is doing the same through zoom. They have virtual classes everyday still.

Some of the drills and movements are useful. I tried the first couple weeks but it's just not the same. This is a 2 person activity.

Virtual trainings for karate I've been doing with the Machida brothers are a different story. Much more we can do on our own.

Good on your oldest for stickin with it during this weird time!
