Loose joke about 28 days later
This is the news article you find in a paper on the ground in a post apocalypse video game
It reminds me of like January-February 2020.
Like, listening to the radio and every morning the news headlines are "there are now X confirmed cases and extending as far as Y, Z, and W"
And every day, X gets a little bigger, and Y, Z, and W get a little further from Wuhan, until you start to notice that it's actually getting closer to you. And then you hear about the first reported cases in your country. Et cetera...
But can you make anything out of it, or is it just there to see for backstory?
Surely you can't be serious...
Big headline on top
Little text full of lorem ipsum underneath
Alternatively it's the newspapers you can find in Arcanum where they are really in depth for no reason other than world building.
Zoom in. more. MORE!
Aha. There's a garage sale at the weird house for Tuesday. Off day for a rummage, eh?
Should I be stocking up on horse pills and toilet paper?
Get that bleach inhaler ready!
Just bleached my asshole and tanned my taint. Is that good enough?
How much it run you cause the place I use keeps shaving my asshole and I keep telling them, "I'm fine with a little bit of blond hairs, it'll be like a target!" They look at me strange and say something in a language I can't understand and shave the area. I wish they respected my wishes but I am thankful that they don't use the wax, though they use the single blade and they tell me to relax and then I tip them extra so they won't cut my asshole but they told me that asshole blood smells worse than shit so I think they don't cut my asshole because they don't want to smell stinky asshole blood but the anxiety tipping can't hurt, right? I think they shave it before they bleach it so I'll tip extra because they know I'll always tip extra in an attempt to not have my asshole cut.
sigh the things we do.
Just a bit of beef tallow!
This is how the news for corona virus started. Only to find out China had been suppressing it and it was much further along than anyone else knew.
Yeah I remember my first exposure was a post on reddit with like 3 hospital workers all in full hazmat suits rushing a bubble-covered gurney from one location to another in probably Dec of 19 and thinking that nothing good was going to come of that.
Yeah. I still like the lab escape hypothesis.
If a super virus that could kill us all escaped... you would hear about it like this.
This will be fun.
We all assumed that Raccoon City was in the US because the games were in English.
Well that and the games were specifically set in America
That's what they want you to think.
I want the full plot before I’m dead damnit.
The plot is... Greed!
Sorry, you were expecting more?
Japan had a biowarfare lab during WW2, knowing Putin I’d be more surprised of they didn’t have one.
russia had once since the early days after ww2, they are one of the few ones to have smallpox SAMPLES in thier BLS-4 LABS. they had several incidents of other pathogens being released. tularemia, Q fever, anthrax, smallpox, Yersinia, and many others.
They'd need two, one fake and one real. Like the show Lost, but not fun.
They really are desperately afraid of these midterms... New scam please? I'm all done with everything is either a scam, actual nazis or a plague.
october 5th, 2026 the day I'll never forget
Please god send an actual plague. There are too many people on the road and I'd like you to thin the herd. Especially since we know that Trump supporters were dumb enough to have coughing and spitting competitions at events like Sturgis which they held illegally while Covid was going.
I bet he died of plague.
Probably even better, they were working on anti-plague so he probably died of like super plague that can't be suppressed as easily.
