Crypto may be a good choice as well, depending on which one, something grassroot like hive may be a good one since it offers an actual service and this last fiasco with steem solidified it's value as an

Haha, no but that sounds pretty funny. they just removed some tables or just took them out of service. All the cashiers everywhere have a plexi barrier. All servers have to wear a mask & gloves and

Crazy world we live in! I don't like it every day but I still gotta have it. Yum they don't know what they are missing.
