gollark: The UK is apparently considering shutting down schools. I'm not sure whether it's sensible or not, but it'll definitely be problematic for me.
gollark: It does seem like the governments responding to this have two states: completely ignoring the problem and wildly implementing over-the-top restrictions too late.

gollark: Which would be fun and interesting!
