i love how the olympics are willing to cancel the olympics in order to help further social issues but mlb sits on their hands and acts like everything is a-ok
more like, "hey assholes, are you ok???"

In Plague Inc one of the best ways to win is by not having the Olympics cancelled.

Puni,
Does the text here explain the connection between the Tokyo Olympics and watching this live stream of a SpaceX launch?

I hope the Olympics are merely delayed and not cancelled so all of the athletes get to participate in the giant international athlete orgy that they so richly deserve.
