    Not in this current heat wave, and I sincerely hope the postladies- and gentlemen as well as district nurses and bus / taxi / delivery drivers are keeping extremely safe, I have the utmost empathy for them right now!

    I'm only allowed outside with this sign around my neck -

    Definitely humans should be allowed outside. According to Sydney Sprouse being outside relieves stress, strengthens immunity and calms the mind.

    Not everyone should be outside though, too many racists, loudmouths and bigots around, it's just not as safe as it used to be.

    They're few and far between.

    This is one of the first benefits I noticed since I stopped watching/reading or listening to the news. The media will have you believe they are everywhere, but I talk to a LOT of people (I'm very outgoing) and it's ultra, ultra rare I encounter anyone like that.

    Sure people get a bit loud in a pub on a Friday night, but so do I 🤣

    In all seriousness, the world isn't as bad as the media wants you to believe it is.

    Unless you are a real minority, I am talking little to no intersections, your comment is but a tiny droplet in an ocean of hatred, but all good my friend, you do you. ;-)

    Eh? I'm a wheelchair user. I consider myself to be a complete minority. There's less of me than most other groups, how much more of a 'real' minority could I be???

    With an attitude like that, no wonder the world is scary to you.

    yeah, you just wear your protective face mask, would do you some good ;-)

    Awww... you're going to make me cry 😭😭

    Take a look at yourself. You're exactly the people you describe.

    May I respond with equal 'blissful' ignorance to the people currently suffering in the world, to you. Here you go! :-)

    Oh the irony. You enjoy your bubble of fear and ignorance.

    Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to cry myself to sleep over your sick burn 😭😭😭😭😭😭

    Manners cost nothing, but people without manners will be treat in kind.

    Should humans be allowed anywhere? They ruin everything! 🙄

    Please calm down people! It's just meant to be a bit of craic and Whatthe poses an interesting question.

    If people aren't allowed out, how will anyone ensure people stay in?

    Eloin and Bozo have plans to fill the skies with delivery drones and they could solve that problem. But they'd need to be heavily armed in case they saw anyone breaking the rule about being outside. They just aren't available quite yet.

    Holding everyone housebound would reduce road fatalities and skin cancer, just to mention two obvious benefits.

    Religious cults (and Freemasons etc) could "meet" online. Schools etc too.

    Medical interventions might be more subtle, until we train some robots.

    Pubs, nightclubs and festivals would all be far safer if no-one (including the artists) attended them.

    No more airplane catastrophes, which might also help reduce international terrorism. Air pollution would fall dramatically if we all stopped flying, driving, boating, etc. This could also make all those pesky UFOs easier to spot.

    All things considered yes, certainly, I think the world would be a much better place if nobody went outside. But I think the world would likely be healthier if we got rid of all the mammals including us.

    Sadly neither thing is likely to happen within my lifetime, which is kind of ironic. Good luck all

    😺

    Yes, all very true... but...

    I just won't allow someone to talk to me like that. If there's a way for me to block them, I'd love to know how.

    I certainly wouldn't want to be young now. I sometimes pity niece and nephew.

    It's reasonably likely we'll figure out solving the complications we so consistently create, and I'm sure whatever happens will be interesting.

    Together we can work things out, which is just one of the tings that make us special!

    I love being outside whenever I am able to.

    I live in a beautiful place by the seaside and I consider myself lucky to get out and enjoy it.

    People pay a lot of money to holiday here.
