LOCKDOWN RUMOURS Residents thronged to food markets and grocery stores on Thursday, spooked that the city would be fully locked down. The government denied the rumours and urged the public not to panic and hoard food, according to local broadcaster TDM.
Frustration is mounting amongst residents at the government's handling of the outbreak. Some residents have had to queue for more than 20 hours to access healthcare facilities, and many are desperate to go back to work again. "There is so much anger in the community," said one casino executive who declined to be named due to company policy.

There is a seemingly endless number of streaming services, from Netflix and Amazon Prime to HBO Max and Disney Plus. And while it's more convenient than ever to watch movies, it's also become weirdly complicated. Which service is streaming which movie? Also, did we just trade our expensive TV plan for a dozen subscriptions? It can be a headache.

Vudu













Walmart's Vudu video service has been consistently expanding its ad-supported section, which lets you choose from a generous selection of Hollywood movies (mostly older titles, alas) to watch at no charge. To watch free movies online, you'll need a Vudu account, but it's free to set one up.

"Public domain" is code for "old" or "mostly black-and-white," making this the place for folks interested strictly in classic movies.

You can pregame for Imperfect Messenger by following on Twitter: Roy Wood Jr. - Ex Jedi (@roywoodjr). It's there where he's matter-of-fact, funny and a bit silly. He once did a series of shorts called The Coalition, which was a Sopranos-style show revolving around fast-food chicken sandwiches, animated by Wood. Each sandwich represented a different crime family, all of which conspired against Popeye's. It's obvious to say that Wood has a solid approach to his social media game.

Sealed buildings include the landmark Grand Lisboa hotel on Macau's bustling main peninsula.
More than 500 people were locked inside the hotel for at least five days from Tuesday after infected cases were found there.

"Social media is me, but only in my happiest and purest form. For the most part, if you go through my social media feed, I don't express anger. I don't express disappointment. I consider those emotions to be private. And so more often than not, I'm just not going to fucking talk about those things," said Wood. "For the most part, social media for me is a place to unplug."
