How's Covid Enforcement in Your Area?
I live in Sacramento. Lockdown is still pretty tight here, but not as bad as the Bay Area.
Spent the last few days in Reno and Tahoe. What a difference! Indoor dining without masks. Most people in stores and on the street were not wearing masks. Some casinos were open. However they were loosely enforcing social distancing by limiting table games to three players.
I talked to some guys at one of the casinos who had just driven in from Montana. They said there was no lockdown at all there. I dont know where they went though.

As far as masks, I was told upon entering both that masks are required when not drinking. That didn’t seem to be followed or enforced very much though.

No that's not true. States like Arizona and Texas are experiencing large increases in hospitalizations and ICU cases. Arizona's ICU is at 80% capacity and Texas set three straight days of hospitalization records. We're not done with the first wave of deaths.
And the problem is not lack of masks at the recent protests -- at least not yet. The issue is that some states lifted stay-at-home orders too soon:

A month ago @Dugan sited a WSJ article stating that deaths were expected to plateau at about 61K and therefore not much different than the flu. Total deaths are about twice that now (116K) and there's no end in sight.
In my local area, the downtown strip clubs are open. Way too soon for me. The local gym is open again and we have special rules where we can reserve swimming lanes. But it's an indoor pool and I've chosen to wait. My wife's company is paying for antibody testing and she had her tests this week. Mine is scheduled in July. The antibody tests don't tell you much about immunity, but I figure it's better than nothing.
Surprised you would have a negative opinion like that. Having to sit table side and give big puppy dog eyes to customers in the hope of a tip for conversation seems like a System wet dream.
Biggest change this week is outdoor dining and in store shopping have resumed in many places in the Bay Area. No movie theaters or salons yet though.
I actually have never used a real mask and just repurpose a balaclava as sort of a mock turtneck/mask when needed to avoid trouble.
That's always the double edged sword of recession mongering. In the early days it's wonderful being there when their hopes are dashed and they have immediate cash infusion needs. But if it goes on too long, eventually a lot of them give up and seek out their next best options. A hot young woman can always find a job somewhere, even in a recession. In this instance, their hopes are being dashed right away when they learn that they can't sell the contact that makes them their money.
I just meant what I said because the no dance thing incentivizes more girls to sit table side for extended periods of time. (Since there’s not much else to do) Which means more individuals who take the time to listen to your pitch.
The best targets, hot ass and drug free girls who absolutely need to go home with a certain amount of income, are forced to re-adjust more quickly when earnings dry up.
