On Friday morning, Gov. Andrew “Big Man on Campus” Cuomo gave a largely-ceremonial thumbs up to New York’s schools, as the state has maintained a 1% positivity rate of coronavirus infection. (Tests must remain below 5% for at least two weeks in order for schools to remain open.) But it will be up to Mayor Bill “Big In Only the Literal Sense” DeBlasio to determine if, when, and how these schools will reopen.

The only voice of reason we listen to is America’s top dad blogger, Drew Magary. Drew, what are you doing with your kids?
