Selfish to the max...

Quoted from elsewhere and generally like many...

"We've been locked down long enough.  Protect the elderly and let the younger go and get passed this thing once and for all.  Covid is not a death warrant for the young!"

Well, isn't that cute.  You selfish turd!

So lets protect the elderly, those with mostly likely a third of their lives 
still ahead.  One fucking question asshat?  HOW?  There is no treatment 
other than keep 'em alive and hope, no vaccine.  And if the rate does not 
slow down maybe no hospital bed either.

The young (under 40) are not safe.  Just fewer die, isn't that great.  So no your not 
assured you will die but you may loose the lottery.

But be of good cheer you may live at home with elders or insist on visiting them 
and and if you are lucky to get it with minor effect they still are very likely to get 
it with major effect. So that means:

You get to grieve, thought not see them die, or maybe even buried.
You may get to be a orphan.
You got your inheritance, must have wanted that. Enjoy!


In the end your brought the bug home and that makes YOU responsible.
Ponder that, what you did, and its result. 

There is no "past this thing".   It has every look of the polio epidemics
where every year parents had to worry their kids would get it and maybe 
not survive it.  Even with the first vaccine  it took nearly a decade to 
slow it down to a crawl.

For the rest of us keep your powder dry and head down.  Remember, not
everyone out there has your back.

COVIDiots and the MAGAits that follow

Its all fake news:  

Its only the flu. 
Drumpf is doing a good Job...
He is not an Adderal abuser.

Really!  So my plan is simple keep distance and plan accordingly for the next few month.
Why?    By then their stupidity will have thinned the herd.

The plan is simple you go do the its only the flu thing and hit the bars and all that.  When 
you are sick you may change your mind.  Or you might just die or worse infect someone 
you love.  I suspect that will make you resent everyone that assisted your disbelief and 
denial.

In the mean time for all you covidiots and magats have fun, get sick, and hope like hell
the immunity is not fake news.   So sometime in the fall after you all have had your 
stupid moment.  I'll be around to say, told ya so.

So those not so stupid, keep your powder dry, head down, and all due precautions 
around the idiots.

Red states Blue states

Moscow Mitch suggested we should not help the states suffering from pandemic economic woes.

I have a problem with that.  Seems many have stated "hell, the the Blue states fund the Red via taxes to the fed and distributions based on census.".  Well that might even  be likely true.

However I'll stand on a different aspect.

WE as a union exist not as sovereign states but a republic created for the mutual good and defense.
That means we are united to defend any state against those that may attack it.  It was also an economic pact to insure free trade across borders, common currency for payment, and most of all laws that are generally valid from one state to another.  That pact means we support our fellow states against economic woes as well.

So Idiot Mitch its likely your state is doing as well as it is because millions of Blue Staters paid their taxes and you managed to pork up a bit extra for your self and state.


Keep your head down mask on and powder dry.

Educating Zombies...

Catchy title but the fact is you can't.  They're effectively dead.

So where do we start?

Formal education, critical  thinking subsection.  Seems there is a shortage of that.

For the so called Right... Its real stupid.  Its not a hoax.  Its a disease from a new virus and what we do or not do does not help us understand or protect.  For some not doing doesn't do much save for make its self easier to spread and for other even a smaller percentage it just kills.

That one detail is that if you get it you have likely spread it.  It may kill your kin or more likely granny or papa or your own first born.

So Education time...

Its s fucking disease.  You can get it.  if your the unluckly maybe 2-3% (likely more) you die, sucks to be you.  But hey you wander around like its nothing and it just may be you.

We cannot negotiate with a virus.
So in the end you deny, call it a hoax and lie to yourself and everyone around you.

Some questions

1) Who are you?
How much you accept others' definitions of who and what you are?

2) What do you want?
This is the question addressing one's needs, our wants, our desires. What do
we need, as compared to what we think we need?

3) Why are you here?
Do you believe that your life has a purpose? Do others think your life has a purpose?

4) Where are you going? ...
Are you doing something to edge closer to achieving that purpose or not?

5) Do you have anything worth living for?
This asks you what is important to you that is external to you and your life.

6) Whom do you  trust?
Do they have your best interests at heart? Do they have their own best interests at heart?

7) Whom do you serve?
To whom are you responsible?

Who do you trust,  and why?  Really if you trust DrumpF ,  see #5 maybe you need more self interest and be more protective of family.

Who do you serve, what every party you believe is right are you doing thing that serve their cause or by not doing aid their cause.  Think about that for a while.  There is protest and then stupidity.  For years it was the soap box, the ballot box, and then the cartridge box.  Get them mixed up and you give the wrong side fodder.  In short you not being responsible to your own cause.

I suspect some will see this as too esoteric.  But hey when shooting and killing is a thing there needs to be a good reason.

As usual keep your head down, powder dry, stay safe.
