Fact: I am back, it's Pandemia.
HELLO !!! It has been YEARS since I have blogged. I went through a few years in Shit River thinking it was a creek and it got bigger. Seems to be drying up finally, thank God ! I need to record my thoughts during this moment in time, a year after the Pandemic started.
So much has happened in that time. But here we are the times of Covid. What a wild time to be alive. I mean, its not the Black Death, or Spanish Flu, or worse, but damn; it really sucks.
People are seriously divided. Heaven forbid you claim to be a liberal or a democrat, you may just get killed for that alone. Politics are fightin' words. Presidents are not who they used to be.
We wear masks, or we don't....because it violates our rights constitutionally, we fight about this big time.We sanitize the shit out of everything! Almost every company is now making its own sanitizer, germs are scared and humans are straight petrified.
We don't hug or handshake, fist bump or head nod is the new go to. Guns are still on the table, mass shooting psychos vs patriots afraid to lose an AR to the Man.
Obvi, mental health is still not a priority. SHOCKER. This one bugs me a lot, Ive been pretty depressed for some time and its so hard to get help, therapy is expensive and not many are covered by insurances. I honestly pray for some relief and changes for the mental health system to get people the help that they need, it would really benefit the masses.
There is a vaccine now for the Covid, we also fight about this. It was quickly rolled out and the facts about long term effects are a little shaky. A few folks have died after getting it, not enough though for anyone to panic sadly, every single human should have value but they just dont. Some outlets are talking vaccine passports or digital 'papers' to prove, this all feels very non-freedomish tbh.Many people have gotten it and are feelin fine. Kudos, heres to Herd Immunity!!
Some 2.9 million souls have died worldwide as of today. We fight about this too. Some say the numbers are skewed to show as 'Covid deaths" when they arent. All I know is 2.9 million people have actually passed away and as a society we should be more compassionate.
A LOT of us work from home now and it was quick. So many jobs said it couldnt be done and look at us go a year in, more productive, less expensive. We will see what happens with that in the future.
A LOT of folks lost their jobs and businesses. This is a scary one too, livelyhoods have been smashed. Crooks abound have taken loans and help they didnt need. Talk about a shitshow.
Something about BLM and Antifa. I dont get these. Black lives matter seemed to have gotten hijacked and Antifa is a fake fascist militia I think but I still dont understand it. All I know is blacks have been treated poorly since 1619 and some shit needs to change. Cops kill humans of all colors but more being black per capita. I honestly feel they shouldnt shoot to kill unless it's the absolute only choice. The badge does not give the right to take a life, but thats me. This fight is a big one amongst everyone, in my own family even. We have to not talk about ANY of it to remain civil family members, though some relationships have been severed sadly. So shhhhhhhhhh.
