My life is on auto pilot until the bullshit ends.
I think autopilot is the only answer at this point.
I’ve been a little ocd with going through timelines and reading news stories. All have a political bias pointing left or right. It’s not our fault it’s yours. No it’s your fault. No, it’s WHO’s fault. No, China is to blame. No, that’s racist. No, Cuomo didn’t act fast enough. No, Trump was warned early January. No, he closed China travel. No, it came from Europe via China. And on and on.
I’ve decided mistakes were made by all, no one acted fast enough, no one saw it coming, no one knows how bad it really is, was, is going to be, could have been, or the right way out. Blame everyone or no one. Thank the people that keep things going.
Trying to use confirmed cases as a basis for any understanding is stupid unless there were test results for everyone, Im tired of hearing that statistic. Deaths can be counted but that doesn’t tell us if the person was a day, week, month or years away from dying. There are too many variables to have a real understanding. It kills some people, most it doesn’t. It seems to be easily transmitted and can overwhelm hospitals, that has been figured out.
There are people that are getting really rich off this and there are a lot more people that are getting poor. I know this suggestion sounds communistic but the people that are profiting off this should be the ones that pay for this. I’m sure amazon has been raking it in with that being the only option to buy a lot of items. I read a story this morning that NY paid some guy 68 million for ventilators and received none, that should be life in prison or the death penalty for scamming during a crisis.
I need to give up on trying to make sense of it, waste of time and energy. Totally out of my control. I’ll wear my stupid mask so I can go in the store. Maybe that might prevent something somewhere. Ill take care of my orchard and garden and chickens and boys. I’ll be happy to do work on my house and property. I’m thankful I don’t live in a city, that wouldn’t be cool.
If I post anything else about Covid or politics please tell me to go back to the snowcat section. That I’ll only look at a couple of times in a day.
Thanks for letting me throw my thoughts around
Mike
