Hey bud, I understand the world has gotten worse and it's confusing and frustrating, but don't waste what time you have left holding onto so much hate. You're not going to change it, may as well seek out people/places/things that make you happy and immerse yourself in that.

Piss off, DeSantis says Florida.

More than half of Florida's students now go to schools with mask mandates, defying DeSantis
More than half of Florida's students are now enrolled in public school districts with mask mandates despite threats of sanctions from the administration of Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis, who decreed that only parents can decide whether their children wear masks. On Tuesday night, two school...

Nah, wrong state of mind in my opinion.
Focus on not getting it, because it's a crap shoot if you do.
You can survive it or you won't or you could end up like me, with permanent lung damage.
Mask up/vaccinate or essentially commit suicide.
But, if you really want to get it soon, just go spend a week or so (shouldn't take that long
) at Disney World in Orlando, Florida.That should work

It's really simple actually.
The average American, well around 80% or so I think, is undereducated and/or are just plain fucking stupid & fall for that line of shit that they have been beaten over the head with ever since their 1st breath, and that is we, the USA, are exceptional/enlightened/#1 and the rest of the World is composed of shit holes/Socialists/Communists & fools that just don't get it, that we are superior to anyone else on this Planet.
I was born here so yea, I'm officially an American so I'll use that word, although it makes me queasy.
I was fortunate enough to spend a lot of time in Ireland and visited some EU countries & I listened to what they thought about the US & Americans & mostly, nah, fuck mostly, more like all, even the Irish which is a huge shock because they loved the USA, had big problems with the States.
They are like what the fuck are you doing (I know how that emotion feels), you arrogant bastards.
Yup, we are not well liked around the Globe
Really?
Fuck yea, really.
I almost got my ass beat in a bar in Germany when this bunch I was drinking with found out I was American (last time that happened, I was pure Irish from then on
)I even got fucked with in Dublin (I couldn't fool them
) & had to convince them that I also hated Reagan & it took awile for them to be convinced.So what is to be done?
Well, I'd start with education.
The system we have in place now DOES NOT FUCKING WORK for the majority.
It's so fucking obvious it's ridiculous
Our test scores internationally suck, like really suck (just like our Healthcare)
There is too much inequity in the system, I've seen it 1st hand & my wife is a teacher and she describes the challenges she faces everyday, from getting copier paper to paperclips, but that's simply because she teaches at a school in a low income area & because of that, a weak tax base, they get jack shit.
For example, in my wife's school in Bridgeport, CT they give her room 10 computers for 30 students, they take turns.
In the next town, 15 miles away in Wilton, a wealthy area with a strong tax base each child gets their own laptop.
Do you see a problem here?
Coupled with the cost of higher education, so high that hardly anyone can afford it without going into debt for the rest of their lives, this country is fucked.
We are a nation, believe it or not, that whether it be Education or Medical or Race relations or Climate or now COVID-19/Delta (soon Lambda?) that is in deep trouble.
Like really deep trouble.
I've been political ever since JFK was shot in 1963 and Sister Teresa came into the room and told the class Kennedy was dead.
I used to watch him on TV with my father & I liked him.
Anyway I'm not going to recite every horrible thing I've witnessed happen here, there's just too fucking many, but I'll tell you what, I've never seen things so fucked up in my life.
I wish I could solely blame Trump, but I'd be kidding myself.
Trump is just a mirror of who the fuck we really are, and that sucks, bigtime

I have been my best to keep from getting it, sister has lung damage from SARS, almost lost her. But they are figuring that we all will get the Delta whether we are vaccinated or not. The benefit of being vaccinated is your immune system has a better chance of fighting it off. I would rather fight it off when I have the most resources possible with a topped up antibody contingent. Now if I really wanted to get infected I would look for the next Trump rally. Get a 'I survived a Trump rally' t-shirt while I am there. Then again, I am not allowed across the border yet, at least someone is looking after me, even if unintentionally.Nah, wrong state of mind in my opinion.

Judge rules Texas governor can't enforce mask mandate ban
Judge Tonya Parker sided with Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins on Wednesday, issuing a temporary injunction against Abbott’s ban on mask mandates, The Dallas Morning News reported.
The move will allow Jenkins’s mask order, in addition to similar policies in other local school districts, to remain in place for the time being.
Jenkins will now have the ability to issue penalties to individuals who do not comply with the county’s policy, which requires that masks are worn in businesses, schools and county-owned buildings, according to The Dallas Morning News.
Parker wrote in the ruling that Jenkins proved that Dallas County residents “will suffer probable imminent and irreparable injury through County Judge Jenkins being precluded from exercising his authority” to mandate masks in public, ABC 8 WFAA reported.
The controversy in Dallas began when Commissioner J.J. Koch filed a lawsuit against Jenkins earlier this month after being removed from a courtroom for refusing to wear a mask.
Jenkins responded by filing a lawsuit against Abbott over an executive order he signed that banned mask mandates.
The temporary injunction, however, will likely be appealed to the Fifth Court of Appeals in Dallas and then to the Texas Supreme Court, before a final ruling is made, The Dallas Morning News noted.

that is the key and you have your one vote, so make it count..going to technology was/is hard for many and it's a big step- it's not just adding seat belt mandate or letting everyone drink from the same fountain.

Word. I started off being a dick, to what I thought was just another dick, but then a different picture began to emerge. It's a sickness you see all over facebook, people wasting what's supposed to be their golden years, full of angst and anger pounding on a keyboard. Cut the cord, go fishin', have a beer/toke, watch a sunset and hug your ol' lady.
