Okay, I'm back. Had to pick up meds from the pharmacy. Thanked them for being there. Found stuff Mrs. Toomush needed at the grocery store (and TP!). Thanked the checkout girl for being there. Stopped at my broker's (they would only let me stand in the doorway) to say I was grateful his office was on the first floor. It felt a little like one of those weird sci-fi movies where things are very different after the aliens arrive...

I hope it doesn’t wipe out most of Europe or anywhere else.

“working” is quite a stretch for whatever the hell she’s doing.

Odd. I was just thinking that the country would be collectively stronger and freer if we could only - somehow - lose the baggage of people who aren't willing to carry their own weight, or make life better for their neighbors.

Primatologists say "one monkey is no monkey". That is, monkeys are only understood as members of a society. They have not evolved as lone organisms. Each has a role to play, by foraging, fighting, and playing together. A chimp or bonobo who does not fulfill these roles is a dangerous burden on chimp society.

A wealthy libertarian who is unwilling to help their neighbor isn't a "success" no matter how rich they are; they're a failed monkey.
