"And they whileaway the hoursIn their ivory towers,'Til they're covered-up with flowersIn the back of a black limousine.

Didn't have to stop and think. The older one gets, the more naturally the thoughts occur, basically as memory/experience/deja-vu/intuition/flash- backs meld into a general gut-feeling emotion, reinforced with reliable information, that train of thought that steers belief. Coupled with true, humanistic friends, and like-minded family, your spirit, like in my days of youth, will somehow find its way through this wonderful, once-in-a-lifetime experience, with all the dangers, horrors, nightmares and injustices to be conquered.

Head up, eyes and ears open, chin out and heart strong!

Gah, I’m so fucking sick of people who obviously don’t have mental illness or know anything about it or give a shit about anyone who has it bringing up “mental health” as an excuse to disregard public health measures. I have depression. It’s not remotely like having a sad because of not getting to go to the bar or salon or whatever, and I’m not anyone’s human shield from guilt over doing things they clearly know are unsafe.

Our governor has done the same thing in MN. Honestly it seems like it’s just to be able to say we’re doing something without putting every restaurant in the state out of business. The really depressing thing is a whole lot of them are going to end up going out of business anyway.

People complain about California, but tell me where we can find a coastline this good.

I would guess it'd be tricky to gain access to his throat with those fat, orange ass cheeks in the way.

It pisses me off too. It's disgusting, but it is in-line with the behaviors of Trump supporters.

LOL this is a good point, and dumb on so many levels. They clearly didn't actually understand the point of V for Vendetta either.

Cruel or vicious are just terms that people can identify with. But yes, nature just is, and without a human-based value system. My point is that people spend a lot of time investing in the idea that they are always in control, and at the top of that system. They like to believe they exist outside their own environment. And, they are easily distracted by this delusion. The harsh reality of nature’s capacity to be unforgiving if we are not cooperative can only be avoided for so long. This pandemic is one of those events where people might find themselves redefining what they think ‘humanity’ actually means, and why.

You have to be alive to enjoy the blessings of Liberty, as in "Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." These clowns don't understand that.
