I figured I should post something in August and I'm just about out of time for that.
So... yeah. One hundred and sixty-nine days since we were told to lockdown back in... hell, was it March?
Still a shitshow out there. Now we have huge fires in California to doubly-encourage us to wear masks. And still I see dumbasses outside not wearing them around other people. I haven't actually met a denier yet. In fairness, I'm doing my best to avoid people as a whole, so that does keep the odds down. Just found out a friend of mine came down with it. His description of it (days of fever coming, breaking, then returning) does not sound at all pleasant. I hope he pulls through. I hope his family doesn't get it.
Damn scary.
And now the election is ramping up. I have a really bad feeling about November and the fallout.
Scary times.
