An ER nurse from South Dakota appeared on CNN recently
and reported that there are people in the ICU of her
hospital dying of covid-19 whose last words
are literally "This can't be happening. This isn't
real."
They
can't believe they're dying of a disease that their
leader told them, promised them, didn't exist.
Back when Mr. Obama was President the Right used to
post images of him with a bone through his nose, as
though he were some primitive witch doctor. Today the
Right is actually embracing primitive, witch-doctor
science and medicine and they've convinced their voters
of the same.
You, reading this, should count yourself fortunate
that you have arrived at this moment in time embracing
knowledge over propaganda, information over dogma,
truth over deceit, and science over ignorance. That,
evidently, is becoming a rarer commodity every day.

No U.S. Republican Senator will yet publicly admit
that Trump lost the election.
What kind of unconstitutional election fuckery are
these traitorous bastards expecting to happen?

emailed the following to my family today. Feel free to
edit and share.)
Greetings, friends and family!
I think it's very evident that this Holiday Season, due to a cursed microbe that
shall go unnamed, is going to be a bit different than previous ones as large
gatherings now have the potential for metabolic catastrophe.
I know that I, for one, will miss the seasonal monopolization of the cooking
sherry by cousin Edith and aunt Josephine and the spectacle of their subsequent
naked Klingon battles to the death on the veranda, which is their custom.
I mean, it's what Jesus would watch.
It's disappointing that we can't accumulate safely again this year
but we're all big boys and girls so we all need to stay home, stay healthy and
await future Thanksgivings and Xmases to come. And they WILL come, disastrous
climate
change
and fascist coups notwithstanding, so we need to do everything we can to make
certain
we're
there when the time comes.
So stay home and enjoy the holidays to the best of your abilities. I, personally,
will employ what's left of the US Postal Service to spread my version of good
cheer, and the occasional stray virus, to friends and fambly. Even if it's just
$2 in a cheap Xmas card I bought off eBay. You know, same-old, same-old.
If someone has a bright idea to light the seasonal darkness, like hosting a mutually
pants-less Zoom Secret Santa, then please sing out.
And, like you have to be told, wash your hands, wear your masks, and don't deep
tongue-kiss strangers.
Sincerely,
(your name here)
