Neutral

I try not to get political here.  This is a spot for me to tell my story not to preach my ideas.  There are a lot of people in my state (Michigan) suffering. In fact all my friends have been either laid off or given some sort of pay cut.  I am very lucky.  I may come through this without lasting affects.

There are people on Facebook, so I hear I do not have an account, that are protesting our governor for shutting the state down so tight.  These people are obviously spending to much time on Facebook and not enough time noticing that Michigan has the third highest number of cases.This virus is killing the old and weak.  Unfortunately it is not picking on the selfish or stupid.

I tried fixing the inner tube on my exercise bike but it is still leaking slowly.  I can get an hour workout before it needs to be refilled.  I ordered a new inner tube from Amazon.  It should be here by the weekend.

I could get used to working from home if it wasn't for the isolation.  That has given me something to think about.  My next carrier change will need to be with a company with more flexible policies.

  1. Exactly my thoughts. This virus certainly hasn't made the world less stupid. It's odd every time I have to go out here in Detroit area.

    1. Good to see you still here Roth. I see a lot of people still driving around. I am not sure if they are essential or just too bored to sit still.

    1. My governor seems to be acting like a leader and doing the best she can. She looks professional that is all I ask.

  3. I have dumb and dumber reppin' Texas, Abbot and Dan Patrick, and they can fuck off to hell. A lot of other Texans are wanting to reopen, however, they haven't called for a statewide shutdown and let mayors and county judges decide on a city/county basis. Rural Texas (trump base) is not "shut down" which is annoying. I'm really frustrated with the lack of leadership overall regarding this, and I'm not watching the news because I get too anxious. But getting federal "preferential treatment" based on if your governor was "nice" to 45 makes me want to riot.

    1. Yep. I also think there is some Cambridge Alantica style inciting of the rank and file on Facebook going on. People still don't realize they are pawns.
