Social media is making things worse. I worry that education re logic is severely lacking and that people are not being taught how to think critically. If grievances are not addressed, violence will result-so says most studies. I give you the Patriots at the Boston massacre and the Boston tea party who revolted, mostly, over a tax... It can provoke good social outcomes IF the issues aren't otherwise addressed.

I dislike the lesser of two evils voting suggestion. Thank you, but evil is evil. As John Adams said:

"There is nothing I dread So much, as a Division of the Republick into two great Parties, each arranged under its Leader, and concerting Measures in opposition to each other. This, in my humble Apprehension is to be dreaded as the greatest political Evil, under our Constitution."

Puerto Rico just had its first COVID-19 patient treated with plasma, and it was successful!

I wonder if anyone is tracking those who recover and requesting plasma donations for CP therapy?

She sat in sunlight on the deck
feeling the sun on her bare legs
wishing she could bring herself
to let his hands warm them instead.

Frustrated that the Press keeps wondering why the President doesn't order a federal stay-at-home order. 🤦‍♂️ Maybe because he can't... They SHOULD know better.

Interesting...

I am still surprised how many people think Internet=WWW. 🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️

I just think of fediverse as interconnected BBSs. 😁 Yes, that shows my age...

Chuckle-worthy...

Me too, but 🤷‍♂️

I am surprised there is little discussion about Universal Basic Income during this crises.
