I'm not saying people have a basic inability to assess and react to threats, but Twitter is still abuzz over a single spy balloon from China, a nation with over 260 spy satellites in orbit. Meanwhile, a mutating virus is causing economy-damaging levels of disability, and fewer seem to care. It's easier to rattle sabers at China than to #WearAMask, I guess.

Looking more and more like I left Paradise, California just in time. I left in 2013. In 2018 the entire town was destroyed by a firestorm moving at speeds up to 60 mph. Now it's just one thing after another.

Earlier this evening over on twitter, a follower put me on a tweet with nothing but @s, including me there were 21 of us. In the follow-up reply they said it wasn’t so much a follow-Friday list as a “wanted dead or alive” list

I immediately muted the tweet & didn’t even ❤️ the post.
I know people mean it as a friendly gesture but to me, being in such a LONG list of tagged accounts feels like a hostile act of notifications bombing

Every single time you think the UK has reached rock bottom under the #ToriesUnderfunding , it manages, effortlessly, to sink even lower. This is piling Pelion upon Ossa. Those poor women.

I can’t emphasize this enough. The Government is planning to rob millions of workers of their democratic right to strike, force them to work against their will, allow them to be sacked if they refuse & lying to get away with it. UK media must step up

I just jumped in to say Good Night Resisters. BTW they seem to have a cream shortage going here in Southwest Missouri. No cream or half and half at Aldi's in Springfield or Branson. Terrible.

Hey, gonna shop a bit and then head for home. Wont be online until probably tomorrow. Driving Hwy 76 through the hills tires me.
