The Conservative patriotic call is, Give me a Party, of give me death! (or both)

Everybody knows that Covid will be watching the half-time commercials anyway.

In Florida, we heard that there was a pandemic, but we decided not to participate.

While the last 4-5 years have opened my eyes even more than they were open, lingering effects of the Shrub years. The last 12 Months have made me realize exactly what a lost cause it is, and the reality being that there are Soooooo many that are completely Unreachable. Even SCIENCE & FACTS mean little to them.

doesn't take much for people to be people (insert eyeroll)

Like ^^ said, Im done worrying about others and their stupidity.... Im staying out of it. I hate seeing all the damn tourists up here in Tahoe constantly...ALLL fucking year they have been flocking here no matter the "stay at home orders"

They still make me mad, but It's better for my blood pressure if I just avoid them and everything else. I never knew until COVID how ok I am with being a freaking hermit.

unless you have the 2 vaccines you cant take that chance.
You still may get covid with 2 vaccines but so far no one has died thats tested positive after getting the 2.

She's a server in a restaurant-- she says she wears a mask but most customers don't. She seems kind of disgusted with people in general-- that they don't care about each other at all, but it's all about their "liberty."

I can't even imagine it. If you tried that shit here, you'd get chased out out the door with a broom.

it is one big party 24/7. The guv said he will NEVER shut anything down. State is getting redder by the minute. We just stay home and grocery shop w/double masks and try to keep ALIVE. Stay healthy you guys.
