Difficult conversation with my brother on Covid today.

35. Thanks LuckyLib!

A good reminder. I suppose it is pointless because even in the face of the most convincing factual evidence, he will probably never change his mind on this. I fear he has gone over to the dark side.

I told him what was true for me and that I needed to keep myself healthy and I believed the doctors and scientists. I did not care about his ersatz "facts and statistics" because I do not trust his sources. Which was most likely RW news channels. It's really too bad. He used to be such a kind, caring person. I honestly don't know what happened to him.

Anyway, very good advice and I appreciate it. I am leaning toward staying home for the holidays. It makes me sad, but I don't think it is wise for me to travel so far and spend time with so many people who do not take this virus seriously. I will find a way to make it joyous anyway, even if it just means making a contribution to a food bank or something, it's still meaningful and without all the fighting!
