He’s in the Hospital

Trump was flown to Walter Reed Hospital on Marine One tonight. I am very conflicted about this.

I don’t want him to die. Not because I’m a good person but because I want to see him spend his final years in jail for what he’s done to my country.

At the same time, I want this fascist bullshit over and that’s one way to close the door. I hope there are 208,000 or so ghosts in that hospital room with him. I hope they torment him for the rest of his evil life. I know they won’t because he’s too disgusting to be bothered by anything as human as guilt, but the idea is nice anyway.

I don’t wish him well. I wouldn’t wish any nazi well. I am very curious to see how this plays out. I’m still not 100% convinced it’s real. Every word he’s uttered since Obama took office has been a lie. Why should this be any different?

I’m just going to sit on Twitter with my confirmation bias and wait to see what’s next.

The Pandemic Special

Is it fate? Is it a coincidence?

On the same day the South Park Pandemic Special airs, the nazi in chief tests positive?

I honestly don’t wish illness on anyone, especially someone in their 70’s who is almost as out of shape as I am (no one is actually as out of shape as I am). Still… he did tell us it was going away on it’s own back in February. Maybe if he’d done something to help rather than block efforts at every turn he wouldn’t be in this mess right now. Maybe if he’d taken it seriously rather than imply that injecting bleach was the way to go he wouldn’t be in this mess right now.

Then again… I still think this is a campaign stunt. A shameless, heinous campaign stunt. Prove me wrong, fascist.

Karma Komeback 2020

The president has announced that he has tested positive for COVID-19.

He’s a pathological liar though so it’s probably some (combed over) hair brained campaign stunt. If not, it is the very definition of karmic retribution. I mean… I think it is. I’ve never studied the philosophy behind karma. I’m just going on western pop culture’s “definition” of karma. You know what I mean though, right?

Now we find out what he really thinks of that fish tank cleaner drug crap, or injecting bleach. Those things were good enough for the American people, are they good enough for him?

I’m pretty sure it’s a stunt though. He will be in front of the cameras in two weeks saying it’s not a big deal and we should vote for him because of his superior genes. Something like that.

Massachusetts is Screwing Up, Bad

I started keeping a Covid-19 stats spreadsheet back in March. I never dreamed it would still be going without an end in sight on the last day of September, but here we are. I keep one with just Massachusetts numbers and one for the entire United States.

We all know the US numbers are so bad they are evil. Literally evil. Unimaginably evil. Massachusetts was really bad too in the beginning, but after a while we straightened things out. For a while there our numbers were among the best in the country.

Not anymore.

We have had over 400 new Covid-19 cases for each of the last eight days. Today we had 532 new cases and 33 new deaths. Oh yeah, and the Governor is talking about further opening up of some sections of the state. This is absurd.

We should be better than this. Get your shit together, Mass.

I’m Tired of Quarantine

I’m sick and tired of this whole quarantine thing. It can go suck an egg.

That does not mean I’m going to start ignoring all of the Covid-19 safety precautions, I am still 100% on board. I’m just sick of it.

I miss playing in a band. I miss being on stage, seeing Jen in the crowd with a huge smile on her face. That is a great feeling. I’m missing that feeling.

That Sucked

We got flu shots today. We went to a drug store in Salem, NH. Talk about a horrible experience. We did everything right. We stayed safe. The rest of the people? Some were. Some weren’t. The putz without the mask inside. The dick having a smoke in the parking lot. What the hell.

Happy Seven Million Day

The United States is up to seven million Covid-19 cases as of today. Aren’t you proud, America? Four more years!

I’d say that I was in favor of deporting all trump voters, but where would they go? Who but a trump voter would be stupid enough to give refuge to a trump voter?

My step son’s school district has opened up sports again. Yippee! Are Covid-19 tests required? No, don’t be silly. Are masks required? For indoor events, yes. For outdoor events, yes for players on the bench but not for players on the field. Apparently, you can’t get Covid-19 by tackling someone who has Covid-19. Who knew, right?

Officials don’t have to wear masks either because, you know… whistles. I can’t remember if cheerleaders need to wear masks. Oh yeah, cheerleaders at home games. Maybe the band at a couple of games. No visiting team spectators though, and each home team player can allow four guests to watch. They have to wear masks though. Thank heavens for that, right? >whew<

Officials need to have temperature checks to be allowed on the field. Not Covid-19 tests, just temperature checks. Teams will have to have temperature checks before they leave for away games. What about home games, you ask? Apparently those are thermometer free! Hooray!

Some days I just want to take a fire hose to this whole idiotic country.

The Stir Crazy Files – Episode 61

I just realized I’ve let one of my original quarantine promises to myself fall by the wayside without even noticing.

I promised myself I would still be up out of bed and ready for the day by the time I would have had to get ready if I had to make the endless drive to Waltham. That should have been 7:30-7:45 or so. It dawned on me today as I was getting dressed at about 8:15 that I completely forgot about that rule.

Not that it was important or anything but I kinda feel like I let myself down… even though I didn’t remember I was letting myself down.

I’ll try to get up earlier tomorrow.

Eat my ass, coronavirus.

The Stir Crazy Files – Episode 60

Exercise, babie… said the very fat, morbidly obese dude. Looking over my health stats on my phone, on the Zero app, the one that tracks intermittent fasting, I have completed a full 16 hour fast for 10 days in a row. That’s 160 hours where I did not eat. Cool! On the activity app, I have close all three rings for 10 days in a row. That’s 30 minutes of exercise, at least 800 calories burned (which normal people could probably do by 7:00am without even trying. Gimme a break, I’m fat and criminally out of shape), and standing at least one minute each hour for at least 12 hours.

Having said all of that, I also canceled my gym membership today. I finally stopped hoping that the lock down would end and it would be safe to go back. It’ll save us a few bucks a month.

A few bucks a month… that’s important given that we bought an exercise bike today. Woah! Another exercise source for us that doesn’t involve leaving the house! Crazy talk! Bring it on!
