It's November


of what has been globally a really shitty year but it just got marginally better *chuckling*... Hands out big boy underpants to the needy.

People want to ban me for writing.. Gosh with the cancel culture.

Where I am we're in Wave 3 coz shit head politicians decided playing backdoor coups was important during a pandemic. We'd got zero cases reported zero deaths nearly 2000 cases yesterday and a some deaths - and the genesis - ugly greedy politics.

The people have been masked following SOPs but like everywhere else once the politicians see their coffers emptying out they gotta try steal some more.

Europe is back in Lockdown, the US should have been long ago in a strict lockdown but it's the only country where masking is My Body I Decide but abortions are Govt decisions. ... Go figure the logic of that stance.

I removed and blocked a whole lot of folks who support taking away LGBTIQ rights, Women's rights, think that BLM is a joke, taking away healthcare from people who need it, giving the uber rich tax breaks and taxing people barely getting by and then have the audacity tell a POC that they find exotic and so interesting - dude if I were in your country you'd be taking my rights away. Ya know I paid nearly 10x in taxes equivalent than some clown who paid 750$

I look at this world and think - good grief where's the rest button.

As people we're so disengaged from empathy and caring - a majority have just become self centred hypocrites - and I've just slowly over the past months cuts more and more people off because they did not in anyway come across as human but rather heartless individuals.

Given the current pandemic state and becoz so many STILL insist on saying its a hoax - have the dead risen by any chance? No? Still stone cold dead then I am guessing this isn't a hoax at .

How who when where isn't the point anymore. What are you doing about it is the point.

As a single mom I'm still lucky have a job and a paycheck. I have not seen my 1st who is in the UK for a year now plans of summer together were shot coz the UK also cannot get its act together. I paid increased uni fees and she's working 2 jobs within her visa allowance to help me out with expenses whilst doing full time brown people hustle in uni and I'm worried sick as she's masked and often<b> attacked </font></b>verbally by people who think she's the problem not them. Go figure.

I think the world needs a little less selfish self-centredness and a big large dose of common sense. The year end is not going bring a miracle disappearance of this Covid 19 but if you do your part sensibly we could reign it in and control its spread a little better - but I have no real faith anyone else will do their part - in the meantime I mask and try stay clear of unnecessary exposure as a caregiver my mom and as a person who is immune challenged myself.

Take care ya'll ... I rarely pop in here anymore - too much of real life going on.

For those with a few working brain cells left - mask and keep safe- and good luck heading into 2021.

Reading your thoughtful post, I'm reminded of the Dalai Lama's comment:

I try to be kind whenever possible. And he adds: It's ALWAYS possible.

Of course you can't help feeling stressed about your daughters circumstances. Still, having been raised by you, I imagine she is capable and resourceful. May she put those strengths to constructive use.

Closing with another bit of insight from the Dalai Lama: Choose to be optimistic - it feels better.
