watching the graduation thing on every device I have because in my mind the #s for Obama will be HUGE and make the shitty orange clown lose a bit more of his mind.

It just brings tears to my eyes to hear a real President speak. A couple nice jabs in there too.

Yeah, no. They really want me to come in for a physical and bloodwork. What the fuck. That is some kind of bullshit. They said "we schedule the physicals in office during well time only in AM so you are not around any sick type visits." I am not filled with confidence, motherfuckers.

Yeah, so do mine. Labs at the only hospital in 50 miles and then an appt at the clinic where they are known as opioid pushers. I am not consoled. I'm also apparently spontaneously going off of bcp because I didn't expect the fuckery. Who says, yeah, contraception in a pandemic is a good plan? Much less how much I want to avoid both buildings.

So I accept that it's partly genetic, and also I'm not going to go full vegan. I need cheese in my life!

There are great swings I will make for my health but I don't think totally dropping dairy is one.

I feel like it would be bad to spontaneously go off my blood pressure meds, since hypertension is a higher-risk category for covid-19. (As long as I'm taking the meds, my BP is fine and dandy, which I think means I'm not at any higher risk, because normotension doesn't cause vessel or heart damage, so I should be fine. But that means I need to keep taking them.)

I feel like in 2 weeks there's going to be a big spike in cases/hospitalizations, because restaurants and bars opened back up yesterday and people are being fucking stupid. And if there's a spike in cases, my doctor might change his mind and tell me to stay home. I fucking well hope so.

Probably, yeah.

People really don't understand what "asymptomatic transmission" means.

Oh the only med that required lab results to refill was my birth control pills. Not any of the other meds that literally need levels checked. Those she filled once. Contraception though, no way.

I'm getting labs done as early as I can because I know infection rates are going to spike. I don't feel good about it.

That's bizarre, Cass. I mean, pretty normal for our society, I guess, but in terms of making sense totally weird.

They do not and using simple explanations isn't helping. I don't know what we can do to help people understand what their actions mean.

I've become jaded enough that I don't know if it's even asymptotic transmission people don't comprehend. I think they just value themselves and their freedoms more than every other human life.

I have come to the uncharitable conclusion rather later in life that there are a lot more stupid people out there than I had thought.

Stupid, selfish, and actively cruel.
