Our wings are not tired.
One of my office managers lost 2 nurses to self-quarantine today because of close contact to Covid positive relatives. She has been so stressed that my SIL and I were treating her tonight to dinner by me and mani/pedi by SIL. She was in tears when we told her we were kidnapping her for a treat. Now she had to cancel because she has to self-quarantine due to the contact with her staff. She is working, but alone in her office. Then home to isolate (again) from her elderly mother and her boyfriend, who live with her. The stress level for medical workers is off the charts.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I think SCOTUS is trying to give Trump a bigotry aneurysm this week.

I saw that a man on a plane who refused to wear a mask was put off the flight. He's a Trump supporter ... on his way to Tulsa.

Theo - take to using roommate's favorite coffee mug as a cat scoop. Food, if you're feeling nice ... litterbox if you're feeling especially aggravated.
msbelle - slogan I've heard, "MaskIt or Casket" which I think sums it up.
And I came across this. It's allergies I'm telling you!

We have some work slowly coming back where we are going to be out on construction sites to install new systems. Glad to have the work, but I have two workers who really need to be in full N95 masks for various reasons and there just is no way to get ones that I can confirm are actually the real thing and not a counterfeit mask. I did fine one 10 pack of real 3M masks for sale, for over $2000. Humanity just sucks.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That kind of price gouging is disgusting. I'm sorry it's so hard to keep your people safe, ND

It would be nice if I could go a few weeks without finding out from my mom that my dad is in the ER.
