I’m sooo looking forward to the day masks start working!
I’m told this is a bad take! How embarrassing! Sorry!
OK, OK: I’m sooo glad that masks started working. What a glorious day for science and kindness! Which is why everybody knows that was...when and where was that, now?
Wait, wait...masks are working now? They *are*?
What’s this?

Are you eating lots of vitamin C daily? I do. Since I started a few years ago, I’ve basically never gotten sick. I got sick 5+ times a year before that.

There’s no downside. Uncle Larry says “do it.”
BTW I do not endorse all the other stuff people say they are putting in their bodies. Like, whatever, dudez.

But C? It's proven. Was proven *decades* ago. Also, in many countries outside the U.S., this is well-known. And it works extremely well for me.
And no, it doesn't give me or my family any diarrhea or stomach issues. :-)

While we may and should be grateful for what we have, still—is life on earth, as the Preacher of Ecclesiastes says, “vanity” (an inconsequential vapor)?
Ecclesiastes 1:2 KJV
“Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher, vanity of vanities; all is vanity.”

He meant it, too.
Such a completely anti-21st century sentiment. We are such boasters, narcissists, working on our “personal brands,” compromising our principles for things that ultimately matter little, genuinely impressed by mere show.

Not all of us of course.

1/ I am thankful for our present peace, such as it is, despite the hyperventilating, hysterical attitude toward the election frankly on both sides (admit it).
2/ Ours is a remarkable time: one side is deeply suspicious of the other, the leaders of which they believe to be thoroughly corrupt and criminal; while the other side utterly loathes and despises their opponents’ rank and file as well as the leadership...
3/ ...so much so that one suspects a common attitude at some level: “we’d *better* be cheating and we’d better win, or it will be the most horrible disaster ever!”

We have peace because each side hopes it will prevail.

I’m still grateful for that peace.

...but it's because of a virus that poses an unprecedented level of danger, because of easy travel...and health bureaucrats say so. That's why travel is restricted and the health bureaucrats (and the governors etc. who employ them) now function as dictators.

Strictly temporary.
We're just slowing the spread. That's why we wear masks and follow curfews. It won't stop it, but yes, it will slow the spread.

And sure, it can be expected to blow up into a dark winter which will cause mass extended lockdowns everywhere, but that will be reasonable too.
Everything will go back to normal after the vaccine is here. Well, you'll need regular vaccines, because this virus doesn't respond the way vaccines normally do. We've known that since we didn't have a vaccine. Come on, keep up.

But actually...
