Okay so I cancelled my third dose appointment due to fascists in the forecast, and now I’ve got a choice to make again about what to call myself. Is there any drawback to using my real information and maybe fibbing a little about my immune status? I don’t see how that would possibly come back to bite me, but am I missing anything?

There is no moral judgment in lying to protect yourself. Get that booster.

LOL at the tweet and a gut-busting LMAO at the gif. So what's the deal with getting the third shot? Do we just saunter into a CVS / Walgreens and ask for the third shot?

I dunno. I think the time for fake names is now. Before Max Titers completes the 50 state vaccine tour. If anything, you can bank your real name shot for the spring.

I lit all of my political favors on fire for nothing and stressed my family out. I remember getting tone policed by my brother for talking about covid. Not that anything was necessarily wrong with what I was saying but that the tone sucked. Though lol, I was not handling looking at the future of America back in March of 2020. Even viewed dimly it was going to be grim and I was not handling it well. So he was onto something even if he was missing the mark. I still think the same things I do but I'm just calm about it now. Not zen, just chill. I still get anxiety about it but it's extremely manageable. I just have some tea and focus on my breathing.

I assume I should wait a few weeks before a booster (just got un-quarantined/freed to get back to the covid mines after a breakthrough infection). Or should I Max my Titters tomorrow?

My family is mostly bizzarro rural socialists that just let poo poo happen to them Republican-style. One of my brother's best friends died due to covid at 24. She was heavy so everyone is all "she was fat, rip" but so is most of America. Hole up, read a book or sixteen, just go with it. You aren't doing anything wrong and don't think you are. There's nothing wrong with protecting yourself and your loved ones. My wife's grandmother is 97 years old and we've been spending as much time with her as we can. I'm just happy we got to see her again. I was so worried she'd die before we could see her again. Good outcomes are possible.

Oh I have no moral qualms on this one whatsoever, I just don’t know if I’ve got the acting chops to pull off showing up in a respirator and acting like I just this second became concerned about covid. I’d prefer to be honest purely for the sake of simplicity, I’m just wondering if that can bite me later

I haven't been to an indoor restaurant since March of 2020. My wife and I have paid off all our debt except our mortgage. I am down 25 lbs from where I was in March of 2020. I can ride my bike 110 miles in one day. I will never go back to my old lifestyle and I don't give a gently caress what capital thinks of that. I don't need that poo poo anymore.

Is there any drawback to using my real information and maybe fibbing a little about my immune status? I don’t see how that would possibly come back to bite me, but am I missing anything? My personal opinion is that we both will and won't see fascists in the forecast. America is really big. Some places are more predisposed to fascism and some aren't. Some places will have fascists rise up and seize power only for the roni to continually strike them down because they're dumb as gently caress. Some won't. Some may fall into anarchy. Some may have some sort of functioning government or at least get organized. So America is going to be all over the loving place in terms of political response. During a pandemic the fash are going to have a really hard time congregating in a single place to do some real street violence. The hard core are generally drawn in from far and wide. Even if some strong daddy figure emerges, any fascist rallies are going to be superspreader events. Most of the BLM protests had popular local support along with a traveling hard corps of activists. This isn't the same for the fash who generally have to travel quite a distance to get to where they need to go. They're just going to get sick as gently caress because one of them is going to get a shitload more of them sick. And when their numbers keep continually getting worn down they'll lose control of the streets, if they ever had control in the first place rather than randomly showing up and terrifying people. The current fascists are too dumb to thrive in this sort of environment for the long haul and they 100% require the police to support them and the police are getting whittled down by covid, retirement and plain old quitting. Hotspots like Portland are going to be a nightmare though. Fash and anti-fash central are probably going to have it out. Riot season is going to be crazy though. The government is way more likely to go mask off because it's weak, so it'll crack down immediately to keep popular unrest from snowballing. So let the fash and the authoritarians exhaust themselves and keep your head down. Ice Phisherman fucked around with this message at 04:58 on Aug 17, 2021 |
