I’ve spent the last sleepless nights obviously concerned with our current situation, but what gives me the most anxiety is wondering if anything will ever feel “normal” again. I can’t imagine getting on a plane again without feeling I am putting myself at some sort of risk. The thought of hugging or shaking someone’s hand again suddenly feels unnatural. -And just the idea of being shoulder-to-shoulder on a subway or at a concert again seems reckless.
With the trauma of not being able to find basic human necessities, the mental image imbedded in my brain of empty grocery stores, and the onset fear of human contact, I just don’t think we will ever be able to simply turn this all off and go back to the way things were before... And that scares me. #3amthoughts
Before we can even think about the "after" we have to think about the NOW. Here is what you do. Stay inside and wash your fucking hands.
What you don't do is go on Instagram and do these stupid fucking "challenges". Take a look around; shit's not ideal. If you are properly staying at home, that's a challenge in itself. -So stop posting these stupid videos of you doing push-ups. The cycle can stop with you, because it's really annoying and you're embarrassing.
Another thing you don't do is tell me misleading facts about Covid-19. Unless you are a doctor in scrubs from Kaiser Permanente, mind your own fucking business. I literally got in multiple arguments (from 6 feet away) about this. You can't read a headline or hear second hand information and think it’s true. The amount of invalids I overheard saying "Did you hear 56% of Californians will get Coronavirus in 8 weeks". That is NOT what was said.... They said if we went on living our lives as if nothing was wrong, in 8 weeks they PROJECT 56% of Californians would get Corona. -But we aren't living our lives like nothing is wrong, schools are closed, work is cancelled, I am in my 30's and I have a fucking curfew... we are taking these steps to stop the rise... So NO 56% of Califonians aren't going to catch this [you fucking uneducated idiots]. People hear these outlandish statistics, chaos ensues, and then the world runs out of toilet paper. Be informed, or shut up! Better yet be informed AND shut the fuck up!
I know these ramblings are typically reserved for Facebook updates, but at this time I don’t have the energy to fight with anymore “Karen’s” and their radical political views.
