Trump reminds me of Benito Mussolini. Just saying.
People who have been safely sheltering at home are protesting, demanding to go back to work.
Meanwhile, workers who have been, very bravely, working throughout the lockdown without proper PPE (grocery workers, delivery workers, caregivers) are striking for better protection, pay, some time off.
Hair Report: My hair now looks like that of most of my professors at Uni way back when. Growing on to full hippie. What lies beyond Hippie hair? Full Bozo. Trimmed my sideburns which have gone completely white. #peace #love #groovy #freedomrock
I just ordered hand sanitizer from APR Bio-Tech. The thing that caught my eye was it continues to kill germs for 4 hours after application to your hands. For me, worth trying.
It’s not called Spring anymore. It’s Pressure Washing Season (PWS cos everything has to have 3 initials these days.) I’ll be hearing pressure washers in the ‘hood, continuously for the next few weeks.
With so much Wrongness about I had the urge to “do the right thing”. So I had Coco Wheats for breakfast.
It seems The White House has a Blockade Keeping States and Hospitals from Getting PPE Deeply disturbing. Read the Whole Thing.
We need a trickle down economic method for bailout money for big business and too big to fail banks. See if it works any better for them.
It’s fun to see people channel their stircrazyness into something fun and creative.

Everytime Trump says or does something I want to facepalm. Except we are not supposed to touch our face.
I don’t care if the airlines survive. We’ve bailed them out how many times since 9/11? That ought to tell us something. Of course I say this when @JohnPhilpin is stuck on an island somewhere. ;-) We need to switch to different means of transport.
And it’s snowing.
GOP Congressman: Lawmakers Must “Put On Our Big Boy and Big Girl Pants” and Let Americans Die. Talk is cheap when you are sending others to their deaths, Congressman Hollingsworth. Volunteer to lead us from the front.
I’m having trouble buying ebook fiction to read. I’m just not going to pay $13 for a fiction ebook.
Global supply chain things we overlooked for lockdown: chocolate cake delivery.
