If you’re venturing out and can’t decide if you should wear a mask… today marks my 31 y/o cousin’s 78th(ish) day of hospitalization due to COVID & is working on facial exercises like relearning how to furrow her brow while a nurse props up her head b/c she can’t do it herself. https://t.co/93Q6w8BQXK

In a real country, we’d have community police (not fucking current death squad pseudo-military police) fining people $1,000 for reckless endangerment if someone went into a shop or smilar without a mask.

The US has no hope against the pandemic and it’s totally going to whip our ass come fall.

I’m below average in sociality (not skills) and below average in number of women I’ve ever approached (online or off), and I estimate I’ve been rejected 600-800 times.

For the average man my age, it’s probably like 1,500-2,000 times.

I think most women would shoot themselves in the head if they got rejected as often, and as cruelly, as men often experience. In this area, women just have no goddamn clue. None at all.

Hey remember when all of Asia was wearing masks 4 months ago and rest of the world said that was dumb, that was bad times https://t.co/m3UiJiwt9L

Thank you, “experts.” Good one.

I wrote about something that's been deeply troubling me for months: Suicides and overdoses among Millennials are going up, and it's looking like it's only going to get worse https://t.co/h3pVGx9zTF

This was obviously going to happen, and the Pandemic Depression is going to make it so much worse.

Also, 95% of the liberal “concern” about age differences and even most of #metoo is about keeping the top 10% of women’s dating pool as they’d prefer it to be. When viewed this way, it makes total sense. Otherwise, it’s a pointless freak-out.

I cannot explain podcasts supplanting blogs, because podcasts are terrible and time-wasters. People actually want that? Why? I can read 10x as fast as I can listen to anything, with more comprehension.

Ha. Yeah.

My life feels like a series of hearing people exclaim, “But you can’t do that!” And watching people’s faces as I say, “Motherfucker, I already done did it.”

The potency of mask politics became clear this week in Orange County, where the health officer resigned after weeks of attacks — and a death threat — over her mandatory mask rules. Her replacement on Thursday rescinded the rules.

We are a deeply stupid people.

Face masks don’t even have to work especially well to be effective.

Which is what I was saying all fucking along. Fuck. Because I can read.

I really, really hate programming.

Did I mention I fucking despise it? Being forced to do more of it lately and. No. Thank. You.

I think a large part of the liberal attempt to deny the reality of biological sex is that if they can convince people that bio sex does not exist, then they can obviously make people buy anything at all, no matter how outrageous.

It’s like 1984‘s 2+2 = 5. If you can really, truly and deeply believe that, then it proves that you will accept anything at all.

Wait, “warlord” is now racist? That’s fucking funny, because when I think “warlord,” I think some blue-eyed Germanic dude cloaked in bearskins, fighting Roman centurions. Or a Viking.

Declaring every word “racist” isn’t very useful, really.
