[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 7940397, member: 19675"] I know what I said earlier, and I stand by it. But in the interests of full disclosure: This has been a mental whipsaw of an evening in the house tonight after my previous post. It’s Mom’s birthday today, but we’re planning on celebrating it this Saturday. But her cousin came over with a cake. After cake, we- as a family & houseguest*- watched the POTUS make his address tonight. The convo then switched to “what to do”, with most of the important stuff being said between my aforementioned Dad MD and Mom’s cousin- also an MD. An hour after Cousin MD left, I’m folding laundry while watching a recording of MST3K, and our houseguest announced her son was suggesting she fly down to his place**, where they’d seal themselves off for a couple of weeks. Houseguest was asking Mom for advice about whether she should go (despite hearing the MDs earlier discussion). Mom asked how she felt. Houseguest is convinced that Covid-19 is nothing more than the regular annual flu- for which she hasn’t gotten a vaccination- and everything on the mainstream media is a hoax designed to prevent the re-election of DJT.*** I...said nothing and kept folding clothes. I have to say, sometimes, you [I]really[/I] want those close to you to be much farther away. * a close family friend we’ve known for decades who is down on her luck at the moment. ** while he could, before the economy collapsed and the airlines stopped flying ***which brings my count of people with that opinion to 3 [/QUOTE]
