Tell me again why I should care when a virus denier gets sick or dies. Yes, I understand they endanger health care workers and friends/neighbors. I get that. I’ll grieve for them. But if you refuse to wear a seat belt and die in a crash… or refuse to wear a helmet and die in a motorcycle crash (no others harmed)… why am I supposed to care? I’ve only got so much grief to go around and I’m now rationing.

They were out of those cool Trump flags
Series III Land Rover spotted in Manhattan
My friend Jamie Nelson spotted this beautiful Series III Land Rover in NYC (on 71st Street between 3rd Ave and Lexington)
And sunsets. I’m thankful for sunsets.
Torn apart by politics
A sad story in the New York Times about families torn apart by politics. In the excerpt below, the emphasis is mine.
“Will relationships heal now that Mr. Trump is no longer president? Nearly everyone interviewed for this article who had experienced a falling out said they did not think so — at least not immediately. Estelle Moore, a retired flight attendant in East Stroudsburg, Pa., said it was as if we had seen things in each other that we weren’t supposed to. But now that we had, we could not un-see them.”
This is the reason I choose not to discuss politics (and religion). Was going to add this to previous post but this deserves it’s own.
