I try to be aware and respect hearing loss, but the folks recently commenting about masks muffling my voice have, I think, lost mask tolerance /respect, not hearing.

Several hospital staff (and others) have told me in the recent past that they have difficulty hearing me through my mask. Strange because I taught community college for years through it with no such comments. Did I start mumbling after retirement this summer? :)

Charles, on the other hand, loves posing to the camera.

Could he/the Libs be trying to win back MSM opinion spinners to (longer term) swing traditional con voters —and to hell with us lefties who voted Lib only out of fear of PP/CPC populism?

PS John Fugelsang’s Separation of Church and Hate - A Sane Person's Guide to Taking Back the Bible from Fundamentalists, Fascists, and Flock-Fleecing Frauds is a wonderful read.

I think there are many more US Christian groups protesting and not getting MSM press coverage. More are starting. US Christian Nationalism needs to be defeated by Christians.
