A bunch of y’all started following me the last few days. I’ve been totally inactive here for a while.

Is there a group on social media you’ve given up on arguing with entirely? A group that’s not worth the time or mental bandwidth for the sub-basement level possibility of a payoff?
Personally, I’ll discuss vaccines and try to convince someone who’s undecided, but I don’t fuck with anti-vaxxers.

My roommate keeps telling me I should start a podcast.
I look at the podcast landscape and I’m petrified to inaction.
I know my writing matters to like four people but I’m not convinced a microphone wouldn’t just add to the hum of noise.

People told me I was overreacting to the onslaught of anti-roe legislation when I had my fallopian tubes removed. If I could do it over again, I’d have asked them to take the uterus too.

The fact that the MSM is writing "Is masking coming back?" articles instead of "How do we prevent another mass-casualty event?" shows that we've entirely lost the plot. We're more concerned about our convenience than whether another 1.1M Americans die of COVID.
