can somebody explain to me what this has to do with covid-19?

- Establishments must close at midnight. 

nothing to do with covid-19 at all.

- Places selling or serving alcohol can only do so between 9 a.m. and 11 p.m. 

nothing to do with covid-19 at all

- No alcohol consumption is allowed between 12 a.m. and 9 a.m. 

nothing to do with covid-19 at all.

- Contact information must be collected for patrons of restaurants or bars. 

nothing to do with covid-19 at all.

- Limit of six people allowed to sit together at an establishment. 

nothing to do with covid-19 at all.

- Recreational programs are limited 10 people per room indoors and 25 outdoors. 

nothing to do with covid-19 at all.

meanwhile, there are no increased restrictions on religious gatherings (which are the #1 problem), no restrictions on schools, no restrictions on daycares, etc.

i thought we were done with this stupidity. i guess not... 

that was vicious, as always, but i seem to be pushing through it. having the window open is awful, but required; i need the airflow. it's nearly freezing...but i know i'll trip right back into it if i close it...

if i could just keep it down to a dull throb like i did for years previous, i could just plod through it, but i have to deal with the blurry vision and the difficulty focusing. ugh. ugh...

and, here comes another aura....migraine incoming....ugh.....

they're the bad guys, and they always were the bad guys.

the progressive movement is not merely responsible for some of the worst human rights abuses in american history.

no - the progressive movement, if extrapolated fully to the puritanical movement in full generality, is responsible for all of the worst human rights abuses in american history.

and, i am not interested in reform - it should be thrown in the trash and moved on from.

...and i know who my enemies are.

i'm not naive. i'm not disillusioned. i know who's on my side and who isn't.

from harry h. laughlin to tipper gore and beyond, the american progressive movement has been the vanguard of the country's most conservative voices, and the staunchest threat to the freedom of the most people in the country, the whole time.

they are the primary enemy of free thinking people, and they always were.

this is not surprising.

at all.

no. stop.

progressives were always religious, they were always fascistic, they never supported free speech and they always hated the gays. these are the people that wrote the sterilization laws that hitler copied - this is ground zero for fascism, from day one.

i've never aligned with these groups; i've always been clear to refer to myself as an anarchist, a socialist and even prefer to identify as a liberal. 

"progressive" is a dirty word to me, and always has been - and it should be for you to, if you're really honest about the history of the term, how it's been used and the movements it's been associated with.

needless to say, i won't be quiet - and the more these tactics continue, the more they will need to be spoken out against.

the free world will win in the end, even if it takes a thousand years for it to happen.

yeah, i seem to be under cyberattack, again - it comes up and down, and i have to reconnect to the isp by power cycling.

it's easy to deduce it's some group of annoying children that want to play some kind of stupid game, or some "progressive" group of islamofascists or christofascists trying to shut me down because i "offended" them, but the totality of evidence suggests it's the cia.

this is your tax dollars at work, folks - some asshole religionists are out there beating their wives and raping their daughters and killing their gay sons, and i'm who they go after, instead. it indicates where their priorities really are, and how captured the state is, right now.

geez, "prince" harry sure got disowned, huh?

it's almost like he's a red-headed stepchild, or something.

i wonder if he knows....they should have the decency to tell him who his father is, if they do.

the seaweed is coming....that's the last part of this...

you can get some taurine, too, if you pick the right kind - and that's a big empty space, for me.

but, you don't have to be asian to eat seaweed, it's actually a part of indigenous european cuisine:

ugh.

it looks like they're cancelling free access to google voice, which means i'm going to go back to having to use a pay phone to call out.

i simply don't want to - and simply will not - pay for a cell phone. i'd rather do without; i always have.

we'll see what actually happens, but google seems to be generally moving in that direction, and i'm not going to pay up - i'll stay behind.

so, here is the data from bulk barn, for later:

resetting my modem seems to have helped a little....for now....

so, it seems like i needed another day's worth of recovery from that migraine. the nonresponsive internet over night really didn't help and ended up zonking me out due to boredom, so let's hope that the pigs worked out whatever silly, evidence-less, paranoid fantasy they were jerking off to overnight and i can move forward today without the annoyance.

i got a detailed response from bulk barn regarding the hemp seed that answers my questions about the vitamin e content, but nothing from youtube about the mysterious account suspension.

i got up to choline done last night before it halted on me, so i'm going to kind of reboot today. there's just one more pseudo b vitamin (carnitine), then quick entries for c & d before i can get back to doing my write-up for e.

unfortunately, it seems like some absolutely revolting person upstairs is smoking today, too, so i may need to open the window to let the pollution in :(. i'm going to start by running the hot water and see how well that works in moistening up the space, first...
