Replacing the much lamented 'On My Mind' profile option, this thread is for musings, jottings, whimsies, preoccupations and the rest of the thesaurus for anyone to jot down anything they please.
I can't remember what the maximum character count was before, can anyone else? But anyway it wasn't very many so let's keep to that.
re covid - I have to laugh as I already often have well more than half the symptoms due to allergies, and CFS/FM. How would I know that I got it? The things I would have to look for are a fever (haven't had one in years) and a headache. Oh well. Life goes on.
If I can do it, I will do it. Muscles, that don't get used, atrophy!
And I have stubborn Scandinavian in me.😉

Was there sound on yours Glad?
Just checking!
from The Globe and Mail
"Meanwhile, a Red Deer restaurant has closed temporarily after public health inspectors say some of its staff accepted dog photos instead of vaccine passports to dine-in."
Takes all kinds!!!!
Sil is feeling better. Hopefully he will be over it in a few days. Dd has no signs of infection so far.
I am finding it very weird at my age to have one (adult)child with diabetes and one with cancer. The latter, particularly, is something I never expected.
When was the last time anyone took 5 doses of any vaccines to be protected?
My guess is that it will not stop at #5.
Insanity!!!
These so called vaccines have been shown to be IN-effective, except to cause harm from maiming to death to many unlucky people.
It should be snow!

Meanwhile, Pfizer and Moderna are happy to sell more shots, raking in Billions of dollars worldwide. The more variants the better for them. Covid vaccines aren't free. We tax payers pay every red cent of it. And let's not forget, many people paid the ultimate price.
Extremely conservative here, vaccination rate is less than 40%.
England just said they are ending all covid mandates. Inckuding forced vaccination, masks and social distancing. Doubt the USA media will report on this either. The narrative is slowly starting to crumble on this but I have to wonder what they have up their sleeves to keep it going.
Meanwhile, the dictator in the Philippines has ordered arrest of any unvaccinated people who violate his stay at home order. In Australia, indigenous people are being removed and forced to get vaccinated against their will.
My international web searches tell me reports of forced vaccination in Australia are fake (I hadn't heard that one until now LOL).
As for dictators - they're always gonna trample on human rights in one way or another
A year ago, it was considered a conspiracy to say that the vaccines affect women’s periods, reproductive system. Now it’s a fact.
Those fact check sites have their loyalty squarely placed in the vaccines/mandates.
Anyway I think it's past time to change the subject.
I don't even know eight people without issues.
However... I've been thinking for some time that the media and politicians are doing everyone a disservice by not being straightforward in trusting the public with hard scientific facts. It's a fact that researchers didn't foresee (because they couldn't) how resistant this novel virus would be to natural infections or vaccinations, and there's been confusion in the best brains over the data coming back. But that's not a message, that I've seen, from any media/politicians or agency spokespersons. It's clear that antibodies are the way forward. Other things are a muddle.
And now that I've typed this comment that I already regret, may I never say another thing about covid on AC. (Hah. Not likely but I'll try to keep it to a minimum. 🤐)
RIP to the 5.6M people who have passed from this virus, and may the advances science makes that help many others be a legacy to them and others affected.
I stress, "current." You might make a few dollars on a little bet on that point if you're a gambling woman and you're quick.
That's 'on my mind' today as I listened to NPR on the drive home. I think it's a symptom of the bigger problems in the divide between ideologies and allies be damned, but maybe I'm overthinking it.
