There's no credits that roll. You just go back and do it all over again, which is what I will do for the next three nights. This is a minor I don't understand when faced with reality, refused to believe it exists. And yet there's a part of me that wishes there was a way we could offer them some sort of comfort

You have to have a lot of courage, a lot of personal resilience, and be able to confront the truth. And I think that's our society's greatest weakness is we can't confront the truth often, so we deny, avoid, bury it at all costs, because the truth is too disturbing

Hey, Plum, thank you for recording and sharing this. And Greg, thank you so much for tagging me in this. So allow me to weigh in. Perhaps the word I'm using is controversial and unwelcome outcome, but I do find COVID-19 interesting interesting, because we can't really get a handle on this. We don't know what this is. It shows in too many layers of human frailty, from cardiovascular issues to pulmonary issues, from blood clots to issues with brain function

And therein, I think, lies. The problem is the people that we've elected are perhaps managers. They're not innovators. They're not pragmatists. They're simply the current manager that's trying to hold down the Fort. But that Jeff's position did you put out there between trust and frailty or vulnerability, even in that post by that nurse being sick with covet in the hospital, still in denial. Give me some magic pill wow that was profoundly sad bye
