Ongoing coronavirus happenings

Whether Americans know it or not, their government is not working for them. Their government is working on behalf of capital. Humans are now a mere second-order, instrumental factor to be considered based on how it affects capital. In this perilous time, capital must be protected and nurtured, and we must draw resources from our entire society in order to help capital survive, in the same way that the body will draw blood from other organs to save the brain. People can be sacrificed—capital is irreplaceable. We are navigating our way through this so that capital comes out okay on the other side. It is no exaggeration to say that tens or hundreds of thousands of Americans will die because we are choosing this approach, rather than an approach that prioritizes human life. They will die because we did not dedicate resources before this pandemic to building an adequate system of public health care, and they will die because we made the decision during this pandemic to put the needs of capital first. We did not keep working people on payrolls, because that would be less advantageous for the owners of capital. We did not nationalize factories, nor pharmaceuticals, because that would be less advantageous to the owners of capital. And of course we did not release the prisoners in the jails being ravaged by this disease. What would that do for the stock market?

President Trump is asking whether there can be some sort of disinfectant injection, “almost a cleaning,” in people’s bodies to fight the coronavirus.

“It would be interesting to check that,” he said.

He added, “The whole concept of the light. That’s pretty powerful.”

I feel like the pineapple and coconut juice in my screwdriver is making much better use of plant physiology. And it definitely seems to be putting sunlight in my body.

I have my own technique, though lethality may or may not favorably compare to hydroxychloroquine.

PGA punch! I wonder if there’s still a negative floating around out there of me with my head under the PGA punch waterfall.

If only I knew the things I know now about alcohol…I would have gotten myself into a lot more trouble.
