I CANNOT get over the fact that one day, my kid is going to come home and ask me about The Pandemic for a school project in history class. (Assuming the human race lasts long enough for me to have children and for them to reach school age before society fucking collapses). We are living in history, the things we are experiencing are going to be chapters in a book and we will be primary sources. How the hell am I going to look my kid in the eye and tell them how irresponsible our nation was with this? How am I supposed to explain the absolute insanity of anti-maskers to people who didn’t witness it first hand? Not to mention that american history books will likely gloss over our shitty response to this because that’s what we do, we pretend that everyone else was wrong and The Great America is the victim. One day my kid is going to come home and ask me what my experience was and I’ll have to tell them that my employer told an entire staff meeting that infection was ‘inevitable’. I’ll have to tell them that I was nearly physically assaulted for asking a man to pull his mask over his nose, and regularly called mean names for just trying to do my job. Do I tell them that this disease was here for months before the lockdown, kept quiet behind closed doors? Do I tell them that their great grandmother got sick out of nowhere in December (my mom, my aunt, and myself also got a very mysterious and intense 'cold’ around this time), and the doctors had no idea where it was coming from, and months later, after she had already died, we read a symptom list and had a horrible, horrible realization? Do I tell them how the risk was downplayed, how the public was lied to? How are we going to explain this fucking failure as a society to our future children? Is this the story you want to tell, America? Are you proud of this goddamn embarrassment? Because I’m not. I’m fucking mortified. This is embarrassing, it’s disgusting, it’s shameful. This pandemic tested America, and we fucking failed. I hope your fucking haircut was worth generations of shame.

Sooo I rarely post anything not related to my blog, but I’m taking a research class at my university this semester and my group and I are researching how the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the mental health of college students ages 18-24! We are looking for around 50 more participants. If you fit the criteria and have about 10 minutes to spare I would be so appreciative if you would consider taking our survey! Thank you all so much

A Year Lost: How the COVID-19 Pandemic Has Impacted the Mental Health of College Students Ages 18-24

Is anyone else stressed about classes even more now that they’re online? Like I asked one of my professors if he could start recording the zoom sessions in case anyone missed a class/ didn’t understand/ didn’t want to come, and he said he looked in to it. He didn’t. I emailed him again asking about it and HE DIDNT RESPOND!! Like EXCUSE YOU… I KNOW YOU AINT DOING ANYTHING! I feel like I just got left on read by my own teacher. Like WTF…

A little more detail on my new amigurumi work, Socially Distant Mice :)

Socially Distant Mice designed and crocheted by me :)

The only thing I’ve done in two weeks off that I’m proud of.

Y’all ok?

Just a little reminder in all this uncertainty.

[Image ID: a tweet thread by Nazir Afzal, @nazirafzal. The first tweet reads:

“Boris Johnson is the first sitting prime minster to be judged guilty of a crime

Sunak the first Chancellor to be fined

Carrie the first PM’s wife to be fined

Downing Street is a crime scene”

It is tagged #Partygate.

The second reads:

“Let’s be clear this is the most atrocious leadership during the worst public crisis since WW2

He made the law
We complied with the law at great personal cost - all of us
He & his Govt broke the law

Without the rule of law, there is no democracy”

The third reads:

“To those saying ‘now is not the time’ for Johnson to resign

Those of us who lost loved ones to covid & couldn’t attend funerals also believed that 'now was not the time’

But we responded to the greater good, we decided to comply with the law & we made sacrifices while he didn’t”

The third reads:

“LAW BREAKERS CANNOT BE LAW MAKERS”
It is tagged #BorisJohnson, #RishiSunak, #TheRestOfThem, and #Partygate.

The last reads:

“I lost my brother to covid & my mum to a broken heart in the 1st lockdown
I have been asked by numerous media outlets to be interviewed about Johnson

I’ve turned them all down because I’m so angry that I don’t know what I would say

When the anger subsides, he’s still a liar”
