I get a lot of misaddressed email (I own several domains and have most of the configured that ANY account @ that domain ends up in my inbox). I was getting FLOODED by Trump email for a single person Daily and multi-daily missives about "Mr. Trump his checking his list of supporters and was surprised that you're name isn't on the recent donors list. We assured him it was a mistake! Please donate $5 TODAY so Mr. Trump will know that you don't support communists and also eat babies!" (I only slightly shit you.)

I finally set up filters to kill all that crap, but daaaaamn.

Yep. I saw some of that that on Twitter yesterday and was all fuuuuuuck. The access to Canada from that state is still a plus.

We had a protest in my town yesterday and afterwards all the paranoid Trumpers went on the community social media to flex about their guns and freedom of movement and stopping antifa.:roll:

I actually signed up for Trump’s email onslaught a while back to see what the pod people see and the stuff they send out is worse than Publisher’s Clearing House. They write like seventh graders on meth and Mountain Dew.

There's a part of me that's now thinking that a bunch of escaped lab monkeys waving bottles of coronavirus would make a far better job of running the world than some of our current leaders.

Hard to argue with that.

You have seen 28 Day Later, right?

Saw that at a late night showing at Comic Con.
We hate horror movies and it was a random choice that all makes sense now.
Watched the second half with my hand over my face.

Ugh.

Interesting follow up to this story, the military submitted a report to both the Ontario/Provincial & Canadian/Federal government's about the neglect & abuse they uncovered in some of those long term care homes.

I don't believe in God and I'm basically against all militaries, and yet I find myself wanting to say "God bless our troops!"
