DOD to Everyone: Mask Up to Combat COVID-19 [Air Force Magazine]
Hi there! Here’s yet another update. Hope everyone is staying safe indoors. I am very upset at companies price-gouging N95 masks. First of all, every single fucking person in a hospital should have access to one. For us civilians, at the very least, be sure to wear a cloth-based mask. You still need to sanitize it after every wear. The next weeks are going to be pretty tough so be careful. In addition, here’s a small warning to our young loved ones. I know many of you are bored at home, but when you play around the house, it is no excuse to do extreme jumping around needlessly or carelessly. The reason I say this is because the Emergency Room is at full capacity in many places dealing with the Coronavirus, who knows how long the wait will be if you have to show up for a twisted ankle or a broken leg. You can still have fun, just be cautious.
I’m balancing my time between project management, coordination, music, blogging, reading, and catching up on Gran Turismo. I have a server on Discord so if you want to join and chat, send me a message. Also, this is the perfect time to add your friends on your consoles and PC to play videogames together. I love playing FIFA 20 with my brothers, even though they’re better than me.
Anyone who doesn’t support MedicareForAll at this point has no soul. In our dark days, we need Bernie Sanders (who was right all along) more than ever. The Establishment is working very hard not to display what he has to say, so be sure to follow him on Our Revolution.
One more thing, thank you to Bill Gates for throwing a few billions to find a damn vaccine for the Coronavirus. It is much appreciated.
Until next time!
