Because No One Cares, You're Dead

Don't worry, you won't have a chance to get old if you live in shithole America.
Paula Span / New York Times:
For Older Americans, the Pandemic Is Not Over  —  Seniors are increasingly left to protect themselves as the rest of the country abandons precautions: “Americans do not agree about the duty to protect others.”  —  In early December, Aldo Caretti developed a cough and, despite all his precautions …
Digby has a large excerpt. This, by the way, is why I'm going to get a gun, use it to carjack some wealthy parasite, & make the streets run red w/ the blood of the young & middle-aged. I urge my fellow senior citizens to defend themselves as well. It's kill or be killed.

From last month, another episode in America eating its older citizens:
As Gen X and Boomers Age, They Confront Living Alone

Did three miles, 300 walkin’ jacks, 150 pushups, and 50 pullups in seventy-five minutes yesterday, did five miles, 500 walkin’ jacks, 300 pushups, and 100 pullups in just under one hundred minutes and I'm thinking I might just do seven miles tomorrow, 750, 500 & 200. There's a round (or two) of My Chi in there, and punches, haymakers and windmills count and jacks.

Come March I put the walkin' weights back on, do all that with thirty-five pounds, 3.5 wrist, 7 ankle and 14 torso.

Come for me bring an Army ...
