I saw this at the store today and I had to take a picture.
I kept waiting for him to turn around so I could capture his mask too but he didn't.

So... another effect this has had on us, is we had to upgrade our internet. The kids are doing distance learning and our connection was not supporting it. And movies? Fuhgettaboutit! Today, after they got their work done, they are watching an Avengers movie. Peace reigns in the household. And my Pandora is streaming smoothly. Happy Grandma!

An eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind. That person might just be trying to feed their own family. Society has always found ways to come together and survive - not through harsh and rugged individualism but through community and support. If we reach the point where that's no longer possible you're more likely to be the person stealing food than the person with resources.

The fact that you sit and theorize and imagine a world where you need to shoot randos makes me glad that the people I live around imagine a world of support and love instead. It's going to pay off way better for us in the long run to share resources and support than to try to hoard them. And history supports that position.

(Not to mention that weird fantasy world where you have to shoot people has no basis in the reality of COVID-19. Our world is still really stable and entrenched in it's current systems and other systems will crop up to replace those LONG before we hit the point of "shoot hungry people to live". It's not like COVID-19 is the T-virus or walking dead....)

Here the people who commit crimes are meth heads. They want anything they can sell to trade for drugs. I’m not going to shoot someone who wants my tv.

But nobody’s gonna get my iPad!

You present too much of a challenge even for Kelsey.

Thank you @sourland, I resemble that remark!

(Waves at daughter) Dolls creep me out, too! All those eyes! [Shudder]

Yes they are alive, but only move around when you are not in the room! Be careful.

We are expecting temps in the 80's, with possible thunderstorms late today, 2"-4" hail and possibility of tornadoes. Would much prefer snow!

I love snow. It snows here but not often. Whenever it my chickens come out to the snow they try desperately to fly over it. They are so funny!

My tiny babies first trip outside!

I suspect they’d be gossiping about my lack of fashion sense.
