Because I’m having ridiculous Facebook fights with total strangers. 😂😂😂

More mask mandates were announced yesterday. Predictably, everyone (me included) commenced to losing their minds. And I was stupid enough to go read the comments.

First, some chick said this and I replied and then some dude decided he had something to contribute.

And then I said this.

And then the dude said this:

And so I said

And then he shut up.

The end.

BAZINGAH!

I took a big break from social media awhile ago and I no longer engage the crazy, but every now and then I go in a peek at the people I've unfriended to see what wacky shit they've come up with lately. Curiosity always kills the cat.

One in particular has gone so far down the Q-Anon road, he constantly posts link after link after link after link to all the 'research' he's been doing to support his arguments against the sheeples. He's a musician and mentioned a pig roast gig he did a month ago in a barn with 200 people, no distancing and 'go figure, nobody got sick'.

Yeah, I'm sure they had contact lists and tracking / tracing set up for that gathering...

The stupid is too thick to ever see us to the other side of this mess.

That's why I don't do social media. I'd be arrested the first day and lose my bar license. I read today about a woman slinging another woman down because the one woman asked her to pull her mask up on her face. The woman had just had a lung transplant four months ago and was so scared of people not wearing masks. Mean woman slung her down and broke her leg. In Staples at the copier, no less.

Dayumn Girl. You told him.

FB is full of morons. You won't change anyone's mind. Just let it roll.

I have actually changed my feed to 90% animals, the Zoo, Lab pages, Nature pages, beach pages. I just couldn't anymore. I silenced a few "Friends" that are anti-maskers.

It's not worth it.

@ selfish gonad

No one changes unless they want to. Not if you beg them. Not if you shame them. Not if you use reason, emotion, or tough love. There is only one thing that makes someone change: their own realization that they need to.

'selfish gonad' might be my new favorite!

I just can't even with fuckin humans these days. Like DUDE, a virus does not give two diddly shits about 'mah freedum' or 'murica. The fucking attitude about all this is just absolutely mind-boggling to me...

Now I'm all over this FB page where a bunch of people decided to pile on and attack my sister over a post that she made.

I'm that little sister in all the memes. And I made up a new word today. I'm bitchtipated. I'm used to letting out my inner bitch and sarcasm in small doses every day. And I've been cooped up with my H and sons for 26 days so it's all backed up. I needed an emotional enema and these people provided it.
