Like awesome the word hero is entirely overused. I discuss why being a medical professional does not make you a hero.
Scott Adams’ Video :

Heroism is no longer reserved for individuals of especial merit. Apparently, you simply have to choose the right vocation. Sod the reason for your choice. No matter how mercenary. You’re a hero. Especially in a crisis – which you never mishandle. Because you know HERO!
Today Scott Adams said society owes healthcare workers a debt….
I don’t get how society owes health care workers a debt that they don’t owe every other sector of the workforce. You chose a field, you knew the dangers, you wanted the prestige, the money, the challenge, you got it. I don’t owe you shit.
Especially not the hundreds of thousands of dollars you charge every time I stub my god damn toe.
Am I thankful? Sure. I’m also thankful to soldiers, grocers, and the god damn mailman.
This medic worship is the civilian version of the robotic “thank you for your service”. It too can go to hell.
Notes: As regards the link. It’s really hard to take care of the ill. Especially lots of them at once. This isn’t a jab at the medical field as a whole. Simply, presented as evidence that these are just people doing their jobs with the same variety of attitudes towards circumspection that exist in every other god damn profession.
Doing a difficult job is not heroic.
The video which did raise my ire:

Just a bit of a ramble on normie news.
Note: The article on Rogan actually wasn’t bad. I don’t dislike Bari Weiss. I just find many of her views distasteful so I rag on her a bit.

O thunder
O elemental force
From outstretched aeons
Such wonder
Mocks direction
Raise now the cup the jubilant shout
The desert muses silent
Beneath the weeping heavens
The tide is turning
The message sent
I was doing a bit of writing and decided to make a ‘cultist chant’ for some potential future stories about desert rites. I hope, you enjoy it.
Currently, editing and working on finishing a fiction story of indeterminate length. I will attempt to make a vlog later this evening. But there’s no guarantee due to life being life.
I hope your memorial day is going well and you’ve had time to reflect on the sacrifices prior generations have made. But not so much that you forgot to enjoy the good times with friends and families that such sacrifices enable.
Best wishes,
Alex V. Weir

I offer some suggestions on dealing with the blues. An offering called forth by the disheartening rate of suicides we’re seeing during the Coronavirus lockdown.

The economy does not have an off switch.
I review this and many other excellent observations from the following article: https://www.unz.com/mwhitney/the-lockdown-has-turned-america-into-a-despotic-cash-strapped-basket-case/
Note: My chipper demeanor has everything to do with having a great day filled with beer and food. I absolutely take this situation seriously and am concerned (to say the least) for the future.

Been a bit since I uploaded so I thought I’d keep the pace going by talking about some issues that affect Millenials and the ever virulent Russia Derangement Syndrome.

Figuring out which supplements work is a gamble. A quick look at whether or not Glucosamine/Chondroitin acts as advertised.
