My friend Betsy, from York, was called yesterday and told her position was being eliminated. She worked one on one with handicapped individuals and new guidelines have been issued. Those who are handicapped tend to have many more health issues than your average person. From what she was telling me, it seems as though they are going to create 'safe houses' for them until this thing passes which makes her employer seriously over-staffed. This is another casualty because of the incompetency in the White House.
And I'm beginning to see push back on the Idiot Jerk's decision to send everybody back to work around April 7, just in time for his Evangelical Base to celebrate Easter. That's almost word for word what I read in Bloomberg, and that source is not alone. There are 2 reasons he wants people back to work: if the economy sinks, so does he, and his Evangelical base. He needs his base. He made a deal with them: he would make this country as Cracker Jack Crazy Christian as they wanted if the supported him, and protected him. And his Crazy Christian base? They don't care how many Americans get sacrificed as long as they get what they want. They are the selfish face of Christianity. They are also Republicans... and their favorite pronoun is 'my.' Covid - 19 is going to piss the hell out of them before it ravages them.
The weather yesterday was wonderful. Temps were in the mid 60's (F). I had the back door open and the dogs were running in and out... and in and out. And then around 7 PM they crashed. Tired puppies they were.
I did manage to take this picture of my nectarine blossoms. Nifty, huh?
"Cracker Jack Crazy Christian" made me laugh! You have such a way with words! Haha
ReplyDeleteThe minute you begin to take them seriously they will go for the jugular.
DeleteOh, and those nectarine flowers are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteMore on the way
Deletepretty flowers and tired puppies. remember to take off next saturday (brat day at HD).
ReplyDeleteAll work shops have been cancelled until further notice, besides, by then we should be in Stage 2 at the store: doors closed, only so many allowed in the store at one time... and no browsers.
DeleteThese Faux-Christians will never get it.
ReplyDeleteYou're right, they never will. that would mean they interpreted something wrong.
DeleteThe president is punishing our governor for complaining. It is really maddening.
ReplyDeleteHe tries to punish everyone who calls him a liar.
DeleteThe evangelicals are a pain in my ass. In stead of supporting a raciest pig, being bigots', judgmental and greedy, why don't they try some of that old fashioned Love thy neighbor stuff? There's a idea.
ReplyDelete...Gee, I didn't know you were that intimate with them.
DeleteThey shit away the love along time ago.
