Today's Mood

[bunn]

Oscilating wildly between fury at people declaring we should all 'get over' Covid, stop making such a fuss and accept that deaths happen, and fury at people who cheerfully report their neighbours for imagined lockdown-breaking offences and think that people should be arrested (how??  By whom?)  from travelling more than two miles from their house.

Side order of fury at people who cannot conceive of other human beings walking more than half a mile or so, who therefore assume that other humans who are a few miles from their house are Up To No Good.

It may be time for a social media break. No doubt all these people are a bit tired and fractious, as am I.

The owners of our village pub have had Covid. They don't recommend it. Feels like it's getting closer.  But my Mum has had her first vaccination, so that's something.

I'm trying very hard not to get too cross with people, and also not to be on social media too much (except here, Discord and Tumblr, where I mostly agree with people! Which maybe isn't good for moving beyond the echo chamber but it is good for mental health).

But yes, I expect people are tired, and angry because they're not in control. I know more than once during this I've felt the desire to take my chances with it in exchange for having my life back, but then I remember that it isn't all about me and I need to get a grip. I just keep telling myself it'll be over eventually.

I'm glad your mum has had her first jab though, that's great news!
