Thanks buddy - hanging in there! GF and I are still together. Been a bumpy ride and it was touch-and-go for a bit but things are trending in the right direction for now. Hopefully it stays that way but still work to do. Also, give me that fucking vaccine already!
She actually ended up not going because her brother and his girlfriend out there had a Covid scare two days before she was flying out. She had really been looking forward to it so that sent her into a bit of spiral, which I get. I think if we can just make it to the spring when the weather is warmer, there's more to do outside, and hopefully the Covid numbers continue to go down and we can get vaccinated things will be consideraly better.

I had this one lady that used to be on my team at work and then switched over to someone else when my job role changed a few months back that I've worked with for years, big time Trumper and an overall loudmouth lady that a LOT of other coworkers complain about pretty often. I've gotten used to it since I've worked with her a long time but the manager she reports to now has reached out to me several times to be like "how the fuck did you deal with this lady for so long?". He mentioned she was telling her she doesn't believe in masks, thinks that the COVID safety guidelines are bullshit, you know, the usual moronic Trump shit. Guess who got COVID and has been sick for a couple of weeks?
Just gets worse for Cuomo. https://www.yahoo.com/news/ron-kim-york-democrat-whos-190737150.html I often said that I wanted to see him vs Trump in 2020 but that was obviously me being lured in the drama by the Donald. Thinking about it...they are the same kind of guy. I believe Cuomo is a better person but he’s clearly a bully too. Won’t be impeached but doubt he’ll have much more of a career.
Yeah, I’ll be honest, I don’t know much of what’s going on with this other than they basically fudged the numbers? Regardless, everyone in government needs to be held accountable if they’ve done something wrong.
Pretty disappointing to hear this about Cuomo. I thought he was really impressive during the first few months of the pandemic. It needs to be investigated and he should be held accountable, depending on what is found. That's one major difference between Dems and the GQP. No accountability on the right.
This was also proven to be true when Franken was forced to resign. I’m still sick about it but he’s full of character and knows what’s best for the party/country. I may have said this but the Cuomo situation reminds me of the movie Insomnia (Al Pacino planting evidence on a serial killer) and in this case he hid the information as to not give Trump a bullshit talking point. For that, I agree with him but you just can’t play those games. Look where it got Trump.
