.... things are weird, so weird its hard to put into words. I doubt many know.... i had to find news from Australia to see what was happening in Wales xxxx

Shopping lists sanctioned items .... family members thinking buying cards will kill them (genuinely) Another screaming at me because they can't understand how im alive whilst talking to me on the phone..... the irony was lost.

Black plague... no border. Roman empire invasion.... no border. Covid... sure (its rural... litterly sheep and the odd person crosses to get to the shop for food).

Graffiti in the streets, university 'fences' for no "mixing' because students are super-spreaders, primary school 'enforcement officers' advertised before covid, army in the streets... you wont hear it anywhere tho.

*family said all young people should be locked up because they are super spreaders and will kill everyone otherwise. *yet im alive..seriously wish they got irony.

Its not just you finding things weird and your not alone in thinking it, dont be driven mad with fear, stay strong, stay united, stay free, liberty is important. Xxx

Fear is not good for anyone, just be sensible and follow infection control. X

We stand together, we always have.... during this time you are not alone xxxx

Whoever needs to hear this its here. Its not just you, we are in this together. Xxxx

* i wanted to put this up for anyone else who is having issues with family and friends being scared senseless .... im happy to change any wording admin requests x (wasn't sure how to put it)

slaveMikayla(sub female){MstrJ } - It's well done. I see no reason this needs to be altered. Yes, fear is real. Yes, illness is real. Yet there is a severe disconnect between the two. I live in a place where it has become the norm for the army to be on the streets. I remember the first time I saw a tank on the road, and soldiers patrolling with automatic weapons... I wept. I said once they came on the streets they would never leave. That was 9 years ago. They have not left. I've become acclimated to it. Still, seeing it in the West would be a whole other level of reality that I'm not prepared for. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Seeing the university fences was shocking to me as well.
I know this time * waves hands encompassingly* will be written in history. I feel like our lives will be defined by " before the pandemic" and " after the pandemic" much like " before the war" and " after the war" or " before the industrial revolution" and " after the great depression" etc.
I can not yet see or fathom all of the lasting changes to our world that will come as a result, but it does make me concerned.

I remember CLEARLY, and will always do, the night that I called my ex Daddy shaking and crying and asked "so is this IT for our generation? Are we DONE now? We are never going to come out from the financial ramifications of what is going on now.... this is going to make the Great Deoression look like a cake walk!" I still dont think I was wrong. I hope I was, but that thought was back in April...

No, you are not alone.
