PROGRESS REPORT

I have finally used up all my COVID toilet paper Am still finding MASKS in various places The rubber glove supply is slowly waning The alcohol wipes dried up six months ago The foot prints in the supermarket have totally faded I’ve even seen people in the checkout lines talking So much for six degrees of separation Hand shakes are making a comeback While fist and elbow bumps linger

Yeah, and all the lies and scare campaigns and threats to our liberties and livelihoods will never be forgotten. The Faucis of this world who were responsible for the deaths and psychological harm of millions got pardons from President Autopen. 99% of “conspiracy theories” were proven to be true. And they would do it all again.
