November 1, 2020
As the title suggests, it's now November 1, 2020 but I am nowhere near the end of posting the headlines up until October 31st's datelines. Over time they just accumulated and accumulated because there was so freaking many of them, that it was near impossible for me to get them all posted in a timely manner. So now I guess I'll be making several more posts over several more days to get caught up on the headlines going up until October 31st. After that date I am no longer keeping track of them unless there's a major occurrence (like say the case to death ratio changes radically for the worse, or a vaccine is finally available, or the whole country or several whole countries are put into strict lockdown). Changes akin to those will cause me to reopen and continue blogging about COVID19. Until or unless that happens I'll just get to the end of the headlines I have and let it be except for the Bill Gates article and maybe a few other fun articles here and there so that the blog isn't totally dormant.
As for what kept me from working on it recently well there's a new toilet, The Old Guard (movie), takeout dinner with son who helped us pick up the new toilet (he has a jeep Cherokee and we have just a car), he stayed for dinner and the movie.
Then today we're dealing with a dachshund that seems to have a problem with a shoulder joint or something like that. It's a sudden new thing, but we don't know what she did to cause it, or if it's even a joint paint and not a rib pain, or something like that. She walks around and all, and climbs the stairs no problem but is hesitant to come down the stairs. All I know is the pain seems to be near her shoulders. We still need to look for a pet bed for our dog so she can sleep downstairs instead of upstairs where she normally sleeps. So tomorrow if we can we want to take her to see the vet.
Plus we've had to go exchange a defective glucose meter my husband had
at the pharmacy, who was obviously still on DST as she was locking the
door just as we got there and we got there an hour before she normally
closes when she's on same time as the rest of us.
So like everyone else, real life sometimes gets in the way of all my best laid plans too....
That being said, I'm now settling in to add as many headlines as I can to try to get caught up as soon as possible. So get comfortable and dig in....
I've always found solace in nature and so that accounts for why I live where I do. Though suburbanization is slowly encroaching on it, so soon there won't be any more of the pristine beauty that drew us to the area. Instead it'll be filled with houses who's front yards will looked like used car lots with the amount of cars the owners have. Like the neighbours across the street from us. There's 2 people there but they have 3 cars. They have 3 garage spaces for those cars, but do they park them in them? Nooooo instead they have to park them all out front in our faces destroying the beauty of the area - because now instead of seeing grass and water we see ugly cars and water. The person who used to live there always had their vehicles parked in the garages so there was never a problem. It was a beautiful scenery here, as the houses blended in with the scenery. Now we have his ugly mansion and his used car lot blighting the beauty of the landscape. It's enough to make us want to sell our house and move somewhere nicer. Though I will miss some of our neighbours if we choose to go that route.
Gawd, I hope not. I'm already to the point where I detest wearing masks. Being asthmatic, I sometimes have a hard time to breath with one on and at those times I just want to rip the mask off my face, but don't because I know the backlash I'll get from all the sanctimonious idiots who believe all the hyperbole from the media, hook, line and sinker and believe they'll die the moment I remove my mask because they've been brainwashed to believe that.
Coronavirus updates: Wisconsin, Dakotas scramble for hospital beds; COVID outbreak kills nearly 8K minks at Utah farms; 212K US deaths That's sad that it's that lethal for mink considering they're such cute little creatures. It's equally sad that that many Americans have lost their lives to it too. Or for that matter than anyone loses their life to this disease, especially it could've been controlled and stamped out basically at the very beginning if the leaders and head honcho witch doctors weren't so gung ho to let it into all their countries "just to see what happens" (I bet that was one of the main ideas on why they let it in, as in an experiment - a real live pandemic that they could use to experiment on - mostly social, economic and psychological behaviours and problems). Because honestly most of those nitwits are too blind to even see to the ends of their noses, nevermind what could happen as a result of........ (fill in the blank which ever way you want as there's plenty of ways this pandemic has affected us, our society, our economy, etc...). They probably thought whatever affects it might have they'd be minimal with minimal impact, but just enough to be able to study them. Or at least that's what they'll tell us if we ever ask such a pointed question.
I suppose this was to be expected, considering everything else has been cancelled, shutdown or postponed indefinitely.
‘Schitt’s Creek’ Actor Sarah Levy Cast in COVID-Inspired Indie ‘Distancing Socially’ (EXCLUSIVE) It's not as if we're not already immersed in this nightmare, so I don't see why we need shows to add to it.
The riskiest activities during COVID-19 I'll save you time and make it short & sweet, because it's basically the truth. Anything that brings you pleasure, fun, happiness or makes you feel loved is forbidden. It's as simple as that.
I wasn't even aware they could get into the Atlantic Bubble, if they drove there. And forgive me for asking, but how else are they moving there if not via road or railroad? Unless they're gazillionaires and can afford to fly all their belongings there. So how are they managing to move there if the minute they approach the NB they're forbidden entry?
Zoom calls and online shopping: Life on Canadian farms in 2020 Pretty soon we'll have to figure out how to pixelize ourselves so we can live in that virtual world we're creating for ourselves because of this plandemic.
Urgent action needed to prevent 2nd wave of COVID-19 deaths in long-term care: ombudsman Yeah like that's going to happen, because if it was, it would've happened by now or should've anyhow.
Ottawa announces new rent relief program for businesses hit by COVID-19 closures From what I understand no one even knows how to go about applying for this assistance, and for most it's needed TODAY - November 1st.
New, voluntary COVID-19 restrictions in Edmonton as cases spike Didn't you learn from the start back in February when the Chinese travellers came here and we told them to voluntarily isolate and they didn't!?! Don't you understand that asking someone to voluntarily isolate is like asking someone to voluntarily stop eating completely? They won't, even if they could or wanted to.
COVID-19 pandemic reveals major gaps in privacy law, says watchdog I agree even the Telemedicine which is in QC isn't safe from CSIS. At least I know if I went to my doctor's office CSIS wouldn't be listening in there, but now we're forced to share our health problems with others outside our doctor's offices. At the very least CSIS if you're only on the phone, maybe the NSA and one of the other 5 spies (depending on which one it is that's listening to Canadian citizens on behalf of Canada this year). So it's not just the online video conferencing folks who have to worry about breaches of privacy but even those just talking on the phone do too.
COVID-19 vaccination lessons from Canada's largest-ever mass immunization effort Yup I remember that. Our whole family had the H1N1 virus before a vaccine was ever even available in our area. It's probably a good thing we got the virus too, considering the most it did to us was cause us to be foggy headed for a few days, but ever afterwards immune to just about everything else that came afterwards. None of us ever got a cold, or anything after that, except maybe this pesky virus (which we're all pretty sure we had but can't prove) which we also managed to slough off pretty easily too, compared to a lot of others out there.
‘Never had such high demand’: British Columbians keen on flu shots amid COVID-19 We finally got an appointment for our flu shots. I wasn't going to get one, but my husband wants one, so I might as well get one too then. So anyhow we get ours near the end of this month.
China joins WHO-backed vaccine program COVAX rejected by Trump Why? So they can steal the research and samples and run off with that too like they did to the one they were working on with Canada? So in that case Trump was smart not to get involved as those who are involved aren't apt to see any of that research nor vaccine from it, now that China's involved.
25th Amendment: Democrats pitch bill on presidential succession commission, citing Trump's COVID diagnosis It's supposed to go to Pence if Trump is unable to remain as president, and then if Pence can't assume the responsibilities for whatever reason then itchy fingers Pelosi gets the job and I'm sure that's why her panties are all in knots over this because she probably wants to make sure everyone knows her rights to ascension to the throne. She might even be devising ways in her head to get Pence out of the picture so she can just head directly to the throne, which she'd probably pass directly over to Hillary the Witch. I'm sorry but I've been looking at those 2 witches chomping at the bit for the past 4 years and I can very easily see that happening, if Trump weren't able to resume his duties as president. But in retrospect, he has, so, what a shame those 2 conniving witches weren't able to get control.
How convenient. They were not only able to mention the 2nd wave but also prepare for it, et voila a couple of weeks later, one manifests for them.
I think that's pretty much true of all governments and if it isn't you'd have to question "why?". Is it because they have a slower than normal group of citizens - as in brains working a lot slower (and I'm beginning to think that might be the case here in Canada), or are they just a bunch of gutless conformists? Personally, I think it's both here in Canada, considering the QC government went all gestapo on us recently and no one batted an eyelash about it. Like it's perfectly normal and acceptable to have cops waltz into private home parties and break them up because of amount of people (not because of the substances being consumed there or the noise but because of the amount of people). I mean once they got their way there, what's stopping them from taking that one step further later when it seems beneficial to them for some reason or another and then one step further and so on, until everyone is obliged to provide lodging for 1 cop, so he's their in home gestapo boots. And just to make sure you don't get too friendly with your inhome cop, they'll be rotated out every couple of days so you never ever get a chance to know or make friends with them. And those cops won't be posted for your protection.... No no no as that'll distract from their real job and that is keeping you in line. Your protection will continue to rely in after the fact calls to 911 and so on, who'll dispatch a squad car to your house to deal with that problem, while your cop detailed to watch you so you don't break the law, still continues to do that without let up. That's what's coming I think, if we don't revolt en masse.
Anyhow enough of this for one day... More later on until I've reached the end of the headlines current to October 31st.... Until then take care and stay well.
