“Fifteen Days To Stop The Spread”
Time flies. It’s been five years since one of the (many) big lies about the pandemic.
We had to fumigate the house for termites, and decided to take the cats up to Cambria for a couple days (their first, and so far, only road trip, which they probably think was some kind of weird dream), so we wouldn’t have to board them.

I wouldn’t say that the town was a ghost town, but it was decidedly weird. When we got back to LA, things just started rapidly deteriorating with all the lunacy from there.

Funny how there are never any Muslim hijab wearing girls in these stories where students are forced to disrobe in America

To me, it screams that school officials know exactly what they are doing when they decide to abuse little girls
The trans student is also a pawn here sadly https://t.co/K4Jpmo9TxN
I love Simone. Being of Pakistani ancestry, she knows whereof she speaks.
