🎵Schools close, Tom Hanks, trouble in the big banks,

no vaccine, quarantine, no more toilet paper seen.

Travel ban, Weinstein, panic COVID-19,

This was my reaction. There has always been a revolution brewing among the discontents. Everyone alive realizing they need to be part of it is late to the party, because the party started long before any of us were born.

Yup, but on the other hand as technology progresses the consequences for screwing everything up get more and more severe. If we don't put out this fire soon, we're gonna burn the whole house down.
