it showed us just how little we can trust in or rely on our neighbors and our friends.
Oh god. Nope, don't want to remember. I was in the UK in a little village of curtain twitchers. Some cad put up a sign at teh entrance to town that read 'District 9'.
And in Australia, on the coast, the ring of steel went up around Melbourne and everyone else just went surfing and got on with things. Some places fared better than others, maybe in good solid communities that had each others backs before hand, and were less willing to buy into the fear mongering and distrust that was built up into mad frenzy.
I literally said yesterday I wished for another pandemic - it's too crowded here now and we need a thinning out. Of course I was being facetitious. Those were fucking awful, stressful times, especially for those who believed in justice and self governance and freedom. I feel sick thinking about it. THATS why I choose to forget it and turn my sight away from it.
