For some of the younger people that have dealth with it, they are enduring months of lingering problems that are no laughing matter. thinks he is immune, but then, I have my doubts that he was that seriously ill. I think a lot of this is just bad acting.

We will see in the next few weeks with having his political rallys. These are among the very few live participation events going on in the world, so everyone's eyes are on them. If people don't get sick, great. But why risk attending an event like that?

This goes hand in hand with something The Husband and I were just talking about -- live streaming music concerts. I am a total live music addict and I miss being able to go out to the venues every night for my fix. We just don't have that many shows here in Finland, plus we are way out in the sticks. Some of the artists got smart and did live streams where you can buy tickets and get certain perks like behind the scenes footage. It has been awesome, and we try to catch every one we can both from here in Finland and from Texas. I can appreciate the difference in the energy levels between live and streamed, but... it doesn't spread the virus, it lets the artist earn some money, and we get front row seats plus no travel.

Why in this age is anyone insisting on doing full-on live rallys???

I like live streams. Have been checking out special movie events and other shows all through virtual world. I like to be comfortable at home so sitting around in my jammies having a cold one watching a wide screen is not so bad. lol.

Here is an example of fun shows available online.

is another. Im a fan of Alan Moore from the Watchmen comics. He actually performs in this movie.

If you have any good links post them up.

Common sense as to prevail. However, the world is short on supply at the moment. The idiots spewing constitutional rights violations that masks present are just one of many examples.
