Another point of view

Fierce Planet Posted on July 23, 2021 by jnfrJuly 23, 2021

The patience and empathy of healthcare workers, as expressed in the post just below, is one response to the idiots who remain unvaccinated and who will therefore, with great certainty, end up with COVID and likely become quite ill. But my own feelings are much closer to those expressed in this blog post by The Rude Pundit. Why We’re So Fucking Angry at the Unvaccinated …We’re furious. We’re furious at adults who made adult decisions that fucked it all up. We’re furious that, after all the shit they’ve done to fuck up this country by voting for Trump, they won’t … Continue reading →

Get your shots

Fierce Planet Posted on April 19, 2021 by jnfrApril 19, 2021

As of today, vaccines across the U.S. are available to everyone 16 and older. This is a remarkable thing. I have to tell you I did not expect to reach this stage until mid- to late summer. And I am so happy to be here. It may still take a while to get an appointment, but we are quickly reaching the time where there is as much or more vaccine than people who need it. So please, find your state’s information about how to sign up, check your local pharmacies, read up online or even make an actual phone call … Continue reading →

For me, 50 weeks today

Fierce Planet Posted on March 2, 2021 by jnfrMarch 11, 2021

That’s how long our house has kept itself in quarantine so far. And today I got my first shot of the Moderna vaccine here in Colorado. Mr. J isn’t eligible yet, so we’ll keep ourselves in quarantine until we both have as full immunity as we can get. Guess who else got her shot today? Dolly Parton. Dolly gets a dose of her own medicine. @VUMChealth pic.twitter.com/38kJrDzLqC — Dolly Parton (@DollyParton) March 2, 2021 She is such a lovely person and I can’t thank her enough for helping to fund the vaccine I received today.
