… Naomi Davis… and Clea Shearer…, a couple of plucky gals who aren’t going to let a little thing like a GLOBAL PANDEMIC stop them from doing something BREATHTAKINGLY FUCKING STUPID, (yes, I’m SWEARING and SHOUTING) like getting into their big rigs and heading out on the open road in search of … well, in search of more communities to infect.
Clea, accompanied by hubs, his mum, and their two kids are going from California to Nashville.
Naomi accompanied by hubs and five children, all shining bright with that true frontier spirit, are already on their way from New York to somewhere west.
Here’s the article that inspired me to make this award, and after reading, I’m sure you’ll all agree they are truly worthy recipients of this particular award. (there are, of course, many other types of ‘what-the-fuckery’ awards and recipients to be had during this time)
The article has live links and screen shots of their social media posts in case you think I’ve finally been taken over by the Twilight Zone.
Apart from the incredibly valid concerns mentioned in the article, there are a few more than haven’t been considered.
Emptying out the grey and black-water tanks. (that’s waste water, from the sink and shower – grey, and toilet – black) The corona virus has been demonstrably proven to exist in feces, (poop) so I don’t care how big your tanks are, with that many people pooping and showering and washing dishes, you’re going to need to empty them with alarming regularity.
Believe me, no matter how clean the facilities are, no matter how careful you are, you are guaranteed at least one splash. Even if you aren’t carrying the virus in your innards, you have no idea who was emptying their tanks, and had their singular ‘splash’ before you, or what they were carrying in their innards.
The corona virus has been demonstrably proven to remain airborne for up to 3 hours. (because the virus itself if really, really, really tiny) It has been demonstrably proven to remain on surfaces for hours to days, depending on the surface.
(Dr John Campbell has all the proofs to back up the ‘demonstrably-s’ I’ve mentioned, scattered throughout the last few weeks of his videos, usually from various global CDC’s and medical journals, scientific papers, etc)
Plus, the nomad community, although gaining more and more acceptability is still seen by many to be the lifestyle of those ‘unfortunates’ who can’t or won’t get a mortgage and live in a ‘real’ house, and can’t or won’t get a ‘real’ job … so when this finally blows up in these idiots faces, and it will, the fallout won’t be just on them.
But they’re not considering the true impact of the consequences of their actions on others, are they?
Funnily enough, when you think about it, that’s how this whole mess started in the first place.

It’s not that there aren’t other people out there doing reprehensible things like this, it’s just that out of an abundance of common sense, Mrs Widds and I have cancelled our ‘Wunder-Lusters’ plans for this year, and these reprehensibly arrogant fuckwits really got up my nose.
‘Common sense’ because until an antibody test becomes readily available, neither of us will know (unless we actually get sick) if we’ve even be exposed to the virus. (we’re both in the ‘vulnerable’ category. Mrs Widds is a disgustingly healthy 70, and I’m 61 with a compromised immune system) On top of that a viable vaccine won’t be readily available, probably until the end of the year.

In times like these, I am glad I had a good science education which left me in a position to understand a lot of what is going on with the virus and the pandemic. It helps sort things out, and figure out what to believe.
That, though, is apparently UNcommon. People will die because of it – and there’s nothing I can do except self-isolate, wash my hands, and not convey the virus to my face. I’m glad our management has taken this very seriously from the very beginning. Since they run a whole bunch of these retirement communities, it will affect their reputation, too.

Oh, my Goddess; what the hell? They should be forced to go back to their own homes. We’ve had to cancel our holiday this year, it’s sad, but it’s what we have to do. There will be other holidays, other time. Keep safe. xxx

Can I ask for a runner-up award to a guy in a Minneapolis post office (this comes to me via a friend) who was coughing badly and wearing a mask around his neck. When someone asked him to put it on, he refused.

If Karma gets it right they will get really sick!!! Unfortunately Karma’s aim is too often skewed and the innocent pay the price. Up here a woman was fined $$$ for walking in a closed park. Draconian measures are needed.

The reality is that almost all people are following the restrictions. 🙂 … and the more idiots like these get called out about their actions, and fined (although I doubt these two will be stopped and fined) the more such idiots of the world will think twice, if only to avoid the fines.
Still, I wouldn’t be adverse to giving them both a smack to the back of the head, hard, while wearing a full hazmat suit, just to bring the point home!

That is just irresponsible. While regular people limit their social contacts, these people decided to widen them? The opposite of common sense, if you ask me.
