I'm doing my own research on the disease. Not that I'm scholastically or intellectually able to grasp microbiology or have any concept of epidemiology other than this YouTube channel that tells me things that make me feel safe, but I'll be damned if I let some college kid tell me what's real and what's not.

Some might say it's cutting off my nose to spite my face, but jokes on them, I already had my nose removed due to a fungal infection I got from using shoe polish and mayonnaise as a cure for warts my cousin told me he heard worked. Real shame about losing my cousin a few years back, never did find out the real reason for it, hospital would only say it was COVID to cover up for whatever it really was.

What's important to me, poor, uneducated and with no control over my life or outcomes in a world around me is that someone gives me an outlet for all my frustration, and if I'm lucky I get to watch them suffer. It's all I've got.
