    I don't really have a take as to whether the US's vaccine rollout is good or not, gonna be all fair. I'm immunocompromised, and even though open season is in just like two weeks nationwide, I was only able to get an appointment by booking one two and a half hours away, at the behest of a friend of mine who lives out there. I'm staying over at her place rn, and I've come to a few conclusions.

    1. Trains still rock (Amtrak'd out)
    2. Being picked up and driven the last 20 minutes or so gave a really revealing image of life in a lot of the rural South. It reminded me of, of all things, was this one half-empty lot in the more suburbian parts at the tip of Queens. The only non-underdeveloped building was a shooting range, which did actually look pretty cool but I'm not gonna mention it (she's :LIB: ). There isn't even a swath of gentrification apartments with ugly water features and shitty windows either--it's just a void. This place has truly been ignored.
    3. The WiFi is very inconsistent so I'll actually be not brainmelting for hours once.
