I had to pause for a sec while gardening this morning and I thought to myself, jesus christ 250k Americans died from a pandemic during the last 8 months and no one gives a shit. Despite how low my expectations are for this country, it's just surreal how our lives have changed since March, but in the same time nothing has changed. Shit is just insane, I remember shitposting on the old sub about how all candidates will die except Tulsi, but now everything just feels distant. Being bored and unemployed really opens up more room for just thinking and making sense of how senseless everything is
It's tragic, and the worst part is that it's the new normal. Thousands of people dying every month is fine as long as things keep running more or less the same to benefit the rich.

the fact there’s been no talk of public vigils or flags set at half-mast just blows my mind :/

Who are they, also? It's 1 in 400 Americans now and I didn't know any of them. Which means some folks must have known a lot.
