Everyone continues to panic over COVID.

The media pretend universal mail-in voting is a great idea.

And Trump does another disastrous interview.

Slash Ben. Now, there is a real gap that

has emerged in reality. It's a rift in the space time continuum. See, there's reality on the one end.

And this reality basically says that COVID's bad. It's risky. You should be careful. Also,

it says that despite reopening in Texas, Arizona, and Florida, and despite the fact that there were increased

hospitalizations and some increased deaths, that that number has started to go down again.

The data suggests that things are not looking bad in places like New York and New Jersey,

that despite increasing cases in Massachusetts, you're not seeing an overwhelming wave of death.

That, in fact, this is a

virus that we are learning how to deal with, that the treatments are getting better, that people are generally being more careful, and that while we should be risk-averse, we should also acknowledge that it's time to get back to something resembling ordinary life. It doesn't mean go into extraordinarily risky circumstances. It doesn't mean don't wear a mask. It does mean that this notion we're going to lock down forever is very silly, right? That would be the

accurate way of putting a reality. Then there's the hair on fire media. There are the politicians. And that is, we are all going to die. You, you personally, are going to die of COVID. Sure, you're 20 years old and you've never had a health issue in your entire life. You will probably die of COVID. Not only you, all of your friends, everyone will probably die of COVID. That is the only rationale I can come up with

for the way that politicians are currently acting. See, here's the thing. People want government

to do all the things. People have this perverse notion that government can save you from all the

bad things that happen in the universe. Now, government does have a role when it comes to global pandemics in ensuring, for

example, that people cannot enter from countries, that the pandemic is extraordinarily

prevalent.
