Ffs, do we have a rant room here? I’ve just come back from Sainsbury’s after a weekly shop & I really don’t want to go out in public again... not because of the corona virus but because I might catch stupid off the general public, there’s barely any pasta left on the shelves, I couldn’t even get a sodding carrier bag because ‘people are panic buying’ *eye rolling emoji*
The other day was my birthday & my mum wouldn’t even kiss or hug me in case we infected each other! *steam coming out of ears emoji*
I know Richie needs the break & I’m not in anyway saying he should be broadcasting but bloody hell, I just want to hear his voice of reason, his high pitched “we’re all gonna die” sarcastic tone and systematically unpicks the mainstream media productions.
I suppose I’m being unfair because the public are being hoodwinked into believing it’s worse than it is but it’s just the f**king flu!
The media are masturbating under their news desks all day long as they churn out the serious tones and banners in red type with ‘EMERGENCY’ and DEADLY on everything.
I’m just frustrated with it, I don’t want to engage in the fear porn but people keep forcing it on me in conversation or the kids discuss it at school or my mum tries desperately to discuss how her holiday in September might be in ruins if the virus gets worse & how she’s got a contingency plan!!!
Then when I try to change the subject I’m accused of denying it, I just don’t want to engage in it! I’m not a fearful person, I don’t live worrying about everything! I’ll worry about it when it’s necessary to.
Anyway now I’ve typed all that I actually feel a little more relieved ... *phew emoji* lol
Sorry bout that just needed to vent ... got no Richie to put it in perspective so we’re flying solo trying to navigate the global games on our own & Jesus, Richie was a tonic!
Miss him a lot. Thought I’d come here & see if anyone else is feeling the same, miss everyone, I don’t do social media so I’m a bit isolated in that sense!
