The expendable state!

Dear you,

Welcome to Florida, the official kill zone, host to this dude:


Ah, he needs a vacation (insert pouty face emoji).  He is here to spend money (insert patronizing tipper emoji).  Bless his heart.  But we have hearts here too.

How about Walmart Carol?  I met her yesterday as I shopped for essentials.  She appeared to be about 80 years old and clearly sweltering behind her mask.  Delusional and exhausted after handling a surge of  tourists demanding the Size XXX  "GIVE ME ALCOHOL OR GIVE ME DEATH" t-shirt, Carol did not know what a lint roller was. "I don't know what that is . . . I don't know where they are . . . I am confused." I left Carol alone and suggested she take a break.  Bless HER heart.

How about waitress Kary?  Employed at a local "upscale" 30A restaurant, she has been working doubles for days.  Suffocating behind her mask, she developed a lung infection.  I know this young woman.  I asked her if she was taking time off to heal.  Her answer:  "I can't.  We're understaffed and slammed."  I suggested she tell the manager and owners to tie on aprons and get their hands dirty instead of pressuring exhausted (and ill) waitrons like Kary to suck it up.  Bless HER heart.

How about the workers and locals in Jacksonville and Miami?! North Carolina says no to the Republican convention crowd scene?  Come on down to Jacksonville!
Michigan (the University) won't host a presidential debate due to Covid concerns?  Come on down to Miami! Those hotel workers, valets, servers, condo cleaners, etc. are expendable, apparently.  Bless THEIR hearts. 

This is so fucked up.

And it is only June 23.

Hang on Floridians, INCOMING!

Love,
Joyce

  1. People here were complaining about "LAST-achusetts" because things are so slow to open. But now we have the lowest infection rate in the country. Believe Science! And bless your hearts.
