South of Washington Square Park in Manhattan, a newish building sports these delightful fossils in its sidewalk-level facade. Smile at the security cameras, or salute them with a single digit, and enjoy!

Trump’s klownish klepto-kakistocracy tackles COVID-19: fundamentalist bigot/anti-science idiot Mike Pence, who as Governor of Indiana caused an epidemic by his ignorance and stupidity, and a Big Pharma lobbyist named Azar are fighting over who’s in charge/who’ll take the fall for their master. Trump’s only concern is how a pandemic might affect his re-election. A lot of Republican cattle, fattened to bovine stupidity by Fox and the Kochs, are already eagerly sacrificing their children on his altar, so don’t look to them for help.
But if you want some real grounding in the latest coronavirus, try this.
Backyard and Beyond 
You’ve nailed it.
The idiocy of appointing Pence to deal w/this is mind blowing….
Thanks for your astute observations and commentary. Don’t stop! 🙂
Not an encouraging read. I guess I was looking for advise on how to protect ourselves but instead I got a lesson on the history of world epidemiology. Knowledge is protection to a degree I suppose. Good luck to us all.
