Hey, after dealing with the 'water bugs' in New Hampshire those things look tame. Consider these specs:
Armored
Around 2 inches long
Flies
Swims
Causes bites to swell up
Oh, if a truck rolls over it you just make it mad and stick it in the asphalt.

I took entomology with someone in college who caught one when VERY drunk. The normal insect killing jar did not even phase it.

Got me thinking.

10 Plagues of Egypt. 7 Plagues in Revelations. And our current mess. I take some metaphorical liberties with interpreting them... like:
'Blood' is a metaphor for 'mortally wounded by greed', 'Darkness' is a metaphor for 'ignorance, deception, deceit', 'first born' can mean 'in general' not 'of siblings'.

So let's start checking them off...
  • OCEANS TURN TO BLOOD (r2, e1): Overfished oceans, mass extinctions, BP oil spill, micro-plastics, mercury ...
  • RIVERS & SPRINGS TURN TO BLOOD (r3): fracking poisoned aquifers, corporate pollution, Flint MI, ... the privatization of potable water ...
  • DISEASE (boils/sores/etc) (r1, e6): cancer, covid-19, herpes outbreaks & other STDs
  • BUGS (lice/gnats/flies/pests/locusts/...) (e3, e4, e8): bedbugs, killer bees, malaria/mosquitoes expanding north, killer hornets, ticks with lyme's ...
  • FOOD PROBLEMS (e5): mad cow, salmonella outbreaks, covid-19 infected meat packers, additives & steroids
  • EXTREME WEATHER (drought/heatwaves/wildfires/haboobs/earthquakes) (r4, r6, r7, e7, e9)
  • DARKNESS (r5, e9): the dominance of the culture of ignorance in our news cycle/media/leadership.
  • DEATH OF THE BORN FIRSTS (e10): (covid19)
Which leaves one and only one left unaccounted for....

Behold, the ultimate herald of the apocalypse!!!!

FROGS!!

Thanks.

I found the full report very interesting -- it doesn't seem to be business owners or workers wanting to re-open.

Perhaps some governors want the taxes. McConnell, et al., have refused to aid local governments, so somehow they need to pay police, teachers, firemen, that sort of necessary thing. Idle speculation.

I'm guessing that was ghost-tweeted for him, maybe by his in-house Evangeloony:

It sounds as if he's telling himself a comforting children's bedtime story ... you expect it to end "and everyone clapped and cheered clever Donald for curing the virus with sunshine and bleach, and gave him a double Nobel Prize for medicine and for being a genius, and paid the Trump Organisation to build a huge golden statue of him, higher than the Statue of Liberty, and they all lived happily ever after".

Perhaps, but it's an American Exceptionalism one, and the quasi-Bible-story tone says Dominionism to me. Hm, maybe Pence wrote it.

I watched a show on Science channel the other day which showed how some rivers and lakes have had horrible red algae outbreaks, effectively making them appear to be Biblical Red. (Is that a new fashion color?)

Meet Lacy Johnson, GOP candidate and competitor for the congressional district of Ilhan Omar. Is he is going to succeed? Well, we will see, Omar's district has been Democrat since 1963 but then again Omar might have been a little bit too extreme for many in the last few years to continue.

Oh, I'm sure the Republican party is going to go extremely hard at funding this man's campaign as Omar is a large thorn in their side. The fact does remain that this particular district is highly unlikely to go for ANY Republican. He does have a strength of being from N. Mpls, but he has no experience, at all, just ideas that he wants to test out on the population at large.

Upon reading what he has to say here, he is in the wrong party, but then he does have the typical words that they mouth about self-sufficiency, bootstraps and so on.

Q&A With Lacy Johnson, A Republican Challenging Ilhan Omar

LJ: The number one priority is that people are suffering and poor. And they are habitually suffering and poor. So that’s my number one priority, and once again I mentioned things like families, and education, and economics. I know there are issues with crime and violence. And in my district there’s a terrible issue with sexual assault, drug issues, lack of economics, lack of education, and those types of things.
