There's more people angered by the job loss and threats of loss of unemployment benefits than there are people scared by the thought of losing everything. These weren't people that lost their jobs over performance or attendance at work, they lost their jobs for no reason other than a group of people made it their agenda to shut everything down.
Unemployment isn't scary, all the effort people put towards their jobs gets turned into bullshit by the same people who want everything shut down. The people who want everything shut down are as much the problem as everybody else.

Despite what the media keeps telling people about there not being mask mandates on public transportation until now, 7 months into the pandemic, there have actually been mask mandates on public transportation since near the beginning of the pandemic for amtrak, and since late June in at least one state on buses and public transportation other than Amtrak. When they get more desperate to try and control people's lives and behavior, they start threatening people again with more of the same guidelines while calling them new.
Really the entity that calls themselves the government wants to get away with locking people down again, but they know that at least a few people will always resist it rather than respect it. The masks are just another distraction.

Actually this describes a kid that isn't from a wealthy family who spends their whole life trying to prove to the world that they were born rich and powerful. Kind of like Napoleon proving he was big and strong or a gangsta rapper trying to prove they are hood muhfuckas.
Carl has had rich kid syndrome since he could talk and walk. He walks like a rich kid, talks like a rich kid, thinks like a rich kid, ah fuck he's a rich kid okay I said it.

Mountains->Foothills-->Piedmont->Sand hills->Beach
The zone between Piedmont/foothills and the beach, home to several military bases and more pine trees than you can count.

Different than calibrating.
I'm trying hard to think of you as a gangster now, I dont want to underestimate you. It's an adjustment, you really were a dork 25 to 30 years ago, but some people believe that people change, and you try and adjust to how their beliefs are impacting everything and everyone around them, as they become their evil alter ego and are no longer who they were growing up any more.

At what point is cheating not cheating, when the teams with the most fans (Dodgers or Yankees) get the titles from all the other teams? Its interesting how the Dodgers haven't started investigating the Nationals (yet), but there's a bandwagon of support for investigating the Astros and Red Sox.
The World Series scandal went from nobody but Dodgers fans and Yankees fans having a problem with the outcome of the last few World Series to everybody wanting people out of the league and losing everything overnight. There's a lot of people who don't give something much thought until everybody else does.
