I can't remember a time in my life where the US has ever looked weaker than it does right now. It's embarrassing.
In a word, Trump...

Yup. It's a shame there aren't more than one of him. It's impossible for one man to cancel out all you pussies and Karens out there making us look bad.

WHO head of emergencies Mike Ryan said the coronavirus pandemic has been severe and affected every corner of the planet. “But this is not necessarily the big one,” he said. “This is a wake-up call. We are learning now how to do things better; science, logistics, training and governance, how to communicate better. But the planet is fragile. We live in an increasingly complex global society. These threats will continue. If there is one thing we need to take from this pandemic, with all of the tragedy and loss, is we need to get our act together. We need to honor those we’ve lost by getting better at what we do every day.”

“The Vastation” - A new short story about a future pandemic that makes COVID-19 look simple.
By Paul Theroux
Dec 29, 2020
A couple of paragraphs:
“Conquest of Mexico,” he said. “Cortés gets all the credit. But the credit should go to another man who landed with him, the poor bastard infected with smallpox. With that nameless, essential man with his fetid breath, Cortés didn’t really need an army. Within a very short time 80 percent of the people in Mexico had died of smallpox. The Aztecs were a pushover, because of this—what?” He turned to me with that face. “Vastation.” His smile was not a smile.
“It was like a miracle. Variola virus.” He seemed to be reminiscing. “An inhaled virus. The Aztecs breathed it, and they died—in the millions. The Spaniards went on to build their own version of hell on earth, but the point is that in the moment of their landing, the vastation promised to purify the land of so much past suffering and oppression.”
