Over the years I've read a lot of dystopian science fiction, I've watched the movies and I've read the comics. I never dreamt that I would be living the reality in 2021. This morning I was out in the freezing cold queuing to get my first shot of the COVID vaccine, wearing a face mask. I got on buses that were near empty and saw crazy people hanging around central station.
It's fucked. On top of this, Donald fucking Trump continues to be the president of the united states of america, at least for the next couple of weeks and he basically incited an attempted coup that involved the storming of the capitol building in Washington D.C. by a bunch of freaks including fucking Ariel Pink. In the UK we have an evil Tory government with Boris Johnston as out prime minister and cunts like Jacob Rees Mogg causing as much badshit as they can.
10,000 people in the UK have died with COVID-19 since Christmas leading to a grand total of 80,000 deaths related to a new disease in under a year. Shit is majorly fucked up.
I miss my dad and some of my friends who are dead but in a way I'm glad they don't have to live through this shit. I'm ok, I have a comfortable middle class existence but Scotland right now is fifty shades of bleak thanks to idiots voting for things like Brexit and the Tory party.
I hope the vaccine works at least a bit. Not sure if anything will fix the damage to the UK after Brexit and COVID. Hoping for Scottish independence but suspect that is unlikely.
