Today, our esteemed lord Fauci told us that it’s too soon to tell if we will be able to gather in groups for Christmas.

I’m an American & I Am Free!
Yesterday, Joe Stalin – oops, my bad – Joe Biden effectively declared a large percentage of Americans as the enemy when he targeted the unvaccinated as the cause of all of our problems.

Today I Deadlifted 330lbs
I wasn’t going to workout today. I was feeling a bit sluggish due to PMS. I’ve had cramps for several days and I’ve been extremely bloated. The last thing I wanted to do was workout.

Fear-mongering is NOT Leadership

She told me a story about a healthy young woman who came into her clinic this week, and she has five children. The provider asked this healthy woman, “Have you been vaccinated?” The woman replied thatContinue reading “Fear-mongering is NOT Leadership”
Hysteria is a Form of Extremism
It is quite common in mainstream media to see skeptics like me being labeled an extremist.
