We’ve talked about homeschool, and the only reason she’s still in school is because of the gifted/STEM program… there’s no homeschool coops around here that offer anything that can compare with that, and I certainly can’t do it… I’m an artsy, musical type and she wants to be an engineer or architect.

She’s going to start college level classes next year… she’s been looking forward to that since she heard about the program a couple years ago.

It might end up being an option with the younger one though.

There’s no reason to even subject her to a test or add to their numbers they use to promote the fear.

She had to get tested for surgery last year and said she will never do that again.

If people without symptoms would STOP getting tested, this would go away.

Fun fact - when I apply a new sensor for my CGM (continuous glucose monitor), the only warning that pops up every time is that I should not take extra or consume large amounts of Vitamin C while using a CGM.

I’ve never gotten an explanation so I largely just ignore it. I figure if it’s important enough someone would be able to explain to me WHY it’s important.

I’ve played the flute for more than 30 years, and for many years in church.

Most of the old hymns I can play from memory, and when we can’t get to churches and pianos any more, I will still have my flute and I will still play for anyone who wants to listen.

I saw the 2nd plane hit while I was getting ready for work. Drove to the office sobbing the whole way. The old veteran was the first person I saw and he tried to comfort me. We debated about whether to stay or go home. We all huddled around computers and TVs looking for news… one girl asked me to take her to pick up her kid from school and take them home, so I did. The old vet, George, called to check on me, several times. He knew I didn’t have family there, and my boyfriend (I moved to be with him) was out of town. He was my lifeline… he told me what was probably happening to keep us safe, reminded me that once I was out of the city I was probably safe. Offered to come sit with me. I thought he was rude and a dick most of the time but that day, the rest of the week, he was my rock. Not sure why he picked me but I was grateful. Everyone in the office was nicer, but he became my buddy after that, until the day I left.

I called my parents, 1200 miles away and asked them to help me move back home because nothing felt safe any more. It took a little over a month to make the arrangements but I broke it off with the guy I moved for, packed a trailer with all my stuff and drove across the country. Lived with my parents for about 6 months and then moved into the house where I am now.

Purely anecdotal evidence: 3 years in a row, for different reasons, 2 or 3 people of my 4 person family got the flu shot.

For those 3 years, whoever got the shot ended up very sick with he flu. Almost put one of my kids in the hospital… it was BAD.

Whoever didn’t get the shot was fine. 3 years in a row. None of us have gotten the flu shot since then.

I am willing to die on this hill to keep my children from being forced to take this.

I am actively trying to keep my family from getting any boosters and trying to fix some of the damage the vaccine did.

I feel like I am fighting alone right now, this is where I come for strength to keep fighting.

If you get tested and come back positive, you can be retested. If you come back positive again, that’s 2 positive cases for the fear numbers. If you take 6 tests to get the negative test you need to go back to work, you are counted as 5 positive cases. And you were never even sick.

This is all absolute bullshit. Do not comply. Don’t give them ammo to create more fear.

I have to inject insulin every day, but other than that I’m with you. No more shots.

When do we stand up and fight?? You can look back through my account, I don’t glow, but when is enough ENOUGH???

What if he mandates it for all of our kids to stay in school? To go into a store?

Why are we not in the streets protesting every damn day at this point?

I’ve been a mess since psakis statement yesterday…. I really feel alone. Why is everyone complying???? Am I going to lose everyone to this poison?? Are my kids going to have to give up everything so I can keep them in my sight to make sure they don’t vaxx them without my permission? What the fuck kind of life is that for anyone??

Where is the line?? Isn’t this it??

Hopefully go to the school board meeting and let them know that it’s unacceptable and then vote out the entire school board and replace with decent human beings, not deep state demons.

No. They’ll still prosecute for truancy. And probably change the rules to make homeschooling almost impossible.

Screw that. Parents need to revolt.

My MIL beat cancer 2 years ago. Got the vaxx in March, now has cancer in her lungs, brain and blood. They just called in hospice.

And I’m crazy because I think the vax caused it.

What will it take to get them there? Because I’m sure pissed off enough!

I just had to tell my kids that ultimately what they do is up to them, but I fully expect to be in jail or a re-education camp eventually. And then what is the point in fighting because they’ll take my kids and vaccinate them anyway??

I feel completely alone… my whole family, Except my kids and me are vaccinated. Sometimes my husband agrees with me, most of the time he sides with my family that I’m a crazy conspiracy theorist and I should just comply.

I HATE this!!!

Honesty? I hope so. I hope we all revolt and absolutely do not comply.

I’m willing to fight. I hope everyone else in the community can sack up and fight with me.

The 2 things that stood out… CDC controls lockdowns (“decides which businesses can open”) and mask mandates.

I can’t stress how strongly I feel about this right now….. FUCK BIDEN. Fuck him sideways. With a flaming cactus. Metaphorically of course. Not advocating real violence but…. Fuck him. And his whole commie administration.

I know we don’t have to comply, and I won’t, but Inhate that this is going to affect my kids and everyone else’s kids who are just starting to recover and be normal from the previous lockdowns.

A lot of schools are feeding into it as well by trying to force kids to have a negative test before they can come back to school. Parents at our school have been fighting that, saying that if kids have been quarantined for 10 days and have no symptoms, there is no reason to be tested.

It’s just insanity at this point. Fighting it is getting exhausting, being called a crazy, selfish, uncaring, stupid conspiracy theorist is getting exhausting. But I refuse to give up. This has to end at some point.

Right? And heaven forbid you have allergies!! “You think it’s just allergies? Doctors say you need to test to be sure!”

No, I don’t need to test. It’s allergies. I’ve had them for 44 years. You see that yellow stuff out there? It’s called ragweed and my body thinks it’s poison so it tries to kill me by making me cough and makes my nose run and my eyes swell shut. In addition to the normal pollen allergies, it makes this time of year miserable. Every. Year. 44 times now. I promise it’s allergies.

And surprise!! There’s a genetic component! My grandfather had the same thing and took shots for it. My kids have it. We all take 3 different kinds of meds this time of year, and eat local, raw honey - which actually seems to help some if anyone else suffers too. And saline rinses and eye drops.

They still have a runny nose and itchy eyes. If I kept them home when they had “a symptom” I would keep them home the last week of August and the entire month of September! And then I’d go to jail because they’re not in school.

Sorry for the rant. All this COVID BS is getting to me. Allergies make us miserable enough, but the pressure to get tested and the calls from the nurse are pissing me off. It’s stupid. 44 years of the same symptoms at the same time, but it’s suddenly COVID?

Our school just sent out a message that they called a “special meeting” for Thursday night and are trying to hide the agenda to keep parents from showing up.

It’s not working. Many of us are going. And more are planning to post the stream everywhere.

Our superintendent is somewhat liberal, and we have 1 raging liberal on the board. I’m hoping the rest stand up for the kids, if not they’ll be gone in November.

Ours called a “special meeting” for Thursday night…. Parents are going to fight for our kids, although we only have 1 raging liberal on the board.

I’ll post the link when it goes up if there’s any interest.
