This is so damned weird!

Everyone in the whole world, right now, is in lockdown while a terrifying invisible monster roams every street of every town in the world. It waits patiently until someone gets too close then lashes out and takes them.

We are living in a Stephen King novel.

Mr. King, if you can hear me, write us a happy ending for once, won't ya? Please???

We went out to dinner thinking the restaurant would be empty, which it was, but the bar area was shoulder to shoulder people having a grand old time.

Party like it's 1999.

Kingsman: The Golden Circle.

You have someone spreading a deadly virus and then withholding the cure for personal and political reasons.

No fans in the stands anywhere in the stadium. It was so fucking eerie. I hope we can return to normalcy sometime soon.
