he/she may have been correct.
You know what all of this feels like to me personally?
That I died very suddenly some time ago. I got in an accident or something, and died so quickly that I didn't even know my death was coming.
And now, I'm in hell. It slightly resembles my life when I was alive, but it's actually hell.
Now, I don't believe in hell, but if hell exists, I'm in it. I mean, what would make a more terrifying hell than this. Being in hell and thinking it was your regular life? That would be the sickest hell.
Just listened to Trump rambling on Fox news. My only thought was..."I must be in hell".

(6,460 posts)Everyday I have to tell myself, "I will not break today. One foot in front of the other."
I basically want to survive longer than the Orange Turd. He and Pence probably have it; they're probably just lying about it. We apparently don't need either one of them since they are HOARDING ventilators and masks and doing nothing else. Otherwise, he would have stated,"We just don't have them, but we're working on getting them."
If he needed a bomb or a tank, he would have repurposed our factories to provide tools of war. But, he's just using this plague to manipulate his enemies.
Trump is my enemy. A pox on Trump and his enablers...

(51,567 posts)in the worst pain you ever experienced and getting little help, no visitors and not knowing if you will go home or die and if you lived how would you be able to pay the $1,000 a day hospital bill (that is the bill you are responsible for AFTER your insur has paid their part).
I hope whoever dies comes back and haunts the Hell out of tRump like the ghosts in A Christmas Carol.
DENVERPOPS
(8,790 posts)Except for the vast amount of people who don't have insurance and after they get out of the hospital, like several places in Kansas, they throw them into Jail for not paying their un-surmountable, and gargantuan medical bills......Have you heard about that??????
BigmanPigman
(51,567 posts)Makes me even more glad that I live in a state with the ACA. It still costs me over 25% of my fixed income for insur, out of pocket, etc. Does Kansas have a GOP governor, sounds like it does.
DENVERPOPS
(8,790 posts)And it isn't BS.........Kansas, and several other red states nearby would make wonderful hazardous Material waste depositories as far as I'm concerned. Red states that have incredible power, and no one populating them comparatively. Wyoming, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota come to mind.
BigmanPigman
(51,567 posts)have 2 senators and about 1/100 the population of other states. He is right of course. He likes to use North and South Dakota as an example of how you could make them one big state, Dakota and combine other states.

(10,252 posts)Hell isn't a physical location. It's a mental state. Good new is: You can change what you think. Change your point of view.
Why are you watching Fox? No wonder you're in Hell.
LuckyCharms
(17,414 posts)And to change my point of view would to be ignoring reality. And ignoring reality will get me and others sick.

(10,252 posts)It's about training the mind to overcome disturbing emotions, like fear, anger, hate, confusion. I'm 74 yr, and I've practiced meditation for 40 years.
I see perfectly well what deep do-do we are all in, thanks to Donny Dimwit and evil Republicans, but I remain a happy person. I practice equanimity of not being seduced by desire, nor afflicted with aversion. I have survived an earthquake, 3 hurricanes, a tornado, a total car wreck, heart disease, and breast cancer. I can't change other people and circumstances, I can only change how I react to people and circumstances. Happiness, like Hell, is a state of mind.

Vegas had locusts. Earthquakes hit Salt Lake City. Horrendous hurricane in the Caribbean. Now a plague. Next: a nice famine, maybe?
