What Putin said yesterday. Or rather, how he looked when he said it. Something’s up with him. He’s changed somehow. He’s always been a monster, but even his eyes look different now. Like he just doesn’t care. He got backed into a corner and started a war to save face. Now I think he knows it’s all going to fall apart, and I really do think he’ll launch missiles out of sheer spite. If he’s going to lose, why not take the world down with him, kinda deal. I wonder if he has a terminal illness? I don’t know, but we’re getting out. If nothing comes of it, well the worst thing is that we paid for 3 weeks in a shabby looking 2 bedroom cabin in the middle of nowhere. I’ll take that gamble.
That money could be much better spent on mental health treatment. Good lord.

I just had a discussion with my cousin tonight about leaving the country and going where we have a second citizenship for a few weeks. We're on the fence.
On the plus side with all of the paranoids allegedly fleeing the area maybe we can start to shed more of the heightened covid restrictions and move more in line with the rest of the country
For real. Please stay wherever you flee too. Your panic is not needed here. I hope you don’t need to venture out of the house for anything. Covington is the complete opposite of DC. Report back how many masks you see. I’m going with zero.
The joke is the anti-mask crowd is the pro-prepper crowd too. They've been waiting for this.
Oh god they forgot to prep masks!
They have gas masks. Because nerve gas isn't going to be stoped by your N95.
That’s fine…because there’s not going to be nerve gas.
Preppers prep for everything. No matter how unlikely.

+1. Come on, people.
I want to know if these people will be mentioning it to their colleagues. Like, oh sorry I couldn’t make it to the Zoom meeting, the internet is pretty spotty out here where we decamped for several weeks because we believe Putin is about to nuke DC.
lol. I was envisioning asking my kids' schools: "could you possibly turn on the Covid cams again because we're sheltering in West Va for the next month in case of nuclear attack"
Didn't they build the last Congressional fallout shelter in West Virginia? Sure it's a good idea given that some of the nukes are probably still targeting that location?

Remember when trump and Kim Jong whoever were beefing and the conversation here was how to build a fall out shelter in your basement? I remember being a kid in fear of Russia and the US starting WWIII. I'm not doing any of that again. If nuclear bombs hit DC, it's over for us the DMV. I'm going to live my life and ignore the news.
