Introspection During Isolation

G’day, bitchez.  By my reckoning, today is day 21 of the national lockdown imposed as a direct result of the coronavirus global pandemic.  Of course, those of us who have been following a certain anonymous letter of the alphabet, otherwise referred to by the liberal loon MSM as a “far right conspiracy,” have our thoughts as to what is really going on.  For instance, I have to wonder whether CV is part of The Plan or is it merely cover for what is currently happening deep underground?   I’m not here to talk about politics so we’ll find out soon enough, patriots. I wanted to check in and talk about what I’ve been up to since the quarantine.

Since I ordinarily work from home, anyway, it’s SOP for me to sit at my desk in my home office staring at 3 monitors for up to 12 hours/day.  I’m a lot more productive because the only way I get paid is based on my quantitative and qualitative output versus the rest of you slugs who get paid based on how many hours your ass is glued to the chair in your employer’s office.  But lately, AB5, or what I like to refer to as the Lorena virus, is currently burning through the California economy because it doesn’t just adversely affect residents of that socialist shit hole.  For anyone dealing with independent contractors, AB5 is more virulent and destructive than Covid.  I won’t get into further explanation as you can do that on your own.  Just check out the AB5 Stories found here.

Since work has been paused, I’ve been spending my time constructively with various online learning endeavors.  I just enrolled in Coursera’s Geographic Information Systems (GIS) specialization.  For those who don’t know, GIS is a framework for gathering, managing and analyzing data.  It’s rooted in the science of geography and integrates many species of data.  GIS analyzes spatial location and organizes layers of information into visualizations using maps and 3D scenes.  With this unique capability, GIS can help reveal deeper insights into data, such as patterns, relationships, and situations thereby helping users make smarter decisions.  The most prominent example of GIS usage is found here.

And for shits & gigs, I also took a corona virus awareness course offered for free by CEU Institute.  It consists of 10 short videos followed by a quick quiz and is well worth your time as it covers planning, preparation and business continuity.  You can get yours here.

Covid essentially caught the world with its pants down around the ankles popping a squat like Butch did when he sneaked into his apartment while Vincent was on the toilet.  And but for President Trump’s outstanding leadership, the ensuring chaos & confusion may very well have destroyed the United States. Can you visualize the bedlam under Barry? This is what nightmares are made of.

Remember H1N1 swine flu–Hussein waited until millions were infected and a thousand were dead before declaring a national emergency and there was nary a word from either the MSM, Nazi Pelosi, Chuckie, creepy sleepy Joe or Schiff for brains about any of it.   Now all of them want to oversee Trump and convince the sheep that he needs to respect the authoritar of the same hemorrhoids who have perpetrated Russian collusion delusion I & II, impeachment scam, Ukrainegate and fartgate all while in the middle of a global fecking pandemic requiring immediate and decisive action.  You keep waiting for that, Nazi Pelosi–go pour yourself another vodka & vodka while you wait.

Call me crazy, but frankly, I expect the economy to open back up by Easter.  In the meantime, many orgs have stepped up and are offering free courses to keep you busy.  Check out Udemy and Coursera for starters because there will never be another time in history when the government pays you to sit home on your ass.  And if you’re not the book-learnin’ type, you can always stream 3 seasons of Ozark.

If you need a daily dose of PoB, be sure to follow me on Twatter.  I usually post there daily.
