TRUMP, COVID, DEPRESSION, ISOLATION, ZOOM MEETINGS, PHONE CALLS & EMAILS

Well I have to admit that that is one heck of a title. Fortunately my choice of topics is mine and mine alone despite the idiot troll from Guelph who still stupidly thinks that I'm going to change my agenda/topics to suit his wishes. If you haven't seen any/many of his ongoing comments it's because they are generally too stupid and or irrelevant to the article posted to be of any interest to readers of this Blog hence they don't get published. Also of course he is endlessly trying to hide his comments behind pretend names which I will not abide. I do publish Anonymous comments but that's at least up front and readers can attach whatever weight they want to anonymous comments whereas phony names is intentionally deceptive. ..................................................................................................... Trump is almost gone. Hallelujah! At one point in time I believe that millions of people were actually wondering if a blatant, self-serving liar who literally makes up whatever "facts" he wants was going to get his comeupance. Recent public shaming may have gone a little too far with Les Armstrong of Wilmot Township however Mr. Armstrong's influence is of miniscule proportions to that of Mr. Trump. The more important the person, the more important that they speak truth to the millions of people listening to them. Trump squandered and abused that whether by stupidity, mental illness, personality disorders or whatever. He needed to be reined in and confronted by all around him, yet quoting former Governor Schwartzenegger, "spineless" Republican colleagues failed to do so. Instead some enabled and enhanced his constant lying and bull.hit. ........................................................................................................... Covid of course has and is leading to depression and isolation. A family member by marriage has recently departed partly based upon a medical dignosis and possibly also due to the effects of nearly a year of Covid, combined with health issues and topped with a serious personal health problem. My limited advice to all is to use your phones, e-mail, snail mail, zoom meetings etc. regularly to help combat depression. Oh and subject to sidewalk ice conditions and personal mobility, walking is a great way to stay in touch with your neighbours
