Jim Treacher does a nice summary of the changing Covid rules and provides a little rant-style humor at the end.

The Rules Wouldn’t Keep Changing If You Peasants Just Did What You’re Told at That Particular Moment

“…We got some new COVID-19 rules yesterday. They were different than the rules we got the day before that, and I assume they’re different than the rules we’ll get tomorrow.

To recap:

    1. Absolutely do not wear a mask
    2. You must, must, must wear a mask or you’re killing Grandma
    3. Don’t leave the house or you’re killing Grandma
    4. If you can’t avoid leaving the house, stay at least six feet away from any other human being you see or you’re killing Grandma
    5. Wash your hands 20 times a day
    6. Do not touch your face or anything else, ever
    7. Get vaccinated so you don’t have to wear a mask
    8. You have to wear a mask even if you’re vaccinated
    9. When the above rules change, and then change back, and then change back again, shut up about it or you’re a stupid MAGA-head
    10. Don’t forget to vote Democrat!

Finally

“When I said it’s forever, that was true at the time.” Sounds like a country song.

Remember 15 days to slow the spread? Try 15 years.

So now it’s my fault that the Biden administration hasn’t hit its COVID vaccination goal. It’s my fault that Biden is failing. That’s on me. I did the right thing and got vaccinated, and now he wants to punish me for it because some other people didn’t get vaccinated. I’m supposed to start wearing a mask again because somebody somewhere did a study, and some bureaucrat saw it and flew into a panic, and the president of the United States said, “Yeah, yeah, panic, let’s have some more of that!”

And this is supposed to convince unvaccinated people to change their minds, somehow? Biden thinks he’s punishing Private Pyle by making the rest of us do endless push-ups while Pyle stands there eating his donut. Except Pyle doesn’t give a $#!+, and if we throw him a blanket party tonight, we’ll go to jail.

How is this supposed to work? How is putting me back in a mask supposed to convince an unvaccinated person that he needs to get vaccinated so he still has to wear a mask? What is that conversation supposed to sound like?

“Hey, see this mask I’m wearing, even though I’m vaccinated?”

“Yeah.”

“I can’t take it off until you get vaccinated.”

“Okay.”

“Are you going to get vaccinated?”

“No.”

THE END

An unvaccinated guy sees a bunch of vaccinated people wearing masks, and he says, “See? The vaccines don’t work!” This is exactly the wrong message to send. It’s backwards. It’s brainless. It’s Biden…”
