We received about 20 inches of snow this week. So……….

8:00 am: I made a snowman.

8:10 - A feminist passed by and asked me why I didn't make a snow woman.

8:15 - So, I made a snow woman.

8:17 - My feminist neighbor complained about the snow woman's voluptuous chest saying it objectified women everywhere.

8:20 - The gay couple living nearby threw a hissy fit and moaned it should have been two snowmen instead.

8:22 - The transgender man / woman / person asked why I didn't just make one snow person with detachable parts.

8:25 - The vegans at the end of the lane complained about the carrot nose, as veggies are food and are not to be used to decorate snow figures.

8:28 - I was being called a racist because the snow person is white.

8:30 - I used food coloring to make the snow person a different color and be more racially inclusive.

8:37 - Then I was accused of using a black face on the snow person.

8:39 - The middle eastern gent across the road demanded the snow woman be completely covered.

8:40 - The police arrived saying someone had been offended.

8:42 - The feminist neighbor complained again that the broomstick of the snow woman needed to be removed because it depicted women in a domestic role.

8:43 - The 'council on equality' officer arrived and threatened me with eviction.

8:45 - TV news crew from ABC showed up. I was asked if I know the difference between snowmen and snow-women? I replied "Snowballs" and am now a sexist.

9:00 - I was on the news as a suspected terrorist, racist, homophobe, and sensibility offender, bent on stirring up trouble during difficult weather.

9:10 - I was asked if I have any accomplices. My children were taken by social services.

9:29 - Far left protesters offended by everything, marched down the street demanding that I be arrested.

9:45 - The boss called and fired me because of the negative association with work that had been all over social media

10:00 - I cry into my drink because all I wanted to do was build a snowman...

Moral: There is no moral to this story. It is what this world has become because of a bunch of snowflakes.

Stephen Petty's @pettypodcast1 remarks to the North Carolina Legislature on the futility of masks as a health intervention. Long but worth reading:

"Regarding the proposed language:
This language is simply nothing more than a power grab in the name of public health and safety with implementation language not based on any real science.
If moved forward, this proposal will be impossible to implement by the public due to incorrect and vague language, will provide no effective mitigation from infectious diseases, and will actually cause great harm to the public based on misleading so-called science. The harms will be greatest to our children.
Some key points regarding the actual science in my 80+ slide presentation and three supporting documents (attached):
-CDC cannot be trusted with the science – (masking – no masks, masks, no masks, masks – no science changes its position 180 degrees twice in two years. The 6-foot distancing rule has no basis in science; Dr. Fauci recently admitted this.
- Face coverings (masks) cannot and do not protect individuals from respiratory diseases - >100 year old science beginning at least in 1919.
Face coverings and respirators in your proposed language have been conflated. Respirators are PPE, face coverings are not – see either CDC or OSHA.
-Masks by definition cannot be sealed; masks that can seal are called respirators.
