One thing people never count on is all the stuff your taxes pay for, that you end up paying for in other ways. Things like trash collection, sewer, water, library services, snow plows, etc. You move away and either you pay yourself or you do without.

They're actually assessing how much of an outcry there'll be, so they know how sharp the inevitable slap on the wrist should look.

I still mask up when I go into stores or offices or whatever. Got all my boosters, too.

I can see where that's gonna be hard. You might try local harvest.org , though that's less helpful than it used to be - I think something happened during the pandemic and they stopped double-checking the listings were still good each year, but it's the last site I had for finding good CSAs.

It's possible Trump will win again. And even if he doesn't, he's not the only threat. There's so the emboldened MAGAts, a resurgent white nationalist / neo-Nazi / christofascist movement being weaponized, an unapologetically corrupt Supreme Court, a Republican party that's too scared of their own voters to do their job, a heavily militarized and intolerant police force, and plans to forcibly re-make the country with the next Republican president.
