I’m so sorry Tlex. It’s total shit. Vent away, because it is absolutely ridiculous and unbelievable that it got this bad when government could have acted better at multiple points in the last year. Just learn from your fuck ups governing asses.

Tlex, that is so awful. It's like Groundhog's Day. I'm so sorry. Please vent anytime you need to!

Thanks friends. It’s really surreal and yet all too real. I’d be willing to give up just about every freedom I have if it meant lives were being saved. But instead they’re just imposing measures that cost them nothing, with no evidence they’ll help anyone, and those with less resources suffer more. We’re all in the same storm but on very different boats. I know my boat is a lot safer than others even if it’s lacking in luxuries.

They reversed the decision on playgrounds! Apparently Doug Ford’s (premier, similar to a governor) phone is ringing off the hook from people demanding paid sick days for essential workers and playgrounds. So relieved. My kids were suffering a lot last time playgrounds closed. Now I can direct all my energy to advocating for paid sick leave!

Tlex I follow some Ontario igers and they said probably one of the biggest things they were struggling with was the playground decision.

Ugh. It is awful that they are trying to keep playgrounds closed. Or opened them so late. I want to say in NJ they were open by early summer. Even if nothing else was.
