I predict that starting tomorrow I'll be able to watch a TV program without it being continually interrupted with political ads. I'm frozen2018 and I approve this comment.

I saw some of the business owners painted "We Support BLM" on the plywood. It shows how fearful they are of white supremacists and Proud Boy types when the rioters show up to burn the place down.

I wonder why so few experts are recommending something as simple as taking vitamin D? It's possible there's not much money to be made with vitamin D, but it does help one's immune system. A couple of good walks a day, a mask, stay away from crowds, and vitamin D. Pretty basic.

Most years I don't get many kids at my house. I think its because my staircase is too steep and long but I'd always get a few. This year, because of the panic, I left my treats in a big pot by the sidewalk with a sign that says, "Help yourself! Leave some for others, please." The pot is filled with snack size Hershey's, Kit-Kat, and Snickers bars. There is also a carton of juice boxes next to the pot. So far no kids. At least I tried.
I remember Halloween when I was a youth. Mobs of kids running the streets, bags full of candy, the odd act of minor vandalism. Good times...not that I would know from personal experience. We stayed at home...with the lights turned off...in dead silence. That way no one would come to our door. If someone did come and ring the bell, mom would shush us (like we weren't already being quiet) and wait for them to go away. It was kind of nerve racking. Sometimes we would even abandon our house for the night and flee to a friends house way out in the country where trick of treaters didn't bother coming. We did this and thought it was completely normal. Terrified of little kids in costumes. Good times.

Is it New Zealand? I've been there many times. I used to work about 2,500 miles south of Christchurch.

I live in a country where people did listen.
What country do you live in? Sounds like paradise and I want to visit. It's entirely possible I've already been there.

Where I live we had a great summer. How many people wasted it by sitting indoors binge watching crap on Netflix?

It really is shameless. I rarely watch the national news because it's always so negative. I did happen to watch the opening of the morning national news today. "Record COVID this morning blah, blah, blah." The video that was shown was shot in a hospital. There was a medical team all dressed in the maximum protective gear and they were frantically working to keep the patient alive. They even did a close up of the intubation! The background music was intense and dramatic. I couldn't help but think, "My God! That might happen to me! Orange man bad!!" In reality I know a few people who have actually tested positive for COVID. Only one ended up in the hospital and he is in his 50's, morbidly obese (and I mean morbidly) and diabetic among other ailments. He was hospitalized for a few days and went home. He is back to work now. The rest of the people I know at worst felt kind of lousy for a few days.

Take time to count your blessings. First off, you are YOUNG (oh to be twenty something again), you are educated, you are employed, you are single, you do not have children, you don't own a house, and on and on. You are about as carefree as a person can possibly be. Because you are young you no doubt have a lot of energy. Don't waste it on fretting about a phony religion. You live with your parents? Be thankful for that, but do look for a place of your own. What do you do when you are not working? I hope you don't hang around your parents place with all that negative energy.
Do you like your work? How are your co-workers? Are you friends with any of them? If not, why not? Do you have any hobbies or other interests? Find a club where you can meet people who have the same pursuits. Find a non-profit org that tries to do good and volunteer. Do you have any relatives - aunts, uncles, cousins - who are not jw's? Reach out to them, maybe go for a visit. The watchtower organization pretends that it provides a safety net for the congregation and it does. But it's a safety net that demands absolute compliance with the org's phony doctrines. You need to (actually everybody needs to) build your own safety net of your own design.
And always keep in mind, no matter how terrible things seem to you, there are lots of people who are living in far worse conditions. It's like the old saying, "I complained about my sore feet until I met someone with no feet." And if you do meet with the elders try this. When you walk into the room there will be two or more men waiting for you. Simply say something like, "Given the known history of sexual predation this organization has, I cannot be alone in this room with you men" and walk out.
