soc_puppetToday, in posts I am too scared to make on Tumblr:
* I haven't been keeping up with Covid 19 news that much, especially if anyone's actually discovered a source. Honestly, the fact that it's here now is more than enough. Just, the thought that there might be more on the way, with how badly prepared we were for this, and the fact that we might be able to prevent some of them showing up but really aren't? I mean, healthcare and workers rights reform are definitely at the top of the list of importance here, but that accidental mental connection just rocketed climate change pretty much right behind them in my mind.
Anyone remember that post about how, with permafrost melting, scary new diseases might be popping up from before the last ice age?
To be clear, I am in no way saying that’s where Covid 19 came from*; I am saying that, unless we get climate change under control, this might just be a preview of things to come.
