Just don't

One of the great things about social media is that you aren't face to face with people, so that when yet another person treats you like a four year old you can't just punch them in the face.

My aunt is on life support. There are no signs of response.

The doctors have asked my youngest aunt to decide whether the family wants to slowly increase sedation and remove life support, or just mantain her eldest sister as now until her heart stops. They are saying that there is no solution, no way out, no chance of survival.

My youngest aunt cannot make this decision about her sister. My mother cannot be reached.

I can't go across because of the chances of infection. The city's on lockdown anyway.

I cannot help, cannot support, cannot even say goodbye.

And all the while idiots babble on about how becoming Petridish Island is the only rational thing to do despite the WHO saying otherwise. It's not that I always want to punch these people, sometimes I want to kick them as well.

Displacement, I know, I know.
