My plan for this week's Thorough Thursday, after a week of criticizing nationalist fearmongering, was to look at two cases of the US and China *absolutely* trying to sabotage one another - and through medical warfare, of all things - and at how such activities further degrade a sense of shared reality for everyday citizens. But... we'll see how much deep-dive energy I have left in the tank. Going to take my achey lungs to bed now. Thanks for the laughs and kind words through my derailed day. π
