Tim argues every company should be making ventilators and masks, marvels that Taiwan outperformed America, and theorizes that a large segment of the population has a religiously-instilled death wish.
- Every company should be making ventilators and masks months ago, not now.
- Taiwan outperformed America at pandemic survival despite America calling itself the greatest country in the world.
- A large segment of the population has a death wish, brought up believing glory comes after death rather than in this life.
- People raised with that religious belief treat their bodies like garbage because they're waiting for the aneurysm at Denny's when things get good.
- Tim questions daily whether he should leave Los Angeles, though he doesn't think anywhere will be safe if things go as bad as they could.
- Antivirals like chloroquine and remdesivir might be what saves us, and he hopes they work.
- Joe Biden has disappeared from the spotlight because his handlers know he'll mess this up.
- Trump-Biden debate is pointless; America should just call China like a kid at a failed sleepover and ask to be picked up.
- China posts bright futures and positive quarantine updates, but the people writing them may have a gun to their head at that moment.
- Chinese officials bring a laptop, sit it down, and make people type about how good everything is.
