Lysol

Did the manufacturer of Lysol just come out and say "wait, please don't inject yourself with our products?"

Yes, yes they did.

Because a situation in Washington warranted their "hang on wait a minute" post.

Which led someone I know to post "oh, that's not really true" followed by someone else using vitriol that I haven't seen for a while.

And when I say "a while" - take that to mean 3 or 4 days. The opinions coming from some people are not only passionate discourses on their beliefs (I like those), but they are riddled with anger, fear, frustration - and I daresay, hate. The hate-speech I've seen has been overwhelming. These posts are also coming fast and furious on social media - causing me to take a break from scrolling, stopping only to slap up my Gratitude Journal post.

I don't want nor need life to go back to exactly the way it was. So much of society and our earth needs subtle or gigantic course corrections.

But civility and compassion would be nice if it could come back in spades.

And a sweeping dose of common sense.

So, therefore, have no fear, I will only use Lysol to clean my counters. Not my veins.
