If I had to do it for every meal for too long I’m sure I’d get sick. I’d absolutely get heartburn. But I could probably be happy eating pizza once a day, for a while at least. It’s pizza for crying out loud.

Yeah, but I hope “all of the other reindeer” regale Bolsonaro with all the fun they had at whatever 4-star restaurant they all went to, and the fancy dishes they had, and all of the in-jokes they now laugh about without him.

I didn’t get the impression that Bolsonaro had to buy pizza from a street vendor. The way I read it (from some other article I think I saw), I think he got the pizza from a real restaurant but had to eat on their outdoor patio.

There was a _Family Circus_ long ago where Billy and Jeffy are walking atop a picket fence. Billy is saying, “I wish Mommy would hurry up and tell us to stop.”

because she did not have his permission

And then there’s this,

> As a result of the incident, the pharmacy told CNN partner, [CBC](https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/sherbrooke-police-assault-covid-19-vaccine-nurse-1.6185016), that they suspended vaccinations. CNN reached out to the pharmacy but they refused to comment on whether or not vaccinations were being administered Thursday.

On the one hand, I can understand the pharmacy not wanting to endanger its employees, and suspending vaccinations, at least until they can implement better security measures.

On the other hand, you know that jokey meme about how “that means the terrorists win”? This is a case where that’s literally true. Assuming the facts reported are accurate, the assailant was a literal terrorist: he used violence and the implied threat of further violence to disrupt administration of a life-saving vaccine in the middle of a pandemic.

I’m hoping, but not expecting, that the municipal and/or provincial and/or federal health authorities redirect resources to ensure that there’s no loss of access to vaccines in that area. And that if the assailant is identified (and if the facts reported are accurate) he’s charged with something more serious than simple assault and battery.

yup. He should be denied any health care. Any at all.

It probably won’t matter to these idiots though, because, well, they are idiots, but like the insurrectionists, they should have not just the book thrown at them, but an entire library.

They have proven that even trying to reason with them will only make them dig their heels in deeper.

I’m fully vaxed as is my Wife and am glad I work from home. I’m lucky.

Fuck 'em.

They ought to make a dystopian sequel to [Balto](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0112453/), where the eponymous hero dog completes the first Iditerod, bringing the crucial diphtheria serum to the children of Nome, only to be confronted by an angry MAGAt decrying the _gummint overreach_ over a simple matter of a fake epidemic.

And the MAGAt then shoots Balto and smashes all the vaccine vials.

His jazz fusion album “Riddle Me This” did break the Top 100 chart for a week in Estonia back in ‘92, but that hardly counts.
