Wisconsin's Decision

Wisconsin's stay at home policy was abolished. 
According to CNN, "In a 4-3 decision Wednesday, the court ruled that Democratic Gov. Tony Evers' administration overstepped its authority when the state Department of Health Services extended the order to May 26."
This happened after Republican leaders filed a lawsuit. They said that the policy would cost residents their jobs and that is would hurt many companies.
All they said is true. Companies have been laying off many workers. What they say is true, but preventing the spread of COVID-19 is more important. COVID-19 is killing people. It is hurting companies, which is unfortunate, but right now it is important to get the epidemic to end as soon as possible. Taking down the stay at home policy will only lengthen the epidemic. The virus will continue spreading because more people will be going outside for things other than essentials. 
I've been seeing more and more people go out for gatherings. I find it so very very ignorant. I go outside every so often for jogging, and I see families gathered with dogs. 
I may have said that before, but it angers me. Not only are they breaking rules, they are breaking rules that they could easily find a loophole around. 
If you're trying to talk to your friend, just use zoom. Call them. Text them. There's so many ways to communicate with your friends online. There's no need to gather.
That's it for today. Thanks for reading!

    It is nice that you understand and respect the rules. Let's hope all the people are taking the caution as needed.

Being Short

Being short sucks doesn't it? Every time you talk to your peers you have to look up. It hurts the neck. Doesn't it suck walking through a bunch of people and only seeing the back of the person in front of you, not what's up ahead?  Don't you hate it when you really like to play basketball but you're short, making it so that you can't get some rebounds or shoot some shots that you could make if you were taller? You have to take more effort on getting space between you and the defender when you could just shoot the ball from wherever if you were taller.  Being tall gives you more confidence. You can appear more attractive. By social norms, the boyfriend should be taller than the girlfriend. That kind of sucks, because when you're short there are very few that are shorter than you. That's my rant! I am Albert Einstein.

Muscles and Working Out

I am seriously at a lack of ideas for blog-writing. So today, I'll talk about something I have only started doing, working out. I gotta say, working out consistently has been one of my long-time goals. I remember last summer I started working out everyday, but that only lasted for 11 days. It was interrupted because I had to go to a camp. After that, I never found the determination to start working out. I would suddenly work out one day but those days only came once a month, maybe even less. One of these days happened during quarantine. But it wasn't like the others. I kept working out. I don't know why I kept a routine on during quarantine but not during any other time. Perhaps it was because online school gave me a lot more time to do things I wanted to do. Either way, I started working out. I adjusted my work out based on things that I saw on youtube. For the first month I only focused on upper body. Only now am I starting to do lower body. Of course during this time...

Current Stuff

Some interesting stuff has happened recently. Mainly one. There's a teen in Kenosha, Wisconsin. More accurately, he drove to Kenosha Wisconsin, then proceeded to shoot and kill two BLM protesters. Here's what happened, based on what I know. He drove over from his house with an assault rifle. He was treated as a friend by police and was given water, probably because he was one of the few who actually supported them there. They saw him with an assault rifle. He then killed two people. The police of course heard this, but didn't act on it. He then walked back into his car and drove home. Now he's facing charges and a ton of backlash. I know this will also impact his college. What I just don't know is how people are supporting someone like this. His name is Kyle Rittenhouse. He wasn't even defending himself. He doesn't live there. He drove in from his own house to  Kenosha and shot two people. Tucker Carlson and Steven Crowder have actively defended him. Carl...
