What's this?

What would you know about MSM?

Of course all of these complexities are discussed on channels other than Fox and in the NY TImes and WAPo. My wife and I voted for Biden, and we discuss it often. Our daughter lost a coworker to apparent suicide and she went to the funeral. My son treats psychiatric patients and having had five of them (last I heard) die from covid, so he sure as hell knows what's going on among those on the edge of society.
