So remember our supporter show yesterday where I talked about our scheduled first vacation in over a year to Hawaii, supposed to leave tomorrow AM? State of Hawaii requires COVID testing from select approved partners no earlier than 72hrs prior to departure. We used an approved company called Vault Health which does home testing, shipped UPS overnight air, on Wed. Heard from UPS that the shipment was delayed in Kentucky due to weather, NO ETA on delivery 😭
No local testing options that are fast enough, and they would have been $250 per person even if they were available (there's 4 of us).
Vault Health may not refund our $120/person testing fee, even though we can't go on vacation.
Really bummed right now. Maui businesses don't get our patronage, Vault Health gets free money, and my kids are so sad but will get over it. First world problems...FUCK COVID ✈️
Fun captioned vertical version of our recent YouTube Live conversation, with no ads, here for Locals fam!
As promised, here's the podcast.

I listed a fourth reason why the war in Iran is not like the war in Iraq. Nation building isn't a part of the equation.
