SATIRE
Pictures I Will Post On Facebook To “Support” Those Affected By The Pandemic
1. My senior photo, to support all those who won’t have a graduation.
2. Photo of me getting a medal at a track meet, to support all those whose seasons were canceled.
3. Photo of me in a hot pink taffeta number with a bottle of Boone’s Farm, to support those missing their proms.
4. Photo of my dining room table filled with all sorts of casseroles and soups and loaves of bread I made with stuff I just had lying around in my walk-in pantry, to support those eating beans from a can from a food bank.
5. Photo of me giving a thumbs-up (wearing my mask and gloves) through my front window, to support the Instacart worker (who can’t get PPE) making my grocery delivery.
6. Photo of me making a goofy face while pointing to my empty calendar, to support those who are still required to go to work every day.
7. Photo of me flexing in front of my home gym, as fit as I’ve been in a decade, to support those who are sick.
8. Photo of my summer home, to support those who are homeless.
9. Photo of me, my husband, and our three kids all working from home, each on our own MacBooks, to support those without computers, or even Internet access.
10. Photo of me laughing really hard with the hashtag #silverlining, to support those whose depression symptoms are worsening.
11. Close-up photo of my terribly dry hands, due to constantly using hand sanitizer from the stockpile I have in my garage, to support those who can’t find any in the stores.
12. Photo of me with my arms around my smiling spouse, children, pets, and framed photos of my many friends, to support those who are terrified and alone.
Remember, we can get through this! We are all in this together!
