willingness to ingest human blood out of sheer boredom and malaise: 15%

Old sci-fi having semi decent quarantine protocols and being able to convey contagion means isolation + PPE to an audience in less than 30 seconds is a miserable experience post 2020.

Oh look they're not fighting over the definition of airborne. They're adjusting their air filters and ventilation. They're sanctioning people who leave lockdown. The individualists are the clear baddies.

send me to a future sci-fi space station, i'll take my chances with space!vampires, space!zombies and temporal anomalies over humans who have decided to reject germ theory and even miasma in favour of "only the weak/bad die" nonsense.

newfoundland

Don't mind snow, you know. If it's for a good

cause. If it's falling on our snug cottage

perched on a ridge; if there's auks and driftwood

strewn on the beach below. My sea village

slang needs work, but when “the morbs” come, all bleak

and glum, then I'll “batty fang” through crusting

tide pool slush. I was made for fleecy chic

sweaters, flip caps, “tempest nanty narking.”

I, too, shall sing up a “mafficking” storm.

Squall songs that my sea hag sisters shall hurl

back. There's more here than just hoarfrost and snow,

you know. I'll sing them to you over warm

mugs of tea, cats on our laps, the whole world

ahoo outside our welcoming window.

NOTES:

In Victorian British slang, “the morbs,” means being depressed or sad. “Batty fang,” “natty narking,” and “mafficking,” are all 1880s terms for causing a rowdy (and usually drunken) disturbance while out in public. In nautical slang, when something has gone, “all ahoo,” it means things are disordered or chaotic.
