🤝 i think i'll see at most 3 or 4 ppl masking at most, typically just seniors at the grocery store. meanwhile i hear coworkers hacking up their lungs daily and not one of them mask, just me.

You’re not alone. It’s the same here in the UK, and a struggle to get people to even understand. It’s exhausting. Hope you manage some self care. 🫂

Thank you, and I hope for the best for you as well.

Apparently the latest variant is nicknamed “razor blade throat” covid. So that’s fun. People are so willing to gamble with their health (and the health of others). I don’t understand it. Definitely gonna keep masking. I don’t need more disability and neither does anyone else! Elbow solidarity bump!

You're not alone, but we who mask everywhere out of our homes are spread thinly across the continent. Or so it feels like. 😷

I can't even get family to mask for me, except for one sibling when they've seen a lot of medical people beforehand. 🌸

Thank you, Cat.

That estimate came from ABC News.

Please mask up. Get vaccinated if you can, while you can. Look out for the most vulnerable around you.

I go nowhere beyond buying groceries and the office, and mask whenever I do go there. It's so rare to see anyone else masking, and I'm often made to feel out of place, occasionally even threatened, for masking (doesn't help being in Central Florida).

Feeling alienated, yes, constantly.

Even though I was lucky to be inoculated against it beforehand, that doesn't downplay the fact I caught COVID twice.

That shit is no laughing matter.

I still mask up whenever I have to go anywhere outside my house.

The fact that there are people who *aren't* masking up disappoints me.

tbh, I lost my old reusable mask and have been meaning to get a new one - does anyone know any artists that do good masks?

you should honestly just invest in getting actual face masks like N-95s or something of the like. as nice as it is to support artists, a lot of those custom made ones only do so much to keep you and your loved ones safe.

5 years later, the 🍊 dicktraitor & his puppeteers are actively working to beat that record.

Still haven't been without a mask indoors around people since March 2020. (Other than my late husband, obviously.)

But yeah, that's a good way of putting it. I'm so sad and angry and tired over this.
