Some people have never stopped masking where I am. I’ve asked my partner to mask up when going any place indoors where sick people can’t avoid (pharmacy, groceries, etc). We don’t mask at a bar, but we do mask at a concert. The difference is that a concert happens once and tickets spoil. A bar is available every night, and sick people are more likely to stay home.
Unless you’re immumodeficent or something, I can’t imagine living like this in 2023.
I can’t believe people still act like putting a tiny piece of fabric on your face is even an inconvenience. So fucking dramatic “I can’t imagine living like this” its like living a regular life except sometimes you go an public and you put a little piece of fabric on your face. It’s similar in concept in some ways to how when you go in public you use pieces of fabric to cover your genitals, etc. oh man what a crazy fucking bizarro world can’t even imagine if we had to put fabric on parts of us when interacting in public.
I don’t think any of you online mask warriors are actually wearing them in public. I live in New York and no one is, so I assume that this is just another part of your generation’s perpetually online fantasy existence.
a lot of people have anxiety/panic disorders, and putting a mask on causes a feeling that they can’t breathe even though it actually adds very little resistance if any. i’m one of those people, and i never got used to it after having to use them at work for a year. luckily i don’t live in a densely populated area, so nobody wears them anymore and i don’t have to either.
