I'm in my PANDEMICS class. Just commented that ppl aren't taking COVlD seriously. Our class facilitator referenced CC Twitter, laughed, saying "there's this group of tin foil hat alarmists" who "sit around and only tweet about COVlD" like about "incoming waves" (air quotes)...

My boyfriend was directing a TV show this week w/ a very small crew. Before the shoot, I asked him if he was going to mask. He said no because he works 12 hour days. Yesterday, he called me, "Well... we had a COVID incident. You were right. Our guest host tested positive." 1/6

Dude, it’s just too hot to wear a mask outdoors right now. I usually mask outside about 99% of the time, so I’m not one of the “outdoors is low risk” people, but this is rough. Hearing people cough through open windows reminds me why I’m masking, but it still blows. 🙃

For the past 6 weeks, I've been incredibly sleep-deprived because my dog wakes me up after just 6 hours to go outside, and it's really been taking a toll on me. Today, I had a mild headache all day, so I tested for the first time since 7/16—and it came back positive.

Do I feel it's sort of pointless to wear earloop KN95s *IF* you have the privilege of accessing higher quality masks that fit you better? Yes. Ultimately, had they just gone out to dinner at a restaurant so it doesn't even matter that they masked for this photo? Yes.
