Imagine if your name was used commonly as a pejorative. Not you, Jim, just "you" in general. It's really fucked up. She didn't do anything to deserve it. And none of those women are even named Karen.

That sucks. The good news is that I think the same rapidfire culture hose that made it get so widespread so fast will also ensure that it dies out surprisingly quickly as well. I already see it way less than I did a few months ago. In another year or two it will be a completely outdated reference.

Is it really something that required "belief."

The only drawback I ever heard from masks that seemed legitimate was that if you use something that is not intended to be a mask as a mask, then you run the risk of breathing in loose fibers given off by that thing.

Actual masks designed to be masks are not a concern.

Pretty sure you're not gonna get "cotton lung" from loose mask fibers unless you're the canary in the Burlington Mill


That said, it seems trollish to go on about how you proudly don't wear a mask because you think they do more harm than good. But what do I know? I'm not a Russian bot.

I have no idea which one of us brought the virus into the house, but all six of us left with it. It kept spreading from there.
