Love being immunocompromised knowing I am just meat for the capitalist grinder
Eh… Nah. I don’t think you’re going to see a lot of mask wearing in the US again. If they want to roll out another vaccine I’ll take it, but the masks are a pain in the ass and no one likes them.
covid or no covid, its not the worse thing to wear masks and stay safe!
Time to buy some shares, I guess.
it’s interesting to see how common it is for people in NYC to still wear them sometimes, especially when on the subway (the air is shitty, so it makes sense).
I doubt it will be much of a problem here, except for those who always refused. yeah, it sucks, but it’s a lot better than getting sick— or dying.
I have wealthy lib family members who live in NYC. One recently asked my spouse, who is an RN regularly exposed to this deadly virus thanks to liberal/fascist anti-maskers, if covid was still a thing.
ugh, hexbear trolls…
??? someone sharing their personal anecdote with you is trolling? what the fuck is your problem?

I’d say the same but there’s clearly no helping you
says the troll
I’m sorry about my alt’s behavior
At the risk of sounding paranoid, the person you’re talking to shows more indicators of being paid to post than anyone I’ve yet encountered.
At least I hope they are, the alternative is too bleak to contemplate
Got my xibux baby. $3000/month + health care and free kung pao chicken, all for dunking on libs on a tiny website nobody knows about from the comfort of my own home. What’s not to like? “Once we trick the foolish Americans into masking again by posting personal anecdotes on obscure websites…then the dawn of communism will have truly begun!”
You get money to do that? Le evil Putin told Xi how to program bots like me to do it for free

I assure you were are unfailingly sincere. If we were trolling there’d be more emojis.

Foul! Implying the presence of a mental illness as an insult. 10 points from Gryffindor!

Seems like you need it looking at your comment history

I’m sorry my alts whiskeypickle@lemmy.ml OkToBeTakei@lemm.ee BrooklynMan@lemmy.ml and bauhaus@lemmy.ml are misbehaving.
This is not how my alt is supposed to behave, he should know better than to commit fallacies himself.
sorry you need some psychopathic conspiracy theory to justify your existence. but people just hate you
I wear one on the subway and it also helps a lot with smells. That “car that smells like shit” is often not noticeable at all.
especially when on the subway (the air is shitty, so it makes sense).
Man, having had easy access to some sort of mask for a long time now, I keep finding little situations where historically I’d be like “man, I wish I didn’t have to breath this shit, it can’t be good for me” where I just don’t breath those things anymore…
I’m trying to think of good examples but the only one that comes to mind is that in the rare instance I need to use bug spray I’m always glad I have a mask I can wear in case it floats my way.
funny you say this… I often think, “have I been breathing this shit this whole time?” when I pull off a mask I’ve been wearing in the subway to wash it, and all this grime washes out
Public spaces often smell reaaal bad when you do have to take your mask off.
what, you don’t like the smell of garbage and rat pee?
tourists… :P
In the borroughs I never see it.
really? I do. Brooklyn and queens, anyway.
The only thing that sticks out to me is scooters running red lights and stop signs all day, but no masks in sight in both Brooklyn and Bronx.
I guess Sunnyside to be specific and Morris Park.

What a fucking joke
Yeah nah
I bet you, that people arent using masks correctly
You have to use it only once. You cant touch it with your hand, etc etc
Everyone is gonna wear the same mask over and over
Its dumb and pointless. But the media mentions it like its the only solution.

Unless the strain is killing a sizable amount of people getting it it’ll be hard to get people to wear masks en masse again.
Ah shit, here we go again.
And this time the government isn’t going to hand out vaccines with no strings attached. Now you have to agree to some website’s grossly one-sided terms of service in order to get vaccinated. No, I do not agree to binding arbitration over something being put in my body; I’m not completely stupid.
I didn’t know lemmy was full of anti maskers. Wear a mask ffs. You should have kn95s or n95s. They work and prevent all sorts of illness. Even a regular mask works better than nothing. They did plenty of studies.
