The Em-pie Strikes Back

(as it's a vegetarian pie, can it do the Kessel Run in twelve parsnips?)

When you see protestors wearing masks, a big reason is COVID.

The right lies that it's only to hide identities, so they can ban masks and make protesting illegal.

Leftists need to stop repeating right-wing talking points. Always point out mask wearing is also due to COVID!

@luckytran Sorry to go off topic, but I'm not sure where else to ask. Does anybody know of somewhere that will give a second dose of the current (winter 2023) covid vax to someone under 65? I'm in the San Francisco Bay Area.

I'm willing to pay cash, but the pharmacist I tried looked me up in the state database and said she's not allowed to do it because I'm under 65 and therefore invulnerable to disease or something I guess.

Every person has the right to wear a mask.

There are many good reasons for doing so: COVID, airborne pathogens, sickness, privacy, surveillance, allergies, work etc.

No one should ever have to explain or justify why they are wearing a mask — that’s none of your business.

Q: "Why are you wearing a mask?"
A: "Because y'all nasty."

According to a new study, up to 75% of adults have concealed an infectious disease from others in order not to miss work, travel, or social events. Unacceptable behavior. https://www.cidrap.umn.edu/misc-emerging-topics/three-fourths-adults-have-hidden-infectious-illness-work-travel-or-socialize

@luckytran When I see somebody wearing a mask, or when they cancel an appointment because they're sick, I tend to think that they are likely a trustworthy, reliable, and honest person. They have proven by their behavior that they are willing to make small sacrifices for the common good.

That's what we should normalize.
