    Q:

    Definitely lying awake at night beating myself up for uh, cooking? It’s cooking. I default to making stuff from scratch anyway

    I’m still sick, this is bullshit :/ I wanna get back out to the gem fields but a walk around the block has me coughing up my lungs.

    Why are people so cavalier about infecting people, you wouldn’t feed someone bad food, why do people insist on hosting social events while sick? Sickness isn’t inevitable, it spreads largely through deliberate decisions. I know of no infection you’re better off having than not, many infections could kill or cause long term damage.

        I understand why people don’t take preventative measures in the absence of symptoms especially when they’re bombarded with everything is fine messages. While I’m kinda angry at the general 'rona response I try not to blame individuals. But like if you are coughing and spluttering you should not be inviting people round to your house! And if you do have to go out while sick (we all are yolked to mammon I get that you might be coerced into work or need to get supplies or whatever) you absofuckinglutely should be trying not to spread stuff.

        Idk, I live outside a city (just) and don’t go into there very much but like you bet I’m masking up if I’m going to be spending time indoors with people, especially during peaks of anything.

        Apparently I’m a paranoid nutter though, since I do stuff like check on rates of reportable illnesses and plan around peak cold and flu season, get flu vaccines, and wash my hands /shrug.
