Nah man, they're just human doing human things really. This article below better gets to the point I was trying to make earlier... that asking people if they'd abide a 100-day mask request/mandate is a fool's errand and that a better approach to take is something more thought-out, and that outlines a path to success rather than just limiting people's behavior. Of course @jonKranked complete missed the point I was doing a shitty job of trying to make and focused on the whole "when are vaccines going to be available" part of that which (in my head) wasn't the point.32% of respondents said a REQUEST (not a mandate?) to wear masks went too far?
32% of respondents are TOTAL FUCKING DOLTS, apparently.

Doesn't invalidate my conclusion.
It's a fair cop.Doesn't invalidate my conclusion.
My point was simply from the perspective of someone who has experience in these kinds of industries (pharma & med). A vaccine isn't like a consumer product. They don't just have a product launch then you go stand in line for it like it's an iphone.Nah man, they're just human doing human things really.

To beat COVID, tap psychologists
Epidemiologists and other public health experts continue to be “stunned” that people are denying the severity of the pandemic, politicizing mask-wearing and discounting experts’ safety recommendations. None of these facts are surprising to scientists who study human behavior.
I saw a comment recently about how vaccines were like baking cookies - every batch is different and you never know what you're going to get.
Since a vaccine really needs to pretty much do exactly what it's supposed to do 100% of the time, this sounds like some grade AAA+ horse hockey to me. Some fuckin' tin-foil hat anti-vaxxer conspiracy bullshit if I've ever heard it.I saw a comment recently about how vaccines were like baking cookies - every batch is different and you never know what you're going to get.
Pretty sure it was one of those Macedonian teenagers...
Yeah - it was not a thread full of very bright comments...
Stole it from some asshole.
Look up how long the current vaccines take to kick in and remember how good y’all were at arranging testing. Revise timeline accordingly.

Currently waffling between getting a test on Friday 12/11 and just waiting it out in quarantine for 14-20 days and seeing what happens. That said, I kinda wanna know for sure... especially if I end up being asymptomatic but positive. If I develop symptoms this coming week, then yeah I'll pretty much know for certain. But if I don't? Still a lot of people out there with really mild or no symptoms.
Looks like I'll have to revise those dates to a bit sooner then...... You lil overacheivers you!

The ancient term ‘acedia’ describes the paradoxical combination of jangling nerves and vague lack of purpose many of us are feeling now. Reviving the label might help.

I don't know. I've gotten pretty good at giving people a look, even with mask on, that gets them to pull up their masks. Maybe it's just wookie + contempt for your life + "chinga tu MAGA pinche pendejo" mask that works? Or my ever favorite while walking past with Hannah, "good job for wearing your mask right. We'll get you a piece of candy for being a big girl when we get home"
I'm glad we didn't go up yesterday. Haley was coughing worse this am and when I told her to go downstairs to get food from the freezer, she was really winded then she came back up - worse than yesterday.
