Wearing a mask? TRAUMATIZING
Watching as millions upon millions die from something that is completely preventable? No big deal, I sleep well at night.
I am not entirely sure what is going on with people, but I spent this morning yet again in a mandatory in person meeting. At least three people were visibly sick or saying like they are "coming down with something". This has been going on since August now.
But the real kicker is the way a young person pipes up with "It's the weirdest thing, I have been having such intense migranes in the past weeks after I had the "summer flu". I had migraines as a kid, but never as an adult. It's the weirdest." Then several other people piped up to voice their new such weird and mystical health issues.
And there I sit, listening to this same stuff in some form week in and week out. And keep thinking to myself that maybe it's my autism or maybe it's something else, but how do these people not put two and two together, even now. Or ever. I get that they are underinformed, but still.
And I suppose the mask is like this for most, not trauma but just gone entirely as an option. Covid literally does not exist for most people anymore. Or something. I don't know anymore.
Unironically my partner has had persistent migraines for like 2-3 weeks in a row now and I wasn't sure what the problem was. Them getting covid at least 6 times hasn't even crossed my mind as an option
Well damn, so sorry.
