@end3of6days9 Fortunately my tap water is also extracted and sold as mineral water, it’s ok. Much better in the winter. Waters do have different tastes from mineral contents. Not a fan of Evian, Smart is not pleasant.

One person today asked if I had a fear of covid. No, just a fear of being ill and unable to pay bills. Mentioned it’s at its lowest since 2020. “Only going to go up” they replied. 🤷‍♀️🤦🤐

@1goodtern Something took out a lot of people at work. Also considering that people are likely to be more adversely affected by other infections because of their covid infections. Lull or not, mask is staying on.

[Dr Pifflepop @driedscarab]

@cocomarvgrows I stick to black masks. After 3+ years with the same style people know who I am. They know me wherever I go as so few people wear the things. Still get negativity. A few older people wear procedurals, hopefully I make it a little easier for them in some way.

@aakashgupta Decades ago a bloke in a pub, put peanuts in his beer simply to dissuade other people stealing it. Different times.

@1goodtern Not sure there can be a better Kurgan or remake. Nice if they’re keeping some of the Queen soundtrack though.

@drseanmullen Not physical mask fatigue for me, just can’t afford new ones. But I’ve a stock pile of ugly ones (white).

[Dr Pifflepop @driedscarab]

@1goodtern And.. it’s impossible to get people to understand the benefits of a mask. It’s beyond that to even suggest to a new parent the implications etc.

@BlackIslePMD @FlowerdewBob Ahh my lawn is on boggy Scottish clay. There’s grass, moss, herbs. A lovely mess.

[Dr Pifflepop @driedscarab]

@Matteynice @Watchman_motto Exactly ^

Not sure how something spreads? Wear a respirator. If it helps, great. If it doesn’t, you still avoided other pathogens along the way. There’s no downside to protecting yourself.
People who are bothered by other people choosing to wear one are not worth giving any thought to.

[Dr Pifflepop @driedscarab]

Cruised through the last few days at work. Mask good. People who don’t. Aren’t really even people at this point. I’ve disassociated.

Here are 5 reasons why I would wear a respirator, if I lived somewhere with a Meningitis B outbreak.

It took me 8 years of overthinking, burnout, and self-judgment to realize what I’m about to tell you in 2 minutes.

This is how neurodivergent minds - the anxious, the hyper-focused, the “too intense” ones - were never broken:

People can say what they want about ‘toxic’ Twitter, but it’s the only place where the health fallout from the ‘Living with Covid’ policy is being discussed.

[Dr Pifflepop @driedscarab]

@cocomarvgrows Had a usually nice person go full ‘why? Are you wearing that’ and the old immunity debt thing. 3+ years with that particular person and …

[Dr Pifflepop @driedscarab]

@CovidSolidarit1 For me weeping left eye. Inflammation and cracking in outer left ear is a suggestion. Could easily be wrong.

[Dr Pifflepop @driedscarab]

@carltonkitheka1 Then why do some descend from the ceiling to my face. Why did a woodlouse spider (chunky) fall from a kitchen cabinet. There’s obviously a few wayward spiders.

[Dr Pifflepop @driedscarab]

Funny world. Someone on the ‘nice’ person list went full anti mask, immunity debt bull yesterday. They’re now on the not nice list.

@muddymuddymum My neighbour used to randomly give me eggs. I’d give them to my mum because she adored them. Neighbour and hens have moved.
