I can't take leftists seriously who talk about how we need to learn to be in community together, but they never acknowledge the pandemic. Like your community is going missing bc you don't mask & abandon people who become chronically ill.
3 reasons I used to drink as a neurodivergent person and the #1 reason I chose to stop drinking (for good)...
