Rich and powerful people losing their best Get Out of Jail Free card might be the one thing that pushes governments to reinstitute any COVID measures other than tweeting "get vaxxed" over and over.

I really felt like poo poo for a few days after getting boosted a few weeks ago so I'm glad it appears it wasn't for nothing

I've just been buying N95s from home improvement stores but we'll see if the stock lasts now that everyone is going to become aware of Omicron and the fact that It Is Bad

The Desantis regime also pushed Regeneron clinics as a solution for the FL case surge while pitching the classic Chud points about avoiding vaccines / it's about your freedom.

Thanks for the advice everyone. And honestly, yeah, I seem to get a good seal even with stubble, it's mostly just me wanting to cut out the (literal) pain of having to do it every so often and also my paranoia. Like yeah, I don't care about stubble or leaving a mustache, I mean it's been literally months since anyone besides myself, my dentist, or a doctor have even seen my face without a mask so lol.

one click a braun series 7 and be done with it trust me

yeah, electric is the way to go to avoid irritation imo.

I've been using a Phillips oneblade to shave my whole head and face 2-3 times a week for the last few years. if you buy the "pro" version ($50-80 depending on sales), it comes with an adjustable guard to get down to 0.4mm. if you want even closer you can use it with no guard (which i do to remove my patchy moustache daily so i don't have to look at it in the mirror/feel it) and just get the cheap version for like $35. blade replacements seem pricey ($20ish for two), but they last for a bit. have not had any irritated skin the entire time I've been using this system, which was always an issue for my neck before

the Braun is probably a better long-term investment but idk

Interesting how Omicron imploded the vaccines-only pandemic strategy in 2 short weeks. That approach is completely dead for the time being and every semi-informed person and policy-maker knows it. There's no possibility of producing variant-targeting vaccines fast enough to prevent mass death, and even if produced relatively soon there's no reason to think a new immune escape variant won't promptly evolve again.

There's no plan B across the entire western world and it's scarily obvious. It was "pandemic of the unvaccinated" rhetoric for months, but now that's off the table and there's nothing else. Govts are instead gearing up to argue the vaccines aren't technically worthless and winter mass death is in fact normal. Maybe it works and crucially the rate of return is safe for another six months, but to me seems to seriously risk the public losing faith in their govts Weimar-style.

I've tried lots of options over the years and Oneblade seemed to be the best.

Not the closest shave but I've found not being the closest shave helps to prevent annoying problems like razor bumps/ingrown hairs.
