I should just go spend some time outside, in the heat that would be a record if it wasn't for the previous record heat, and admire my yard full of dead/dying trees. Everything is fine! I just need to relax

This is what counts as a positive thing in my life. i was just thinking that it's a good thing i have an oxygen cylinder that i was using for doing glass flameworking. i just need to get an oxygen mask or something now, just in case. it'll probably be fine though, all the hospitals are full but Governor "Kermit the Frog" Ige has expressed concern.

Dog Case posted:Cool that being vocal over the controversial idea that maybe we should do something so less people die gets your friends concerned and trying to convince you that if you look at this pretty chart and read some numbers, things aren't actually bad! an article about psychology mentioned "maladaptive response" and it explains nearly everything about the normie ignorance to what's happening: https://www.healthline.com/health/maladaptive-behavior#maladaptive-thought-process quote:Life rarely goes as expected. When faced with an obstacle, we can adapt or not. In the moment, it’s not necessarily a conscious choice. It could be a temporary reaction until we have a chance to think about it. their brains are fighting back against the trauma unfolding around them by blocking out and refusing to acknowledge or see how bad things are getting

my favorite people that i have learned about during the pandemic are the ones who strongly distrust doctors and scientists and any professionals while putting their full faith in a youtube guy they saw linked on facebook who thinks that horse dewormer is effective because he's never heard of a horse that got covid. i wish i was them

I think the main reason it isn't done is just that in normal circumstances having a bigass cylinder of O2 around without a specific reason is a bad idea. It's just that these aren't normal circumstances.

i'm still confused about covid at lollapalooza. they had 385,000 attendees, which is about 14% of the population of chicago. the chicago metro area has reported somewhere around 20,000 cases of covid in the last 2 weeks (i'm just eyeballing the graph on covidactnow: https://covidactnow.org/us/metro/chicago-naperville-elgin_il-in-wi/?s=21681094). now, i have no idea how many lolla attendees fly in from outside the chicagoland area; presumably at least some people would've caught covid at lolla and then flew back somewhere else. but presumably at least *some* attendees are local, to say nothing of the thousands of vendors, security guards, hotel staff, etc. who work and live in chicago and who served all the lolla attendees. it seems impossible to me that lolla wouldn't be a superspreader event, but cases in chicago are rising more slowly than in seattle, the bay area, los angeles, etc. of course, we have no way of knowing how many asymptomatic cases that the event produced that aren't being tested at all, but it doesn't seem to track with what we know about the ratios of symptomatic vs. asymptomatic cases basically, what the hell

And masks are crap and they don't even really work." and I just gotta be like... okay. I don't get how she's worried enough to stay home and avoid working in the office but not worried enough to be safe in any other way

mod sassinator posted:an article about psychology mentioned "maladaptive response" and it explains nearly everything about the normie ignorance to what's happening: https://www.healthline.com/health/maladaptive-behavior#maladaptive-thought-process I have another Covid safe space chat I'm in where I was describing my adaptive behavior of finding safer hobbies to participate in to keep me sane, for example going to a VR rave instead of an in person rave. They said lol you sure you aren't just disassociating due to the PTSD, and I'm like 'no I disassociate regularly enough I know what that's like, this is just readjusting my expectations for what makes me happy'. Just because I decided to garden at home instead of going to a concert does not mean my brain is broken.

Aglet56 posted:basically, what the hell most generously, it was a super spreader event, but self selected for young and highly vaccinated so case volumes etc are extremely down from something like sturgis and you can point to lolla being relatively more outdoors, but that ignores after parties and the maskless public transportation oh right, those after parties. cheaper than going to lolla itself, indoors, no vaccine requirement, drunker, and not going to be counted as connected to lolla but also wouldn't have happened without lolla
