are we predicting 2022 is going to be worse too? this pandemic seems to generally follow the pattern of the 1918 Flu and the second year was the worst of that from my understanding... can see delta burning through enough people this fall/winter that there won't be enough covid-naive people left for a real pandemic again

Xenology is an unnatural mixture of science fiction and formal logic. At its core is a flawed assumption...

that an alien race would be psychologically human.

Just had a thought. In America, those who are smart are seeing an pretty great opportunity that isn't going to come around very often. In few weeks or more, you can just simply fake your own death and just disappear and get a new identity somewhere else. It's the perfect time to do so. Ain't nobody is gonna be looking too deeply

Same here. I would absolutely consider it if the mouth window wasn't there and it was full face. A respirators with speakers and a mic that isn't ludicrously priced would be so nice.

Two months into lockdown in NSW and now they introduce mandatory outdoor masking for the entire state. Up until now it was only mandatory outdoors for the 'LGAs of concern' and everyone else had to wear a mask in indoor public spaces and public transport.
Also lockdown extended until the end of September now, though I expect it won't end then either, it'll get extended again.

edit: also a 9pm-5am curfew for the hotspot areas and they'll only be allowed out for an hour a day.

lol yeah, i was looking deeper at the NSW restrictions and i was lollin at being able to hit up bondi beach w/ no masks. i suspect we're going to see a lot of people not take it seriously and ignore the mask mandates.

i also think the extension to the end of sept is going to piss a lot of people off who are going to ignore curfew and the other restrictions.
