I'm blessed with an eternal baby face that is only capable of producing beard hairs in the double digits, so this existential question of my quality of life vs looking kind of good to some people doesn't apply to me. my sympathies go out to those of you who have to address this impossible challenge e: (unironically tho to those of you where this is an issueof religion or custom tho)

Holy poo poo y'all he shaved the beard! It's all gone! I've literally never seen him without one and thought for half a second some stranger had walked into our apartment!

Best thread continues to deliver, thank you all so much for letting me vent and chiming in with your experiences, advice, and communication tactics. Oh my God I'm so relieved. A mild infection already left us both with lasting effects, and I've been so terrified he could get it again and get sicker. Now he's excited to go out and enjoy himself again with a proper seal on his mask instead of abandoning the things he loves to do.

I'm not crying you're crying. I'm gonna cook so much delicious food today. Yay!!!

Tbf these dudes take combinations of drugs that are disastrous for cardiac health even in non-pandemic times. I guess we can add “being a pro bodybuilder” to the comorbidities list.

I've had an insanely annoying allergy cough these last couple weeks due to what is clearly mucus and nothing is helping, including allergy meds, mucus reduction pills, corsi cube, mucinex, and so on. anybody here have any suggestions?

Sounds exactly like my asthma.

Asthma doesn't make me 'unable to breathe' or anything like that. it just makes me cough a lot, sometimes with thin clear mucus, sometimes without.

that is also why i keep mine in a drawer. didn't seem particularly secure while talking, either.

unrelated: it's sad that "covid is everywhere and that is bad!" articles in major publications seem so unusual.

things i learned today:

- people with HIV are hurt by Covid because lockdowns took them away from their support circles
- all of the vaccines are good for one reason or another, except for sinovac and sinopharm
- reinfections with Omicron after 6 weeks? this is something that really drives home the importance of hybrid immunity
- viruses naturally evolve over time to become less pathogenic
- people with HIV probably don't need a fourth shot
- one reason why the immune system of the average american is primed to fight covid is due to our awesome-as-hell T-cells

absolutely no mention of long covid in a presentation on HIV and Covid :shepface:

i have noticed lately that people, when seeing my half face respirator, pull up their masks from their chins whenever they see me coming their direction. granted, it's almost a laughably pointless gesture at that point, aerosol damage is done and all, but i think it shows some kind of reflexive acknowledgement of other people and a responsibility to them. it really sucks that rather than foster that and educate people on how to actually protect themselves and others and why it's important to not typhoid mary everyone you can within a 50 mile radius of your home, everyone with any power to help opted to push people to act with flagrant antisocial disregard and tie defiant, conspicuous, performative consumption to their identities and some nebulous notion of essential "freedom" instead

Typhoid Mary was really hard done by if you think about it in context of today. Just ahead of her time really.

Try albuterol, sounds exactly like my asthma. Take like 3 puffs of someone's inhaler. It'll make you cough a couple of times but then you'll feel better (yeah, I'm prescribed 2 puffs but I find 3 helps better)

Hey covid thread does not recommend you take other peoples prescription medication to see if you feel better, we recommend talking to a doctor. Please do not tell people to do this wtf

I mean, short of a major revolutionary movement gaining momentum (which, hey, never presume to know the future, but the odds of that are still approximately 'lol' and 'lmao' according to current expert polling), I don't think it's going to be common knowledge that more people are dying. It kind of already isn't now despite millions dead, and the actual number is still higher than the official one thanks to a still-unknown degree of long-term risks and feckless morons smudging numbers out of apathy or malicious opportunism. I think if you told the average American that at least a million Americans have died due to Covid-19, they would disbelieve you because a million isn't a real number that they can hold in their hands, and if it was that obscenely high the news wouldn't keep saying it's over and safe now.

Between covid, climate change, and rising reactionary bullshit spurred on by both there's going to be a lot of weird puff pieces about real estate investment funds buying off entire ghost towns or displaced populations squatting in ghost towns over the next decade and very few people are going to be getting paid to (publicly) ask why.
