Chuds are anxious about people starting to wear masks en masse again and ostracize the people that don't want to wear them, so they're trying to get ahead of the issue to make it look like they are standing up for something they always believed in (unlike the npc leftists)

I can't tell if it's real or if it's just Twitter's new algorithm showing me conservative stuff I wouldn't otherwise see, but I've certainly seen talk that there are some new outbreaks and local mask mandates may happen again.

Fishstick posted:A russian coworker explained this to me as the concept of "vranyo". Russians have "ложь" (lozh') for "lie", which is more or less a regular lie. But then there's враньё (vranyo) which at best is like a white lie, but more often its what you see with Putin's posturing. "I know I'm lying, you know I'm lying, but we're all going to pretend it's the truth and go along with it." I'm a native speaker and I have never felt that distinction. The terms are used interchangeably, and while you can turn both into verbs, врать is used almost exclusively in common speech, while лгать is more of a fancy literary word. There are also lots of other synonyms for lying, none of which have any special meaning either.

I think the latest knowledge fight episode mentioned that mask mandates were ruled unconstitional or something last year? So I don't even know if they can do them on a state level?

The whole right wing media sphere keys off telling people what to be mad about today and face masks are a golden goose for that.

I am sure am glad we're just going to have mass COVID die offs for the rest of our lives because Biden didn't want to hurt the stock market or exercise the fundamental functions of a state to enforce quarantine and masking. Just yearly mass deaths to go with the wildfires and constant col inflation

I think I've seen maybe two people wearing masks in the past couple of weeks, and they were both checkout clerks who come face to face with a shitzillion people every day.

I never stopped wearing mine and by now it's just another article of clothing. My theory is that conservatives are so loving out of shape that they're already struggling to get enough oxygen, so the tiny, tiny bit that a mask does restrict made them panic. I can't understand why the vitriol was so great and sustained otherwise, it's beyond even just contrarianism..although by now, sure, it's just entrenched as A Thing Shitheads Do.

Imagine being able to wear a mask around and about and not have random street harassers tell you to smile, or avoiding getting sick when you go to the grocery store and some small child open mouth sneezes all over you, and deciding instead this is nazi communism

The event pokemon like Mew have never counted for completion, at least not as far as the in-game "congrats you got them all" certificate goes.

Like I dunno how that's the part of my post that stood out to you, but I apparently have resting bitch face and since I started wearing a mask out and about I haven't had randos telling me to cheer up or give them a smile. I'd venture to say that this is in fact a fairly common experience for people who aren't perceived as cis men!

I know it's nothing new and is pretty common knowledge now that women deal with this all the time, but I'll never not be just a little shocked and disheartened that people feel free to comment on a random stranger's appearance on a whim. About the only time it seems remotely acceptable (and because this happens to me) is "GOddamn that's a big beard!"

So "nice shirt" is ok, "nice neck" is RIGHT OUT.

teethgrinder posted:Also totally acceptable complimenting niche band t-shirts. Yeah, unless it's a comment somehow tying clothes to the body wearing them, I feel like complimenting clothes is pretty harmless. Eh maybe clothes that are potentially worn to flatter or reveal the body shouldn't be commented on either. I'll stick to band shirts or stuff worn by a guy who dresses enough like me that it wouldn't be weird. HenryJLittlefinger has a new favorite as of 19:29 on Aug 24, 2023 |
