“I just want to thank you,” the woman says. “I want to thank you for wearing a mask.” Her voice echoes in my ears.

Editorial on (still) wearing a COVID mask By Senator Paula Simons. Good read

That’s really great of her. It makes so much sense to mask. No disease is great to spread around. That it’s become a social problem to wear one is an indicator of how many people deny reality.

Fearmongerers have put a stigma against it. You’re one of those “sheeple” that gets “vaccinated”. What’s horrible is a lot of fearmongerers themselves mask up privately and get vaccinated.

Sad that we can’t pull together. It makes me think that we’d never be able to outlaw things like smoking indoors again. These guys would politicize it and say it’s against their freedoms.

Unlike the author though, I’ve never really been made fun of for wearing a mask. I live in the GTA and you see quite a few. In Alberta I guess it could be different or people are just saying things behind my back.
