When you scroll here and end up seeing some specific conversations, dwelve into it, and find very nasty attitudes against people who mask.
Here's my two cents - All peer reviewed science regarding the ongoing covid19 pandemic supports masking. That is hundreds of studies since 2020. To ignore that, is to be anti-science.
But, we also wont change people's minds who think we are "crazy". No amount of anger will change their mind. Or name calling.
Spare you energy. Let them fuck around.
I live in the Eastern Finland, near the Russian border. All my long years I have lived in a peaceful country. A couple of years ago I visited St. Petersburg quite often. There was marvellous culture life, opera, art exhibitions etc.
It ended when covid pandemia striked. And then they attacked Ukraina and the borders closed for good.
Last sunday was the latest phase of this story. I woke up hearing the Hornet fighter jets. They followed two Ukrainian drones equipped with warheads. The drones dropped nearby. They were heading to Russian oil harbours, but GPS disturbance of the Russians made them go astray.
Last night I heard the fighters again. And for the first time in my life I wondered if it is safer to sleep downstairs because of possible explosion.
But don't get me wrong! Ukrainians have every right to defend themselves! I just can't believe that I have to consider my family's safety in Finland. As many others I wonder what has happened to the world I knew.
I don't know who needs to hear this, but if you're yelling at a person on Fedi for not using #AltText, stop. Please.
Should you use alt-text? Yes!
Should you boost posts without alt-text? No!
Should you yell at companies and bots who don't use alt-text? Fuck yeah!
Should you try your best to make Fedi a more accessible, and safe place for everyone—including those who have trouble writing alt-text? Of course.
Should you mention @altbot or #Alt4Me *occasionally* so folx know they're both wonderful tools that can help make Fedi a more inclusive place? It would be impolite not to.
But—and let me make this clear—don't be a dick to folx who forget alt-text, or who have trouble writing it for whatever reason; it's not very punk of you.
Fallbearers got a store page
"Hark thee! Fallbearers is a co-op pallbearer game where 2 players must deliver the remains of a cursed family to their final resting place. Please, keep the body intact."
I had a crap night, but I shall prevail and not only do my accounting but also work on the comic book. (:
And since last weeks deadline bust wide open thanks to me going out too mich and causing my symptoms to flirt with the old normal that had me crying in the mornings from sheer sleep inertia exhaustion - my new deadline is this week.
I really wish I had enough money to pay someone to help me out. (^_^)*
I just saw another (finnish) post in social media about parent whose kid was hospitalized for the umpteenth time due to a respiratory illness, and the kids face was front and center. The kid was crying, maskless, and you could tell the parent had no idea how to prevent it happening over and over again. (Or that you shouldn't post your kids online for wide, messed up audiences.)
Disabled people with uneducated caretakers suffer so much from their ignorance...
Right now, out there are parents of severely disabled children who don't mask because their doctors told them that "it is not necessary". There are nurses telling them that they don't need to vaccinate, and scare them with "vaccine injuries". So, these parents are getting their vunerable kids re-infected with respiratory viruses over and over again, and the kids are the ones suffering the most and being pasted in social media because their parents remain clueless of covid.
During this whole pandemic I have been pondering how to have satisfying social events that are not centered around food and drinks, which was my usual in the before times.
New experiment today was having a friend do a masked dj set in the kitchen during a craft party. 10/10 recommend craft rave.
