#masking guidelines

[aniseandspearmint]

About covid being over: are we just meant to put our entire social lives, our entire society on pause forever? My mental health plummeted during lockdown and will take years to recover. Now that there's vaccines and crowd immunity and less deadly strains we ARE meant to learn to deal with it as a given, the way we have with many deadly diseases in the past, and move on. So for the sake of life moving on at some point it's **normal** to treat it as a cold, and I'm saying this as someone who's lost people during the pandemic too. Please do not fear monger.

No, but you SHOULD care about other people enough to still mask.

I am NOT fearmongering.

Covid is still dangerous, especially to the many MANY people who are immunocompromised and people who cannot get the vaccines (for whatever reason).

I know several people who THIS YEAR caught permanently disabling covid, despite all being fully vaccinated.

I am not saying you have to quarantine yourself anymore. That was NOT a thing I said. There is a world of difference between wishing that other people cared enough to MASK, a thing that is NOT HARD AT ALL, and demanding that people still observe full quarantine protocols.

Plugging your ears and closing your eyes and refusing to listen when people are still justifiably worried, and not listening to experts that haven't been pressured by the government to say 'COVID IS NOT A THREAT ANYMORE YAAAY!!!' just makes you a fool.

I know that's harsh, but it's the truth.

Hospitals are no longer required to report covid cases and covid deaths as such. This is a GIANT RED FLAG that people are happily ignoring so they can feel safe.

#i am so tired #i'm never going to be able to go anywhere without a mask again #and people like this are why #current events 2023 #america #WEAR A MASK #you don't have to quarantine yourself #but please WEAR A MASK #it's the least you can do #the very least minimum bar to prove you give a damn about other human beings #i resent being framed as hysterical over this #anyone got a copy of that one post with updated covid guidelines recommended by the peoples CDC (i think that's the org?)

#jack howl #savanaclaw #twst #twisted wonderland #episode of savanaclaw #savanaclaw npc #fave npc chara design so far #based on style by oda suzuka #i left some of my guidelines in honestly because if it makes people realize how easy it is to draw this npc and jack #then i'd love to see people draw them more #its not necessary but i like drawing the head shape #putting head and ears and hair on different layers #so i can place and move the ears around #layer mask to erase overlap #twitter crosspost

Reducing the covid isolation period to 1 day - a single day- when an infection can be contagious for up to 21 days is... unbelievably cruel.

#chena.txt #like if this doesn't tell you how little these public health guidelines are about protecting people #and are actually about preserving companies bottom lines... #they're willing to let so many people die or get permanently disabled #working people to an early grave #but giving us more pto? free tests/masks? impossible #ridiculous #covid #covid 19 #coronavirus

Using a mask so I don’t have to mask. This is an example of Irony

#hits you with my autism beam #🤡.txt #autism #i got tired of smiling at people or just moving my face at all to appear more energetic #solution? cloth face garment babeyy #autistic #actuallyautistic #masking #tw masks #tw masking #tw covid #covid tw #also. I’m vaxxed and boosted but I know for certain a lot of my classmates aren’t and I do Not trust them to follow guidelines. #half of em didn’t even wear it during the mandate back in 2020

[angels-heap]

Good morning to everyone except the Centers for Disease "Control and Prevention," who have officially given up on control and prevention and told us all to go fuck ourselves.

#covid isn't over #these guidelines are fucking asinine #fuck capitalism and fuck the cdc #and fuck anyone who's not wearing a mask and cleaning the air

[liminalweirdo]

literally so funny walking into a government office the other day that had no less than FOUR different "wear a mask and protect your community" signs and the only people masking in that whole office were... me. and my husband.

it's like that train commercial that's like "get there faster, safer," and the whole commercial doesn't feature a single masked person? like okay. safe for ... no one, then?

finally, looking for an eye doctor still requiring masks so i MIGHT be able to get my eyes checked for the first time since before 2020 and their website is like

"To ensure the safety of you and our community, we are diligently following the guidelines from the Ministry of Health and our professional Colleges. What this looks like in detail: Masks are now optional inside our store."

It's a joke.

masking is community care.

#mask up; fight covid eugenics #liminal scrawlings #are you guys really still following cdc guidelines? really? the Capitalist Death Cult?

[vergess]

Fuuuuuuuck the CDC

#Automatic OP tag #The new COVID guidelines hit my work #Bad enough we weren't ALLOWED to mask before this (by my employer not the CDC) #But now???? There's not even a 3 day quarantine period anymore????? #Fucking joke of a country

[unironicallycringe]

oh

uh btw the chapter is finished I just need to finish the important illustrations now 👁️👁️

(yes it's been like six months)

(it's been a weird six months)

and I guess I should make a dedicated sideblog, those AO3 Numbers Go Up so it seems more appropriate now (???) I am a startled raccoon who didn't expect the porch light to come on

#mask maker musing #yeah the discord is still a goal #but im just one chronically ill person so it's constantly on the backburner lol sobs #also yes it is easy to just Open A Discord i should be clearer #communities often fall into disarray without reasonable and present moderation as well as clear community guidelines #so i'd rather do it Right than do it Easily y'know? #i cant take my Larp Director Hat off even though ive been resigned for like a year teehee #now that i Know i cannot Unknow

Chip the techno clown!!!!!!!!

@doodlez-btw

#soft arts ♡ #clown #TEHEHEHEH i rlly wanted them to have an almost cyber punk look to them! #they are like 1/3rd clown and the little eye mask is what they were born with #I like to imagine they are selectively mute and when they do talk it is a bunch of beep boop noises #They obviously emerged from a broken phone and is basically made out of coding type things #very colorful creature fr #one of the rarer types of clowns since this one came out of technology they dont normally do that ! #these babies r quite hard to find out in the wild #i think thats all the lore as it relates to needing set guidelines the rest is up to u!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #itari

It is not just oil paints that can have fumes and be toxic, even if they're quite smelly. Acrylics too and watercolors and anything that has a toxic pigment color or some additives. It is not just paint thinner to be worried about. Always work in a well ventilated space 👍

#art #artists on tumblr #traditional art #art tips #and if youre working with dust or fine powders WEAR A VENTILATOR. even if they arent toxic that can be bad #or a good mask. you know. #if youre sanding anything tbh better to be safe than sorry! #especially clays #anyway MWAH be safe look up material safety data sheets. follow safety guidelines #personal /

They’re getting rid of the mask mandate at work (a hospital) and I really wish they’d keep it.

#if they waited until flu season was over I’d feel a bit better #only a bit better #since if you don’t have a flu shot you must wear a mask in hospitals during flu season per state guidelines #and vaccination for flu is down since they have to mask anyway #chaos this shall be #and masking when a patient requests? they won’t even ask doctors to wash hands #I feel uncomfortable asking them to wash their hands and that’s my job! #holly does epi

[mimikyufriend]

I used to do so many insane things just to make stickers

#seasonal speak #I use a cricut to cut them out #so like they print with these guidelines the machine has to read #I had this paper that absolutely would not hold the color black at all so I had to laminate them #but the machine couldn't read the lines when they were laminated #so I put masking tape over them and redrew them with sharpie #don't do this

The left is full of some genuinely awful people trying desperately to navigate the nuance of identity politics to find legal loopholes to continue to be disgusting.

You shouldn’t be looking for avenues that make it okay to mock someone’s appearance, you should not be doing that at all. You shouldn’t be desperate for a way to “punch up” if all you care about is punching in the first place. You shouldn’t be hoping an e-celeb gets outed as an abuser just to give you legitimacy to mock their fans. At some point you gotta just own up that you’re a shit person and you want to hurt people and looking for the “right” people to hurt doesn’t make you any less of a shithead.

#the right has less of a problem with this because unpleasant people who want to hurt others get to be out in the open #they're pretty up front about it #before anyone accuses me of defending the right #i'm not. they actively encourage being mask-off shitty people #the left gives you guidelines which to be fair are made by people who actually do want to reduce harm #it's almost like abusers just exist wherever and will try to rig a system to their favor

[lazylyz]

the virus is here to stay so you might as well get sick and die - the cdc actually

#not that anyone was actually following the guidelines before #i'll just be over here wearing a mask for the rest of my life

also like my school literally doesn’t report covid cases on campus for like almost 2 weeks. they haven’t updated the dashboard since May 12 and in that time SO many ppl i know on campus have gotten it. so im sure cases are very high and i do not fucking trust then to keep us all safe. they don’t fucking care <- is applying to work for them full time 💀 but still

#purrs #this person who graduated from here in December and is disabled became a covid activist and started this whole organization about keeping c #campuses covid safe and im just crying looking at what they did because of how horribly they were treated and how i fucking backed down when #they were like we already are doing the maximum we can do ♥️ like no you FUCKING aren’t. you are denying reality. you are pretending like #covid is over and it isn’t. and im not even disabled or immunocompromised like there are students who are who won’t be able to go to this an #and it doesn’t even matter because no one wants to wear masks anymore ♥️ like how fucking stupid can you be. not everyone is onay with mask #mandates being removed. not everyone can SURVIVE if mask mandates are removed. so why can’t everyone just endure a temporary inconvenience s #so EVERYONE who worked hard for this can attend and not have to worry about risking their lives and their families lives. its fucking #horrific. like does NOBODY care anymore. are we just giving up completely. fuck them andfuck all the people who are making it hard to access #care and actively denying people who want or NEED stricter guidelines an opportunity to go. this fucking sucks and i feel so bad for that pe #person bc they got ruthlessly mocked on Twitter and had to go thru all this legal bullshit with the admin and they did NOTHI NG and it’s lik #like i don’t even know you h it good for you for taking how painful that was and trying to help people navigate it. and i don’t know what to #do with any of this except not go but also im in pain and not thinking clearly but this is fucking nightmarish. like you want to talk #draconian how about the choices being miss your graduation or get a disease that could lead to chronic illness and death. lol #ask to tag
