We want to talk about how treating COVID-19 as normal hurts working class and marginalised people, we want to talk about the ways the right mask can protect them and make you happier #maskup
Kinda want King Mob’s X-COM 2 PAPR deal

I think I cracked how to make masking desirable, even hedonistic

Scottish Wastewater: after restrictions were lifted there’s been much more COVID. It’s been eerily quiet all this year which worries me: the only slowing mechanism left is transient immunity from massive waves:

This is a person who talks about “COVID Doomers” btw.

Actual “COVID doom” is assuming we’re all fated to catch COVID over and over (it still isn’t endemic), doom meaning an inevitable and terrible fate

3m secure click: looks very sci fi. Uses secure click filters. The versions with “SD” in the product code have a speech diaphragm built in that helps you be understood but you’ll still need to project your voice a bit

3m 7500 series: uses silicone which is more comfortable. Will muffle your voice. Takes the same kind of filters as the 6000 series. You need particulate filters - in America, usually p100

3m 6000 series: the cheapest entry level mask with a good rep, comes in different sizes, takes 3m bayonet cartridges. Unless you have the 604 this is not a source control mask - it protects you, not other people. Uses elastomer for the sealing surface. Will muffle you some

America - emergency admissions for 0-11 year olds, which are usually in line with other age groups spiked up around June. Other age groups are rising more gradually but consistent with each other :(

Wrestler Jon Gresham has had a terrifying experience with strokes at 37, suspected to be linked to a recent severe COVID infection. Very worried he’s going to rush back to training and the ring: wrestlers are incredibly exposed to COVID

They haven’t actually gotten savvy (no air purifiers, no consistent masking for an airborne disease)

When someone tells you we’re not in the same place with COVID as 2020

If you want to shit yourself a bit do Google Trends searches for “COVID” vs “brain fog” and remember a recent metastudy had almost a third of COVID survivors (not just hospitalised patients!) down as suffering neurological post COVID conditions

No, this isn’t a winter virus. In 2024 Scottish Wastewater we saw the virus trend up in early summer and peak in the middle of it, then stick around above baseline until autumn. We have not achieved seasonality and it is still being driven by different international outbreaks interacting.

Every lone masker at a convention selfie looks like this

Not quite wilderness but nice to not have to think/explain the mask on a 4am park stroll:

It’s really cool when people decide to call people who don’t want to get a virus doomers, write fanfiction about them, then hit block. It suggests that the user is completely unphased, calm, and not mad, actually

Adam Finn mentioned here. On the 9th of March this year he was quoted as saying kids weren’t COVID spreaders in the Guardian, which wasn’t true after the virus began to mutate:

Dana - people already get a lot of shit for taking precautions against respiratory disease (which we do for good reasons). When you bring this up publicly as a political strategy against candidates you don’t like you make us *all* look disingenuous. Particularly when you *do* do lunch

“Hi Grok, can you please show me a picture of a waxwork Elvis full of HGH?”

Oh, of course
