Of all the things you could critique DSA on, this is the hill you're going to die on? agony-consuming

DSA deciding to do a mask mandate at this event is unequivocally good and based. Shut the fuck up, you fucking dipshits.

Imagine being this much of a fucking goddamn crybaby about masking. Eat shit, you ableist fucks.

One of the biggest lessons this pandemic has taught me is the astounding number of people for whom leftism is really just performative, and that when push comes to shove, these people will make the biggest fucking stink about having to do something even mildly inconvenient for even a single fucking event or context and show themselves for who they really are.

    Yeah, I'll never travel again without a mask on the airport/plane/train. It fucking sucked to get the crud while I was on vacation, and it was like 50/50 whether I'd get something.

    Airports and conventions are like these big petri dishes where everyone tracks in their bugs from all corners of the world and then take them back home. It's wild that any of them don't require masks. Convention crud was a meme before covid, and it sucks.

      Airports are so gross. The last flight I was one there were two people clearly sick and coughing up their lungs without masks.

      Oh god I know. I got sick so often when I flew. The only time I've left North America in my whole life I spent half of the week I was in London in bed sick. It was awful. Never again.

      And I got con crud a bunch of times, too. In fact the only time I didn't get Con Crud was when I was staffing a kissing booth and we were all swigging vodka between kisses for sanitation reasons.

      🫦 kissing booths are not sanitary eww I was young and dumb. If you're going to do a kissing booth have, like, plastic wrap or something to use as a sanitary barrier. 🫦

        Kissing booths are a real thing? I always thought that was one of those things that only were on TV

          Look we were young and dumb and it was for charity and I looked very pretty in my corset and heels.

      Hospitals are even worse and yet somehow I've seen like half the people there not wearing masks which is just absolutely wild

        fucking love to bring a baby to the hospital for severe respiratory distress as a result of viral infection, and then multiple followups and CT scans after the respiratory distress and every time, the medical staff see our masks and are like damn, do you want us to wear a mask? Hold on I'll go get one
