Currently in Japan and I swear to God the mask complicance rate is easily north of 95%
Young, old, domestic, foreign, working class, leisure, corporate - they're all masked up.
We'll pass people who are outdoors, a solid block from anyone nearby... masked. Walking out of a hotel room? Masked. Getting up from a restaurant table? Mask goes on and it doesn't come off until their back in their seats.
Hand sanitizer is everywhere. Everyone is very conscious and deliberate with public health. Its a delightful change of pace.
I was debating taking my first trip in a long time there, and you've helped me go for it
You won't be disappointed. Best vacation of my life. Everything here is downright magical. And the exchange rate is very favorable.
Bernie famously has/had heart issues so it's nice to see he has some sense.
You'd think a bunch of old people would be more cautious about getting a disease that can give you strokes and a heart attack, but I guess pretending everything is normal is better for The Line.
People talk about America being a nation that worships death but I think in their case it's literally true. Like they yearn for it, they want this whole thing to be over.
This is a really good physical monument of the political spectrum. Bernie was the compromise, and he's 1 of 525 reps (+staff). So draw your line, then 1/525 of that line is "socialist".
I think Bernie is doing this from a personal POV (after the heart attack gun) and from a public policy PR POV. The fact that nobody else (And I have done zero research) wore a mask is wild. Like get the "leftist" caucus to all mask up and make it a discussion point.
It's all going according with the plan. Dark Brandon was just phase 1. Now prepare for Punished Bernie. :punished-bernie:
you can tell how much she hates the idea of bernie not getting covid
Here's one place where if you're sick you definitely shouldn't wear a mask to minimize the spread of whatever sickness you have
