My friend took this photo. Why - WHY - is anyone sitting around outside in this horrendous air? People have lost all connection to reality and common sense responses to danger.

        I feel like I've dived in to an unrecoverable conspiracy theory spiral, but then I go double check my sources (the literal us government) and reassure myself that Covid didn't actually get better or go anywhere and there are probably more people infected now than at previous peaks, and i sit in my little house with my little severe mental health problems isolated from humanity and losing what is left of my mind.

            Y'know, I'm not even sure that's true anymore. We had one of the year's major waves in wastewater peak in the middle of July last year. We keep introducing floods of people each time we roll back a preventative measure so that it ends up throwing off the reinfection rhythms between variants. I think the covid seasons are gonna be a bit chaotic to predict for the next few years as everyone's temporary immunity syncs back up.... if they ever do, there seem to be multiple variants out there that aren't in competition with each other.

            And who knows what adding China's population back into the mix is gonna do. :doomer:
