It also doesnt even seem relevant to what i said or the thread, just seems to be a random pro-mask post with no relevance to the specific points we brought up....

@eniko

@viq

I'd rather hear your opinions than that of some random person who cant defend or discuss points.

@eniko

@viq

Yup, and to protect others. Clearly the vast majority of the population agree with me and find the discomfort not worth benefits.

So I will take their cue and conclude that most "others" likewise dont want people to wear masks either in our day to day.

I would be ok encouraging people to improve ventilation, no issues there. Assuming we can prove conclusively ventalation is an issue and can find reasonable guidlines to get reasonable results.

@eniko

@viq

Sometimes, when i deem the risk to be low compared to tbe discomfort. For example if all im doing is adjusting my car to mover a few feet uo, then no i wont buckle up. On a highway in the rain most certainly.

Same for masks,i will wear one in, say, a hospital or old folks home where the risk is high and its warranted. But you also have to keep in mind masks are significantly less comfortable than a seatbelt, that effects the equation a bit too.

@eniko

@viq

Not many, and thats the risk you take. Is the small but real chance of long term symtoms worth the comfort of not wearing a mask socially or the other negative aspects of masks (such as its harm to the deaf community).

For me that trade offnis worth it. And with 7 confirmed covid infections i can say so far it remains worth it for me.

@eniko

@eniko

I am not an antimasker, dont care if you wear a mask and wont give you a hard time if you do. But I have had COVID 7 confirmed times so far, and like the rest of society, dont wear a mask most of the time... Yes I think the risk of COVID is worth it for the freedom of not wearing a mask for my entire life.

Specifically the DEA has passed restrictions that are crippling to people who needaccess to controlled substances.

@JonKramer @georgetakei

Everything that changed after he took office i would hold him accoubtable for, at least indirectly. And most of the issues ive seen is new.

@georgetakei

The healthcare system is the worst I've seen it in my life under Biden. I've never experienced as much abuse under our healthcare system as I have thanks to Biden...

@brouhaha

These will behave completely different, in fact opposite of eachother. In series it will act as a band-pass filter. in parallel it will act as a notch filter.

@worldsendless

I agree obviously. I was shocked when it happened. Despite any requests to see what happened and what might have bothered him so I could make an attempt to make it right, he just screamed louder every time I tried to reach out a hand of friendship... it was astounding.

@worldsendless

I can link ya to the drama threads if you care.

@tech.lgbt

@worldsendless It was bizzare. I dont think it started that way but when his own server went up in arms over it I think he was just acting emotionally at that point.

@worldsendless

The owner of that instance, david, was called out for some really vile anti-lgbt behavior that involved us. In short he vblocked us but refused to explain why and then started banning people on his server as they complained and then the community got really upset and here we are.

He still never actually bothered to say his reason for blocking or provide any real receipts.

@tech.lgbt

@dclr42 It is only hate speech if one party is offended by it.

@joemcintyre

There is more than one rat experiment.. I had assumed he meant a different one than this. ::shrug::

@klforslund @Jedigirl

@woffs

Perhaps something similar yea... "I dealt with this horribile and significant thing.. I am a good and better person than I was, this horrible and significant thing must make people better people! It is the only thing that gives what was done to me meaning!"

@Jedigirl

@Jedigirl

The thing this is missing is that most people want others to suffer not simply because they happened to turn out fine, but because they believe that suffering **is the reason** they turned out fine. They see it as something that builds character.

Not saying their right, just saying you cant fix a problem by misunderstanding it.
