I'm in my PANDEMICS class. Just commented that ppl aren't taking COVlD seriously. Our class facilitator referenced CC Twitter, laughed, saying "there's this group of tin foil hat alarmists" who "sit around and only tweet about COVlD" like about "incoming waves" (air quotes)...

My boyfriend was directing a TV show this week w/ a very small crew. Before the shoot, I asked him if he was going to mask. He said no because he works 12 hour days. Yesterday, he called me, "Well... we had a COVID incident. You were right. Our guest host tested positive." 1/6
