Nope. And it's heartbreaking reading all of these stories from nurses and other hospital employees who are dealing with COVID deaths so regularly that's literally just become nothing more than a routine to them - they're desensitized to it, yet they're still emotionally exhausted from it . . . and some of these people will still refuse to believe the severity of the virus even when they're hospitalized for it, simply because a certain political party continues to downplay the severity of it and tell people who listen to them not to worry about it, that it's being blown up out of proportion, that it's no worse than the flu, that the numbers are exaggerated, blah-blah-blah.

On another note, I’m not gonna lie, I feel bad for the women who have to wear masks on their face when giving birth in the hospital no thanks to this virus:


Like, obviously I’m not a woman and I’ll never know what it truly feels like, but I can at least get an idea of what it feels like putting myself in their position. And the fact that they have to focus on breathing while pushing their babies out with this piece of cloth over their face can only make me think of how much **** they’re going through with it on.

I get this virus is deadly but come on, at least let the poor woman breathe when she’s pushing out a baby.

I mean, I'm tired too. . . .

I'm tired of having to put on a mask every single time I go outside (and I wear a respirator, that gets bothersome and uncomfortable after a while)

I'm tired of the smell of my own breath, as well as the filters that are attached to my mask

I'm tired of the mask laboring my normal breathing because the airflow isn't as free

I'm tired of dealing with the mask-ne (mask acne) that's left behind afterwards

I'm tired of certain people always giving me strange glares like I'm from another planet when they see me with my mask (otherwise, some people stop me to tell me how bad@$$ I look)

I'm tired of having to practically scream at the top of my lungs just so people can actually hear me talking through my mask

I'm tired of the pandemic too

But as horrific as this virus is, the amount of suffering people are going through who contract the virus, some of the symptoms and damage being life-long, and even some people dying from this virus . . . I'm doing whatever I can to keep from getting it myself, and if that means an inconvenience of always having to wear a mask that completely seals off my face whenever I go out in public, so be it. It's not oppression, it's not conformity, it's not fascism, it's not controling us all, it's just being responsible, safe, and considerate . . . if more people would just wear a froggin' mask, that'd help tremendously in the fight against COVID.
