Seriously I've lost count of the number of people I've lost, it's at least 20 since the pandemic started. It's not like people forward me articles like "oh here's why COVID is fine now".

It's an iron law to me know, I've seen it so much in my life. Libs CANNOT stomach the idea that they're in the wrong about something. It'll eat them up inside worse than anything.

I got COVID 2 years ago and one long term issue i have is crippling migraines. Never got them before. Get them regularly now. Oh, and chronic fatigue.

But try getting a doctor to treat you for being tired and having a headache. Everyone is like "well, you just have to suck it up and get on with it." Easy for them to fucking say.

I'm very sorry for your difficulties. It must be extra shitty considering that our society could have locked down for a month and not done this. I've heard that Paxlovid helps with long-COVID, but I can't see it doing much for headaches. stalin-heart

The reason I'm so damn strict about precautions is that I know that I'm just one infection away from everyone gaslighting and diminishing my real shit major health issues, as we all know that humans like to do. I have no faith in society or most of my social connections giving a fuck about me after losing my health and/or job.

Sorry again for what you have to go through. I fucking hate how we love to blame and burden the victim.

it sucks but the masking and vaccine ship has sailed

if there ever was a real world case for mandatory vaccinations and masking to pop out of the textbooks and slap us in the face it was this and we failed big time

nothing to do now but soldier on and seethe about it silently whenever i come across inconsiderate assholes until i die early of stress related blood pressure issues
