I feel this so hard. When I’m masked in a public indoor space and see unmasked people, I wonder: do they not know because they’ve been misled, or do they not care? I do feel it’s more of the former, but it’s just mentally exhausting. I don’t regret my choice to mask at all, but it feels very othering.

@gregorlove.com I so relate to this. It’s massively mentally exhausting and holy cow yes, it feels very othering, that’s exactly the right phrase.
And I can’t ask, I mean I won’t ask, I don’t want to get into it with anyone. But I just don’t get it. And I’m tired. And I want to not lose hope in a collective desire to do right, or more specifically to just CARE about each other. Like we’re the human community that we are.
