I have a physical disability that makes a lot of things hard to do. I can't really have hobbies or a job if my brain declines. That's one of the biggest reasons I still care about covid prevention. That and death (immunocompromised).

Same. I have bipolar and if my brain gets any worse i'll lose what little quality of life I have left. But try to explain that to able people is like trying to teach philosophy to a brick wall. I'm glad hexbear and some of my friends are generally pro mask still.

“Before he got sick, he pictured the world this way. There are the people who are healthy, like him, and people who are sick, other people. And unconsciously, as we all do, he drew a line between the two groups, the two countries. Then when Paul Cowan was diagnosed with leukemia in 1987, he was struck with the fact that these are not, of course, two different populations, the sick and the healthy. Instead he wrote, "The world is composed of the sick and the not yet sick." -Ira Glass (the real one)
