still looking into it, suprised to see that Seth MacFarlane is covid conscious.

This is why, even now, I’ve never succumbed to hubris regarding the dangers of Covid. We REALLY want it to be “just a cold,” but it’s not a cold. It’s neurological, and it’s stealthier than us. Those who have friends with “long Covid” know it’s no joke:

    looked into it, seems that american dad and family guy also made jokes mentioning covid.

    Family Guy also made a covid joke in their latest episode

    "Is dad okay?" "It's brain fog from having covid 12 times."

    As someone that's had it 5 times, I hope these are just jokes and not something I should be worried about

    Unfortunate that it's the outlier but I guess I'll take what I can get at this point.
