Looks cold where you are, dacrunch.
I'm glad you said it was barbed wire. It looks like it might have been your EKG
There might be a demand for barbed wire and prison bar masks. Some enterprising person needs to make them. Last time my daughter and I went to the mall she announced she refuses to wear them any longer. She keeps it in her pocket and only puts it on if asked. So far no one has said anything.

Do they wear them in jail? I mean, you're already there, been fined and confined, so, who cares?Mine spends most of its time on my chin, while I'm smoking...
By law in France, you have to wear them at ALL TIMES (except eating & smoking) when OUT OF YOUR HOUSE OR CAR... (but doesn't specify WHERE ON YOUR FACE you have to wear them, haha!)
Otherwise, $150 fine first offense, then it rises up, eventually, to $4,000 & 7 months in jail, I think...
Seeing that more and more in NW Ohio also.There's a small group of us who meet every Sunday morning at Cabela's hoping to score some ammo. Today, 5 or 6 gave the finger to the mask requirement and all proudly walked into the store without a mask. They did nothing. The employees were even friendly to us. I have to say it was empowering and I hope others at the store will be inspired to do the same.
Well played sir and welcome!where I live 40% don't comply. Since this is a constitutional carry state plus the fact that here we leave each other alone as a rule, no one says anything in any store or businessView attachment 207542. I HAD to wear mine at the DMV to re-new my license last month. Here it is.
They still have plenty of masks but they're quite priceyI went to order the full costume, over at plaguedoctormasks.com; and they're sold out.
Or have been covertly shut down.

But bringing people back once they’re vaccinated has been the plan all along, as this manager points out:My grandboss mentioned us going back a few weeks ago and I could almost immediately feel my panic response. I realized I haven’t been around anyone for more than two hours at a time in a year (except for three short occasions), I’m dreading having to wear a mask for multiple hours at work, I’m nervous to be back in spaces with lots of other people (even though I know our spaces are immaculately clean, we’ve still had a few positive cases). I don’t feel like me being there will do any good vs keeping my germs at home and away from people who are immunocompromised. It’s all so fraught and anxiety-inducing.
I have felt like I am the one taking crazy pills the way some of our staff has reacted to my three-month warning that we will be reopening the office at the start of June. I am impressed we have held it together this long, but it has been a LOT of work and we just can’t afford to keep paying fees for missing things and losing time for development/training.
The world, frankly, just feels different now:I do not trust people or institutions in the same way and I don’t think I ever will again. Even as we “go back to normal” (and since much of the world is not vaccinated, it is not even close to over yet) I will not forget how our societies treated vulnerable people and essential workers as expendable, minorities as scapegoats, facts and public health as suggestions or lies.
Even when things are as safe as possible, there’s a sense that we’ve been torn apart.
Maybe I was naive, but I always assumed in a crisis, we’d come together as a society and have each other’s back. It’s been over a year of being proven wrong about that over and over again. Knowing that the people I serve at work and the ones I run into in my life may or may not be willing to throw me overboard for their own personal benefit and comfort makes it hard to be around people.
I feel differently about how I view the world and how much I want to interact with it. And I need to work on that, but I think the impact of this will linger.
But employers should also recognize the significant break in trust between individuals and institutions, and know that won’t be repaired overnight. That doesn’t mean employers can’t bring people back when it’s truly safe to do so, but there’s going to be anxiety in their ranks for a long time—and the more they can be sensitive to and patient with that, the better reopenings are likely to go.My facility has been closed to the public for basically a year. We did WFH for a while, then a mostly-WFH hybrid for the whole workforce, and then back into the still-closed-to-the-public office since the new year. We are just now opening up for limited programming, which I’ve had some surprising anxieties about even though I just got my second shot. Being able to ease back into things, and having things like mask guidelines, plexi barriers, and sanitizers everywhere has helped.
Coming back online a little bit at a time has allowed people to readjust. And it has given people with health concerns the flexibility to continue working from home, while letting those of us who feel able take care of the physical stuff that has to get done. I can’t imagine doing a year (or months) of WFH then returning to what is basically my pre-pandemic normal, just with masks on. If there is any way to make this a gentle transition, I think that would be the right call for everyone.
Yes. And sometimes you cannot help cause and effect.Wasn't that the intent of isolating everyone from each other? To instill fear and mistrust among us all so we would be less likely to join forces against the real enemies of the people?

Drove by a park this afternoon. Kids out playing maskless. Refreshing.Walked in an auto parts store yesterday. No mask required. Indiana.
Mostly peaceful protests sure know how to congregate with few masks.Wasn't that the intent of isolating everyone from each other? To instill fear and mistrust among us all so we would be less likely to join forces against the real enemies of the people?

That is the problem with the "we have it all"...... and I see nothing.Right out of the commie play book and it's working as intended!
'We have it all' was bullshit from the start! Sometimes good people rely on the Universe to always balance itself and make everything right in the end. That's the way Hollywood has trained our brains to think.That is the problem with the "we have it all"...... and I see nothing.
They make advancements every day, day after day after day.
