I taught a mate to fix his gears today, and the jerk didn’t want to wear a mask. What’s worse is his partner is a fcking midwife at Kings Hospital (which has an important Covid unit). Neither do socially distancing, and they’re just living life like before.
it’s becoming harder and harder to keep hopeful.
It’s also becoming harder to stay polite about people constantly ignoring known personal boundaries. Mrs HjustH and I spent several minutes crafting a response to a brunch invitation, and we’ve concluded we’ve been a bit too polite about people ignoring our Covid boundaries. If only there were a term like vegan which conveys clearly what a person’s preference is re: social distancing. It’s socially acceptable to react defensively to someone serving chicken to a friend they know is a vegan; how is Covid safety any different ?
