Jammy<p>If masks get banned then that's it. My partner will die, and I will too. I know most people don't give a shit about disabled people and the chronically ill (judging by everyone's actions since forever but highlighted since 2020), but you really ought to start wearing masks everywhere to protect yourself from COVID. Preaching to the choir here I guess, but it sucks getting more and more angry yet empty each day. And hey, nothing's more antifascist than caring about disabled people <a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/Covid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Covid</span></a></p>
