It's about helping the rest of us, not just yourself.
A certain half of our country lacks this empathy.  Funny, it's the same half that's most likely to help you change a tire or tow you out of some mud.  But since it's someone else telling them it's for the best, FORGET IT.

This is exactly why we shouldn't rely on government to tell us what to do. We should all know better and do it ourselves.

The same people who hoarded masks and wore them when the government said it wouldn't help are the ones today who refuse to wear them.

It's not just kids who do the opposite of what they are told. Many people just haven't grown up.

I think there is a fear of what others will think of them if they wear a mask, too.  I believe some people associate wearing a mask with being afraid and they don’t want to be viewed that way.

They are essentially afraid people will think they are afraid.  I can’t prove that but just based on some conversations and intuition.

Yeah I could certainly see that.

I'm glad I live in Austin where it's okay to look like a pansy wearing a mask.  I feel sorry for some of you people in other places where you get mask-shamed.

In college football Corona news, 13 UT players have tested positive, in addition to the two that tested positive last week.

Looks like our plan of having "COVID parties" is paying off, we'll get the team all infected and done with corona, and be the first and only college football team to field all of its starters for the whole year!

I'd like to see serology results for the rest of the team. I'm thinking many more than 13 have already had it.

Based on new testing, or prior?

The new ones are supposedly more reliable.

These were all conducted as players have reported over the past 2 weeks for "voluntary" workouts.

They only think that's good news.

In September, when all of our starters are playing because they rolled around in the COVID back in June, and all of their starters are sitting in quarantine because of that house party they went to after the big win over  Ball State, they're gonna WISH they'd had Corona-parties like those fart smuckers at Texas!

#WorstYearEver?
I lost one of my closest friends in the world, like a sister to me, to effing breast cancer in 2019.  So for me, 2020 will have to get a lot worse to make my worst year ever.

***crossing fingers that 2020 doesn't hear me, and comply***
