Dear new followers, thank you for following me but be warned: It’ll mostly be (sometimes profanity-laden) covid-awareness posts here.
I *will* try to post some art from time to time though.

Many get sick while traveling.
One major reason is they don’t realize mass transit is high risk because airline CEOs lied about viral spread early in the pandemic and lobbied the CDC to lower precautions.
To make the most of your holiday, take precautions like wearing a mask when you travel!

Yes. And it pisses me off.
Did you know our government under the Biden administration allowed a CEO to basically dictate a public health policy that has likely played an important role in your or a loved one’s long term health? It’s true, sadly. #COVID

We could stamp out the flu this season but ew, no… masks? The trauma of masking is too much, apparently.
When we had society wide covid mitigations, we eliminated an entire strain of flu.
Now we’re in the “you do you” era and seeing an aggressive and early start to flu season.
Three children in Ottawa have died.
Wear a mask, ideally an N95. Get your vaccines. Clean the air. Stay home when sick:

I mean, not too inconvenient. It's not like there are any standards of professional conduct.
Is killing people out of sheer incompetence embarrassing? Or is it too normalized now?
