I’m actually shocked this is finally happening and it’s under this administration.
Yes it’s true they’ve never been required to use female crash test dummies to test car safety for women.

Another mask story.
A family boarded the flight, and as soon as they saw my mask they pulled their masks out and put them on.
Now mine was a respie of course… and they were using whatever they had, upon which I’m gonna chose not to pass judgement…

By now
you have probably seen the news
about how bird flu
has “wiped out
nearly half of the females
in the world’s largest
elephant seal population,”
which is a tragic reminder
that we are in an era of plagues,
and that “we”
does not only refer to humans.

As she recounted
a disappointing dinner party
my work friend asked
if I knew the feeling
of being with people
(of being with good people)
but still just feeling
profoundly alone,
and as I adjusted my mask
I looked
at my friend’s bare face
and simply said:
I know the feeling.

it can often seem

but you must understand
that this is not because
celebrities are
the only people
still contracting Covid

no longer bother testing.
