Not sure if you're replying to my post, as it's immediately under, assumed you were...

Not masking to enter wasn't the issue, eas masked.... The issue is being denied entry to any establishments based solely on a QR code on a cell phone that "says" you're vaxxed.

Apparently these people who are trying this discriminatory policy have never heard of "coding" or "internet piracy"?

:shrug:

"You want a QR code? I can get you a QR code as easy as say a little pinky toe with green nail polish".

:roflmao::shrug::socrazy:
Not directed at anybody, just a test

Mother in law, 84, on O2 24/7 w/COPD, missing most of her lungs due to cancer, who survived 2 clots in her aorta, has tested positive, after a 4 person outbreak in her residence. There used to be 33 residents, that number has dwindled in the last year, but they'd mostly avoided the virus, until now....

She's had both Pfizer doses.... But, the odds do NOT look good.

:cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::censored::censored::censored:
Sorry to hear that. Best wishes to your MIL. Hopefully the vaccine gave her enough protection to fight this off. Having lost multiple family members to COPD, I know even a minor respiratory illness is serious.

delta variant is rampant here but you wouldn't know it looking around. tourist season in full swing. no one wearing masks pretty much anywhere. tons of unvaxxed people here. should be interesting.

also just saw an old friend who got it like 6 months ago. he's still fcked up. can't walk very far without having to stop to catch his breath. he's pretty much unable to work and his doctor wants him to apply for disability. he's 43 years old. gnarly.

Did you get your vax?

Are you running around with a mask on?

i haven't been wearing masks except in the health food store which is the only business that has started asking people to wear them again.
Did he get the vax?

I heard that it helps the long haulers.

Did you get it?

It was a mistake to say no masks after shots.

Humans really notice when you take stuff off of their plate.

It should have been no masks until we get 70% vaccination.

But I think it's too political/religious now.

We are just going to ride it out. With the % of unvaccinated putting an unnecessary drain on the system.

You are oversimplifying like an HR reptile who doesn't want to understand. I get it - to keep your job you will have to go reptile. Humans will miss you.

As I mentioned, I already got the shot before it was mandated at my work.

So as is common, you are attributing motives to me that I don't have.

That is like when you accused youcantbeserious of being an out of touch scholar living in the ivory tower when he's not working as a teacher.

I get it.

--Reptile out!

Problem is it’s worse now. I work in Hollywood.

I only do it for the ridiculous money though. Yay capitalism!

I wasn't trying to attribute motives to you. I was informing you of your drift or rather your porpoising in the boundary layer between humanity and lizardry. Obviously job security in most white collar professions today increasingly requires lizardry with its beliefs, rituals, calendar/holy days, and enemies.

Now you are just being silly.

I'm the university version of rōnin.

And I got one foot out the door.

I can live on my pension now if I quit.

But I still like being in the class with the kids.

But cool story!
