Yeah, that electrolyte stuff is really good. In the meantime drink pop. Getting dehydrated is super bad. You probably know this I realize. Drink pop. Or if you’re not in the Midwest or Canada, drink soda.πŸ™‚

Hope it passes quickly.

Get the good kind! It’s rising in Ontario, going nuts in Hamilton. You’re in Ontario right?

And so sorry you caught it.

What I read, a scientific study, in summer 2020 was it dies in two hours. And it falls out of the air in three hours. So overnight should be safe. Of course she can get to it when she damn well pleases. Nice way to pay back your momβ€˜s generosity.😠

Monkeypox is going to be bad. It stays alive on surfaces a long time and you need stronger stuff to kill it I think. And of course if somebody has the sores the infectious material is coming right out of their skin. OK now I’m grossing myself out, sorry.

Just wear a mask that’s black. Pffft. I think 3M makes black aura masks. Those are probably the best paper masks. If it was steam-punk you could wear an elastomeric one and it would be perfect. Paint the plastic parts with metallic paint.😁

The TV and movie industry has been on top of it with good knowledgable control techniques from the jump. They understand if somebody can’t come into work they’re fucked. In a way that the retail industry is just in denial about. They live in a fantasy world where there’s always β€˜some person’ I guess. Humanity’s fundamental reason for existing is to work in a store according to them.

Get an elastomeric. They come in large for ginormous men tearing asbestos out at old buildings. And they have a head cradle. Oh my God had cradle is the best thing ever! The elastomeric are also more comfortable in my opinion. Here’s a picture where you can sort of see the head cradle. It’s a round circle of flexible plastic that sits on the back of your head. https://uploads.disquscdn.c...

It’s true. Don’t know how relevant it is. From ancient Rome. So you know nutbars.

And that makes me think of how many hotels have been caught not changing the sheets and unused-looking towels between guests, and the duvet cover never gets washed.

I always take a UV flashlight with me to hotels, and I've seen a couch in a room light up like a Grateful Dead poster. :P

I still went in. They give me the good drugs there (blood pressure, thyroid), so I stayed so that I could continue to get my fix.
