Unless you're immumodeficent or something, I can't imagine living like this in 2023.
I can't believe people still act like putting a tiny piece of fabric on your face is even an inconvenience. So fucking dramatic "I can't imagine living like this" its like living a regular life except sometimes you go an public and you put a little piece of fabric on your face. It's similar in concept in some ways to how when you go in public you use pieces of fabric to cover your genitals, etc. oh man what a crazy fucking bizarro world can't even imagine if we had to put fabric on parts of us when interacting in public.
"fabric" is a generic term and what I used to include all masks, including n95s. Also, you don't understand risk reduction.
You don't know what I know, lol.
Why anyone would do proper seatbelting "preventatively" when you have airbags and your car is built with crumple zones and just a low level general risk of getting in what is mostly a fender bender is honestly crazy to me. We now understand how collisions work, where they happen, how to build cars safer (ie with more airbags). There's no reason to remain so scared anymore.
Edit for context: I don't literally think this, I was mocking something from the removed comment
