My 10 year old was contact traced yesterday at school. He was within 6 feet of someone that has tested positive. He’s now quarantined for 5 days and has to do remote learning. Oh, and only the persons directly in front or to the side of the COVID-positive person, the diagonal folks were not quarantined because COVID is scared of 45-degree angles (SCIENCE).

The school also came back from Christmas break with a mask mandate in place for 2 weeks.

When he found out, he asked…. “Why am I wearing a mask if I’m still going to get quarantined if I’m close to someone that has COVID? I thought the mask was going to protect me.” The best part is that it was a sarcastic question.

I’m a proud papa 😎!

I used to be baffled at the near religious adherence to masks

I'm not baffled anymore. Now I am angry. Against all evidence to their uselessness and all indication of their harm, these people want to make them a permanent fixture of life.

Oh, as for cornell- if they have students willing to pay their exorbitant tuition fees to suffer that insanity, well, that speaks for itself

Without going into too many details, I blow through hundreds of thousands of dollars a year on non essential activities. That will change now. I'm not spending a dime in 2022 on anything that has even a hint of covid theatre in it. I hope enough others follow suit to break this madness economically
