The economy can fuck off for every second that vile face rags are mandatory.
I've now got scars on my face from trying to comply. The distress they cause is real.
No more. No more scratching my face off to bleeding. No more panic attacks. I'm done with the fucking rags and fucking visors.
I'm virtually no risk when the only indoor space I go to is a near empty supermarket late at night every 10 days or so and that's my household's only contact with society.
I've managed to exist 6 months avoiding places that are not strictly necessary since 25 July. I'm certainly not splurging a penny in the name of pleasure to be uncomfortably surrounded by expressionless, incoherent, unreadable mumbling. They are a hideous barrier and obstruction through society, and decimate communication.
I'd love them to be in landfill by May, but they probably won't be. Too easy a way to make it like you're doing something for no effort on the government's part.
Warmer weather in May/ June will affect the general appetite for complience though. The weather had generally cooled off when they came in in July.
By the summer, vaccination will be onto decreasingly at risk groups. Respiritory illness will be naturally low. Patience will be even thinner than it is now.
