    Just dropping in to say I'm still not wearing a mask.

    I must be among the 98% + survival crew.
    Serious question for you. Do the stores not require them by you? Or did you have a years worth of supplies? I understand if you're off grid not having to use masks for the most part but hell even the amish have to come to town for supplies occasionally.

    I avoid going into most stores whenever possible, but I always have. There isn't much I need from them. When I do need something, I am lucky to have family or others that will go in. I've never been a fan of shopping so this is nothing new. I will even compensate others to go if nothing else. Not a fan of standing in lines at a store...even before this BS.

    There are some places (hardware, supply stores, gun shops, etc.) that I will go to....most are privately owned. I've been around them long enough they don't care much.

    They know I suffer from CSL.

    Its almost like surgical masks were designed to catch bacteria and then be thrown away after 1 use. Look at all the bacteria that you could of transmitted to others in just 20 minutes.
    Or, it’s like your body was made to expel bacteria, not hold it against your face to rebreathe for hours. If you wanna wear a mask, have at it, but don’t comment on me not wearing one.

    I’ve only been in 1 store that required me to wear a mask, and that was menards. The greeter at Walmart asked if I want a mask, I said no thanks and kept walking...

    Thats fair, but not really possible for most.
    I bet you wanted me to ask what CSL is and I suspect it stands for common sense logic.

    According to an article I saw today ( I think it was yahoo) the most excellent state of CA is now seeing a new and deadlier strain starting to make an appearance. Gotta keep the fear going, can't let it fade!
    Oh gosh, the first time I read that I thought they were "seeking" a new strain.

    You're supposed to dispose of disposable masks and wash the non-disposable ones. It's not rocket science.

    So crazy that for years men carried handkerchiefs, blew their nose into them, used them to wipe their hands, allowed others to use them and reused them. How did the human race survive? Its a miracle.
    It's acquired immunities. It's how we were designed to work, with our bowels sensing the bad crap and in a timely manner arming our bodies to resist it.

    Yep, us old people are better suited to handle stuff that is common compared to the sterile environment that the youngins are being brought up in.

    I still can't figure out how to delete a post once started...never mind.

    Top right of your "new" post.
    There is an "undo circular arrow"
    Next to that should be 3 dots (vertical)
    Click on the 3 dots
    Then a row pops down.
    On the right is a floppy disk
    Clicking on that gives you
    "Save Draft" and "Delete Draft"

    delete draft
