These maskholes are dangerous to everyone just trying to get through this. I feel sorry for these children that have to live with these maniacs.

You too!

I hope to get through this. If I'm around others, I'm in my tight fitting 3M N95. 👍

When I'm driving, I see everyone going and doing their errands and think we got this, we can get through this.

And then, a rumper passes with some stupid flag or sticker, and I then I think we have a way to go, before the exhausting among us quit dragging us down.
