I’m in a similar situation. I’m . in my area are no longer .

I need a new pair of glasses. Don’t get me started on my other medical needs… Not to mention my need for myself and progeny to survive

So I need new glasses. My current pair is scratched. Once that scratch-proof coating is breached, the whole surface just starts to peel away.

I need a full optical exam. I have (hopefully still minor) eye issues. I’m no spring chicken.

I am not willing to have an inadequately-masked examiner breathe directly into my face. I will not risk my life or my family’s health just so I can read the fine print (and road signs…). That’s how I let my glasses degrade this far in the first place.

It probably won’t work to ask the optical staff to adequately mask to protect my life (blah blah blah, they don’t care).
Monetary gain doesn’t matter (plenty of other customers willing to risk their health for their services).

What about or ? I wonder if I could say something like “Optometrists have agreed to…” “Doctors are willing to…” “Leading medical providers…”

💜💜💜 I could use your suggestions on specific phrases that could be effective. 💜💜💜

Naysayers, please be prepared to be shut down.

Oh gawd, I have recollections of the response to “Well, up NORTH, we…” …while talking in the south. I am not, nor have I ever been a yankee. And I really don’t want to be accused of being a damn yankee. But here we are.

To those who seek love, who want love but can’t receive it, to those who are lonely, to those who feel they are not worthy… I’m sending love to you. Take care, this commercial wasteful day of bullshit doesn’t define you 🤍

Unpopular Opinion:

“No thank you” is a complete response, that does not require explanation, justification, or a mounted defense.

RT @GaborBekes@twitter.com

When social pressure leads to favoritism, policy can aim to reduce the bias by affecting its source. What if the source that we thought matters, does not, but favoritism is? There could be multiple sources!

@dumpsterqueer I'm hoping this will sort itself out.

The only leavers we have are known , the ability to exclude, and . If there's bad actors complain to your and the admin of the site the person is posting from.

Bad actors over time will either move to spaces they're welcome at. Or they're already there and it's the space that needs to be excised.

It takes action though.

Burden of Messages (July 2021)

Sometimes we feel pressured by a message, pressured to respond. As if the burden of the whole world was on our shoulders. But sometimes responding to the message, replying to the message, does nothing to relieve the burden. And yet the messages keep coming...
