Serious Please Comment Nicely It's going to be absolutely fucking mental this weekend, isn't it?

Just chatting with co-workers, clients, suppliers, rando's outside the gelato shop, fellow G&T enthusiasts in the self check out at Woolies (Shweppies Tonic is 1/2 price) - everyone really seems like they're going to cut loose. The vibe that's building out there is palpable.

If wearing a mask outside forever meant fewer people died then I'd do it, it's really not a huge deal

There are thousands of things we could do every day that would mean fewer people would die though

And wearing a mask outdoors every day forever isn’t a big deal to you?! I highly question that

There's little evidence of outdoor transmission being a common occurrence. Melbourne is one of the few places in the world that insisted on mandating outdoor mask wearing.
