The numbers in my town are good, but I've got to go to Tacoma and then Olympia today; I may be double masking.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I just looked up my county numbers, 64%. I'm not out and about enough to know what the mask situation is like - everyone I see are wearing masks while they work with the public but I don't know what the public is up to. Oh look, my city has the lowest rate with 58%. What's that about, Suisun?
Wait, that's from the end of May. How weird that there aren't newer numbers available. Probably not good, then.

You guys inspired me to look mine up. Looks like San Diego county is at about 70% , though the state is apparently only at 51% (*grumble, grumble* frickin' Central Valley).

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Statewide, Ohio is about 45% fully vaccinated, and my county is about 47%. Both of those are below the national average of 48.5%. Jesus.

Our county is at 61.9% and the state of MA is at 62.7%.

I may be a bad person ... the rest of the office is coming back and one, a new staff person, arrived to find that the docking station for her computer isn't there. I have it. Mine died and that one was the only one in the office that matched my old one. I'm not saying that to anyone in the office, but I figured it's safe to 'fess up here. (Also - all our computers and docking stations have locks on them ... the one I snitched we don't have the code for, but it's OK - someone previously CUT the cable securing the docking station.)

My county is at 80% having one dose and 75% two doses. Which is great except when I think “that’s still 1 in 5 people who haven’t been vaccinated!!” And it’s about the same whether you sort 16 and up or 12 and up, surprisingly!

Given the conditions you've been working under the past year and a half, I don't blame you, Todd.

Given how they have shafted you in many ways, Toddson, I'm gonna say NOT a bad person and that equipment was appropriately prioritized (by you) to support the person who has been in the office this whole time.
In other news, the wifi adapter that I ordered fixed my desktop connectivity issues, so now I really do need to call Comcast and cancel my service and I am not looking forward to that onerous task.

"the businesses with signs like “no mask needed if you’re vaccinated and we aren’t checking we trust you!”
We went to the zoo on Sunday morning for A Big Thing, and the number of people wandering around unmasked was unsettling. We were fully masked, because yeah we're vaccinated, but we don't trust random people of the public.
I now find zombie fiction wherein people pull together and look out for everyone to be laughably quaint.
