Yeah, this pissed me off. Covid was nothing more than checking on relatives, making sure they don't die, and yelling over an international phonecall for my aunts to take my aging grandfather to get a vaccine after they tried to wiggle their way out of it several times.

I also got Covid during the time when no one was being tested, only the elderly, and had to live alone in my dorm room with a pile of frozen pizza, using the shared student kitchen at night so as to not get anyone killed. For a few of those days I was completely bed-ridden, couldn't even get the fuck up, and the Swedish authorities refused to test me because I'm not a risk group. Later on I discovered I have asthma so I was at risk all along.

It's great that everyone got to make bread and not work as many hours as they usually would or at least save time on transportation, but for a social person who actually has a goddamn life, this was shit. Pure shit. I would never repeat it. I don't want millions to get sick and die while I stand by the oven with mittens on taking out my sourdough bread slab, surrounded by all these plants.

Ah yes and also, I already have fucking plants. You don't need the world to end to go buy yourself a few and spend 10 minutes reading about how to care for them. There's a few apps for that too.
