Btw a question that has been haunting me for DAYS:

If Tale of the Body Thief is adapted in modern (2022 or onward) time, do you think Lestat will just like. Get COVID?

#there’s a bigass epidemic of a virulent strain of flu or something like that in the book #for some reason the setup in season 1 of vamps not wearing masks because they can’t get COVID would make the scenario so funny to me #raglan james chooses an unvaxxed body because he’s Like That and then it never even occurs to Lestat that he should wear a mask #he’s not anti-mask or anything #this problem has just literally never arisen before #why has this been occupying my mind #why is this so funny to me #it just cracks me up that in the book MULTIPLE people are like #sir #sir you look like you may be actually dying #don’t go home #don’t go to the pharmacy #don’t even go to the doctor #proceed directly to the emergency room #and lestat is just like ‘no i think this is just what a cold feels like???’#and then he passes out and almost dies .7 seconds later

Absolute bastard of a puppy ATE my ONLY PAIR of glasses and the opticians isn't open on a weekend so I have to wait until Monday before I can call them for a new pair and god knows how long they'll take 👍 [thumbs up emoji]

#my body is still recovering energy wise from the flu and now I have to deal with extra eye strain on top of that #my first week back at classes to #great /s #got to make sure I put enough money aside for them as well #bloody hell #glasses #swearing #caps

plot twist update on my gf catching my cold: turns out i caught her cold, and it’s definitely something a little worse than a cold but maybe not quite as severe as the flu

#continuing to test negative and i don’t wanna waste my time on a trip to urgent care bc i don’t /think/ it’s the flu idk #though it would put my silly little heart at ease if my gf went to urgent care and got checked out because she’s been sick longer than me #ugh #yearning hours honestly #also coughing and sniffling and itchy hours #kinda self obs #i forgot i have negative luck when it comes to getting sick LMAO #whatever #she’s worth it and i don’t feel that bad at all #which makes me wonder if maybe it is the flu and i just have immunity or something from having it last month ????#i made that up somebody is gonna tell me exactly why that is stupid and how it actually works #but at first my brain was like i can’t have the flu again like six weeks later right….#at least not the same strain #and she doesn’t usually get sick easily or this sick #while i’m the opposite but the poor baby is definitely worse off than me #rambling again see how i wander #who knows…who knows #realized i forgot to finish that thought up there ^ but by ‘immunity’ i mean like #maybe that’s why it’s not as severe lol little booster to the flu shot i got a month too late

I just saw a vape meme and couldn't caption the image bc I had no idea what it even was but it was about sharing a vape and...?

The fuck people? Vape if you want to I don't care but maybe don't swap spit covered things with people during a pandemic that is still killing people en masse??

#safety #like I'll take a sip of theta's drink every now and again bc we live together and if one of us gets sick the other will definitely get sick #but ugh some habits need to have died off like the two flu strains during enforced masking #i for one will never blow out candles on a cake or eat a cake that has had candles blown out onto it. no spit cake for me please #i can't believe it took me until covid to realize how disgusting that is

Did a covid test and my vaccine is working (it hasn’t showed positive yet)!! I hope it stays negative I want to have an excuse to stay in my room all day for awhile!!

#Is this overdoing it. am i too scared. the death rate of the new strain isnt even that bad and the symptoms aren’t even as bad as the flu.

The next time someone tells you that “Covid is gone” or some dumb bullshit remind them that flu is short for influenza, and we are still fighting a pandemic that is over 100 years old. Illnesses do not leave, we just find ways to believe that they’re gone.

#woosh quotes themself #mini rant #covid19 #influenza #as someone who has both gotten Covid and now has the flu I want people who have had neither to shut up #yeah it’s 2am. I can’t sleep because MY LUNGS ARE FULL OF GOO #literally fuck everyone who thinks Covid is gone #fuck everyone who thinks the flu is a little virus. ESPECIALLY this year where the strain is so bad it’s killing healthy adults #just. god

Pro: I tested negative for Covid

Con: this means I have the flu.

#I haven’t had the flu since I was in elementary #I LITERALLT GOT THE FLU SHOT TWO WEEKS AGO #so y’all. if you’ve gotten the flu shot this year. it doesn’t work for this strain

My nose is like a faucet for mucus and it feels like the handle is broken in the ‘on’ position.

#I’m pretty sure I feel better than I did in March. but I still don’t feel super #pretty sure I fucked up a hip while coughing this evening #the tribulations of having a mild cold #it is confirmed not covid #either flu strain or RSV

so the cdc director was on twitter yesterday talking about the uptick in respiratory viruses going around currently and recommended vaccines, staying home, and...washing hands. Everyone else was like “Respiratory viruses, washing hands.....aren’t you forgetting something?” and she was like “No❤️“ and went to a summit with the other CDC director’s completely unmasked.

She tested positive for covid today lmfaooooooooooooo

#Real Life with Risa #covid pandemic #I got 2 nurses who probably have covid but the current strain has been dodging tests and I can't really afford to have them ALL not come #cause it's literally 3 out of 5 and the 5th is my brother who already covers everything else + his normal shifts #so I'm just having them where the n95s I have + my hepa purifiers and just avoiding them as much as possible #(pretty sure 1 of them has long covid and hasn't figured it out yet)#SO ANYWAY I truly hope miss cdc dies =)#danger days: truffula flu simulator
