just a few little bits from the past few days
#both the word count screenshots are from the same day - just different sections of the text. so that was like 4000 words in#one DAY.. huzzah!! (< making up for the fact that I did 0 words the 3 days before that lol.. so its not actually an accomplishment ghjjh)#In renpy I think you can have multiple separate texty cody whatever documents and still jump between them so long as they;re#labeled properly. Rather than like... having one extremely long 60.000 line file where in some places youre in a menu within a menu#within a menu within a menu within a menu within a menu within a menu jhbhj#But that was the way I started doing it lke 5 years ago when I actually made the base of everything so I feel like it'd be too much#work to change it all that dramatically now. But that means I cant just get the word count for the whole document I just have#to jump around to the few sections I worked on and highlight them to get the word count for only that portion#.. the one tiny fraction of the whole monster text wall. Though it is of course spaced out and organized into#clearly labeled sections within that because otherwise I have trouble discerning text on a screen. still.#Resuming a project that's been basically abandoned for 4-5 ish years is just always finding weird stuff like.. why did I do this that way..#why did I write that... why did I organize that in this manner... what the hell am I referencing in this note... etc. lol#Anyway... also......................cat with plum on his head.#everyone point and laugh at mr. plum head boy..!!!!!!!!!!!!! >:3c#I've been obsessed with Calico Critters' social media presence from afar (like how I mentioned one of my possible dream jobs would#be to be the person that sets the scenes and arranges all the toy animals at a tiny little table and etc. to take the type of pictures they#post on their facebook page and stuff) and I see all their photos of them posing the rabbits as if they're in a swimming pool#or on a nature hike or etc. etc. BUT I have never really seen them in person. Recently I was at a store (in a KN95 mask and not staying#very long still of course. wastewater covid levels are still high where I live (and most of the US truly)) and it just crossed my mind#to actually go to the toy section and see if I could find any....wow.... Its like meeting a celebrity.. the Latte Cats....#Of course I didnt buy them because they're like... very expensive?? like $25 - $40 just for one little pack of a few critters like#what is shown. but.... I still got to see them................ my beloved.. I want their outfits... T o T#Oh and then lastly just a pot of purple clover looking things. I just think theyre neat lol#photo diary

I've been re-reading @anbu-legacy and decided to do some doodles while I go :)
This set is all from the "ANBU Trials" arc. There is one doodle per chapter, and some random ones thrown in there for fun. I wanted to add something that either made me laugh or thought would be fun to illustrate.
I would highly recommend reading Legacy if you are 18+! It is very good and the writers are amazing!
#these guys deserve so much love for this giant project#I started reading legacy and didn't stop for a solid 3 days until I had it all finished#I've re-read legacy a few times since then#very good writing and world building#this was my first time drawing these boys except for kakashi#I'm still getting used to them#some of these were also drawn a few days apart so there might be some inconsistencies#I need to sit down and figure out how to draw everyone's mask#I went with the more canon anbu mask style for familiarity sake along with the descriptions given#I plan to do more of these as I go!#maybe I'll be able to catch up to current events?#these are all light-hearted scenes but seriously 18+!#stuff goes down!#anbu legacy#ryouma#tousaki ryouma#kakashi#hatake kakashi#raidou#namiashi raidou#genma#shiranui genma#katsuko#ueno katsuko#rin#nohara rin#naruto#uzumaki naruto#minato#willo art

does anyone remember the teenage mecha ninja turtles animated short? in my mind all the roninverse kids have the same voices.
#moja=frida uno=jackson odyn=basque and yi=kusama#their personalities are surprisingly on point too. i feel like i'm looking at a roninverse prototype when i watch this#even the physiques of their mechs are similar... swap the purple and orange and u basically have the ronin kids#i used to be obsessed with the mecha turtles. had a whole longfic planned out. now i suddenly understand why im so invested in the new turt#now lets see who you really are! *pulls off the roninverse turtles masks to reveal the mecha turtles beneath*#maybe the moja/frida parallels are why i was so convinced she was going to end up being the leader#anyway roninverse turtles go watch the mecha turtles short. mecha turtles fans go read the last ronin lost years and re-evolution#everything comes full circle babey

I have set my self a little challenge!! Using a few simple pieces of lingerie as a base, I intend to create a burlesque inspired costume. sewing on my own sequins, lace and straps etc. gotta reposition/replace closures so removal can be more... flamboyant, for a fun strip tease.
#all of the black thread i thought i had is actually very dark blue or brown so my project cannot start until i get that sorted#i am using black as the base colour and red is going to be the detail bc then i have a choice of corsets to match that theme#plus black and red is obviously one of THE ultimate colour combos.#this could be the start of something dangerous. i may just start adding tassles and sequins to everything for drama and fun purposes#me and my moms sewing machine are going to be besties. wea re already pretty close.#i stuck spidey stickers on it a few years back when i used it for covid mask making

2037: Rosemary Winters, now 16, has lived a difficult life, kept in protective custody by the U.S. government, apparently having a distant relationship with her mother and suffering bullying while growing up for her nature as a Mold hybrid. Though Chris Redfield has tried to be there for her, his work keeps him busy, and she not only feels completely isolated, but hates what she is. She has been subject to testing by the government for most of her life, and apparently has some superhuman abilities, but wishes for a way to get rid of them. Conveniently, she is contacted by a friend from one of the labs she regularly has to visit, a researcher who informs her they have a piece of the Megamycete on site. Within the Megamycete, there is supposedly a special crystal that can rid her of her powers, if she is able to navigate the metaphysical realm within the Megamycete and find it. Rose succeeds in entering the so-called “Realm of Consciousness,” but finds herself in the dungeons of Castle Dimitrescu. There, numerous copies of her wander the halls, and are all killed by Mold rising up from the ground as she attempts to escape. Within the castle itself, she is confronted by a figure calling itself The Masked Duke, who sends an army of Mold creatures to kill her. As she attempts to search the castle for the crystal while avoiding them, she is contacted by a mysterious entity calling itself “Michael,” who writes on the walls in glowing letters to give her advice. He encourages her to use her powers to defend herself, and Rose discovers she is able to cause sections of Mold to calcify by concentrating on them. Though she is able to solve many of the castle’s puzzles, she is soon cornered by The Masked Duke’s monsters. Michael tells her he has found an “exit” for her, and she jumps off a cliff at his direction, falling into the water below. She wakes up outside the garden of House Beneviento, and is lured inside by the sight of a stuffed monkey she had as a toy when she was a baby. Inside the house, an unknown entity cuts her off from Michael, and she is forced to solve a number of puzzles relating to her childhood experiences of ostracization by her peers. Making her way through a nightmarish house of mannequins, when she finally thinks she has escaped, she is shrunk down to a few inches in size and forced to contend with even more killer dolls. Rose eventually ends up in a new location, which Michael informs her is the house her parents lived in when she was a baby. There, Michael walks her through the house, and she learns more about her father through some of the objects in the house. The moment of tranquility is cut short when the mysterious girl who had been taunting Rose as she made her way through House Beneviento reveals herself, admonishing Rose for being weak and claiming she is unloved, undeserving of her mother’s attention. Eveline, revealing herself, pulls her back into House Beneviento, and the two fight. Rose’s abilities prove to be no match for Eveline’s power, but at the last moment, Michael intervenes, saving Rose, though she is thrown out of the house, off a cliff, and into another layer of the Megamycete.
She finds herself in the grounds of the Village, and realizes that Michael is actually her father, Ethan Winters. She makes her way through the Village, encountering numerous duplicates of herself, which she follows to their source– the heart of the Megamycete, which is producing the duplicates. She learns that this is an experiment of Mother Miranda’s, who manifested in the Megamycete after her death and is attempting to recreate a version of Rose with all of her abilities to use as a vessel for her deceased daughter. She encounters Miranda herself soon after, who reveals that she lured Rose inside the Megamycete, using its quorum sensing abilities to cause her to hallucinate her friend. She had intended to abduct Rose after she removed her powers with the crystal, but Eveline interfered, derailing her plans. Soon, Ethan appears, now physically manifested, and helps Rose escape Miranda, leading her to the crystal. Though Rose worries about the outcome, she uses the crystal anyways. Miranda attacks her afterwards, believing her to be an easy target. Ethan attempts to protect her, but as Miranda attacks him, Rose decides to take her powers back to save him. Rose uses the abilities she discovered previously, and is even able to copy those Miranda exhibits as the fight progresses. Unfortunately, it seems she still won’t be able to overwhelm her, until an already-injured Ethan gives her his essence, allowing her to finally destroy Miranda’s consciousness. Ethan begins to dissolve, and Rose shares one last moment with him before he disappears, and she is brought back to the real world. Though several days passed within the Megamycete, it seems she was only gone from or unconscious in the real world for a few moments, as no-one has even noticed her presence. She leaves the lab and takes a bus to Ethan’s grave, where she speaks to him before being picked up by an agent of an unknown organization. The agent tells her she is “needed,” somewhat derisively referring to her as Eveline. Rose slams him against his vehicle, threatening to use her powers on him, and do “things even Chris doesn’t know [she] can do.” It’s not known what those things are exactly and I think she’s bullshitting. As Rose gets into the car, the agent tells a sniper to stand down, reminding him that she’s still just a kid. As they depart, their vehicle is approached by an unidentified figure, and they stop to talk to them. I’m straight up delulu telling you it’s Ethan, fucking somehow, because fuck Capcom, fuck ‘em to the highest degree. Fuck ‘em. The end. For now, anyways.
I tried to keep the yapping to a minimum, but by the time I got here I was fed up with Capcom's bullshit writing, sorry 😭 As of right now, we have no idea who the figure is or what is next for Rose, but yeah,,, that's all anyways folks thanks for sticking around

It's fairly simple actually. Thank you violin calluses for softening the blow, I forgot how thick guitar is.
#it doesn't sound as light and soft as the og obviously and also my strings are crappy#(my dad got the wrong ones by accident -> store guy gave us the copper/nylon combo instead of full copper)#(so now i gotta re-order them cus these sound awful)#BUT#after months of exclusively violin it's nice to go back to my roots lol#tomorrow i'll be out the entire day doing MISCELLANEOUS BIRTHDAY ACTIVITIES (friend's bday NOT mine)#so i'm indulging in a little solo quiet time. i'm about to put on a nice movie and do a face mask because i can#anyways.

Bro the soundfont that CJ uses in his Alone With My Thoughts cover is i think from a majoras masks song
#it's prolly used in other loz songs but majoras mask is a childhood game of mine so i mainly know it from that#was re listening to old ocarina songs & heard Oath to Order then i was like “hey wait i know this noise”#his AWMT cover always made me feel a certain happy/bittersweet vibe ig? instrumental wise i mean#i see why now#idk if its just me tho so y'all are free to fact check me#makes sense since he said he liked the game in the qna#also his cover/songs involving it + the song of storms usage#idk thought it was a cool thing#chonny jash#moss post

ppl will be explaining how a difference is a difference & not a Deviation from a Superior state, & people who are the ones considered Default Normal (superior) will be like "okay....to be polite....i Might say i consider Some aspects of Some people's existence mere 'difference' & not being less than me...." as like hey i'm a Benevolent god. i still actually get to consider you worse & don't have to "humor" anything that challenges my superiority. if you only want everything to fit into the norm then it will all come back to upholding the norm. thinking of people's analysis of their own realities as equally legimate as being like Obscure, Irrelevant, Superficial & then using that reasoning to justify dismissing them. same as worrying that the [Different Lessers (Others(tm))] as Everywhere = a manifestation of the awareness that, yeah, respecting them as equals Does threaten your norm which is smothering everything everywhere. ppl who need to lock in the idea of Borders around personhood like um Yes they're all delineated separate Identities outside any hierarchy & so i think it's relevant to for some reason push back against "ohh so now Everyone's queer" like why not. why couldn't they be. what if they were. what if queerness was everywhere b/c it's ideological not a cordoned off Alternative Identity that is accommodated by focusing on Love(tm) as the new border around whose existence we might begrudgingly accept at arm's length (i.e. being otherwise "normal"! just imagine swapping out the binary gender (or, deep breath, presumed Private Parts) of one partner in an exclusive romantic lifelong nuclear family marriage, & that is Gay / Trans Rights. still gross but maybe we can do it, as long as they don't talk about it or shove it in our faces or even exist for more than one encounter w/us in our lives b/c what are the odds). evergreen laughing at someone suggesting ableist logic might be embedded in language of past & present b/c it's just So little to ask for that it's irrelevant but it's also So much to ask for that of course i'm not gonna do anything more than pass it along like "this is why i don't take ableism seriously" like yeah it's the disabled randos like it's the individual cringe teens(tm) ruining [the cishets would take Gender seriously otherwise!!!] & that's why you won't think about it or do anything about it & continue being comfortable with the norm & resent that actually their Difference is Less & disability is something worse that ppl "excuse" & all these ways that people are & all these things that they do are funny & weird & inexplicable & etc & one can't possibly be cruising along perpetuating a hierarchy with a sense that you're reasonable, well meaning, kind, etc etc & thus Justified, systemic oppression definitely wants to maximize how uncomfortable & arduous it feels to everyone rather than push to make it more streamlined & rewarding to embrace, or at least accept, whatever superiority over others you're afforded
#circled around to lovelessness as a lens there. so long as one was loving. so long as one wasn't consciously malicious#really just mask off about keeping the same perspective of Superiority when conflating disability & ppl ''making excuses''#same as like e.g. that ppl consider everything an autistic person does as being Bad / Wrong / Worse. (this includes ''unskilled''!!!)#(crushing the Social Skills(tm) framework in talking abt allistic difference in my fist)#such that they think sm1 saying Autistic!! is then something they might be unfairly Beholden to to Put Up With their Wrongness#at special times in special scenarios....rather than like in some contexts you are no more ''right'' than the other party#different groups & cultures whose Norms Standards & Expectations could render You presumed rude thoughtless pushy etc#obvious overlaps to consider re: the Norms of like english speaking as ''universal'' someone noticeably speaking it as nth language?#time to Presume their ideas & contributions are Less. if they had the good brain like you their fluency would render their linguistic#Wrongness in having a diff 1st language invisible thus irrelevant. like the ''ideal'' for disability! as the ''ideal'' for anyone Passing#in any way! queer ppl surely all want to be as proximate to cishet ideals (just as cishet ppl should!) nonwhite ppl to Ideal White#women's rights = Proving they're As Good As men. ladies you're using too many exclamation points!! be Confident be Pushier!!#but ofc nobody actually wants the Others(tm) to be Equal. they're just saying ''it's your innate Wrongness that means you Aren't''#the ableism logic in everything. men just Are better at xyz. oh we Can abuse autists...into being as proximate to allistic as possible!!#just actually means ''oh we Can abuse autists.'' the ''correctness'' is your Difference ''intruding'' less into allistic existence#force you to be harmed & diminished all day then save your meltdowns for when you're alone & out of the way#ppl's tweets like ''when ppl say 'omg too sensitive ofc i wasn't talking abt disabled ppl!' like yeah no shit b/c you never think of#disabled ppl'' like yeah most people idk aren't making their life's agenda to stop everyone from saying Stupid#but like believe me people organically sense the Vintage R words when you get called Idiot in exactly the same spirit & purpose#i mean that's so rworded as in that's so gay!! cmon!! & it's fine if you don't say either to gay ppl or. or. [insert the office quote]#oh i don't call um 20th c disabled ppl morons it's bad taste!! but b/c i use it Figuratively in the present it's fine it's so Different#fr i can't remember like. an article w/1 matter of fact sentence from a doctor using a [now Just a childish insult!!] as Diagnostic Label#for someone's disability & it still registered like ice water in the face. presumably no ''especial'' Malice just matter of fact!#it wasn't ''idiot'' it may have been ''moron'' fr. the vintage ''factual'' r word is There plain as day#like yeah ofc the ableism gets channeled into alternate language. & then complaints abt that is like UGH CMON!!!#like idk shouldn't you be fine using the R word then too? not really sweating this issue thee most all thee time either but like#it's not sooo funny even if someone seems pressed extensively abt it. not that hard to in fact just not use all these words all the time#ppl will be throwing out their ableism w/o Any labels talking about how Weird Offputting Etc someone acts so you can Tell they're bad....#and yeah you should think abt that. anytime. the [difference used to categorize ''other'' is Just difference] Is Everywhere All The Time#the idea it can & should be ''contained'' for especial limited specific occasions (when you're feeling Nice!) = upholding the status quo

Hello, World!
Hi there, Tumblr! I've been meaning to make an account of my own for a while and i finally got around to it today! I have heard that you are all very nice people :)
My name is Mask! It's what most of my friends call me. On this blog you'll mostly find: - Positivity posts! You are all amazing and deserve to be happy, even if we've never met I care about you all! - Pictures of me sometimes! - My thoughts and feelings! unsure how often this will happen haha You can also ask me questions and I might answer them! I hope we can all get along, I'm so happy to chat with all you lovely people!
Hi folks, @w1steria-tea here. This is an askblog for my oc mask. He is technically a youtube ego/markiplier ego oc but the original concept was a one off and never very fleshed out to begin with (It has shown up in canon exactly twice with no distinct character attatched and the meat of it is noncanon sidecontent), so he's sharing custody with canon. as you do.
WHAT TO EXPECT!! Mask will: ☺ Answer questions! The better the question the more time I spend on the drawing. really good ones may even get multiple drawings! ☺ Make in character text posts! i have. zero idea how often this will happen. its my first time w an rp/askblog we'll see ☺ Respond to comments and reblogs! If you leave interesting tags he might say something back!
Uh other stuff i want to say ☆ Boundaries will be fleshed out as I recieve asks and information about him is revealed, this includes content warnings etc. i have no idea how deep into this we'll get. questions will also likely take a minimum of two days to be answered. art is hard guys ☆ Ooc posts will be tagged #ooc, in character posting that is not responding to an ask will be tagged #in character, #mask speaks, or #mask posts. ☆ all art posted on this blog is done by me unless otherwise stated! PS: his desktop has a fun theme if u want to check it out its got a music player and silly blinkies and everything!! minor eyestrain warning tho just an fyi
OK THATS IT GO NUTS HAVE FUN SEND HIM TO UR FRIENDS IDK
#pinned#intro post#askblog#youtube egos#markiplier#if u know what he's based on u know#my brain has not shut up about him for two years so he has an askblog now#i have no idea how long it'll be up and running but we'll see!#god does he even have a tag???#maskiplier#positiviplier#<- those are my best guesses#i dont use his full name ever tho its just mask usually. my silly.#he has a small bit of lore but im trying the collaborative approach to fleshing him out bc it seems really fun!!#its fuckin late here so i may re edit in the morning

Somewhat belatedly, I thank you from the depths of my heart for these tips! I will at the very least be looking into getting some nice new black masks from Home Depot soon, and may try adopting your grandma if it comes down to it.
TAKEAWAYS:
We are in the biggest Covid surge in the US in at least two years
Time to wear a mask in crowded spaces (personally, I'd recommend one in all indoor public spaces and crowded outdoor spaces)
Immunity has waned and the new variant is 'distinctly more challenging to our immune system'
Updated boosters should be available the week of September 1st
The US needs to invest more in nasal vaccine programs, and should have already - this is the thing that could help actually get us out of the woods.
We are continuing to see more folks develop Long Covid even from mild infections
You should just read the article it's not that long but that's the run down
Me Editorializing: Let’s protect and care for ourselves and each other!
#covid 19#coronavirus#face masks#vaccines#yes good#cancer reference#wishing your grandma the best!#my dad just got re-diagnosed(?) with diabetes#(...long story)#so i might use him as an excuse instead#'i live with an immunocompromised adult who is over sixty; can i please have an extra shot now?'

Finally got an outdoor task done that I've been trying to get done for three whole days but my brain said it was illegal. It took doing it in little bits all damn day, but it's done.
#i super wish i had some ice cream to reward myself with but i don't :-/#it wasn't anything difficult either#i just needed to pick up the old asphalt area in back a little and run the leaf blower to “sweep” it#getting rid of a season's worth of dead plant material and dirt and grit#the asphalt is so old and rough that it's much easier just to blow everything in a corner instead of using a broom#and since it hasn't rained FOR AN ENTIRE MONTH everything is dried and blowable#we may get rain tomorrow#probably not but if we do it would have fucked up this task so i really wanted to get it done today#and i did#though i'm not looking forward to the allergy-induced exhaustion tomorrow#i wore a dust mask but another issue with no rain in ragweed season means pollen is all over and gets re-airborne easily#so it's inevitable#i just hope we skip the sinus headache so i can read or something in bed#i do really wish i had ice cream though

Weird feeling that I don't like when I think about how much I can't really comprehend Dr Bald. I don't know who he is.
#I want to understand him. yet i feel like i never will. you get me.#when i read jim's fics i. man. i feel like i dont know this man at all. this is a person who will comprehend him beyond what i ever will.#i dont know who faut is really#i dont know who he is. especially not who he was before#i want to understand what's going through dr bald yknow. but i feel like i wont ever get it no matter how much i re read and re read.#re read his story. what's he going through; really. what was happening in those years.#i dont get him. i wish i could.#ughck. i guess I'll re read his stuff soon. it just sucks that he's not really getting to me.#i love the man. I'm intrigued.#i need to understand but i can't.#again. i say.

gonna show u guys a little opalescent highlight hack i threw together today
rainbow gradient above your main figure (i usually have all my main figure folders/layers in one big folder, so i can clip gradient maps + adjustments to it!). liquify tool to push the colors around a bit. STAY WITH ME I KNOW IT LOOKS STUPID RN I'M GOING SOMEWHERE WITH THIS
THEN: set it to add/glow (or the equivalent in ur drawing program), lower the opacity a bit, and apply a layer mask. then u can edit the mask with whatever tools you like to create rainbow highlights!!
in this case i'm mostly using the lasso fill tool to chip out little facets, but i've also done some soft airbrushing to bring in larger rainbow swirls in some areas. it's pretty subtle here, but you can see it better when i remove the gradient map that's above everything, since below i'm working in greyscale:
more granular rambling beneath the cut!
u could also just do this with a brush that has color jitter, but what i like about using layer masks for highlight/shading layers is how simple and reversible it makes everything. i can use whatever brushes i want, and erasing/redoing things is super low stakes, which is great when i often approach this stuff with a super trial-and-error approach.
example: have u ever thrown a gradient w multiple colors over an entire piece, set it to multiply etc, and then tried to erase it away to carve out shadows/highlights? it's super frustrating, bc it looks really good, but if u erase something and then change ur mind later, u basically would have to like. recreate the gradient in the area u want to cover up again. that's how i used to do things before figuring out layer masks!! but masking basically creates a version of this with INFINITE undo bc u can erase/re-place the base layer whenever u want.
anyway, back to rambling about this specific method:
i actually have TWO of these layers on this piece (one with the liquified swirls shown above, and another that's just a normal concentric circle gradient with much broader stripes) so i can vary the highlights easily as needed.
since i've basically hidden the rainbow pattern from myself, the colors in each brushstroke i make will kind of be a surprise, which isn't always great -- but easily fixable! for example, if i carve out a highlight and it turns out the rainbow pattern in that area is way too stripey, i can just switch from editing the mask to editing the main layer and blur that spot a bit.
also, this isn't a full explanation of the overall transparency effect in these screencaps! there's other layer stuff happening below the rainbow highlights, but the short version is i have all this character's body parts in different folders, each with their own lineart and background fill, and then the fill opacity is lowered and there's multiply layers clipped to that -- blah blah it's a whole thing. maybe i'll have a whole rundown on this on patreon later. uhhh i think that's it tho! i hope u get something useful out of this extremely specific thing i did lmao

I think the left completely failed to form an effective covid-safety strategy.
First they failed by putting far too little effort into winning systematic changes (access to health care, access to paid sick leave, ventilation of work- and public spaces, etc) and putting most of the focus on individual behaviors that they could judge individuals for (vaccines and above all masking).
Their second failure was to then primarily rely on punitive pressure and scolding people to achieve that behavior. Which meant that this strategy only kind of worked a little when they had enough people to keep up that pressure. The moment that pressure wasn't enough anymore, most people stopped masking because they'd only even done it because of external pressure.
This left us with nothing. No systematic changes and no group safety.
At that point, the third failure was to change nothing once it became abundantly clear that these tactics weren't working. People wrote comics and long reads and video essays about the lack of solidarity of people who stopped masking, and while there was truth there, that didn't change anything.
Yet at no point did people take stock, re-assess and change strategy. To this day people are just doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. In fact, people seem to just double down. Where they talked about a range of safety measures in the past they've switched to only talking about masking. Where they used a range of tactics in the past, they've switched to only scolding.
And when you challenge them, the response is something like "But I am right, this is unjust, so people should change when I tell them it is unjust". But that's not a strategy. Creating societal change doesn't require being right, it requires having an effective plan on how to actually achieve real change.
And I don't have a full draft of what would make an effective strategy. I think unions could play a big role in achieving things paid sick leave and proper ventilation. But I don't have all the answers either. I think there needs to be an acknowledgement that what's currently happening isn't working, and that a new strategy is long overdue.
