some of y’all on this hellsite are just really using this opportunity to shit on people with social lives and activities they like to do outside and it shows

there’s no fucking need for it. I’m sorry if some “extrovert” was mean to you about liking to stay inside and watch TV and read books (which, you know, are fair hobbies to have) but Im legit seeing shit about how extroverts~~~ should just be welded into their houses and nobody should care that there are people legit suffering because their lives, their routines have suddenly come to a screeching halt just as the sun is shining and everything they were looking forward to is gone. 

everyone, from those who are sick, are worried they might be sick, to going out even t hough they’re begging employers to let them stay home, to sitting by their window trying to hold back tears because they can’t see their friends (and no, video chat isn’t the same as a hug or the mere presence of another person, it’s just what we have atm) or loved ones. Families are split up for their own health. People are losing their whole livelihoods en masse. Our gov’t is proving how little it cares for us, though we been known.

Have some fucking empathy. People are allowed to be anxious and depressed., with or without a pandemic forcing them to stay inside for the greater good. 

stop making this an “introvert” vs. “extrovert” thing. Even those who claim “they’ve been preparing their whole lives for this!” are gonna be fucking depressed. The whole world is off balance. This isn’t just staying home for a long time because you feel like it or you have personal health reasons. This is a crisis that goes beyond ourselves. Many people are right now going against their very natures (that is, to go out and enjoy the sunshine and be social with their friends) for those who need to be protected and to help keep our medical systems from overloading. The fact we humans can override our natures like that is pretty amazing, but it doesn’t come without severe emotional and mental consequence if this goes on long enough. (and it probably will) 

just have some fucking empathy. your fellow people are scared, anxious, and grieving. This has nothing to do with something called Myers Briggs and to imply so just proves you’re no better than a hardcore astrologist telling you you should die for being a leo and wanting to get your tinder freak on right now.
