Many places are removing masking requirements. And I’m here to ask, if you are young and able-bodied, please keep wearing a mask anyways. We’ve known for two years that masks protect others more than they protect yourself, and that masks work when most people are wearing them. If only at-risk individuals are masking, they’re more at risk.
Protect others. Help disabled people exist safely in public. Wear a mask.

international friends: here’s the deal. South African scientists have been tracking the COVID genome and keeping an eye out for mutations. Most places in the world aren’t doing so. When we announce a new variant, it’s not necessarily from South Africa, we just publicised the fact that we detected it here. And yet, because we’re a country in the Global South, it doesn’t matter that our scientists are incredible and are doing the world a service by tracking and reporting these things, because our ordinary citizens are being blacklisted because of it and being prevented from entering other countries and placed on red lists for no reason
For those who aren’t aware, this is exactly how the Spanish Flu came to be named the Spanish Flu. It didn’t originate in Spain. Spain was just the first country to acknowledge there was a global fucking pandemic and do something about it.

“Candles can get really expensive-”
BIRTHDAY! CAKE! CANDLES!
Ya’ll! They’re so cheap! I can get a pack of 12 white birthday candles at my grocery store for like, $0.75. They burn in less than 5 minutes and they’re great to just stick on top of a spell jar and let burn down to seal it. They come in all kinds of colors and even numbers in some places! They’re unscented and if someone you’re not out as a witch to finds them, they’re literally just birthday cake candles! I love to use them for that exact reason. Birthday cake candle supremecy.
You’re welcome.
