The year is 2025

I put on my robe and Linux hat

In the past I always thought the characters in zombie movies were always portrayed as too dumb. After covid hit, I realized that they were portrayed as too smart.

What did he say? I can't imagine any sort of bitching that wouldn't end up with me laughing at them

[bonesofthemoon@lemmy.world]

He just looked really surprised and I walked off. Then a very nice gentleman complimented me on my Drive By Truckers shirt and we talked about them for a bit.

As scary as the lockdown was, it was an interesting year of protests for BLM and labor movements. Once everyone had a lot of time on their hands, they started to take action on import topics.

Now I feel like most people are back to the grind, and as a whole we don't have the time to quickly make changes we want to see

[ayyy@sh.itjust.works]

Kinda sounds like you were hoarding, that part wasn’t such a great idea.

[dragonfucker@lemmy.nz]

Maybe the owning class wants everyone to be overworked, because it keeps the people from getting political

[mutilationwave@lemmy.world]

It's a symbol to these people. They don't even think about its usefulness, because they were told that they have no use.

So to them they see a person wearing a mask as an instant enemy.

[mutilationwave@lemmy.world]

Doubtful. I still have two boxes. After a bit they weren't hard to get. We didn't know how long we would need them.

[dontmakemorebabies@lemm.ee]

I fucking loved the lock down. Masks? No more faking facial expressions. Social Distancing? I didn't have to pretend to care about people. "Working" from home? So simple and I got to spend a year home with my new baby.

It was glorious and I miss it.

[lowleveldata@lemmy.world]

It's not many back then because all family members were using masks

[algorithmae@lemmy.sdf.org]

So he didn't bitch at you, just gave you a look?

[bonesofthemoon@lemmy.world]

He might have muttered something but I actually have strep and plugged ears so I didn't catch it.

[__nobodynowhere@startrek.website]

Zombies?

[lurklurk@lemmy.world]

A plot point in Brave New World, although as dystopias goees it's a surprisingly kind one

[ahal@lemmy.ca]

In those movies, the dumb ones are already shuffling about the street.

[zoopzezoop@lemmy.world]

I support the thought, but don't actually do this. Those assholes will call the cops on you and absolutely try to press charges against you.
