Anyway, I really liked the game.

I was fucking horrified at a lot of the things the game made me do. Hell horrified at some of the things I'd already done that the game made me do.

It was a very unique experience.

Also thought the level and gameplay design was a decent improvement from the first game. The first game I very much felt compelled to just fight and run from everything. Whereas this game it was always readily apparent that no matter the situation, I had multiple appealing options on how to approach getting through. Hell I felt compelled to murder everything(Usually via stealth), but I bet there are some pretty good almost pure pacifist options.

May they never bring dogs back though.

While Trump is freefalling on his own the Biden campaign is definitely just stockpiling funds for closer to the election, yes.

I cannot control anyone else's decisions, but I can control my own.

Sorry I hit F5 so I lost a post so this might seem incomplete because I had to retype it.

I don't mean to lump you in with the buffoons, most of us at this point are very much a victim of stupider people keeping this virus thing dragging far longer than we needed up.

I still will stand by the idea that right now no one should be going to a gym without a mask. Yes, I get it, the government is leaving that choice on the table for you. Its still a poor choice. Yes, we can take precautions, but science is showing more and more that wearing a damn mask indoors is the single best thing we can do to prevent spread of the virus aside simply staying at home. Yes we can take precautions, they help, but they also aren't as effective as just wearing a mask. It might be uncomfortable, it might make you feel like you have to breathe harder, but its so damn effective and we're still so fucked with this virus that it really is just a minor inconvenience compared to the benefits. You might not be able to exercise as hard as normal while adjusting, but again, minor inconvenience.

Really, don't mean to imply you are a buffoon or whatever. Just the government left a bad choice on the table and I would say you took it. You don't have to be dumb to make a bad choice. Its mostly our governments fault for not having proper nationalized restrictions. Especially after 4 months. Temptation sucks.

Is this the same science that says masks don't make it harder to breathe and that it's all in your head that is directly contradicted by WHO (and the fact I can't even find an article stating this at all)?

The WHO has a large campaign dedicated to exercise at home.

Beyond that, as you may have noticed in the image you linked earlier, they are encouraging outdoor exercise.

Your assertion that they approve of no masks in an indoor gym environment is merely a misrepresentation.

I don't disagree with you in general. I think it's ridiculous that we can't get the virus under control. I will wear a mask literally anywhere else, had been remaining at home except when necessary (beyond using a running trail near my house,) and was extremely annoyed at my sister for hosting a 4th of July party with like 20 people there. When the gym opened last week, I was willing to make a slight exception for the sake of my mental health and well-being. My depression kept me on the couch for the last three days, and all I wanted when I woke up this morning was to go the gym, get a good workout, and wash all of that away. Home workouts are not at all the same thing for me.

Btw I know at least around here, a lot of local gyms are converting some of their outdoor space to gym space. My advice would be to see if anywhere around you is making the conversation. Could give you a little something to do if you can find one.

There is nuance. But luckily science has boiled it down to the simplest of terms.

Indoors out of household - wear a fucking mask.

Outdoors - Keep your distance, wear a mask if close or conversing.

That was true for most of my adult life(Not childhood, i had to stay in at least good enough shape to play baseball back then), then about 8 years ago I got my dog. My dog is active as fuck. The only way to get him to sleep at night was to run him for several miles every day.

Our literal every day begins going to the park and running 3 miles. Been doing it mask on recently just to set an example for others because I realized people like Corrik are too ignorant to realize when they should and shouldn't wear a mask and would take me not wearing a mask at a very open park to mean they don't have to wear it elsewhere.

They aren't living in peace. They are living in a world where our hospital capacity around the country is being reduced daily.

I don't fear anything, I just want to be able to safely open the country without sacrificing a portion of the population. People not taking this seriously is literally making this take longer and preventing us from living the lives we'd like to live. Wearing a mask is a simple unobtrusive solution to fixing this problem.

Studies outright say that wearing a mask does restrict airflow, because obviously it does, but it doesn't restrict it enough to justify not wearing a mask or present any kind of danger without conditions.

An N95 would reduce by something like maybe 5-20% at most.

A cloth mask would reduce oxygen intake by less than 1%.

People at gyms literally wear masks to inhibit oxygen intake to simulate breathing and working out in high altitudes.
These people are also crazy. Because it can cause hyperventilation and fainting (as well as other issues to those with underlying medical problems).

an oxygen inhibitor is not the same as your generic cloth face mask.

Anyone who claims they can work out in a mask is clearly not exerting themselves.

You are having panic attacks and not breathing properly as a result.

A proper mask will make you feel different because it does trap considerable heat, but oxygen passes through just fine.

Wear your fucking mask(Or, as you are free to choose, stay the fuck home).

students spend most of their money at their university. I wouldn't consider them big drivers of the economy.

Now, without housing costs, their parents are going to have more disposable income.

Wouldn't expect this to translate to the market much at all though.
