Toot

The morning bus.

A new person enters. Looks at the bus that is almost half full, anxious. Almost sits beside another person. Goes back to sit at a four-person booth, having to face another person. But at least they have the two adjoining seats to themselves.

The one who they almost sat with immediately moves to the outer seat, blocking the other seat, to prevent the close call from happening again.

@tero it would be reasonable to do an analysis to understand how this could (almost) happen, but nobody can stand to think about such things for long.

Maybe it is someone else's problem? We can hope.

@androcat @tero

I wear a mask in all public transportation and inside public places. I've noticed happily that the mask is a deterrent for people to come sit next to me in buses even if the bus is quite full. Any other place seems to be better. (Not the same in commuter trains.)

And because I'm wearing and have been wearing a mask, I'm probably the healthiest person in the bus.

No cold or other disease since Feb 2020.

Except COVID-19 in Oct 2022 and I'm still angry at people because of that.
