Comments on other people's posts:

[cw: suicide] [WordPress part 1 (Tumblr part 1); WordPress part 2 (Tumblr part 2); WordPress part 3 (Tumblr part 3)] (OP by [twitter.com profile] AshWrites; in response to [tumblr.com profile] derinthescarletpescatarian, [tumblr.com profile] alarajrogers, [tumblr.com profile] rustingbridges, [tumblr.com profile] gasmaskaesthetic, [tumblr.com profile] poipoipoi-2016, and [tumblr.com profile] jadagul) More spreading the good word of masks as an allergy prophylactic; today in the hidden diversity of experience, many people *don't* get severe depression for 3 - 5 days as part of getting a cold. (If you're one of those people, please re-evaluate everything you have ever heard me say about the importance of disease prevention in light of the knowledge that *these* are the stakes I'm playing for, the stakes I thought we were *all* playing for.)
