in times of a deadly pandemic, i think we need to define a few rules of friendship that were logical before but are somehow controversial now, such as:

friends don& #39;t put their friends& #39; lives at risk without their consent.

if you don& #39;t want to isolate, fine. but then give your friends and loved ones who are shielding a decent chance of avoiding getting infected by you. anything else shows a pretty blatant disregard for their actual literal life.

and I feel like if you& #39;re going to claim that you& #39;re someone& #39;s friend or that you love them, you should also value the fact that they are alive and do your best to keep it that way
