We’re having a Pride celebration here in little ol’ Morris, Minnesota this afternoon, 2-5pm at Eastside Park.
I might stroll by this afternoon.

“masks are required”. Is that common for many outdoor events in the US now? It seems a long time since I’ve seen photos of the majority of people masked in public, let alone everyone (ICE thugs excepted).
It’s a good idea for health reasons, but also for gross safety reasons — if you’re a member of an oppressed group, you should make it harder for the oppressors to identify you.
It’s still a good idea in a crowd, and establishing that standard helps those of us who have to wear them for health reasons
Wearing a mask in larger groups of people in a virus pandemic is generally a good idea. As to the identification thing, pretty sure there are studies showing that you’re harder to identify wearing sunnies than wearing an FFP3, at least by people. Facial recognition tech, not so much.
If Morris was like one of the Southern Maga swamp places, a mask may be a wise disguise.

@Fry’s just saying what we’ve all know for a very long time. Kind of ironic that a woman who built her fortune on a series of books decrying racism and populist demagogues has morphed into a bigoted wingnut. Actually I’ll take all that back. Hypocrisy isn’t ironic.
Ah, Morris seems like a tiny patch of sanity in the huge area of American insanity.
