Funny enough the pandemic was the reason I canceled my Netflix DVD subscription.
During the early days there was no information about how it spread. The DVDs are sanitized (wiping finger prints, etc.) but I wasn't sure about the sleeves. I know a number of organic things can survive for over a year without a host (fuck you ringworm) so I wanted to play it safe.
- mopenstein 3y agoAs a mail carrier during the outbreak I was deemed essential and forced to work 6 days a week. The volume increased 3 or 4 fold since everyone was at home. I touched many thousands of packages and much more mail, it took me 3 years to catch the COVID and I got it from my brother's family at Thanksgiving.
