Canada's allies rebuff its requests to join in accusations against India

Weeks before Trudeau's announcement, Canada had asked its closest allies, including Washington, to publicly condemn the killing, according to a Western official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss a diplomatically sensitive matter. But the requests were rebuffed, the official said.

I get routinely mocked in public for wearing a mask. (fake-liberal bastion of Austin, TX). If I weren't a tall, large man, it would likely be much worse.

Had a woman mutter the f-word at me under her breath in passing, for wearing one just the other day, as I was walking out of an HEB. No, not frick. The other f-word. The homosexual slur. Said that shit at just the right moment when I was just outside the store, rolling groceries to my vehicle, and unable to react in time. It's just one example, I have many stories.

I am boosted with the good stuff. I just don't want to get COVID and nobody around me is masking up, even after COVID exposure reports. A friend of mine got COVID back in March of this year, and their sense of smell and taste still has not returned. It has dramatically harmed their quality of life, and they're not sure for how long. Could be forever.

I don't know how to not be targeted for abuse by....other Texans, and still stay safe right now.

Maybe another spike would give my safe behaviors more cover, because there would be more people masking up then? I don't know. I know it's a strange way to think about it, but I'm at my wit's end as far as what to do.
