I haz a sad.

Yesterday, I made the hard decision not to go to the Minnesota State Fair, either as a demonstrator or an attendee.

I was signed up to do two four-hour stints of demonstrating spinning at the Minnesota State Fair, and I just canceled, because it’s indoors, unventilated, and will be full of unmasked and unvaccinated people. Normally it's an annual gig that I love (and I love the rest of the fair, too), but I signed up before Delta, and now I just don’t think it's safe.

Totally un-Fair.

(I did enter four items in the handspinning categories, but dropoff and pickup for those is under much safer conditions.)

I think you're being brave by dropping stuff off where lots of other people are dropping stuff off.

(The available delta transmission numbers have one to three virions being sufficient for transmission, which I consider well into horrifying.)

So, yeah, un-fair but I think entirely the correct decision.
