npub1vuag09u3hdncn8e08hz4smt2dpu83e7epupzf4v5wxtgga8dmqsspqkm9m (npub1vua…km9m) The whole social intercourse experience seems to be irrevocably broken. Whe. I arrived on new York in 1983, even on crowded sidewalks, in stores strangers would also say please thank you and excuse me, without anxiety or guilt.

No in the grocery store people say nothing, for fear of being attacked or getting infected. "excuse if I get by" is now some implied threat.
