Hell people here are sweating their balls off in fucking gyms yet right next to them is some other mofo with only a perspex screen separating them. Fuck that shit.
I felt absolutely fine in the cinema here. But no i wouldn't sit through the movie if i had to keep the mask ON.

Covid is aerosolized in its spread. Being indoors for a long period of time, with or without a mask - if there is someone infected with the virus in the theater, regardless of distance, the chance of becoming infected is high. With enough time, the chances approach 100%
Think of it like smelling smoke. If someone is smoking at the other end of the theater, you will eventually smell that smoke. That "smell" is live active virus. A mask will delay it, but it will not stop it.
Just because other venues are open, does not make them safe. In fact, if you look at the numbers, you see that the opposite is true.
And dying of Covid would be a blessing compared to the long-haul destruction that happens to most people's bodies (even asymptomatic). If you enjoy sex, don't get Covid. You will likely live, but your heart and lungs will be forever damaged - which will make it so going to the gym is no longer an option. Sex has to be short and low-impact. Hair loss, loss of taste and smell (so far, appearing to be permanent loss for some, permanent diminishment for others).
Is it worth risking all this to see an old movie?
Tell you what, let me know the answer to that in a year or two. I guarantee that many many people will wish the movie they had seen was "Back to the Future" and they had learned to build a flux capacitor so that they could stop themselves from being Covidiots and ruining their lives.....
