2. I'm from California, and I'm disappointed even in California

Outside of the lower San Francisco Bay Area, indoor dining was allowed!? Movie theaters?

I remember being in the Sacramento area and seeing few people wearing masks (before the statewide mask order.) Even in the Bay Area, Ive seen groups of people who were likely friends or acquaintances getting together to eat in outdoor dining, as well as other groups of people (outside) that didn't have masks on. Even, in one case, there were a lot of people eating outdoors in a somewhat narrow downtown street in Santa Clara county (downtown streets have been closed to facilitate outdoor dining), and I only had pity for the waiters/waitresses that worked there. Even if the tables were socially distanced, I felt like that's way too many aerosols from people eating and talking to be comfortably around.
