this is a bad thing right? we all agree that this is not some "persevering through hardship" moment, its a why the fuck didn't she get sent home, she could get horrendously sick or infect others kinda moment pic.twitter.com/dBlwOf2ulr

Ugh, sorry to hear you have it, but glad it's not as bad this time. Hope you are negative again soon.

She's very young, so I already know she's going to say things out loud and do things that are not wise. A lot of people her age do not take COVID seriously at all so I wonder if she has that mindset too. Maybe, who knows. My brother said he didn't see a point in getting any more booster shots and I was so annoyed. I test frequently and will get boosters until this thing truly is like the common cold.

I totally get it! It was very dumb. I hold her bosses more accountable, tho.

Yep, I would have sent her ass home immediately and shut down the set. Losing a few days of filming until a test result comes back is nothing compared to others dying and the cost of an entire filming production being put on hold.

I was wondering if it was more - especially as a young women- she wanted to appear not difficult (which is gross bc we should never have to think that especially if we are v under the weather)
And less - a not taking it serious mindset-

She’s 20. She’s an adult. She can see and read the news and see how Covid has devastated so many people. She’s at best an idiot, and at worst a selfish arsehole.So you know what you can do with your thumbs down.

[dreamdate]

Damn it got you that mad huh? Lol

[glitterslugs]

people really seem to forget what they were like at 20 lol

I mean, I'm only a year older than Jenna and I think she was a dumbass for this too. I don't really think youth is an excuse for treating a contagious disease that has caused a worldwide pandemic flippantly. If she were junior high aged and younger I would be more understanding, but she's not. She may be a young adult, but she's still an adult nevertheless and I think we should all expect a certain level of maturity from that.

[glitterslugs]

i don't disagree for the most part, i just think that maturity varies a LOT from 17-24 depending on your circumstances and many people who get on their high horses now prob also did or said similar dumb shit back then that they probably don't even remember bc they don't think that way now

Some of us had life-threatening illnesses at 20 so it's even more insulting to see people pissing away their health.

[ari_angelique]

and some of yall seem to forget how devastating covid is. she's 20, not a child. I bet you wouldn't be saying the same shit if she were in your home possibly infecting you and your loved ones. come at me but you know its true. You would be singing a completely different tune.
