WHO IS THAT MASKED DIVA? (Featuring Twinkles the Intern)

Hi! I'm Twinkles the Intern! The Invisible Diva has asked me to write this blog post for her. She said to tell you that she's at a spiritual retreat detoxing her soul after being in quarantine for three months. My new boyfriend, Quentin "Just Call Me Q" O'Nonne, thinks she's detoxing her liver based on the number of wine bottles we found in her recycling bin.
Twinkles: Intern


It's been a long quarantine for us all, but, now that we won the War On COVID-19,  Q and I decided to visit my Aunt Donatella and Uncle Pete! We thought they'd be excited, but when I rang the doorbell, Uncle Pete shouted, "Get 6 feet away from this house, or you'll be swimming 6 feet under with the fishes."
"But, Uncle Pete!" I said, "It's Twinkles!"
He flung the door open and stood with my aunt by his side, both of them masked, gloved, wearing surgical gowns, and each carrying a weapon of defense. As Aunt Donatella aimed a can of  Bactine directly at my mouth,  Uncle Pete sprayed the air with Windex.
Uncle Pete: Windex Whisperer
Between coughs, my boyfriend shouted, "Stop being gullible! COVID-19 is a scam perpetrated by leftist billionaires to take down America and force us into fascism. It's not real and is being promoted by State-Run News. Wake Up! There is no virus. All the doctors and patients you see are actors. I know because I researched it on YouTube!"
Q O'Nonne: YouTube Researcher
Aunt Donatella  shouted for Uncle Pete to get the Holy Water. When he returned with the family font, she dipped her hands in the basin and flicked the contents at Q while shouting, "Begone, demon! In the name of Tony Fauci, Patron Saint of the Socially Distant, I compel you!"
Q rolled his eyes at me, "Come on Twinkles. There's no use hanging around with these sheeple who get their news from newspapers, magazines, scientists and doctors. We know the truth.  COVID-19 is no worse than the flu. Besides, the only people dying are old people like your aunt and uncle. I saw it on YouTube."
Aunt Donatella shouted something in Italian, spun in a circle, and spit on the ground three times.
"What the heck is she doing?" asked Q.
"Look it up on the YouTube," Uncle Pete shouted before he slammed the door. But, I already knew the answer:

Aunt Donatella's Curses: More dangerous than COVID_19?
I felt very confused, so decided to visit my good friend, Rose O'Shannon McDohicky. She works at Pet Smart which means she is practically a vet, which makes her almost a scientist!
"Twinkles," She hissed, when she saw me enter the store,  "Put on this mask right away!"
"Oh, I won't wear a mask. My new boyfriend said that they are part of a plot to make us breath in our own carbon dioxide so we become brain dead and can be controlled by the government. He said Big Mask is now as dangerous as Big Pharma!"


She sighed, "Twinkles, is this the boyfriend who has the skin tone of a mushroom from spending all his waking hours in his parents' basement looking up conspiracy theories on-line?"
"That's him!" I replied, proudly.
"Look, Twinkles. I'm no expert. But, there are plenty of very smart people who devote their lives to studying these things. They say that wearing a mask helps decrease the spread of the water droplets that contain the virus. We spread those through sneezing, coughing, even laughing and talking. When you sneeze or cough, do you cover your mouth?"
"Of course!" I said.
"Good!" she replied, "Think of this in the same way. Also? It's store policy to wear one, here. So, let's pick something out from these super cute cloth masks with charcoal filters with your favorite breed of dog or cat on the front!"
"Wait! I can use masks to accessorize? Why didn't someone tell me that in the first place?! I'm in!"

Masks: Fashion statements
