Livre d'Or

This whole thing works super-poorly with poly.

It really does. As soon as we got our positive antibody tests, J's partner S came over, and S mentioned that hir husband's girlfriend was visiting for the weekend because her parents are moving in with her soon so she's about to self-quarantine for three weeks to be certain she's safe for them to live with, and I had quite a moment of feeling this was already more people than I wanted in my bubble even though I can't catch covid again! (I know all the caveats for that claim.)

I have found it interesting to see how many people I know who are or have been in the play party scene are adopting a very similar risk reduction approach: get tested regularly, ask the people you interact with to do likewise, use barriers more than you'd like but maybe not as much as health officials think you should, keep having fun because life's too short to isolate yourself forever.
