I wear a mask but I’m basically the only one I know. And the people I live with don’t wear one at all so I am 100% confident my wearing it is literally pointless.

I see some people outside with masks but it’s those disposable/surgical ones that we know don’t do shit against covid. At that point just don’t wear one lol. I don’t know even if N95 is good enough now but it’s the one I wear.

I’ll be honest: I don’t. Mainly cuz I’ve just given up hope that this is gonna be under control anytime in the foreseeable future. I honestly think it’s the main reason for most people: Fatigue and hopelessness, as opposed to outright anti-mask hostility.

I’m autistic, so feeling something on my face did legitimately bother me, but I only stopped wearing it a few months ago. I was more willing to put up with the discomfort when I had a semblance of hope that there was some sort of light at the end of the tunnel, but eventually just threw up my hands when it became clear this is how it’s gonna be indefinitely. So my current plan can be best summed up as “Vaxxed and Unrelaxed”: Get new boosters whenever they come out, hope luck is on my side, and pray for some sort of miracle.
