Here are my thoughts on masks. (Note, your mileage may vary.):
The masking mania is spreading. You may be able to avoid it or ignore it and if this is the case, more power to you.
But, you many be forced by circumstances to have to have a on mask to conduct buisness, shopping, or work. Here are my tips:
1) Try ignoring the mandate. Walk into a store with no mask. If no one confronts you or asks you, then victory! You will be surprised how many people say nothing, If someone does hassle you, just put one on assuming you have to get something there or need to conduct business for me I don't want to spend time arguing with a Karen -- but see the other points below.
2) Don't buy an "upgrade" mask with silly pictures or designs on it. Even avoid Trump masks. You do not want to buy into this mask shit being a permanent "thing". Use one of the standard blue disposable masks.
3) Distress your mask. Make sure there are tips and tears in it and keep it crumpled up in your pocket. When you put it on it is a sign of "fuck you". I have had no Karen's confront this yet, hey it is a mask . Plus the tears help you breath easier.
4) Pull the mask down off your nose and practice breathing thru your nose. It is better for you anyway.
Again you will be surprised at how many people don't even see this trick, hey he is wearing a mask. This completely avoids restricted breathing and CO2 build up problems. (If you have a stuffy nose this won't help, see above for tearing holes in mask).
Have fun, fuck staying safe, Live Dangerously!
