You get a cool-looking bandanna or a shemagh. Those count as "masks". You then roll it down around your neck when you go back outside. I have several. They rock.

Six months ago, I'd have been arrested if I'd walked into the grocery store (to say nothing of the bank) looking like I do now, and not just because they'd think I was there to rob the place. Up until about two weeks ago, New York had a law that made it illegal to wear a mask in public, except on Halloween, because anarchists in 1885 (when they passed the goddamn thing) liked to mask up in public and rob banks. Later on, it was regularly used as a tool of repression. I'm glad it's gone. It normalizes anonymity in public. A man is slightly tempted to go rob (((a bank))).

Plus, when I wear a shemagh, people actually give me that six-foot bubble.
