wore a fuckin respirator on a plane yesterday for this reason and got a lot of weird looks and even one chucklefuck at the airport trying to be cute about it, zero regrets
I avoided going into the office for as long as possible and when I could avoid it no longer I bought one of those industrial-ass 3M masks and very performatively wear it until I'm sitting down at my desk because fucking nobody wears a mask :(
The only reason I actually wear one anymore is because I don't want people to see my face between the RBF and the terrible stigma that is unremovable facial hair. Indicating my team is just a bonus.
