Ever since I read Unmasking Autism I've just been wearing sunglasses everywhere whenever I leave my house or am at work and likewise wear big noise cancelling headphones at the same time. That with the black N95 mask means my whole head is just like in armor and I look like I'm hiding that I'm secretly a reanimated mummy.

And it's so good. Existing in the world is so much less stressful. It's wonderful.
