Selected comment quote: I, too, continue to mask, but it is getting harder and fucking harder when I’m in environments where I am literally the only person (in 10, in 100, in 1,000) wearing a mask. I continue to do it because I don’t want goddamn complications, but I’m currently doing some traveling in areas where few or no people are wearing masks.
You know, I understand this sort of comment in principle, but sometimes I hear/read stuff like that and I just think "geez, maybe more people should be autistic". Or openly LGBTQ, or religious minorities, or physically disabled, or freaking something so they can get some perspective on this "Gosh, I'm the only one wearing a mask!" thing.
Of course I also don't like to garden in the front during the day because people might see me, so let's not claim that I don't have layers. Anyway, since other people are like that about masks, that's all the more reason to wear one so that those people will say "Okay, there's somebody else, I'm not all alone here".
