I never stopped wearing a mask. I'm very possibly immunocompromised and don't want long covid. During lockdowns I'd always get dickhead men trying to intimidate me for wearing a mask and pick a fight about it. 🙄

But I really wish it would become just normal and accepted to mask up like in Asia. It's polite, it's hygienic, doesn't really cost much and you could be saving yourself or someone else a nasty flu. And frankly anyone who doesn't do it in a pandemic is not being logical.
