I was at the grocery store today and only 3 people had a mask on out of 100+ :agony-minion:

      I haven’t been wearing a mask because what’s the point?

      Doing the bare minimum to prevent getting and spreading it.

          Me wearing a mask in a crowd of dozens, much less hundreds, is going to do literally fuck all.

          No, it will do the bare minimum.

          except in that case the vaccine would still at least make a difference for me.

          So does wearing a mask. And if you do get it (whether symptomatic or not) the mask also helps prevent you from giving to other people. You know, possibly killing someone because you couldn't handle a minor inconvenience.

          The point is to stack as many measures as you can, the vaccine was never enough.

                Love my P100. It really is comfy. Anxiously awaiting consumer versions that look less insane. Every newer sleeker model I've seen so far completely omits the exhale valve to comply with healthcare or (now defunct) airline standards, making you produce a personal puddle in the mask after only a brief period of wear.
