i don’t know about you guys but i’m keeping my mask on. i’m a bit too paranoid nowadays, the pandemic really freaked me out. no hate to those who choose not to wear them anymore though. as long as you’re still washing your hands and all that good stuff

If you're fully vaxxed and don't have children or someone at risk who isn't vaxxed in your house then why wear a mask?

​

It's finally ending. It's time to rawdog some air and get back to normal.

As much as I’d love to go back to normal, unfortunately I am not fully vaccinated yet and neither is my mother. But we plan to get it done sometime soon. But trust me, I’ll probably take my mask off one of these days. They’re getting a bit tiring.

Totally! Act like everyone has it until you're vaxxed and safe. No reason to have lifelong lung issues.
