Do you ever wish you picked something that didn’t require a mask full time?

It's surprisingly well ventilated, lots of hidden air holes in the bottom near my mouth, and it doesn't tend to get too hot. I'd say I prefer it to the standard face masks from covid, breathing-wise. Tends to be cool here anyway

Worst aspect is the dark lenses, helps with bright lights and sunshine, but in the evening it can be hard to see

I'm actually really grateful for it, it helps reduce my extreme social anxiety. I also use a Venetian half mask as part of a masquerade look, and that has the same effect

Sorry, I know none of this is interesting
