Wearing the Mask
Dang, I haven’t written anything for the blog yet? I’m irretrievably lazy.
I’ve got no reviews ready to go, no interesting comics news I’ve heard of, so I’ll drop back on current events.
Y’all as dang sick of this COVID-19 crap as I am? ‘Cause I’m dang sick of it.
My parents are in the high risk group. My siblings and I are all closer than we want to be to the high risk group. Most of my friends are in the high risk group. And even among folks who aren’t in the high risk group? It’s not like we haven’t seen plenty of young, healthy people getting sick and dying from this damned disease.
And the jackholes who rule us are champing at the bit to sacrifice us all for a few billionaires’ short-term economic gains.
And aside from that, I’ve got nothing particularly important to say — aside from wash your hands, keep up your social distancing, yell at your congressthings.
Okay, I’ll say this: Masks suck. Especially if you wear glasses. Because your breath fogs up your glasses almost immediately. It’s extremely irritating.
Here’s the only way I’ve found to make your glasses fog up less while you’re wearing a mask. Try breathing downward.
How do you breathe downwards? If you were ever in marching band in school, it’s how you play a flute. Angle your lips downwards and blow. Your glasses will still fog up a bit, but much less than they would if you were breathing normally.
So there’s my tiny bit of advice.
Everyone be careful out there. Please stay healthy.

I wish I could find nice masks that had designs around here without having to wait a week or longer to get them in. A Spidey designed mask would look cool right about now

My mom made a few and has been sending them around to everyone in the family. They’re kinda plain, but I figure as long as they keep us safe, I won’t mind if they aren’t fashionable.
On the other hand, I want this one so bad: https://artofcoop.threadless.com/designs/chop/accessories/face-mask
