I probably should now. I didn't need to much for the first couple of years of the pandemic because I basically just stayed home and only put one on when I was going to be around people.

But the issue is I can't ever seem to get a good seal and between breathing into my eyes and wearing glasses it just becomes way harder to deal with and now I'm vaccinated I don't feel as much of a thing for it.

I'll probably wear one more during cold season as I use to get one once or twice every year before the pandemic.

That said, there are still places I will wear it, like the doctor's office.

I’ve been wearing them consistently since 2020 but I’ve recently moved to Oregon where cases have been some of the lowest levels in the country and I’ve been thinking I’d like to stop soon

I wore one when the air quality was bad from the forest fires, otherwise I don't. Don't have a problem putting one on again if Covid or some other virus got bad again. But since it is summer here, wearing a mask makes me sweat to death

I'm up to date on my COVID vaccine so I only wear a mask if I'm sick

Inside with other people around, sure.

I will wear a mask if I know that I am going to be potentially packed in in a space with little in the way of positive air flow.

Never, don't see the point and invited company you won't like. Who cares if people disagree with you? It's fun to be provocative lol.
