Had an interesting revelation recently about #microclimateAir2 
which someone might find interesting
Generally I wear pastel colored masks.. light blue, lavender, beige when wearing my #HEPA helmet
However I’m very behind in making myself& the pastels are on their last legs so for the very first time ever, paired it with navy & it was strange how the public took it
got
more than any other time & it made me think… are dark colors de-humanizing where people just act like assholes blatantly?
It’s a shame #microclimateAir discontinued the #microclimateAir2 as it really is a fantastic product. Almost made it entire night asleep in it before bizarre dream woke me bit too early
#microclimateAir3 is just as good or better..
maybe if they were flooded w/requests to bring back 2.0 they would still offer it
Ages & ages ago I’d wear saucer hats like this under some voluminous side bun, but angled severely & this look works w/ MicroclimateAir2 too
Slightly askew

Someone needs to do an explainer on the importance of a well-fitting air leak proof mask, especially w/lack of masking as the masses after 4 years are still not understanding basic step 1
Like any tool, if used improperly it can be dangerous or useless
Masks work if worn properly but unfortunately they are all less effective these days
(including N95) due to current variants being so hyper contagious
This chart was released w/ Omicron BA.1 & these estimated times are no longer close to correct which is why I suspect many who’ve been able to avoid infection to date have recently fallen ill for the first time
IMHO a mere N95 will get you about an hour in Covid saturated situations. I wear a mask & a #microclimateAir2 
should I have to take the #NYC subway but an elastomeric works also
Ventilation matters
Iota carageenan nasal spray matters
HEPA matters
#Novavax x2 of updated booster helps toofor me it seems to have boosted my #immuneSystem 
& buys me more time w/all the other mitigations mentioned
As I told the pharmacy clerk when he was surprised I didn’t have insurance while outfitted in a #microclimateAir2 + & said “clearly I like to live on the edge” & gestured at my
God forbid I need it, pay out of pocket
My spouse has insurance through work but adding me was astronomical
#dementiaReimagined goes into how it’s BETTER to be destitute & get #medicaid b/c care cost will bankrupt you
This is why I’m hyper-vigilant about avoiding #carcinogens #covid #etc
Prevention is worth it long term
I’m OBVIOUSLY NOT a Dr or scientist of ANY sort but my humble opinion based on my anecdotal experience is #Novavax , it’s pretty great
Keeping in mind I am still EXTREMELY cautious. Will not
around anyone EVER & mostly a recluse
If i go on the subway sans spouse will STILL always wear this #MicroclimateAir2 + #wearARespirator
Speaking of which..it’s absolutely 
to me the lack of masking
Did see an exceptionally high number of surgical yesterday, but they’re unfortunately useless in 2023
