    Got a message from a friend who said they wore a mask for 10 mins yesterday & nearly passed out. I fear that mandatory mask wearing will kill people. Many with breathing probs who should not be wearing masks will feel compelled to wear due to #masksnitch pressure. It’s all wrong.

        I ran 2.5 miles in 90+ degree heat wearing a mask a couple days ago and died. Twice. Wait no, it was a bit uncomfortable though, that’s the same right?

        His foolish tweet has, however, sparked a new genre of twitter micro novels.https://twitter.com/ann_leckie/status/1284854157506228224 …

        Got a message from a friend who said they wore a mask for 10 mins yesterday & suddenly they owned a horse & were riding around town yelling “Hi ho Silver” & brandishing a gun. It wasn’t even the right kind of mask. It’s all wrong. This must stop. https://twitter.com/812filmreviews/status/1284678988833665024 …

        I wear a mask all day at work, when I am out anywhere, and when I work out (doing HIIT). Hasn’t killed me yet. 😷

        It’s 95 here in S.C. with a heat index of 102ish. If I have to go out I wear my mask. It’s uncomfortable. It itches. I sometimes sweat like a pig at a barbecue, but I wear my dang mask. Period! I actually find it liberating. I can mouth “F you” at those not wearing theirs

        I mean, if their mask was a plastic bag maybe? But if it is, you’re definitely doing it wrong...pic.twitter.com/2I9nSTjohm

        His friend had a panic attack if it is true. He should encourage him to seek treatment if he was a real friend instead of blaming vital public health measures and should encourage everybody else to wear masks to protect his friend who has panic attacks when he puts on a mask.

        It helps if you take the mask out of the plastic it came in...

        I think most that are “mask injured” had preexisting conditions.
