      I’m just here for the ratio and the responses but can’t resist noting that My first thought was, “Ew, hawking up loogies into your mask after smoking a bunch of cigs is gross.”https://twitter.com/bethanyshondark/status/1423390210293997570 …

      OK, apparently it a child's mask, but even so just change the mask more often...

          There's a whole market now for foundations that stay on even while wearing a mask, because a lot of common ones will rub and the mask will look like this. The smudge on the bottom left one really makes it look like this.

          But if they did that how can they claim masks are harmful?

          There must be something wrong with the mask wearer, my kid wore masks at school the whole pandemic, for 6 hours a day, and they never got this dirty.

          My wife is a teacher—she said she only saw a mask like that when a kid had been chewing it all day

          More worrying is she apparently homeschools, so are the masks getting that dirty at home/school or is she just trying to get attention from her anti mask base? The ratio shows she may get the attention she didn't want~as in child protective services wellness check.
