I just bought a face shield to go out in public. I already have a mask which covers my mouth and nose, but I see people ignoring social distancing and getting close to people and just ignoring the rules. Instead of letting some fucking old shit that doesn't give a fuck, I think it's time to take it in my own hands and truly protect myself. I wash my hands before I leave, when I get home and even during the trip if there's some heinous shit going on.

Is a face shield going too far, or is it actually a good idea?

Do whatever makes you conformable, nobody gives a shit.

These are crazy times we live in.

s it actually a good idea?

all signs point to yes

You can use a paper bag instead. Otherwise people will think you're trying way too hard to look cool.

Nah, if you can breathe it in, you can get it in through the eyes.

If I was a petty criminal I'd be jizzing my pants

I can wear my work attire and nobody gives a shit

It's smart. If everyone had that much sense infection rates would be much lower.

Can't be paranoid enough these days. Lots of people just don't give a shit or they are in denial about spreading germs.

You want to be safe, a high quality filtered gas mask. But you're still left with the problem of gloves. Think of the absolute lengths you'd need to go through to not bring it into your house. Wearing gloves is absolutely worthless.

Definitely not paranoid. I go a step beyond washing hands and just outright shower ASAP whenever I come back from leaving my apartment.

I don't want any of that garbage lingering on furniture or spreading to other rooms.
