thinking about the one time I got a hate comment from someone on instagram about masking and I just made a joke about it I forget what I exactly said back but then he said that he didn’t know I had a sense of humor so that I was “cool” then and that he was sorry

So!! I did a Valentines thing with friends, and I got this really cute amazing lovely mask chain made by @matulasmercantile.bsky.social !! eee so lovely!! it’s for the KN95’s i wear when i do IV stuff but i just had to wear it out to the doctor, so i extended it for my N95 So perfect!!

My white N95 has a really cute silver chain with red and pink beads and adorable red and pink dangly hearts. it is attached with lobster claw clips to the band of my mask and it’s so adorable! I’m in pink in front of a pink flower tree. My face is blurred. i have thick shoulder length dark brown hair. my shirt has a cut out at the chest and you can see my central line. you can see the red KT tape peeking out of my short sleeves, i also have dark pink KT tape on but you can’t see it.
