start using a waterpik (much better than floss) and brush with sensodyne and you'll be almost pain free in a few months.

what most people don't know is that flossing can only get about 2mm under the gumline but plaque can build up as far as 4mm so some people can still get degeneration of the jaw bone even if they floss twice a day and a waterpik will solve that.

u shud still floss u dumb b*tch but also i looked on ebay and they were cheap af open box so i got one lol. ebay ftw

word I have the same rigout

You can find goggles to fit the nosepiece and accommodate glasses, but they're tricky. I found these, there are several permutations of the same design floating around: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B084VJCBKH

Could be especially hard if you have a small face though. they're definitely made for a face larger than mine, an average height male

It would be less rare in a country with large parts of the population doing subsistence farming, so I think it is a fairly reasonable threat or at least a threat that is hard to quantify.

The great thing about pure particulate filters is that they just get better with time, so until you find it problematic to breath through you can keep using the same ones.

Edit: Ok, the great thing about particulate filters that are rated for it, is that they protect you against Corona. I suppose I should have written "a" instead of "the" great thing.

quote:

BEDFORD, N.H. — A “non-masked voting” tent in New Hampshire collapsed around midday Tuesday, sending a 72-year-old poll worker to the hospital and forcing election officials to find another option for voters who preferred to cast ballots while not wearing a mask.

The incident happened in the town of Bedford, an upscale community carried by Trump in 2016, Mitt Romney in 2012 and John McCain in 2008. Non-masked voters went into the heavy-duty tent set up outside the town’s polling place, Bedford High School, rather than voting with thousands of others inside the gymnasium.

The weather here was cold and blustery, and around midday, a strong gust blew across the parking lot outside the high school and briefly tossed the tent into the air. “It flew up, fell over, collapsed,” said Bill Klein, the polling place’s moderator.

One poll worker suffered a laceration to his face; Klein had to find a way to move “non-masked” voters into a room inside the school, safely separated from voters wearing masks to protect themselves and others from the possible spread of the coronavirus.

The falling tent narrowly missed striking the poll worker in the eye.

“It’s been one hell of a year,” Klein said. “I cannot wait until this is over.”

I'm not as careful as I should be so I'm surprised I haven't gotten knocked on my rear end yet. Probably a matter of time tbh, there's a lot of people in my office not wearing a mask + I'm the toucher of others' computers.

Years from now the math will be done to figure out exactly how many people literally lost their lives, to vote in the 2020 election. I don't think you will be among them though, if it only sometimes fogged it was probably mostly sealing when you inhaled.

what's the best way to sanitize a half mask and the filters (i got those 7093s too)? because i read you can wash the mask itself with soap and water, but i would want to take the filters off obviously and idk what to use to clean those before removal, or if i just need to wipe the whole thing down

i've read to use diluted bleach (i barely have any) or some kind of ammonia (don't have any), and alcohol is bad for it but i'm not sure why.

Read the manufacturers instructions for the cleaning, alcohol is good for most masks nowadays
