(I gave American links because statistically those are probably the most useful: if you’d like help finding links for other countries, let me know and I will help you look.)
A P100 respirator offers slightly *more* protection to the wearer than the vaccines do. Since people who don’t *have* COVID-19 can’t *spread* COVID-19, this also prevents you from infecting others; for even greater protection of others, tape a layer of cloth over the valve on the bottom of the respirator.
If a filter falls off, it means it wasn’t screwed on tightly enough: I had the same problem my first time, but now that I’ve screwed them on tighter they stay put. A single set of filters can last for months as long as it doesn’t get wet: the way a filter wears out is that it gets clogged with fumes from the construction work you’re (presumably) *not* doing, so as long as you can still breathe through it and it hasn’t gotten wet beyond the occasional raindrop, you’re good. (Note: the ULine link is to water-resistant filters, which are hard to find on Amazon.)
Yes, you won’t be able to eat and drink indoors with your friends, and ideally you should take a break every hour or so to go outside and drink something because filtered air is quite dry, but you can have physical presence.

Wtf is this supposed to mean is “sounding Argentinian” some kind of new insult like wut???
frankly i would be terribly offended
wait if I’m understanding right, does that mean that an Argentinian stereotype is “hating Argentine nationalism”?
Because if so uhhhh… Shit. Fuck. I have to go now for completely unrelated reasons.

#anything that makes me laugh this much deserves a reblog #(context I knew about when I first read this: both sigmaleph and ericvilas are Argentinian) #(later: I saw some stuff complaining about Falklands War apologists and I think that might have been the bullfuckery referred to in the OP) #anon hate cw?
actually i devise an interpretation of the concept of “clothing” such that a shower curtain shielding me from any potential line of sight to another human being counts as not being naked, then impose it on the social reality by being the only mind interacting with the concept of clothing in this narrow domain and thus achieving unanimity
i.e. nakedness is a social construct, if nobody else is watching then you decide how naked you are
if someone else is watching then you have bigger problems
