Type of Mask:  Soft fabric mask with a removable filter

‍

I got this mask from: Vistaprint, a design company. I ordered online in September (during pre-election Postal Service woes) and got the mask and filters in the mail after about 10 days.  

‍

I chose this mask because: I wanted something practical for the long haul. After having associated masks with discomfort and hassle for the first months of the pandemic, my sister told me she had found comfortable masks that her kids wore all day without any issue. I went with a plaid aesthetic because it seemed to match the autumn season.

‍

‍I feel vital, liberated without my mask.‍

‍

My mask enables me to: feel safer, whether or not I am actually safe. ‍

When I think of #Logistics during this pandemic, these three words come to mind: stuck, slow, out-of-stock.
