       How to not feel like "a Mask-hole" when everyone else 
       has abandoned masking?

       While I was on my break, it was stunning to see how few people
       were masking. At times, it legitimately made me feel
       uncomfortable that I was the only one (or one of the very few)
       to be masking out of hundreds or even THOUSANDS of people at
       these gatherings.
       How have others coped with being a "mask-hole" (or, as I've also
       heard, "an unicorn") in an age where everyone thinks that the
       virus has vanished and we've all been transported back to 2018?
       For myself, I keep thinking to myself, "It's still out there, it
       still sickens people, it still kills people and I don't want to
       get other people sick or myself to get sick."
       However, I can honestly say that, at times, the weight of social
       pressure to not mask was extremely great. I'm glad that I kept
       my mask on and, hopefully, my example made it easier for others
       to keep their masks on (or to put masks on) as well.
