$18.95 each? CBS remains scum. Of course, I will probably still buy the science blue one at some point anyway. Please try to act surprised when I do. ;)

I didn't even bother to look at the prices. Anything from that site is bullshit overpriced, but if it gets a McMansion Trekkie to wear a mask, I'm fine with it.

Go to Redbubble for ST stuff that's actually affordable. Though there aren't as many as there should be because artists aren't going back and converting older work to the new goods like masks and backpacks.

Those are coool. But $18.95? A bit steep. And yet, I kinda want one.

A mask that indicates you are a red shirt? Is that wise? A Borg mask? Someone will make that into a political statement I'm sure.

I don't even want to talk about how overpriced Trek stuff is nowadays. If it gets somebody to put on a damn mask, it works for me.

And that we agree. Hell, much as it revolts me, they can wear a mask with MAGA on it if they will just wear the fucking mask.

China's been making MAGA and pals masks since February-March at least, so they don't even have to pay Trump prices.

Yeah, but I have yet to see one of his cult wearing the damn things. They certainly don't at his rallies.
