Thank God It's... Mickey?
Life update: Still sick. Even more tired.
Thoughts: The world is one weird place. Evidence - The Mickey Mouse gas mask.
Apparently, these gas masks were produced in 1942, to protect children in case of a chemical attack on the United States. They were designed as a cartoon character so that wearing gas masks would be less scary and more like a game, with the hope that children would carry their masks with them and wear them often, improving their chances of surviving in an attack.
