LA Community Fridges Made with Softr, the easiest way to turn your data into portals and internal tools.

If you're in LA and need help with food during this federal government failure, we have some community fridges.

If you have the means, please help with monetary donations to our food banks, they can get a lot more food for your dollars at wholesale than you can at the supermarket.

Two 3D-imaged mice comparing how SARS-CoV-2 and influenza spread through the body. The left image, labeled Spike S1, shows red fluorescent signals across many organs, indicating that SARS-CoV-2 propagated widely throughout the body. The right image, labeled Influenza HA, shows red signals largely limited to the lungs and liver, demonstrating influenza’s more localized infection pattern. The figure caption notes that SARS-CoV-2 affects multiple organs, unlike influenza.

Not All Masks Are Equal PROTECTION a picture of KN95 Worn to protect the health yourself and of others and to provide cover for those unable to mask or vaccinate ABUSE a picture of gator masks Worn to protect the identity of those committing human rights abuses against vulnerable members of our communities

KNOW who you are dealing with by the type of mask they wear

MIKEE IS RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING!

My first job in LA was at Natural Wonders at the Beverly Center. I had some pretty random interactions, but my favorite was selling an alligator statue to Jackie Chan and helping his body guards take it down to his Jackie Chan mobile, a tricked out Montero Sport.

What are we doing? 😕🇺🇸

N95 masks are PPE.

They’re designed to protect the wearer from covid, airborne viruses, wildfire smoke & more.

They’re a public health tool.

Gaitors & bandanas are face coverings worn by ICE goons who want to conceal their identity because they’re kidnapping people

They’re not the same.

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:

1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money
3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) We’ll find WMDs
6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long

All lies.

Los Angeles COVID wave is definitely churning up. My elderly Aunt and her roomie are both down with it & they stay home most days. I'm humbly asking all of you, once more, to please mask up out there, (especially at large gatherings this weekend with your fathers, or at the #NoKingsDay protests).

As I hear them every day for hours, I know #losangeles has a ton of leaf blowers. They are also very effective against icy smoke. 😉

Screenshot of scene from the old game Oregon Trail. There is a green graphic on a black background. The graphic is of an ox pulling a wagon and below it is says YOU HAVE LISTENED TO RFK Jr.

Too many people focus on the minutia of WHY someone gets detained by ICE. Were they here illegally? Did they break the law? What did they do wrong?

They legitimize the horrors ICE perpetrates by insinuating if a person has done one of those things, they “deserve” it.

No one deserves this.

A cartoon Putin rides Trump like a horse, the meme text reads "Chicken Jockey!!"

CHICKEN JOCKEYYYY!!!!

I saw someone referred to the new variant NB 1.8.1 as "Nimbus", so I'm gonna roll with that. Tut-tut, it looks like rain!

How upset would you be, if at 4 years old, your child's DNA is recorded into a database that’s explicitly setup for criminals because it is assumed your child will be a criminal?

From what we've seen over his lifetime, TACO applies to a lot more than tariffs.

Disabled people are begging for your solidarity right now.

This admin is embracing eugenics at break neck speed.

They’re setting the stage to blame us for our disabilities so they can remove access to care, social supports, medications & more.

Fight back (and wear a mask when you do!)

Given the recent statements by Dr Makary about how we should give cooking classes to diabetics in lieu of insulin…

I want to remind everyone that disability is not a moral failing.

It’s not something you can “try harder” your way out of.

A healthy diet & lifestyle doesn’t make you bulletproof.

“Razor blade throat” and “more frequent coughing” is how symptoms of this summer’s variant are being described. 😷 #maskup An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of not sounding like RFK Jr. by fall.

They shutter clinics, shut down care
And claim that fairness isn’t fair
They toss out meds, they close the gate
Then tell the sick, “Just lose some weight.”

They slash up SNAP, say “earn your keep!”
While folks burn out, no rest to reap
They scoff and sneer, “Just get in line!”
Then give your raise to Amazon Prime

They draft their laws in shadowed halls
Behind closed doors and marble walls
A thousand pages, bold and vile
They pass it with a practiced smile

✍️ #GroupPoetry project, add a stanza!

I do not trust the men in suits
With ties pulled tight just like a noose
So tight their hearts turn black as coal
They scorch the earth to match their soul

Boycotting large chains is a privilege.

Protesting is a privilege.

Moving States or countries is a privilege.

Prepping is a privilege.

Growing your own food is a privilege.

Stockpiling meds is a privilege.

Far too many of the “solutions” to fascism are inaccessible to many disabled people.
