I've drawn one of these - they're stunning. Pretty sure @petrathepostdoc.bsky.social has done a typically impressing drawing of one, too.

I was enrolled 4 NHS Long Covid studies, starting in April 2021

One lost funding in April 2025

I disenrolled from the other 3 when RFK was confirmed

I just disenrolled from an American Cancer Society monitoring study I have been in since 2016

This is breaking my heart

The science we are losing

Example of what my current #crochet project will turn into, this cute little dress I made for myself a few years ago.

Skein of yarn sitting on a table next to a crochet project, a lacy dress. Yarn is grey, teal, orange, yellow, reddish pink and green. Tablecloth is yellow with slices of citrus fruit.

Been working on a #crochet project, I'm going to gift/trade this dress to a shop owner I adore for a pair of cool overalls my kiddo loves.

The transience is the beauty of it. Of course it won't last, so hold on to it now and when you have bad times, remember the happy ones. They are what help you get thru it.

Pretty happy, honestly. I never was able to enjoy the little things in life before, there was always something tugging me back and telling me it wouldn't last.

My PTSD has been really triggered lately, but unlike in the past when I wouldn't be able to stay regulated and calm, I've managed to not let it consume me or get stuck in old thought patterns.

The softest? My 13 year old came up to me and hugged me so tight for so long. I was feeling anxious and sad and I think they just knew I needed some love.

Outfit of the day! I made this little crochet dress a few years back and thought it looked perfect with the earrings and necklace I made.

A pair for me. Unfortunately, I've got to get another stand of the butterfly beads because I don't have enough to repeat the pattern for the other earring, but I love the idea. I really just wanted to make myself something cutesy and feminine

Been working on reconnecting with my indigenous heritage and the lessons my Lakota grandmother, my unci, taught me.

Decided a few weeks ago to bead the brim of a hat my sister gave me. The more I engage with my culture, the more I remember, the more I feel myself.
