The Loneliness of the Long COVID Autist
Wherein our heroine describes 5.5 years of long COVID and how this unadapted body has navigated the so-called health care system and the limits of a party-crashing chronic illness.
Because so many people posting about getting #COVID recently, I am reposting link to my Substack piece about #LongCOVID, because near end is a list of things to do if you get COVID to avoid LC. Please feel free to share it with anyone you think it could help.

Hey Merrick Garland, fuck you forever. Through your inaction, you enabled this blitzkrieg against the rule of law and democracy.

The "he's not gonna listen to her" reactions are missing many points. Lots of other people are also hearing it. Lots of people can see him hearing it, then weigh what she's said with what he'll do. Lots of people can see her refusal to surrender these ancient teachings to the latest face of empire

The Supreme Court ruled corporations were allowed to donate unlimited amounts to politicians in 2010.
It only took them 6 years to take complete control of the government and 15 years to mark sure their voices are the only ones the masses ever hear again.

A retro blue VW van miraculously survives deadly Los Angeles fire
A surprising AP photograph of an undamaged Volkswagen van surrounded by destruction from a Los Angeles wildfire has astonished viewers.
Preston Martin figured the retro blue Volkswagen van he slept in for a year during college was a goner, given that he parked it in a Malibu neighborhood just before the Palisades fire.
So the surfboard maker was stunned to find that the vehicle survived. βThere is magic in that van,β Martin said.
