Long COVID isn’t rare.

According to the WHO, about 15 in 100 people still have symptoms 12 months after COVID-19 infection.

Prevent infection. Prevent reinfection. Protect your health.

Talarico is running for Senate and this is all he could be bothered to post. On here and on Twitter. Surely, he can do better than this?

Spreading Black excellence: Cheryl McKissack Daniel, Peter Robinson discuss her important new book Even though she has undertaken many commissions, the title of Cheryl McKissack Daniel’s new book is liable to strike some as hyperbolic.

BOOKS: The title of Cheryl McKissack Daniel’s new book — “The Black Family Who Built America, The McKissacks, Two Centuries of Daring Pioneers” — is liable to strike some, particularly white academics, as hyperbolic and even presumptuous.

What are their specific policy proposals to help Black people?
I don't want to hear about working people bullshit.
Where are your policies to uplift the Black working class?

100% this. I imagine the CMO was begging them not to (because marketing sure as hell knew their customers), but the board dgaf.

When I was a child, I knew my elder years would be hard.
Somehow, I just KNEW.
And I was right.
I had no idea it would involve this shit.
I still can't believe I face retirement under this regime, with a possible world war looming & a destitute country.
Thanks protest & sit out voters.
So much.

Same. It's terrifying. Plus, I'm jobless, making it even worse to think about the future.

some friendly advice: if you’re not Black and you see two Black people talking to each other on here, consider the possibility that the dialect is more unfamiliar to you than you think it is and the unspoken communication that is obvious to them may not be obvious to you

Flew out of LAX and every single Emirates Air flight was canceled.

The economic impacts of this war, including on oil prices and global trade, are likely to be far reaching.

What's the end game? This is what happens when you put meatheads in charge. Go do another shitty pull up, Pete Hegseth.

“There is no horseshoe. There is only white people who are at best uncomfortable with any power being held in Black hands. Those white people are at all points of the ‘left-right’ spectrum.”

Only in Platner Stan Fantasyland does a Blackwater Nazi have "exactly what's needed to combat racism & fascism."
He literally just praised a Holocaust-denying neo-Nazi & thinks rape victims bring it upon themselves because of how they dress & this is the POS "progressives" want in the Senate.
🤦🏾‍♀️

“The Williams Institute at the UCLA School of Law finds that, in 2024, 43% of US adults held at least one stigmatizing belief about people living with HIV (PLWH), an increase from 31% in 2021.”

Every election builds from the past. If Al Gore had been elected, the entire future of this nation would be completely different from where we are now. If we'd elected H. Clinton? Same thing. VP Harris? Same thing. Every election is the most important ever, because each one shapes the future.

I agree. Moral choices are their own rewards, knowing you did the right thing.

These people are like their orange god in that they believe only in quid pro quo. And never EVER make meaningful sacrifices.

White House talking points for congressional Republicans say we're not at war, we're just in "major combat operations against Iran" lol

Looks like the fence is going back up at the MDC in Los Angeles. The previous iteration of the fence made the sidewalk nearly impassable and caused serious issues for wheelchair-bound Angelenos trying not to fall into the street, but I'm sure they've fixed that issue this time around..

Emotional regulation. Being able to regulate yourself well is hard, not glamorous and doesnt garner confetti but it is the most important skill any of us can have. Literally everything else can be missing but if you got that, you are really on your way

BREAKING: SCOTUS shadow docket decision rules in favor of forced outing of trans students, reinstating a lower court ruling against California's law prohibiting forced outing. Also references forcing teachers to misgender trans students. Horrific precedent.

How typical is it of mostly stupid-as-rocks rank and file US Republicans that rather than marching purposefully and triumphantly into conservative, right wing, authoritarian fascism, they fall backwards into it, not understanding anything about it, what it is, why it's bad, the costs, the risks?

This sucks. Love Bruce Campbell. Fun story though: when I was a kid running a BBS out of my house without my parents knowing, a friend gave Campbell the BBS number during a press junket for Army of Darkness. And he called it! Left a message behind for the board users. It was super cool of him.
