Breakthrough study: COVID-19 reactivates dormant breast cancer, triggering deadly metastasis. Cancer survivors who got COVID had 4.5× higher cancer-related deaths and 1.4× greater breast cancer. MASK UP!! Protect yourself from Covid, which is airborne

I love the outpouring of love for David Lynch.

I don't love how many of the people who are remembering him have stopped masking in public.

If you've stopped masking, you're why he had to choose to spend his final years isolated at home.

I don't know what to do with that anger.

@who.int Director-General's remarks at a media briefing on 10 December 2024:

"We cannot talk about COVID in the past tense. It’s still with us, it still causes acute disease and Long COVID, and it still kills.

The world might want to forget about COVID-19, but we cannot afford to."

A paper collage on a yellow background. A woman's face with a pleasant expression is seemingly floating in an expanse of stars. There are two honeybees on her face, one crawling into her nose, and the other on one of her eyes. There is text on her forehead and below her, reading: "Time, Where Is Thy Sting? If you're scared, push enter to run."

Sting of Time, 2024

A hand-cut paper collage. The background is a blazing forest fire with orange and yellow tones. There is a comic book "VRR-KOW" and explosion pasted on the upper left corner, and a blue model of a SARS-CoV2 molecule pasted on the upper right and the bottom right. In the middle lower section of the collage, there is a comic book cutout of a villain spewing green energy onto a victim. The text pasted reads: "Life with Covid. A pandemic never out of season - disease of disparity. We hope this virus horrifies you."

I wrote this little tune in April of 2023 😷 #maskup

Collective denial,
A dissonance viral,
I don't wanna see your smile
If it means I could get worse,
You're so glad to spread the curse,
You won't be smiling in a hearse or in a hospital bed

a photo of fridge poetry that reads: you melt me, soft & slow, like smoke or perfume

four square magnets, three purple and one green with various patterns are below some fridge poetry which reads: "so, this ferocious pleasure must be your will, your instrument of sublime & animal passion, I must steel my porcelain spirit"

fridge poetry that reads: what is this bastard passion born from? be it wicked fever? brilliant, broken, delicious, secret

busted out the #fridgepoetry

A white nonbinary person with buzzed brown hair and green eyes holds a black and white tuxedo cat on their chest. They are wearing a blue tie-dyed, long sleeved T-shirt and half of their face is hidden by the cat.

Benny is the cuddliest of my three cats
