Being in the woods was so fierce

Just sayin'

This is another large loss to our surveillance capabilities.

At this point I have no clue how we will pick the variant for next years Covid vaccine.

We will lose the ability to know when convergence (XFG) or other high mutation changes occur (BA.3.2 we’ve been monitoring)

Cryptic lineages too.

You’re so Cupcakke for that

‘Solidarity is always the way forward’ In a Q&A with Prism, abolitionist organizer Kelly Hayes discusses her new anthology “Read This When Things Fall Apart,” featuring encouraging letters from movement leaders, writers, and activists

Here's my most recent interview about the book. "You’re a human being. Don’t treat yourself as disposable—that’s the logic of the deathmakers. Make yourself whole. You don’t just deserve healing and joy; you need those things. We need you here, on earth, in your community, where you belong."

Do you feel like the only one who still wears a mask at home in 2025 when people are still sick? Well guess what? You're in good company - thank you, Christina Applegate!

My work covers my pharmacy visits so YAYY I’m finally getting my COVID booster and flu shot 🥳🥳

FUCK ICE

The time to organize with your neighbors and your community is right now.

“Prison abolitionist Mariame Kaba has…called prisons “death-making institutions.” The rise in incarceration (& a skyrocketing of immigrant detention), coupled w/ the nation’s lax approach to Covid-19 & health care behind bars, makes her characterization (again) a frighteningly accurate prophecy.”

Some of y’all are so fucking weird when it comes to disability and A LOT of y’all are even weirder when it comes to being fat???

please be safe and alert. have whistles with you, put the ICIRR hotline in your phone, have a plan in place for what you are going to do should you encounter agents. if you are in the lakeview area until 7pm and need a safe place, DM me.

this is now outdated but sharing for awareness - around 11:45AM today 🧊 was on the strip - this is a video my coworker took outside progress bar.

Hearing reports of tear gas in Wrigleyville from multiple sources. For non-Chicagoans, Wrigleyville is an affluent, mostly-white neighborhood surrounding Wrigley Field.

Chicago's brown and Black communities are still taking the brunt of migra violence, but no neighborhood is immune any longer.

Transphobic as hell they double booked our slot and are forcing us to move to a 9 pm slot TWO DAYS before our show so if for some reason you are banned from hydrate and need something to do this friday come to Masc Era: Oops All Clowns now at 9 pm. 🫠

food banks have already been under pressure over the past several years, and with SNAP benefits expiring they're going to be the only safety net for a lot of people

please donate what you can. $100 can feed several families for a month because of the discounts and purchasing power they have

People should absolutely be writing about how ICE's occupation of their cities is transforming life in these places, and they should be publishing it in print on paper - not just social media posts. There needs to be a record of this. Things are changing in measurable ways for the worse every day.

If you are on ICE watch in the Rogers Park vicinity please have a buddy and exercise extreme caution. ICE has assaulted verifiers today and arrested at least one of our people. If you are vulnerable to ICE in this area, I recommend staying inside if possible.

All hands on deck, folks — we gotta pass this NEXT WEEK!

Call your state reps TODAY.

Sign up to canvass.

Sign up to phone bank. (links coming later today)

We need you to get in the fight with us!

If you still mask & talk about covid I just want to say thank you. It makes me feel less alone as a disabled person. I know it’s mostly disabled people advocating for themselves but most people either abandoned us lot ago or never stood by us. We have to stand together as we always have. 🤎

A photograph of a melted power strip

It's getting cold. Annual reminder never to plug any sort of heating appliance into a power strip or any extension cord below 12 gauge (directly into the wall is always best). You're only as safe as your dumbest neighbor.

YOUR MIND?!!

Hiiiiii

I'm high risk. I went out earlier & got an Uber driver wearing a surgical mask. I thanked him for masking. He said he always does and has never gotten sick. I gave him my spare sealed 3M Auras & tipped extra. I think being reminded that some folks still care about others made both our days better.
