Lol. Hard to buy when that’s what the athlete himself said.

Help break the stigma around #LongCOVID: share your story by writing an op-ed! To help demystify the process of writing and pitching, we hosted a free webinar with expert guests Torie Bosch, Funmi Okunola, and Madeline Miller.

Are you going to stick to once a week? I have also heard of people taking it more often.

Yeah! Fingers crossed for you!

No one had proposed even more to me, so far, so yeah I’ll be titrating the other med for several months before I change the rapamycin again. But very interested to hear there’s interest in higher rapa doses!

I know someone else who is def doing better on more but I am not sure what that person’s exact dosage is.

So microdoses of rapamycin are going up? Anyone done the titration from 6 to 12 or 15?

Any changes in how you feel on the higher dose?

I’m at 8. I waited a month and didn’t notice a difference, then also adjusted a different med. Three months later I def have a bit more energy; I’m inclined to attribute it to the second med but it’s possible the added rapamycin just took time to make a difference.

so many people message me and ask “what is the need now? and “are all the needs met?”

the needs are endless. we are trying to patch 1000 holes. fuck ice. fuck trump.

A major challenge for our times is to avoid becoming callous. Some people seem to be truly failing the challenge.

Had a conversation with a friend earlier in the week strongly suggesting that she should get off Twitter. I usually never say anything but I have noticed that she is progressively less well. I think that platform is exacerbating this.

I can’t stop thinking about this.

It sucks that the lack of a social safety net is turning everyone into a case manager for eachother.

A healthy society wouldn't force stressed out broke people to do uncompensated case management labor for more stressed more broke people. And as usual that labor mostly falls on women and queers.

Every anti-vaxxer I encounter seems to love weird unregulated supplements. They hate Big Pharma but they love Little Pharma, Big Pharma’s younger sibling who grew up without any adult supervision.

Holy hell

Another win for liberal use of the block button: I have *no* idea what discourse we’re referring to.

The U.S. is a country that is unable to handle death but is awash in it. A country with people who often can't process grief. These are terrible things.

Ohh yeah I was seeing some other bugs on Bsky earlier so maybe that’s it!

Stanford Medicine: Patients Find Peace and Answers at Stanford’s Long Covid Clinic

Open question:

One of the most tangibly lifesaving efforts of @standupforscience.bsky.social to date was to send an on-the-ground investigator to Guinea Bissau to understand the context of the unethical &CDC funded Hep B infant vaccines study.

We presented to a packed room of horrified House and Senate folks.

I think this is such a good idea. Question, what outcome measures would you want to see such a trial use?

Good idea.
