don’t be shy. repost this too! yall should be spreading information. hold your friends accountable. educate your family. be loud and upset. our passive quality as a society is literally making the worse people in the world more powerful and richer. wake the fuck up

In a world where sadly your dollar is an endorsement, i really will be side eyeing everyone who posts their Spotify wrapped this year. Your dollar is being used to pay for AI warfare actively killing people. Your dollar makes them feel comfortable with running ICE ads. Cancel that shit already.

A friend with a new baby asked guests to mask in order to hold her baby. A relative refused to mask & broke down in tears about her "restrictions"

As a reminder, babies <6 months have the 2nd highest hospitalization rate from Covid after adults 75+ & are too young to be vaxxed

I have been informed
that today
is a day for giving
and in that spirit
if you would like
to do something
to show you give a damn:
you can wear a mask,
and if you
really do give a damn
you can keep wearing it
even on the days
that are not
specifically for giving.

I am thankful.
Truly, I am thankful,
to have survived
the pandemic
long enough
to reach this day.
And though
I am thankful,
(truly, I am thankful)
I understand
that having survived
the pandemic
long enough
to reach this day
does not yet mean
that I have survived
the pandemic.

David Tennant’s sexy vicar in Inside Man did it for me.

Listen: be realistic!
You should not expect
people to cancel gatherings.
You should not expect
people to gather cautiously.
You must be realistic,
what you should expect
is in a week’s time
to hear many people saying
for some reason
they are now feeling unwell.

one of the coolest things about ChatGPT is how you can actually just never use it. you can fill your whole entire life with simply not once using it. it's incredible.

People need to understand how deeply eugenicist this is.

They’re insinuating that if you “take care of yourself” you will be healthy and should get affordable healthcare.

Disabled people can’t “healthy living” their way out of being disabled.

It’s not a moral failing.

We need healthcare too

If you
wake up tomorrow
and need to travel
I hope that you
will take care
and travel safely.

And if you
wake up tomorrow
and feel unwell
I hope that you
will take care
and not travel at all.

I really wish we'd stop calling them climate "skeptics" or "vaccine skeptics", if you jump off a cliff we don't call you a "gravity skeptic"

Dear @divyampersaud.com @marawilson.bsky.social Hammam has asked if you could share his above post if you have time. Thank you so much.

Shimaa was shot by an Israeli quadcopter trying to keep her baby safe & lost her husband to Israel's genocide in Gaza. Please help her keep her daughter, who's very sick & malnourished, alive. They desperately need food & shelter as the camps are flooding in winter rain:

Please help Sally's family survive Israel's continuing genocide in Gaza by sharing & donating as Palestinians are left starving & homeless in winter rains. No donations for a day:

Mohammed has a super detailed chuffed that is a very good read if you’re interested at all about life in Gaza- he also has done a thread in the post I’m quoting ⬇️ about his family history that is very interesting

Help Ahmad if you can

A friend told me he knows
he should wear a mask,
but he keeps asking me
“don’t you find wearing it
to be kind of depressing?”
and though I wanted to say
that what I find depressing
are seeing those who know
they should mask
refusing to do so,
but instead I just said:
no, I don’t.

Remember:
when they ask
“People who rarely get sick,
what’s your secret?”
they do not want to hear
about the kind of mask you wear,
the activities you refrain from,
or the precautions you take,
they want to know your secret
because they can’t imagine
doing what they know you do.

r/covidlonghaulers • 1d ago flyingwithdoves I think I might have long covid Symptoms I've had Covid 4 times now. My infection in 2023 led to insomnia and increased anxiety, but I could still manage and work with Ambien for sleep and Ativan occasionally. This August I got another infection and all hell broke loose - internal vibrations, debilitating anxiety, constant flip-flopping feeling in my stomach, new phobias like driving, and I can't think anymore. I have such severe brain fog that it's scaring me. It feels like I've had a lobotomy. All my muscles are sore, including the ones in my head. It feels like a tight band squezing my brain all the time. I have constant sinus congestion and dizziness and high blood pressure now. It's hard to relax, ever. I've been out of work for 3 months. I have new paradoxical reactions or debilitating side effects with virtually every supplement and medication I've tried recently. Anihistamines make me hyperactive. Seroquel and trazadone do the same thing. Vitamin D gives me heart palpitations now. Magnesium makes me hyperactive too. SSRIs give me every side effect even at tiny doses. I can take small amounts of Ativan occasionally, but enough to actually calm my nervous system will give me a paradoxical reaction. It's exhausting and depressing. It feels like this virus has ripped apart my nervous system and I'm floundering. I've been searching this group for answers to all my symptoms, but it seems as if there are none. I guess "covidlonghaulers" is my new home while I hope for a miracle cure.

This person was infected with COVID twice and recovered. A 3rd infection brought manageable long COVID symptoms, but they were still able to work. After a 4th infection a few months ago, they haven’t recovered at all — showing how repeated infections can cause severe, lasting damage.

Whenever I read studies
with findings such as:
“Alzheimer Disease Patients
Who Survived COVID-19
Have Rapid Disease Progression
and a Higher Risk of Death
at 5-year Follow-up,”
I am reminded
that none of us have truly
“Survived COVID-19,”
we are still just trying to survive it.

This is a pretty frivolous question
but are there any fellow #COVID-cautious #evermaskers who’ve risked getting tattoos in the past few years? A new tatt would really boost my morale. Naturally I’d wear an N95 (and ask the tattooist to do likewise) bring my air filters and pick a quiet time of day.
