I agree, except for the huge part of being maskless at a bar.

The saddest thing is watching once good people, slide into conspiracy rabbit holes and when they reappear
they’re hate-filled, rage fuelled, brainwashed shells who can’t think critically💔
And vehemently believe they know “the secret truth”

I really appreciate that. Thank you.
I should have taken ALL of your other threads into account before even questioning.
Sorry for the misunderstanding. We’re all on high alert these days. So much stress.
Take care!

I fully agree with you and I apologize that my questions offended you. I did NOT mean too. I was just asking for clarification as it could read a bit confusing.
I have held you in VERY high regard all these years.
Im quite frankly 💔 to be blocked on X.
Sorry again. I misunderstood it.

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you.

The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.

It’s not okay to carelessly spread SARS-CoV-2/COVID—no matter what NPR, the New York Times, or the Atlantic tell you.

Resist forced infection. Refuse to be a link in the chain of transmission. Remind yourself to be a caring, responsible member of your community—especially now.

This guy is in one of the worst prisons in the world with no way out and may spend the rest of his life there because, it appears, he has an autism awareness tattoo in honor of his little brother.

GOP bill could ban hairdressers from giving gender-nonconforming haircuts to minors - LGBTQ Nation The bill would allow anyone to sue someone who affirms a young person's transition, and it specifically mentions hairstyles.

We reported on this a few days ago, but I want to point out this headline because this is where we are at.

A bill in Arkansas would ban gender affirming HAIRCUTS for transgender youth.

HAIRCUTS.

This is a straight up North Korea state sanctioned hairstyle proposed law for youth.

Such a beauty ❤️🐶

Teared up, watching my dog - sit, sniff the air & enjoy life.
His back had been sore this week so he was happy to sit outside. Listening to the birds.

Remember to breathe and find ANY moments of calm & joy.

Uhhhh 😒Grant on Temptation Island is diabolical and IMO, dangerous. He could destroy a partner.

Need a crash course on how to avoid being gaslit, manipulated & DARVO’d by a grandiose narcissist?

Watch TI! On Netflix.

Make the invisible visible. Long Covid is REAL and a growing crisis

“With zero approved treatments for the condition, little public knowledge, almost no effort to prevent new COVID infections, & the Trump administration now moving rapidly to shut down medical research, the situation remains dire.”

Denying the Seriousness of Long COVID Is Dangerous for Me – and You What is Long COVID? Are there treatments? A guide to the illness that affects millions, but is hardly talked about.

It’s Long COVID Awareness Day, and I want to thank @zeteo.com for inviting me to write about it!

Politicians & media can’t keep pushing endless COVID reinfections as an acceptable condition of our “new normal”- while failing to communicate the risks.

“Imagine that this disease comes from a common virus – one so common you might catch it at the supermarket, at school, or on the bus. Imagine that recent studies have shown that this virus – the one that’s everywhere you go – can linger in your body for more than a year after infection.“

🥺🥹 Shows great parenting. ❤️
I hope your lil babe feels better ASAP.

Huge march in New York today protesting the illegal DOGE cuts

The media forgets (or hope people forget) too fast. This was how the NPR covered our research not long ago.

Today is International #LongCovid Awareness Day, by the way.
Let's not forget to fight for the millions worldwide who never recovered after a #COVID infection.

How denial of airborne COVID transmission broke the world - Healthy Debate Five years later, the greatest basic science failure in generations caused the pandemic harms highlighted by people across the political spectrum, and broke our social cohesion.

Five years on and we’re still going round and round with whether Covid is airborne. There’s no scientific doubt. Denial broke us.

Why did we fail to prepare for the pandemic? If we do not re-examine what we did before the start of the COVID-19 pandemic and learn lessons, then how can we expect to be better prepared for the next one.

Good question, @kityates.bsky.social 🧪
