Please do not bring those weird ****ers over here. We have kids over here. I will call Child Services.
I have almost a dozen tattoos. I have, like, flowers and shit. Things that are personal to me, like a semicolon butterfly. I know what the semicolon stands for and embraced it.
I feel like you have to work to get a Nazi symbol on your fucking chest. That's not a oppsie moment.
You want us all in the same tent but you won't mask up to protect disabled people so no.

A similar signal appears after other viral infections - a reminder that viruses arenโt "mild" when it comes to brain health ๐ง

I discovered this trick accidentally when I started cooking a pot of rice and then freezing the left overs.
Cooking can take a lot out of me, but I enjoy it. So now I make one big meal a week and freeze the leftovers in individual serving bags.
Long COVID can leave people more disabled than 98% of the population โ with struggles rivaling stroke, rheumatoid arthritis, even Parkinsonโs. This is far more than โjust fatigue.โ

Promising safety while demanding that we sacrifice our neighbors is literally what Pritzker is doing in Broadview....
19.10.2025 04:42 โ ๐ 191 ๐ 40 ๐ฌ 12 ๐ 2This is hardly a new observation; Katelyn Burns did a piece on this a few days ago ( www.burnsnotice.com/democrats-mu... ). But every day shit like this happens Pritzker is undermining his own position. You can't be outraged at one flavor of state based terror while greenlighting another.

He has yet to do anything to keep ICE from disappearing our friends, family, and neighbors.
The invasion has already happened and real people are suffering.
Wanna to go to a virtual No Kings rally that focuses on healthcare (with a side of "vaccines are good, actually" and "eugenics is bad, actually")?
Organized by disabled folks who can't go to an in-person event.
Join Saturday at 2:30pm Pacific time, zoom link: us06web.zoom.us/j/8467741742...
Recognizing that long Covid exists would also mean recognizing that there was a bipartisan effort to allow as many people in the population as possible to get sick all so the wealthy could maintain their wealth.
Both parties are complicit in forcing us into an inhuman and eugenicist situation.
The No Kings messaging is honestly making me twitch because this isn't a monarchy in the making. Trump dying, or even another election, is not what defeats this.
"No fascists!" Would better speak to what is actually happening, so people can correctly talk about how to deal with it.
First time I was ever threatened by a cop, I was 13. We were playing manhunt and I was it. Was looking under a car for my friends and the cop thought I was running from her. Threatened to tase me if I didnโt produce and ID.

Long COVID is impacting anywhere between 5 to 10 percent of the population, and it doesn't matter if you get vaccinated. Long COVID will still fuck up your world.
Considering what some parents have to do in order to get services for their kiddos in Illinois schools JB should maybe sit this one out.

A messy hodge podge of wild flower bushes with white, pink, yellow and purple flowers. There is some catnip in the foreground. There are also a few weeds visible. In the far background, a black iron fense covered with vines can be seen. Checking out all of this is a long haired grey and white cat on a leash.
I know my neighbors give me side eye, but I love my messy, chaotic front yard. It's a Chicago front yard, so there is not much space. But I can sit on my porch and watch butterflies and listen to crickets. And this only requires the amount of upkeep my body is capable of. Also, my cats approve.
