Trump has never even acknowledged the shooting at CDC - where an anti-vax gunman sprayed hundreds of bullets - where a police officer died.
He also left behind a wife and child.
RFK Jr returned to publicly spreading antivax lies within days.

Like school shootings. Or the unmitigated pandemic that’s a mass disabling eugenicist project. Or genocide in Palestine. Or climate change and the collapse of AMOC. Or trans rights. Or medical racism. Or…
I'm already sick of this week.

Bad news: you’re not immune to propaganda, bias, or perpetuating harmful -isms.
Good news: Once you accept this, you can reject harm & join liberation movements!
It’s not too late to put on an n95. To oppose genocide. To divest from fascist corps. To demand climate action. To protect trans people.
What a legend

They disable us with covid, poverty, police violence, climate destruction, war, transphobia.
They count on ableism to make us deny this reality and to abandon each other.
Resist. Wear an n95. Use alt text. Make protests accessible.
hey, do you know what the Boy King’s Big Love-Me Birthday Parade is costing? 45 million dollars — $16 million of which is just to repair the damage to DC’s streets that will be caused by hundreds of tanks rolling across them. The Army is preparing for the potential harm to Washington streets with several measures it hopes will avert damage. These include using 1-inch-thick steel plates, some as long as 20 feet, at places along the parade route where the tanks must turn and where those turns could cause the most damage to the streets. this is all so fucking unnecessary. tens of million of dollars, pissed right down the drain, just so a broken-inside bottomless pit of need can pretend he’s not the worthless piece of shit failure that his father never stopped telling him he was. you can only have two government-approved dolls and five pencils, but Donny gets to have a skillionty tanks and spend all the money he wants on a vanity parade. and by the way, forty-five mil is chicken feed compared to what Donny’s wasting on his little adventure in Los Angeles. “the current estimated cost is $134 million dollars.” wrap your mind around that. one hundred and thirty-four million dollars, just so the National Guard can “protect” a few square blocks of downtown Los Angeles from its own residents. what a waste. think about that, the next time some Republican fuckwad tells you that we can’t afford to give seniors healthcare, or provide hot lunches to schoolchildren.

Picture shows two n95 respirators. The top one is new and white, the bottom one (worn last night for a few hours) is dark grey.
If anyone is curious about the air quality in London, Ontario rn or the fact that n95s keep shizz out of your lungs…

There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd.
It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.
Still blows my mind (& enrages me) that you’re just expected to singlehandedly provide your own infection control when seeking healthcare—while there’s still a dangerous airborne virus on the loose & everyone plays make believe. If that doesn’t say “eugenics,” I don’t know what does.

Endemic is not a victory.
So when #Measles becomes predictably endemic (because, as with #COVID, we aren't doing anything to stop it), remember that malaria is endemic to Africa & it kills nearly half a million people every year.
5 years since the start of the pandemic and it is frustrating that we still need to keep repeating: vaccines, masks, tests, and cleaning the air all play roles in reducing transmission.
Wrongly claiming that any of these layers isn’t important is an anti-science stance.
COVID vax have been found to reduce stillbirths, preeclampsia, & other negative health outcomes. This RFK “guidance” will cause death & disability.
Fascists are weaponizing your body. Illness is a bullet. Your maskless face is a gun.
Refuse to comply. Wear an n95.
Give/get mask mutual aid:
Books and mags have been ordered, they will arrive to me at the start of June. I will be mailing out orders through June and ending the sale of all publications, decals and coloring books the 3rd week of June due to my move. If you want to get a book and or mag make sure to order before then.
