I’ve gotten a lot of flack for saying that this is my favorite Phil Collins song, but I stand by it.

That’s a goddamned masterpiece.

Another longhauler sent me a care package in December and it’s genuinely one of the kindest, most thoughtful letters I’ve ever received. I’m still so grateful to him for thinking of me.

What we’ve done to children throughout the COVID pandemic is unforgiveable.

Constantly downplaying, minimizing and refusing to acknowledge the risks the virus poses.

We could have had clean air in schools. We could have educated kids about respirators

How many have debilitating Long Covid now?

You can't resist oppression without use of your body. You can't resist oppression without use of your brain. Long covid steals both, and you are always one infection away from becoming a long hauler. If you value your freedom and ability to fight back, you have to mask up.

I’m so sorry. That’s horrifying and ought to be unconstitutional.

I don’t know how they made a movie about one of the most fascinating elements of Starfleet with one of the most compelling actors of our time and made it boring, of all things. I’m so disappointed.

Exeter firm excited over long Covid test breakthrough The firm says for some people it can confirm the existence of long Covid and help treatment.

Are Women More Prone To Long Covid Than Men? Anuradha Varanasi Contributor Anuradha writes about environmental health disparities & epidemiology Follow 0 Jan 22, 2025, 01:00pm EST

"Women are at a higher risk of developing long Covid than men. However, men are more likely to suffer from severe Covid-19 infections and have higher mortality rates, according to a new JAMA study.

Don’t underestimate the impact you’re making when you choose to wear a mask.

You’re protecting your health & the health of your community. You’re helping ease the burden on our healthcare system.

You’re standing in solidarity with disabled people & telling the government that no one is expendable

Still masking, still a baddie.

We are still in a pandemic, Chris.

Anybody sharing their thoughts today who doesn't mask or center disability justice + marginalized voices isn't serious about any future where anyone might exist who isn't privileged enough to have their health, so don't listen to them.
Find a mask bloc near you + mutual aid groups, get involved.

You’re all about to be gaslit about that Nazi salute and I’m begging you to spend no time on it. You know what you saw.

Ukraine has already achieved the unimaginable by holding off Russia for almost 3 years. Continue supporting Ukraine!

Spoken like a true guy who hasn’t gotten a single like on a single post. Cry harder.

I will never respect anyone who voted for him the first time, either.

Badass!

I have some colorful and patterned N95s, but I always keep black in my handbag because I wear so much black, it always looks cohesive. I love mask chains too! I’ve made a couple.

Thank you so much! These are all some of my all-time favorite items of clothing.

Many of us in the covid-conscious community are asking ourselves what—short of many more deaths—will make people mask up again. I think one piece of the puzzle is fashion. People see masks as clinical and medical, not chic. I’m not less stylish for masking. My mask is part of my style.
