Been having a hella-hard time trying to find this strip. Like, for 2 yrs Dunno if the difficulty has been a brain fog thing, or a FUBAR-google thing. Or due to the artist (Kornelia Paulsen) deleting her insta (prbly all of the above) Anyone know if Kornelia is doing okay? #ME/CFS #MECFS #LongCovid

Yesterday’s ep of Dark Matter (S2E5 “Love and Be Loved”) broke me Just hits different, surviving (barely, at this point) 5 or 6 years of severe stage ME/CFS; Jason 24’s field note, “I’ve lost everything… Please just let me find a world where I can love and be loved.”

Threads will mess you up. For life

I haven't seen all of Threads in one sitting, I don't have that constitution, but Jesus Christ, it's a dark movie.

Just a general PSA for the ME & Long Covid community The account calling itself "ME/CFS research” @cfsresearch is little more than a troll; just another Dunning-Kruger armchair contrarian masquerading as a subject matter expert

Alan Levinovitz: My “Not a crank-contrarian halfwit-hack pretending to be a medical journalist for the purposes of carrying water for quacks and grifters” T-shirt has people asking a lot of questions already answered by my shirt

Now that Colbert is gone, I no longer have any reason to pull up YouTube on the regular But here I am, going down this absolutely bonkers Bricks & Minifigs rabbit hole over there Tracks that the Keystone Cops of American Fork inexplicably emerge as the main character in this clusterfck of crooks

"There's an effective treatment but the Powers That Be are keeping it from you" is the age-old argument of cranks and grifters. Embarrassing for Wired to run this.

Six years since the height of the pandemic, the scientific community remains baffled by long Covid. But there might finally be a way forward for long Covid treatment—if only you were allowed to talk about it.

Horseshit BrAiN rEtRaiNiNg doesn't affect autonomic/autoimmune physiological diseases (which is what ME/CFS aka LC is) Imagine publishing something so egregiously anti-science, that you end up "reporting" pop-psych quackery as the cure for bladder cancer; iF oNlY yOu WeRe AlLoWeD tO TaLk AbOuT iT

We are at an airport restaurant. A robot just drove up to us with our food, said, "Hi! Here I am!" and then drove away with our food.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

Watching the procedural 1 hr “debate” via CSPAN Taking place in the dead of the night. The ratfucking hour It took more than I had in the tank yesterday, in terms of ME/CFS limitations, to call my Rep and urge them to oppose Medicaid cuts/ratfuckery, and to vote against all of this

Reminds me of a certain time in Jewish history.

Homan: Don’t knowingly harbor and conceal an illegal alien from ice. Because that is a felony. We have one hell of an Attorney General coming in… we're going to have consequences of people who violate the law and try to prevent us from doing our job.

Just kinda hits different when you’re a registered card-carrying Republican (it’s a Utah thing, don’t ask)

Everyone stop calling LLMs and generative theft algorithms “A.I.” challenge It’s not artificial intelligence. Never will be. It’s just the same enshitification of everything before, with useless gimmicks Crypto, blockchain, NFTS; embarrassing AF. This hype sham cycle is impossibly cringier

I go to Park City for like two weeks, and within 36 hours I see my first Banksy AND Cybertruck Both worse than I imagined, and the bar on those expectations was not high. I hate it here
