if I had a ton of money for #LongCovid research I’d spend at least some of it on post covid visual snow syndrome. 15% of ppl with vss believe they got it from covid (and around half from a tbi). it’s super under researched.
Also, holy shit, Bluesky sends real traffic. Will update this tomorrow with firm numbers but journalism is going to move here for sure. Twitter is a drop in the bucket. It's over, but we are so back, and so on and so forth
My autistic masks were a prison created by my abusers over my entire life. They were the 'me' I would think of, they were a filter every impulse went through. They told me what I could and couldnt think about. But they were not me.

The United Nations (@UN) reminds us that today is ⬇️♿⬇️ #InternationalDayOfPersonswithDisabilities #UnitedNations
The biggest barrier of those in the disability community is that which denies them the same quality of life the able-bodieds enjoy. For some reason there is an undercurrent of insistence those whose lives are lived differently should be expected to accept a lower standard of living.
Today is International Day of Persons with Disabilities “27% of Canadians aged 15 years or older, or 8 million people, have one or more disabilities, and that 72% of people with disabilities experience barriers to accessibility in their day to day lives.” 💛 #Disability

The answer is #Mounjaro will cost me $225/month now that the #Medicare donut hole has been eliminated. I paid $11/month in 2024!!! How can I afford my #diabetes medication? That’s simple: I can’t! And #LillyCares doesn’t offer a #PAP for Mounjaro. #WTF #Lilly ???
My #diabetes medication is #Mounjaro. It also helps my #raredisease called #mecfs. I paid $11 a month for the drug in 2024 until I went into the #Medicare donut hole and my copay increased to $227. Since the donut hole is eliminated in 2025, what do you think the drug will cost me each month?
