I’m only seeing people with ME or Long Covid sharing this. If you’re not affected, can you please read it & share? Ableist propaganda goes viral all the time, which encourages outlets to publish more of it. Can we please make the truth go viral instead?

Here's today's column on the astonishing, ongoing mistreatment of people with #ME/CFS. Please spread it far and wide: the only thing which can break the media's wall of indifference is seeing an article about the issue go viral. Thank you. 1/2 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

I’m genuinely shocked at the people on here who think long covid isn’t real. Seriously? Your actuaries, departments of health even the freaking department of defense know it’s real. Apparently people used to think MS wasn’t real. There’s a long history of telling sick people they’re crazy.

Next week I'm going on a week long cancer retreat. I'll be doing it my own way, which is doing everything I can not to get sick from other people there. I wont be sharing meals, for one. I have surgery the week after, so it's extremely important. But so far I'm proud of myself for even trying.

My uncle broke ranks with my Methodist family & told me the Glyderau mountains of Dyffryn Ogwen are home to Gods, & Angels live in the rivers & trees on the valley floor As a child I listened in awe to his stories of a life with Nature, & still have no reason to not believe him

I had to replace my phone, I feel like everything i own including my body is breaking! But I tried out the camera on this Osprey today. I don't see them all the time but when i do, its often this tree. Look at those talons! I rarely see them without a fish!
