So FYI this asshole @craigbrittain.com is weaponizing their huge following to put accounts like mine on "Zionists" and "Fake Palestine Scam" lists. Never heard of this person but I guess I'm evil for *checks notes* mailing out stickers at my own expense for someone else's fundraiser.
Thank You for Masking!

Some bro just added me to a zionist (lmao!!!!) blocklist because he thinks I'm running a Gaza donation scam. If that's not the most Bluesky thing to ever happen...
If you think children or teens only suffered because of online learning, but not because their own health has been devastatingly compromised or because they lost family members to Covid, then I don’t know what to say to you.
For the millionth time… CHILDREN THAT NEEDED SCHOOLS FOR FOOD, SHELTER, SAFETY, ALSO NEEDED TO BE KEPT SAFE FROM DISEASE. It was never one thing or another. We should have worked a lot harder to make schools a lot safer much earlier on.
Pretty sure I leave my apartment less as someone with long covid than most of these people did during the supposed "lockdowns"
if you hated covid "lockdowns" try long covid

I worked in homeless services for years. It didn’t help me find accessible housing when I got Long COVID. - The Sick Times

Hot take: surveillance capitalism is bad AND a good chunk of the anti-fitness tracker discourse is fueled by the same kind of chronic illness denial that keeps pushing "brain retraining." Like no, actually, POTS is not a social contagion and heart rate tracking does not cause symptoms.
Six years since the start of COVID and this type of misinformation by omission is still rampant. The best protection against airborne pathogens is wearing a high quality mask.
as people are talking about climate change and the dangers of extreme heat, it's worth pointing out that no prison in Florida has A/C and some (many?) don't even really have working fans.
I'm not gonna boost the Post but if you're (correctly) calling out someone on their racism and most of the replies to your post are super ableist, maybe there's an additional problem worth addressing

Our friend Bahaa is hoping to get a temporary job in Gaza, but he needs his university graduation certificate to get hired. Unfortunately (like everything) it's expensive - we've made good progress on fundraising but are about $500 short. Any help is appreciated! chuffed.org/project/baha...

What a shock! Who could have predicted! Meanwhile these anti mask sentiments will continue to be turned around on disabled people and anyone who wants to protect themselves and others.
NEW: Videos show ICE agents defying Connecticut’s new mask ban during recent arrests. The agency says it “will not abide by” the ban. "Tell them. I dare you,” an agent said in one video. “Who’s going to arrest me?” My latest at @ctinsider.bsky.social — www.ctinsider.com/news/article... #nutmegsky

Can't say I love it when "covid conscious" people use brain damage as a "why are things bad now" argument. That's eugenics!! Disabled people did not cause whatever issue you're mad about. Capitalism and white supremacy predate 2019 and covid just provided a new opportunity for bad shit. Do better!!

As a former full-time freelancer, one aspect that is aggravating about the Long Covid/Wired feature is how hard it is to get longform features accepted at publications. Like, this likely passed an editor's meeting, not just one person accepting a pitch.
Excited to learn that long covid gives me a "silence fringe medical grifters" superpower. Can anyone help me figure out how to use this? Seems useful
Large study (av age 45) shows people with #LongCovid are 4.48x more likely to have a Major Adverse Cardiovascular Event (stroke, pulmonary embolism, heart failure) & 53% more likely to die. True regardless of age, BMI, vaccination, variant. Risks last 3+ years from infection. 1/
I muted the Podcaster account, please clap
Podcasters talk about actual issues facing people with long covid (hint: poverty!) one time challenge
In addition to #worldmaskweek, another great reason to mask is that I've spent all morning feeling like I was chasing parked cars. That's the Long Covid Promise (tm) and yes, it can happen to you.
It's #worldmaskweek, which is a great time to get back into masking if you've stopped over the last few years. Commit to masking at the "big 3" this week: stores, transit, and medical appointments.

Always funny to see men come on here and shout the mainstream opinion in their best contrarian voice. Instead of the Bluesky bubble or GLP-1s, why not pick something actually controversial: these pro-masking stickers support a family in Gaza linktree.com/thanksformasking
