your wife has been accusing a “grown ass adult” of DARVO and being an abuser because Abi simply BLOCKED HER.

feel like i got hit by a bus so im trying to follow people back but im sooooo tired

it’s pretty horrifying to watch what is happening to public health. i don’t know about everyone else working in healthcare, but i’m seeing the ramifications of it every day

Contrary to the contemptuous replies to this post, low vax uptake is the inevitable outcome of a multi-year campaign to minimize sickness, disability and death and force people back into work and school with no mitigations. Why would you protect yourself from something that isn't dangerous?

I can't fully articulate how worried I am for trans people of all ages. It feels like the world doesn't care.

Among the saddest things about this is that last time it happened—and it did happen, almost immediately—Trump deported a bunch of adoptees whose parents thought adoption gave them citizenship. It didn’t.

For the past 4 years almost every major “disinformation” reporter has ignored the rise of COVID denialists like Jay and others, instead choosing to boost their denialist rhetoric that the pandemic ended (it has not, according to the World Health Organization), and that COVID is harmless (it is not)

this is still very near and dear to me. i love what i did on twitter- maybe it didn’t do a ton, but i am proud of it. even if i do get mean sometimes.

the restaurant i worked at for a while had a chai concentrate that was SO good and i don’t remember what brand it was. it was in a big jug with a purple label. anyone have any idea? 😭

We get it. Being sick all the time IS uncomfortable. Recognizing that you’re never going to get better is incredibly scary. It doesn’t make it any less true. Learning to accept that you’ve lost your health and your life is forever changed is a difficult thing to do. Your doubt makes it harder /4

Everyone believes they’ll be the exception (this literally can’t be true). They think chronic illness & disability won’t ever happen to them - or IF it does - they will succeed in getting help where others have “failed.” These beliefs are at the core of why the blame us when we don’t get better 🧵

It's disturbing seeing some medical and public health professionals trying to normalize RFK by saying "we have to meet him halfway." NOPE. RFK is a charlatan who has deliberately spread disinformation that has killed people. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.

Also, folks need to learn about Aktion T4 and what happened to the patients whose medical teams tried to cooperate with the Nazi government while protecting those patients. To meet them "halfway". Those patients were murdered.

1/3 Ontario covid/flu/RSV update: If you haven't already, this is a good time to get your covid and flu shots. Covid activity has generally been rising but shows some recent signs of slowing based on lab testing and hospital levels. The XEC lineage has taken over from KP.3.1.1 here. However,

my hair keeps fallin outttt

This is praxis 🙏

i used to be sooo sweet and i kinda became a little bit of a cunt

it’s $55, who wants to be a trans masc’s ally today? untag.com/products/lac...

idk if ive said it here yet but I LOVE WOMEN

Putting out a digital bat signal for black, brown, women, & queer folks who take covid seriously to follow/be in community with on here now that twitter is dead. I’m not sure how I’ll manage another trump presidency or pandemic without y’all

i have to re-find my mutuals and what if no one likes me anymore

Yes, those of us in public health understand "trade offs" and it's factored in when formulating guidance. However the term "trade offs" has been hijacked and weaponized during COVID by the rich and privileged to try and make it socially acceptable to let marginalized people suffer.

trying to follow people back

ok hey

the bullshit from public health figures about “accepting” that you’re going to get infected.. that’s bullshit. every infection that is prevented is a win.

wilson and house are boyfriends

hey i suck at posting on here

the upper class WANTS y’all to tell the other poor people that they’re just lazy and bad at grocery shopping so that the poor people are all mad at each other instead of the upper class that’s hoarding wealth. and y’all do it- every time!

imagine if there existed a deadly disease for which doctors recommended you be tested

idk what else to say to other healthcare workers to make them understand that they hold power and that their documentation or lack of documentation, their diagnoses, their dismissals, everything they do when they practice medicine can affect patients for many, many years.

we’ve got sitting members of the house who likely participated in the planning of an armed insurrection so forgive me for not giving many shits about this one

gin is good people and could use some help with raising the remain $730 needed for rent. If you can help, please do.

Something climate activists who are ignoring COVID need to know: Working to reduce the harm of current pandemics, and preparing for future pandemics, is a key component of climate adaptation. Health justice isn't a distraction. The climate crisis IS a public health crisis.

I was told there would at least be fro-yo in The Bad Place

there is someone in my mentions on twitter saying that i’m abusing them (i do not know them), that i “hate women”, that i “kill people”, and that my existence is “torture” to them i can’t believe that website is free

ok so i ordered it and it has saved me some money but now i’m being fatphobic to myself

the other day at work i had a person who primarily does EMGs at their workplace say “over the past few years we’ve had so many people getting diagnosed with ALS, i feel like it’s so many more than before and i don’t know why” and i just went 👁️👄👁️

one day i’m going to start screaming and i won’t stop

today i was the only person in an infusion center with a mask on. super safe considering pretty much every infusion given there is immunosuppressive.

disabled people: we are still dying, can you please just wear a mask to the grocery store and doctor’s offices so we can live conservatives: no, die or stay inside all day, no one cares leftists: no 🏳️‍🌈✨💖

i love that the type of article is “perspective” because it sure is a perspective- a really shitty and privileged one!

“it’s so weird how people respond so negatively to masks!!” no, it’s more than weird, i’m talking about potentially being denied housing.

i know i’m tired because i don’t sleep enough, i have an autoimmune disease, and i’m anemic, but i still hate it
