It's canon

i don't care what your politics are: if your assessment of the covid pandemic doesn't include long covid, you haven't assessed the covid pandemic.

No! No!!

Throughout the protocol, there are nudge-nudge, wink-wink phrases that... make an impression. People with PEM know exercise doesn't cure Long COVID or ME, and talk to each other about it. The researchers want to ensure that patients don't understand they're in an exercise trial for that very reason.

At today's talk, I touched on deception in activity management. Some-- often new to the field / to PEM-- will deceptively call their graded exercise program pacing. Then, I stumbled across this from @sunsopeningband.bsky.social and it's actually worse. 🧪 🧵 bmjopen.bmj.com/content/15/1...

Everyone is more or less okay with it” dude you make people emigrate to work there because you don’t do remote work, they risk having to change countries if they disagree with it

Really hate that this has to be said, but anyone who is celebrating ICE attacking Dearborn, Michigan today is incapable of ever being your ally. They don't hate fascism. They only hate not being in charge.

One way I have found to mourn someone is to set up a monthly sustaining donation to a mutual aid effort they cared about. If you can join me in honoring Alice Wong, @sfdirewolf.bsky.social with a sustaining donation today, please do. Thank you Alice, and I will not let the bastards grind me down.

A real loss. Rest in power, Alice Wong.

Meanwhile, “did women ruin the workplace?”

every few years it's revealed that the NYT was sitting on information about some horrific thing that public knowledge of would have changed the country's course and for some reason a ton of people still give them money. you can play those games on other sites

What happens to disabled people WILL ALWAYS happen to you.

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

What is the argument for voting for Democrats for harm reduction if the harm is not fucking reduced

is that.......the osama bin laden from the bunker illustration

"ELEVATED HORROR" DIRECTOR SEEING ANY WOMAN OVER THE AGE OF 45: ahh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AIEEEE!!!! AAAuuUGHHHH!H! OUGHGHGHGGHHGHGHGGHHG

this entirely misses the point. MAHA grifters are rarely the people who get sick and die from their lies and wellness scams. it’s vulnerable people who suffer the most — especially children

The main achievement of the tech industry has been increasing the flow of money from people who make or do things to people who already have more money than they could spend in a hundred lifetimes

PSA: If you go to a protest tomorrow and don't mask, we're not friends 👼

Hi everyone, it's Cathy from Deloitte. We've been monitoring your online comments and it seems that many of you have not read our PowerPoint deck. Slide 185 clearly states that you must pay a fine if you've said anything critical about the WNBA. Fine yourself here: chuffed.org/project/baha...

This is the culmination of a longstanding demonization campaign against a Jewish professor—advanced almost a year ago by AIPAC Congressman Ritchie Torres, who shared a graphic produced by his friends at the fascist Canary Mission harassment group:

Multitask! Help families in Gaza while annoying Cathy with our new shirts/stickers/totes. Two designs to choose from: - Everyone wants better refs - Everyone hates WNBA refs everyone-for-gaza.printify.me

there's a professor at a university on the west coast who spends some of his time figuring out how AI can help cops use nicer words when they pull people over. i think about it occasionally.

Just gonna leave these here...

1st time I got doxed (before GG, when some nerds mad because I thought interactive fiction deserved to be on Steam and I got the 1st one approved to be on the platform) they got my info from a signup to house people displaced by the Boston marathon bombing. The concern around protest signup is legit

What we're seeing in the "don't sign up for protests" discourse is what Paulo Freire described as the convert's failure to trust the knowledge of the oppressed. As the convert tries to stand in solidarity with the oppressed, they refuse to let go of a world where they were the authority by default.

My friend Bahaa and his family have safely escaped Gaza City! It became necessary to leave after they narrowly escaped being shelled by the IOF. This video was taken near Nabulsi Junction; they're now living in tents further south. They left a lot behind, so if you want to help: gofund.me/43b7dde06

What's the wrong way?

I see it's Trusted Media Personality "the biggest problem we have with covid is that nobody knows death rates are down" day again. Meanwhile all over socials I see people saying "how is it even possible that I got covid in 2025?" My guy, maybe there's a better hill to not-die on.

This is not the AI boom creating a new type of work, this is a classic example of managers using automation to deskill old ones. Creative workers who once made a higher wage creating original art and writing are now paid in piecework to edit automated output. Bosses are using AI to cut labor costs.

Bahaa sent me a chilling photo of graffiti the IOF left behind in Tel al-Hawa. As Israel continues its campaign to empty Gaza City, it's not just the danger and stress making it hard to survive - it's also very expensive to flee, as he outlines in his text. To help: www.gofundme.com/f/Anwar-Family

@moderation.bsky.app has labeled our story as “graphic” & censored an interview with a physician about Gaza. If it’s too graphic for Bluesky to see, you can only imagine what it’s like for the children Dr Syed treats to live through. You can access front-lines movement journalism at prismreports.org

My friend Bahaa in north Gaza sent me a video of his old house that was destroyed by Israel. Can you imagine if this was your neighborhood? Please help by donating or sharing his fundraiser: www.gofundme.com/f/Anwar-Family

I was hoping that my friend Bahaa could get a Bluesky account to share what's happening in north Gaza. Unfortunately, Bluesky is still discriminating against Palestinians. Without changes, this cannot be our long-term Twitter alternative. Anyway, here's his Gofundme: www.gofundme.com/f/Anwar-Family

Lol, we need the "AI" that is killing the environment and guzzling untold amounts of resources to save the environment. This is 1984 type of marketing, like "ministry of peace" that is actually the war department.

Sadly, this line of thinking has always worked (see COVID): there are far too many people who are comfortable with the sick/disabled suffering and dying, because they think the sick and disabled SHOULD suffer and die; it is our fate. They only care when able-bodied people suffer and die.

This Free Press shit is not new logic... "Even though you'll find the vulnerable will fall by the wayside - they'll get infected, they'll get hospitalized, and some will die - it's not going to be the tsunami of cases that we've seen." (Aug 2023) www.bbc.com/news/av/worl...

Time once again for perhaps the greatest tweet of all time.
