Northwestern University studied 48 people with neurological Long COVID. Three blood proteins, C5a, TGFβ1, and Gliomedin, identified brain fog with 94% sensitivity and 86% specificity. This points to a potential diagnostic test. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

fell asleep on my bf while we were watching tv; now that we've moved to the bed i cant sleep to save my life :C y god

i caved and downloaded tiktok 😬 www.tiktok.com/@hack3rwitch

this but with Celcius cans on my nightstand

meanwhile, the next row of chairs over, 5 teenagers have their phones lined up on the push bar of an emergency exit door, filming a tiktok together... i feel old 😆

on a layover, crocheting a sock, while the lady across from me crochets a blanket and the one next to me is working on a crossstitch; we have all three of us been laughing with each other abt how we are always getting distracted by new projects and have a million half-finished ones laying around

as per uzh the day before any amount of time away from home, i find myself looking at all my pets like 🥺🥺🥺🥺

i know Caspian is a failed attempt at breeding a pure BEL, because he was steeply discounted and already 2yrs old when I bought him, but I think his butter-yellow coloring and markings are GORGEOUS and i wouldn't trade him for any other morph for real 🤍💛🤍 #SnakeSaturday #YearoftheSnake2025

ok i have 12, maybe 13hrs to pack for my trip, clean my place, and get over to my bf's place. can i do it?? mmmmmmmaybe lol

i put on that new show The Snake on Hulu and lord it is so stupid, but like all the transitional scenes are footage of little snek bbs wiggling around and i think it's supposed to be, like, creepy? or something? but they are actually so cuuuuuute it's the only thing keeping me watching lol

oh my god i slept like fucking shittttttt last night, amazing, cant wait to tackle every task i havent gotten to this week whilst sleep-deprived 🫠

okey i think i have officially caught up with all the convos i let go while i was depressed; it was so good talking to everyone again 🥲

i have a week of vacation starting tomorrow night and my brain has already FUCKING CHECKED THE FUCK OUT which is unfortunate bc i have so, SO much to get done before then 🥲

i have ORDERED a FRANGIPANI plant, this is not a drill people!!!!!!!!!! 😍😍😍🥳🥳🥳💃💃💃 i have wanted one for yeeeeeeeeears since walking through a grove of them in Ghana; the smell was absolute heaven

not bc 'o no how will i pay the rent' (not anymore at least!) but moreso bc 'wait what day is it shit' #adhdthings

good news tho i paid my rent on time for once 💁‍♀️

how am i supposed to lead THREE customer calls today when i'm so fucking tired???

I am always either INTP or INFP depending on the day, but the whole Assertive/Turbulent thing is new since last time I officially took a test 🤔 www.16personalities.com/free-persona...

i have the urge.... to shop.... but i cant bc i have to pay my rent ☹️👎

i am at home with just the dog or alone with my bf SO much like gods forbid i ever need an alibi for anything fr bc i simply would not have one

hi i'm back from my depressive episode

dont get me wrong i love to read, but i really love when news outlets and other sites have the option to listen to an article instead, bc i can lay down and close my eyes, and i really REALLY love when they actually hire a voice actor to read it aloud instead of using an automated voice

my sister and i are doing another craft fair today and i have to lug three boxes of crochet stuff to our booth within the next hour but i'm just so fucking tireddddddd 😩

i'm one of the cis people boycotting Amazon, but I'm gonna try to shop this post for summer reading!! #booksky

i freakin love seeing the "please come back" emails from Spotify like i think tf not u trick ass bitch hehehe

trying to do a sleep meditation but the cat is using my neck and jaw as a pillow rn and snoring directly into my ear 😂

finally done with work, time for my favorite activity of the day, Laying Here Like A Fucking Slug 😎

oo also, the purse has been successfully uncrocheted (except for one piece where i wove the ends in SO well i literally cannot find them to start frogging) so there is plenty of yarn now to finish up my beautiful trans flag unicorn ☺️

both my snekkies ate this morning, even Caspian who has been on a mysterious hunger strike for the past month or so, i feel rested even tho i didn't really get enough sleep, and i am starting to see a smol semblance of a waist again after quitting the Abilify so today is off to a good start 💖

watching this "Mayor of Mayhem" doc on netflix and a thought has occurred to me: maybe people like voting for idiots because people.... are idiots......

currently un-crocheting a purse so i can re-crochet the yarn into a unicorn lol

ALSO i finally ran the dishwasher AND emptied it after approximately two months of pulling dishes out one at a time to wash them by hand, eat off of them, and put them back in the dishwasher 🙃

honestly, huge shoutout to me for surviving a second full workday in a row feeling like ABSOLUTE trash in a bag. mad props. A+. gold star ⭐

shit i should have waited til lunch was cooked to take my adhd meds... i hope i'm still hungry by the time it's ready 😬

omfg i was just hoping for a nice quiet Friday after waking up groggy from yesterday's covid jab, and instead i have had TWO high priority cases reassigned to me in the past hour 😑😑😑 and i'm gonna have to make a Jira for one of them 😑😑😑😑😑

omg omg Unicorn #2 has been claimedddd 🥳🥳 i need to get to work finishing up #3!!

IT'S JUNETEENTH! There is still so much fucking work to do in this country to clean up the blood it was built on and so many reparations owed. One of the small ways we can help is actively seeking out, hiring, supporting and buying from Black artists. bsky.app/starter-pack...

damn i havent been to a Target in a minuteeee but the CVS where i'm getting my covid vax is here, so here i am

ermmm i just realized looking at the log i've been keeping that my blood pressure routinely RISES when i'm standing which is apparently the opposite?? of what it's supposed to do??? sooo ya that's fun and exciting 🙃 #longcovid

go.bsky.app/GTEFTNa JUNETEENTH IS ON THE HORIZON!! YOU NEED TO UPLIFT AND SUPPORT BLACK SEXWORKERS AND CREATORS FOR ALL WEVE DONE FOR YOU CIRCULATE AND SEND SOME BLACK PEOPLE SOME MONEY STOP MAKING IT OUR JOB TO EDUCATE YOU ON YOUR RACISM AND UNPACK SOME ANTIBLACKNESS WHILE YOURE AT IT!!

it has never sat right with me that Juneteenth is one of those holidays where office workers (majority white) get the day off with pay, and service workers (majority not-white) usually have to work anyway. it's backwards and it's not alright.

Wishing our Black brothers & sisters a powerful Juneteenth. Made a federal holiday in 2021 thanks to tireless activism & leaders like Opal Lee, today honors Black freedom, survival & excellence. A reminder: liberation takes struggle—and justice delayed is never justice denied. We fight on✊🏾✊✊🏻

Evergreen. Juneteenth was slavers getting caught trying to hold on just a little bit longer.

For all who are vulnerable and for those who still care: apnews.com/article/covi...

i know i'm feeling better long-covid-wise bc i'm answering messages that have been sitting unread since the end of May.... the clouds are lifting 🌥️
