This whole catastrophe a day news cycle is like the worst advent calendar

Still masking #MaskUp #LoneMasker

There is no lonelier a feeling than the world moving along as usual, as you are nativgating a personal crisis. If you have experienced this in the past, or are currently in the throes of a difficult situation, please know there is at least one person who understands how surreal it feels.

Altman has been quite clear about his strategy. From the 2008 crash he learned that if you bind enough of the economy to your business you can do whatever you like; government will decide the rules no longer apply. What he's selling is unaccountabilty.

someone got indicted on the basis of “transporting antifa materials” for allegedly transporting a box of ZINES THEY’RE PROSECUTING PEOPLE FOR DOMESTIC TERRORISM OVER ZINES

Nice day for a walk with no allergies. #MaskUp

Zohran Mamdani (D) has been elected Mayor of New York City.

Got my botox for migraine today, with my readimask to avoid straps getting in the way or pressing on the injection sites afterwards #MaskUp

NYPD Cop is sick and tired of TEMU cops AKA ICE GOONS racial profiling and harassing him.

I was pleased to learn that KN95 respirators also turned out to be decent face-warmers in the outdoors and indoors. I don't have to SELFLESSLY CARE about immunocompromised neighbors who need others to mask so they can access society, I can just wear my respirator to reduce winter air in my nostrils.

Illinois is essentially ending the power RFK Jr. has over state vaccine policy. They’ve passed a bill through the state legislature to give their state vaccine advisory committee more power, and to require insurance to cover vaccines that the state committee recommends, not ACIP.

This is why we’re seeing cracks. Their bullshit propaganda blaming democrats isn’t working. By large margins.

Happy Halloween 🎃 #😷

UPDATE: A TikTok account dedicated to posting racist videos featuring an AI-generated Black woman named “Lakisha” was part of a trend pushing racist disinformation about SNAP benefits TikTok didn't comment, but the account was removed after our report www.wired.com/story/disinf...

The weather might be dreary but it was warm and welcoming at the Fort Greene Council Senior Center today, where I was joined by @cmcrystalhudson.bsky.social, @jabaribrisport.bsky.social and @phara4assembly.bsky.social.

With SNAP/EBT cuts looming I highly recommend downloading this app! Basically restaurants and other food businesses will have available bags of random food they don’t wanna waste for ppl to buy for hella cheap! This has saved me sooooo many times when I only have $5 and need some food.

Need covid safe Halloween plans? Here is mine:

#MaskUp I'm too tired to write a caption.

Still masking #MaskUp

It’s getting louder. Slowly but surely the big institutions are catching up. C19 damage is making it into the medical mainstream. People have published it for a long time, now it’s turning up in teaching materials, public announcements. It’s getting louder.

In a world where we still have not eliminated the belief that some are born disposable, to seek a technology that might reinforce it is more than reckless; it is cruel. It grows from a mindset that possession is more important than creation and cooperation is a concession only when dominance fails.

And this impetus echoes through every proposition. Replace entertainers and creatives with pliant tools that will accept any input no matter how unethical and create on demand for the cost of upkeep. Shed the sages of yesterday for the answer engines of tomorrow that will accept knowledge and truth

Still masking on this Monday at the office. #MaskUp

Another lovely day for a mask. #MaskUp

I've had a migraine headache with light, sound, and smell sensitivity all morning, made it into the office with meds. The zimiair mask is more comfortable on days I can't tolerate a drager, because the straps are adjustable and stretchier. #MaskUp

Halloween 🎃 office masking with zimiair #MaskUp

Nurse: Are you sick, or do you just like wearing the mask? Me: Well, COVID is still active Nurse: I know! I just got it, it was horrible. And I caught it here!

Office masking #MaskUp

Hundreds of people protesting ICE in downtown manhattan right now. Reads and Broadway. NYPD cops in riot gear on scene.

Still the office masker #MaskUp

Very hard to live with people who go around closing windows and unplugging HEPAs & accusing you of being mentally ill for taking Covid precautions while also putting you at risk every single week

No Kings protesters in NJ & VA get to take all that energy to the polls now in very important elections in their states 2 weeks from now. Make your voices heard in the streets & at the ballot box. Vote against all Trump allies/enablers & send a message to the rest of them for us.

Mask Up! #VirusesAreAirborne

Breaking: Today is officially one of the biggest days of protest in American history. Over 7 million Americans turned out to No Kings events to stand up against MAGA fascism.

7 million people marched today. That's greater than world's three largest militaries— combined.

I have friends everywhere. #NoKings

"No Kings. Yes on 50." A massive group of protesters is forming a human banner at San Francisco's Ocean Beach Saturday morning as part of nationwide No Kings protests against the Trump administration.

Something maybe worth noting is that all the frog costumes and signs and good-natured memeing came about because a wide spectrum of Americans saw someone in direct, brave confrontation with ICE—getting pepperballed and standing their ground—and thought “that’s awesome. That person is a hero”

Federal officers pepper ball protestors at Portland ICE facility just now.

In America’s first public park, where Bostonians came together 400 years ago to protect a common space for the common good, we told the Trump Administration that when it comes to freedom and our families, Boston doesn’t back down. #NoKings

Philadelphia Freedom. 🇺🇸 #NoKings

Los Angeles came out in droves. #NoKings
