Haha I was just about to say this. STEP 1: Make a Gantt chart for Thanksgiving prep STEP 2: Finish Thanksgiving prep in February, full of self-loathing, just like every other Gantt chart project

My last Brother laser multi-function printer lasted me 15 years. So naturally I bought the same Brother printer again, just 15 years newer.

Want to honor Alice Wong and her work? Wear a damn mask!

Employees across multiple divisions agree: They can't imagine how the department will fulfill its legal obligations with roughly half its staff gone.

“This isn’t a coincidence. It’s the result of federal policy choices — most immediately, sweeping job cuts across public-sector agencies where Black women have long held the strongest foothold in middle-class employment.”

One of the most straightforward, radical, life affirming actions you can take right now is wearing a K/N95 mask. Community care & self care rolled into one easy act. Show up for yourself and your neighbors.

Christians with #LongCOVID and those still taking COVID-19 precautions feel abandoned by their religious institutions. In a Sick Times survey, the majority of respondents reported their churches are failing to acknowledge Long COVID. Some are creating their own spaces in response. bit.ly/4dRQZn7

An historian friend shared this Quaker-related piece of National Spelling Bee history, and now you can enjoy it too.

The professor tells me in past semesters her mask wearing inspired a few students to mask too, but this semester she has masked alone, but when I ask if she has wanted to stop, she says: “no it’s good for students to see someone doing the right thing when everyone else given up.”

A friend who did not realize her driver's license had expired until she got to TSA (and who did not have her passport) was able to use her Costco ID to fly instead. So putting it with your ID is valid!

🚨 BREAKING: Long COVID research grants rescinded earlier this week have been restored, according to researchers & patient reps. Advocates organized quickly yesterday in response to the news, helping reverse the decision. Exclusive in @thesicktimes.bsky.social thesicktimes.org/2025/03/28/u...

Disability justice asks: What if care wasn’t conditional? What if rest wasn’t earned? What if worth didn’t hinge on how useful you are to someone else?

There is a common thread among the TV that appeals to me right now and that thread is...competence.

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.

This. All of this.

A team of volunteer archivists has recreated the Centers for Disease Control website exactly as it was the day Donald Trump was inaugurated. The site, called RestoredCDC.org, went live Tuesday and is currently being hosted in Europe. Read more: www.404media.co/archivists-r...

Today @thesicktimes.bsky.social: I spoke to several federal workers with Long COVID who are deeply concerned about their future employment under the Trump administration. thesicktimes.org/2025/03/03/f...

I can't stop laughing at this (source: imgur.com/gallery/take...)

New study in Nature finds no such thing as natural immunity to covid after the arrival of omicron. Pre omicron, infection provided 80% protection against re-infection one year later. This falls to under 5% at one year with omicron

There are multiple folks working on collecting the data that's being deleted & finding accessible repositories for it, such as Internet Archive, a KFF project, etc. @healthjournalism.org is doing this as well. If you have data you can share, pls email andrea at healthjournalism.org

I wish I had had earlier exposure to #AutismAcceptance resources from the moment my son was diagnosed with autism. But I am grateful that we now have resources like the @autisticadvocacy.bsky.social Start Here guide for parents of autistic kids: autisticadvocacy.org/book/start-h... 23/

I did my first "Don't engage, just block" today (mask troll). It feels like rewiring my neural pathways. They weren't interested in hearing about how masks are highly effective but not 100%, especially in a viral laden environment where you occasionally need food or water and no one else masks.

President Biden just established the Frances Perkins National Monument in Newcastle, Maine — honoring the historic contributions of America's first woman Cabinet Secretary and the longest-serving Secretary of Labor. Perkins was the leading architect behind the New Deal.

There are no gifs on this app, but everything‘s still shit, so here, once again, is Ted Lasso as academic life:

OK, one last ICYMI on this baby, and then you'll just have to MI.

Great interview with Matt McGorry. Disability activism cannot and should not be carried entirely by the disabled.

In case it helps, here’s a link to our one-pager on how to use heart rate for pacing. workwellfoundation.org/wp-content/u...

“Long Covid has dramatically changed my life,” said McGorry, describing symptoms including debilitating fatigue, depression, dysautonomia, Raynaud’s disease and brain fog, which he called “a cute little name for brain damage”. www.theguardian.com/wellness/ng-...

Love languages for the neurodivergent • look i found something cool • parallel play • information transfer • please touch me • please do not touch me • we should watch ____ • silence What else

New Booklist time! 📚 I put together a Graphic Novel Starter Pack for TEENS! It’s a good well-rounded introduction to comics and graphic novels for the teen in your life, and a good source of holiday gift inspo for Black Friday/Cyber Monday! 📚 bookshop.org/lists/graphi... 📚

Another possible treatment for #LongCovid. I wonder if this drug would also be effective for the brain fog that comes with ME and some psych disorders (like the bipolar II that I live with). Would be cool if they could figure out which people it works for with some kind of biomarkers.

I was surprised when they featured it on a banner ad on the website for me. It's definitely not getting any attention, though. They're putting nothing behind it. Here's the trailer www.netflix.com/watch/819255...
