My hair My skin My teeth My lungs My heart My kidneys My brain My immune system My thyroid My nails My energy My vision My nervous system My hearing All things damaged by a ‘mild’ covid infection. Mask up. Look out for each other.

This amazingly brave LGBTQ+ refugee and her baby arrived in Canada today, and will need lots of financial help to get trauma treatment and settled in. Please donate!!!

Why does Rebeka have to beg for 50c while a fucking white racist lady can raise $750 000 for yelling racial slurs at a Black child in a park? Rebeka is a Black non-binary cancer patient who needs financial support to access healthcare. They're not even asking for a huge amount. Help them????

Them: We don’t know why everyone is so sick. Me: Fallout from multiple Covid infections? Them: Yeah, probably. Me: That’s why I mask. Them: Smart move. Me: Maybe you could think abou… Them, walking away: Oop, gotta run. Take care…

I’m honestly very impressed & surprised by how little people w/ ME crash out on the internet, all things considered

I'm still very ill right now but I have received little mutual aid this month and I seriously need to address my impending bills🤦🏽‍♀️ $maelee21 V: @ Maelee-Johnson PayPal.me/maeleeJ ko-fi.com/maedaej #HelpFolksLive2025

As COVID's long term consequences are revealed to the public, by brute force, what credibility will be left for all those physicians who minimized COVID and encouraged their patients to become infected again and again? It will be a crisis for the profession of epic proportions.

We spent $150K in the last month and only raised $58K. Thankfully the earlier Itch Bundle fundraiser meant that we haven’t yet ran out. All support is deeply appreciated to keep Gazans connected through forced starvation & colonial violence: bit.ly/eSimsRUs #ConnectingGaza

Shingles. HPV. Herpes. HIV. We aren’t new to long lasting impacts from viruses. We have been subject to a relentless barrage of propaganda when it comes to the relatively new (just over half a decade) but widely documented ill effects of post acute Covid infections.

Seeing inspirational posts that assume your only problem is LC or ME (or other chronic illness) might be my psychic undoing. Like poverty exists, isolation exists, food & medical deserts exist. Sometimes there’s nothing to hold onto.

This might be a wild take, but public spaces (healthcare, transit, grocery stores, pharmacies etc) should be accessible to everyone & no one should have to risk death or disability from a virus by going to one

Weird moment today when a woman whispered “why?” right into my ear as she passed by me on the sidewalk. I think it was in reference to my mask but I can’t be certain. It was unsettling but at least I managed to get outside, I guess.

I’m trying to figure out how #COVID and #LongCovid can affect women's periods (by disrupting brain circuitry involving the hypothalamus) for a big project. Do you or anyone you know have had disruptive changes in the menstrual cycles after getting COVID or any of the symptoms below?

PLEASE SHARE! I'm reporting on #H5N1 #BirdFlu (#AvianInfluenza #HPAI) for @thesicktimes.bsky.social, & want to talk to farmworkers or people who work with them re impacts of H5N1 on farmworkers. I'm especially interested in hearing re human cases since Feb 2025. Sources can be anonymous! (1/4)

I saw a post on Twitter earlier today by @hazie.bsky.social mentioning Hazie's GFM. Sharing this here so we can reach those who have left the bad place. If you're able to, please help Hazie. GFM link is in Hazie's profile. ✨

The “You think everything is Covid” refrain is a well worn turn of phrase used to terminate conversation & belittle the observant. It has been employed lazily but effectively from “You think everything is racism” through a litany of isms & phobias. Don’t fall for it. Mask up.

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.

If folks truly believed that covid was a cold, or mild or over they wouldn’t be afraid to say its name. They wouldn’t come up with every excuse under the sun when they were hacking up a lung days or weeks on end. They know it still here & they know it’s still dangerous. #MaskUp

I was already curtailing events because im covid conscious. But watching men kidnap people in broad daylight? Nope. Gas station, work, grocery store and that's it. Im not going outside when everywhere is a sundown town.

Paper after paper showing the long term harms of covid. People of all ages sick with myriad chronic health issues. Ongoing spread, infection after infection for the general public while the wealthy watch from retro-fitted clean air conclaves & profit from our denial. #MaskUp

So many people were hoping the Senate bill would cut it slightly less. This is devastating for so many people.

We have already seen adults complaining about poor performance, lack of motivation and malingering in children & teens without considering the known cognitive and energy limiting impacts of post-Covid conditions. We have and are continuing to fail our kids.

Anyone tried lowish-dose (10mg) Vyvanse for Long Covid or ME?

As I mentioned earlier, the end of the report, with its intensively structured numbered list is written by AI. AI also hallucinates studies and cites them. The MAHA report was likely written by AI in chunks. There's a good bet even the so-called authors aren't aware of its contents.

There may be folks who “just don’t care” about COV*D but I feel most are caught in some form of fight, flight, freeze or fawn. Maybe the anger, the denial, the inaction & of course the placating with ‘healthy habits’ are all unhelpful trauma responses. I’m trying to understand.

Yup, and it's so hard to get liberals/leftists to see how their embrace of Covid denialism is directly connected to things like losing cancer therapies. Reminder that Covid/the pandemic never ended, Biden lied to the public to force ppl back to work. Mask up and fight for public health!

I think between the splintering of folks across Bluesky, Threads and Mastodon as well as my ill advised attempts to navigate TikTok my social media capacity is broken. There’s just whirring sounds where my ‘outside thoughts’ used to be. Bzzzzz. Click. Brrrrrrr. Wear a mask.
