Made the mistake of leaving my house the same day there’s a BTS concert at Stanford 💀

"For pathogens with documented person-to-person spread & severe outcomes the initial assumption should be airborne risk unless & until evidence supports easing back. The burden of proof should not be on those arguing for caution. It should be on those arguing to relax it" www.bmj.com/content/393/...

interviewer: what’s your greatest weakness? me: oh they’re all pretty great

Scorpio: Don't bother tying yourself to the mast because the sirens aren't interested in you.

u never see this on a tradlife mood board

How 'bout them Gophers?!!? Minnesota entered the NCAA Tournament ranked 13th. Now it's headed to its first national final. After finishing behind UCLA in the regular season, B1G championships, and the NCAA regionals, the Gophers knock off the Bruins in the national semi. Hot damn.

It’s her birthday this week

Everyone wants to think of themselves as a Lestat, the sanguine brat prince, or a Louis, the manic pixie dream vampire everyone is in love with. But I know my place. I'm an Armand

Finally catching up on AMCs Interview With the Vampire. Just getting into S2. Did this Theatre des Vampires guy just show Claudia Chekov's rat box? I HAVE CONCERNS

Sigh. If only we had learned from the start of COVID that work from home has many benefits, instead of being inexplicably forced back to the office by out-of-touch CEOs.

Hi, nice to meet you. Would you like to exchange pleasantries while masking our true selves

Welcome to NCAA gymnastics where the scores are made up and deductions don’t matter 🙃

Kickstarter starts Monday morning. There’s an early bird special for the first 48 hours so sign up to be reminded now—plus we have some amazing cover artist announcements! Do you need to know anything about Dan Dare to enjoy this book? NOPE

It’s the year of the horse and I don’t have a horse anymore. I hate it here

I’m going to say again, infecting your allies with a potentially debilitating and deadly illness is extremely foolish behavior in any kind of movement. You’re doing work for the other guys.

When you hear them ask (and you will hear them ask) why astronauts and Olympic athletes are still wearing masks in 2026, kindly but firmly reply that the real question is if astronauts and Olympic athletes are still wearing masks in 2026 then why aren’t the rest of us.

I wrote this and I put my all into it—an 80 page SF novella with complicated characters, big action, and some really exciting worldbuilding. Please sign up / consider pledging when it’s live on March 1!

No new pictures. Where are you at mentally

Evidently Holiday thinks Edmund Howard’s letter to Cardinal Wolsey begging for help with his debts is a pile of 💩

I’m reading the tragedies of Euripides and Hippolytos is sending me. Theseus just banished him and he’s like, Dad I swear I’m a virgin who can’t drive and although I do look at porn I did not fuck your wife because as I mentioned earlier in this play, women are disgusting

It’s a great time to be alive if you’re a piece of shit who hates consequences

In 2026 let’s normalize masking for public health. If we could admit that with healthcare being gutted, vaccine access restricted and previously eradicated diseases coming back… having an extra layer like a respirator makes good sense. Let’s also normalize not mocking people who mask!

Adios has been the most wonderful teacher, competition partner, and best friend I could ever ask for. I am so grateful I got to spend this time with him. I wish we could ride together forever but at 21 years old, he has earned his retirement in South Carolina. Adios, Adios I will love you forever 🩵😭

By now you have probably heard the bad news: that yet another study has found that Covid can cause long-term brain alterations. So now you should really hear the good news: that there is still time for you to alter your behavior so you don’t catch Covid.

The Northeast Public Health Collaborative and West Coast Health Alliance have issued statements that continue to recommend the hepatitis B vaccine for all newborns. It's encouraging that regional health alliances are stepping up to counter disinformation spread by federal health agencies.

Just 3 DAYS and a bit over $700 left to reach my goal on the DREAMHOUSE Kickstarter! Help me hit that goal and maybe add a stretch goal or two! www.kickstarter.com/projects/rob...

Wish me luck—The Scottish Boy (+ a new, similar book!!!) is out on sub to publishers, hoping to find a new home post-Unbound. The book sold out 3 print runs & did big audio numbers on word of mouth, so I hope a new publisher can build on that. If you liked the book, pls RT 💕 synopsis in alt txt

Call your elected officials. Get loud. Tell them you’re demanding public health leaders follow the science. The science says that the COVID vaccine is not only safe, but it saves lives. Long Covid has surpassed asthma as the most common chronic illness in children. The kids deserve protection

Y'all, the hospital where I had my surgery is running trials to see if GLP-1 medications can help people suffering from long COVID. It's open to any person with documented long COVID who lives in the US. Please pass it on!

If you’re still wearing a mask… thank you. Thank you for recognizing that disabled people aren’t expendable. Thank you for showing solidarity with us. Thank you for caring about your health & the health of those around you. It’s a powerful act of community care & it’s never too late to start!

Also integrating N95 masks into your daily practice when around others. That’s a fantastic first-line measure (which can be performed every day and doesn’t lose effectiveness over time) against infecting the vulnerable.

I will not deny it: it is a lonely thing (it is a very lonely thing) to continue taking precautions after your coworkers and family and friends have abandoned taking them, but in such moments I remind myself that it is better to feel lonely than to have this virus for company.

Getting a vaccination isn't just about reducing your chance of getting an infection. It' s more importantly about reducing the chance of you spreading that infection to someone else for whom it could be more serious. Think about others, not just yourself.

In response to the dismantling of the CDC, California, Oregon, and Washington have launched the West Coast Health Alliance, which will make their own science-based vaccine guidelines, and make sure vaccines are accessible to everyone.

for the love of fucking christ get your pets vaccinated, rabies may be one of the shittiest ways of dying you can possibly imagine

I will die on this hill: it isn’t hard to say “at the height of the pandemic” or “at the start of COVID” during a podcast interview. Producers, hosts, don’t let your guests say “during COVID” like this thing is over. Correct them. Ask them to say the sentence again. This is your job.

Why ARE cartoons so SERIOUS? - One of the many questions posed in my new book, SUPER EGO. Now LIVE on Kickstarter. Get yours here: www.kickstarter.com/projects/jas... #thejoker #joker #batman #comics #cartoonist #comicbooks #kickstartercomics

To summarize -waves are not seasonal -vaccines are waning -people are getting long covid -it’s still not an endemic disease -very young kids are at increased risk because they didn’t go through the initial vaccine series Oh and it turns out, Covid Cautious people have been right the whole time.

Two things had a huge influence on the CDC shooting: 1️⃣ The head of HHS spreading antivax rhetoric 2️⃣ Social media companies failing to address rampant antivax misinformation on their platforms
