Dentist went ok. Cracked tooth . Will eval in a month..

Got to love when able-bodied[ privileged as f*** in that regards] person makes a Funny comment about what people should have to do and be required to do...

Today marks a day that if goes bad at the dentist means that.. Well things are likely terminal...

All-person N95 continuous wear mandates in schools and health care until ASHRAE 241 clean air standards are met. Put ENGINEERS in charge of controlling ventilation-preventable disease, they way they control water-borne disease. Physicians have none of the expertise required. Get them out of the way.

This is unacceptable by anyone who dares call themselves a hero or a professional

Influenza A (specifically including H3N2) is a Risk Group 3 bioaerosol hazard. Check out the data sheet and then plug that into the CSA standard below to see what level of protection a Canadian employer should be providing if it *may* be present in your workplace.

This is such a pathetic study. Physicians who have no knowledge of fluid mechanics ignore fluid mechanics in study design, come to erroneous conclusion about effectiveness of various fluid-mechanical protections because their study had anti-science protocols. Careful, meticulous, garbage.

I'm in bed with a massive toothache and infection. Holy crap this hurts like f******....

Not reading this ableist shit but as someone who has “jetway jesused,” did you know Covid is causing a dramatic increase in POTS, a condition that can make it impossible to stand in one place without fainting, but may otherwise allow you to walk just fine?

Wear. A. Mask. And not a "surgical" - get a properly fitting KN95/FFP2, at least; better, an N95/FFP3. Those people you don't want to offend or you're afraid will laugh at you for wearing a mask? They won't take care of you if you're disabled.

Time to do a bit more shipping today...

I thought this was pretty interesting. “Cameras that automatically capture images of vehicle license plates are being turned off by police in jurisdictions across WA state…after a court ruled the public has a right to access data generated by the technology.” www.geekwire.com/2025/washing...

Disability is complex and not always visible. People with disabilities constantly face judgment, doubt, and ill-informed opinions from people who have no idea what their lived experiences are like. How about everyone mind their own business? If they have accommodations, it’s probably for good reason

My crew is not going to like the news today...

A new systematic review & meta-analysis of 2M+ people estimates a ~36% pooled prevalence of reported long COVID after infection. claiming you "don't know anyone" who's had long COVID is statistically implausible - unless you only know like <3-4 people www.thecardiologyadvisor.com/news/more-th...

Hmm I contributed to fedora 7 damn near 20 years ago. Ive used fedora. arch debian. mint . crrunch bang . RHEL. YDL. Knoppix. DSL and more. Oh Ive also own and ran SGI and SUN ..... ran Free BSD for a year for giggles . I know my options. and onshape sucks ass .

Look at the date. Disabled people told you. They made too many disabled people.

Don't let someone give you sh*t about "avoiding" "discomfort." No trauma survivor I know "avoids" "discomfort"-- they're often absolute champions at tolerating pain. Dissociation is NOT a conscious choice to "avoid." It's a reflex many survivors find annoying & inconvenient.

Lmao. Child I have done the Linux penguin walk since 2004. 20 plus years... Linux does not run the software I have to use for my day job get bent..

Microsoft Updates Windows ‘To Stop Users Downloading Google Chrome’

OK well, apparently you can combat Firefox with Waterfox.

I hate this country

I'm going to preemptively put a post out and say I find it type quite funny I'll probably be called an apple f** the next few minutes🤣.. Yet I own one Mac and over half a dozen PCS. Hate on chumps..

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

Twenty million Americans have a completely new chronic illness from a pandemic our government said was over in mid 2022, before the two highest waves even happened. And now they are ending the subsidies that allowed millions to afford healthcare. The rage I feel could birth a new galaxy.

For the curious: there are many examples of retrospective analysis that can provide estimates of potential uncounted cases, although the most persuasive examples are for conditions with high mortality rates and large population-level spread where excess deaths can provide useful data.

What if one of the many medical shows highlighted a healthcare worker who still masks, knows COVID is still dangerous, & is continually exasperated & demoralized because all of their colleagues live in denial of a serious, ongoing threat? Now that would be compelling television!

This is why laws is that impede Mobility aids for disabled people are horrifically ableist and a death trap

This exactly how fascism always works. They make you feel threatened. They tell you the solution is to stop caring about a particular group of people. They strip those people of their rights. They manufacture another crisis to make you feel threatened. Rinse & repeat. In the end they come for you.

Everyone has abandoned me, including white only run covid groups in nz. My blood is on your hands

I really wish people could get it through their fool heads that "The Cloud" is really just a euphemism for "somebody else's computers."

And disability justice never took root in America because the sick see themselves not as disabled but (as @katieklocksin.bsky.social has put it) as temporarily embarrassed healthy people

If you don't acknowledge that dysgraphia exists I want you to unfollow me... Because you're still being ableist a******

Your reminder that EVERY. SINGLE. "long covid" impact is STILL lasting "at least" as long as this pandemic has existed. There is NO CONFIRMED UPPER BOUND to how long COVID damage lasts There is NO CONFIRMED RECOVERY from severe long COVID There is NO CONFIRMED RECOVERY for your T-Cells MASK. UP.

I hope every lawyer contemplating any action over the mismanagement of COVID / SARS-CoV-2 is very familiar with the 2006 Recommendations of the Commission investigating the mismanagement of SARS-CoV-1. Because "how we could have stopped COVID" is all there. wayback.archive-it.org/17275/202203...

Today is International Day of Persons With Disabilities - if you're not wearing an N95 in public places & at work today, you're part of the problem. A sudden, traumatic death is the ONLY way you can avoid becoming disabled someday. *Disabled people who CAN'T safely wear one get a pass.

free advice: don't get mad at a sick person w/ an unreliable body for not being able to do something the sick person is probs already pretty mad at themselves (really at their body, but internalized ableism is a helluva drug) and managing a mountain of grief from all the other things they can't do

Joshua Roman, 41, is an American cellist who once practiced 10hrs a day and toured the world performing standard and original works. After getting COVID in 2021, he developed Long COVID with severe brain fog and fatigue, becoming too weak to play his instrument or even climb stairs archive.md/Wpg33

- we are still living with a SARS virus in the air with us every day - you could still get disabled from the SARS virus at any time - there is no support and no treatment for people disabled by the SARS virus - you're the weird one if you point this out

Sadly even most drs are nurses dgaf about spreading germs to immunocompromised patients Convenience is more important than compassion to 98% of people (Americans anyway, i haven’t travelled much)

This is why I mask indoors when sharing air with others, regularly test, use air purifiers, and get a COVID booster every six months, most recently on Monday. Saddens and infuriates me governments and organisations are letting us down despite all the evidence these protections are still needed.

Something I've learned over the last 20 years of my life. Sometimes buying a used Ferrari makes more sense than a new Honda civic. Don't take this literally but it's a mindset..

This! Also, if you truly believe that accommodations (or reasonable adjustments, as we'd call them) have gone too far, there's an excellent method to ensure you never have to do any ever again. It's called inclusive learning, teaching and assessment design (or Universal Design for Learning).

"If community building is a bulwark against autocracy, then asking after one another might be a good place to start," writes @philipandrewhoover.bsky.social in last week's essay, encouraging readers to have more empathy in their conversations with loved ones who have Long COVID. (3/10)

This cause is close to my heart - please sign: A call for safe air and masking in healthcare settings #LongCovid #ME/CFS

Both viruses are rather "mild" in the acute phase, & both use the same mechanism to attack your T-cells. Are your daily (in)actions letting their deaths be in vain, or do they tell the world, "Never again!"? The answer is as plain as the nose on your face.

World AIDS Day is for mourning victims of Social Murder through systematic denial & discrimination. Just knowing the facts is not enough - we must not repeat the harm. We learned to prevent spreading HIV with gloves & condoms to avoid exposure; now for COVID we need to all wear N95s.

Me: I wish this game had a simple accessibility feature. Forum user: Have you thought about just never playing video games ever again? Have you ever thought that video games are just not right for you & it's not the game's responsibility to you? Me: a
