I’m excited to share my latest work, “The Small Life.” It explores the little things that still bring me joy as I navigate #LongCovid and #MECFS. #ChronicIllness substack.com/home/post/p-...

Massive win by the @penguinsnhl.bsky.social tonight!!

I’ve been working on a new piece, here’s a quote: “People talk about #disability like it is a single moment. One day you are fine, the next you are not. But in reality it is more like a shoreline that slowly breaks apart. A gradual unmaking instead of a sudden collapse.” #PEM #LongCovid #MECFS

Just finished an 8-hour shift. Traveling to family for the holiday tomorrow, 3-hours round trip, we’ll be gone all day. That leaves me only 2 days to recover for my 8-hour shift on Sunday. My #PEMCrash will worsen next week. 🤦‍♂️ #PEM #LongCovid #MECFS substack.com/home/post/p-...

I wrote recently about my experience with post-exertional malaise #PEM. Last year, I tried graded exercise therapy and it put me into a #PEMCrash that lasted for months. The physical therapist that “has worked with many #LongCovid #MECFS patients” had this mindset. substack.com/home/post/p-...

The majority of Long COVID research investigating exercise benefits completely ignores post-exertional malaise (PEM) - one of the core symptoms of #LongCOVID. An analysis by @thesicktimes.org showed that less than 20% of Long COVID trials involving exercise even mention PEM.

Back from work after an 8-hour shift! I’ll be resting on my back until I start another 8-hour shift on Wednesday. This is what life looks like with #LongCovid & #MECFS. Sending lots of good thoughts to everyone dealing with this tough illness. Fingers crossed for brighter days ahead for all of us!

Here’s a quote from my piece, Why I Can’t Just Meet You for Dinner, about post-exertional malaise. This is after work while I’m in the middle of a PEM crash. #PEM #MECFS #LongCovid #ChronicIllness #Disabled substack.com/home/post/p-...

I’m curious, are you feeling the same frustration with the ongoing #YouTubeTV, #Disney, and #ESPN carriage disputes? And who do you think is the most at fault?

“While employers debate return-to-office mandates and hybrid schedules, an entire workforce is quietly disappearing. Not quitting for better opportunities. Not retiring early by choice. Leaving because their bodies can no longer meet the basic assumptions of employment.” substack.com/home/post/p-...

@alexeheath.com is starting his own publication. It was the fastest I’ve ever subscribed to anything. If you are interested in #Tech you should too.

I’m launching Sources, a new publication about the tech industry’s inside conversation, and Access, a tech interview podcast with my friend @hamburger.bsky.social. The first issue of Sources drops tomorrow, featuring an interview with Mark Zuckerberg, which airs in full on Access this Thursday.

Toad the Wet Sprocket is going to livestream their Nashville show on Wednesday, September 24,2025, on Veeps. Like the 90s? Check out one of the most underrated bands of the 90s. #90sMusic #ToadTheWetSprocket #Toad #LiveMusic #Music #Concerts veeps.com/toadthewetsp...

Covid is a novel virus. It’s not, and never was, just a cold. We need to be humble and accept that five years is not enough time to know the true long term impacts. That’s why I wear an N95. It’s why I practice the Precautionary Principle. Any infection delayed or avoided is a win

I felt terrible yesterday after working. Today it’s almost impossible to stay upright. This is life with #LongCovid and #MECFS. I’m in full recovery mode so I can work on Sunday and then start vacation, which will wreck me beyond belief, next week. This illness makes you pay for living.

Just finished working 8 hours. I’ve been in a post-exertional malaise crash for a couple of weeks and I’m feeling terrible. #PEM #LongCovid #MECFS

Unpopular take coming, #GPT5 seems perfectly fine to me. 🤷‍♂️🤔

Read this article and then give the #KaraJane album, “In Limbo” a listen, available on all streaming services. #LongCovid #MECFS thesicktimes.org/2025/08/08/p...

Many folks don’t understand #LongCovid this one sentence summation is one of the best I’ve seen. “Picture waking every day with flu-level exhaustion, a migraine, and widespread aches and pains and knowing that doing too much today could steal tomorrow; that’s Long Covid and ME/CFS.”

Is anyone else loving #MLS #LeaguesCup as much as I am? It’s been a great tourney so far.

The only silver lining to a post-exertional malaise crash? Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 3 premieres today with two episodes. Perfect timing to rest, recover, and boldly watch where no one has watched before. 🖖 @ansonmount.bsky.social #LongCovid #MECFS

This is life with Long Covid and ME/CFS. I’m experiencing a post-exertional malaise (PEM) crash again today. The extreme fatigue and cognitive issues are overwhelming, and I can’t even sit upright due to profound weakness. #LongCovid #MECFS

I pushed beyond my energy limits, and I’m experiencing severe post-exertional malaise, characterized by increased headaches, muscle, and joint pain. I find it difficult to remain upright and often have to lie down. This is the reality of #LongCovid.
