I feel increasingly confirmed in my belief that most if not all of this man’s actions can be attributed to him being enraged that he has chronic illness and can’t privilege his way out of it So he hates his family & hates the medical establishment for putting him in this position and not fixing him

Only 1 person in the whole study went from identifying as trans to not identifying as trans. The 1/5 number came from youth going between the binary and non-binary spectrum. This headline and post are misleading on purpose to fit the economist's editorial bent on the political issue.

My weekly must-reads list and my thoughts on witnessing care and courage amid clouds of tear gas Friday night. "Almost 550 people across Chicagoland have been arrested by ICE during Operation Midway Blitz. It is a campaign of terror focused on a city that our president feels profound contempt for."

Something I'm working on for the cover of a new comic

do any of y'all 1) hate rfk 2) know someone (or know someone who knows someone) at @standupforscience.bsky.social #LongCovid #mecfs

In Mexico pwME hang on by a thread, no #ME experts or support. Knowing about #ME #PEM requires big privilege (online access, EN understanding, private docs). Being able to avoid physical work is also big privilege. #SevereME & #MEKills in countries like mine go uncounted. #GreatestMEdicalScandal

I really think that Dems should demand firing RFK Jr. as a condition to fund the government his negative value over replacement cabinet member is undoubtedly the highest in the administration

put a random lab tech who signed the bethesda declaration in charge of long covid

#LongCovid this is what rfk’s clown car committee was doing while he said nice words about us btw. I don’t fully understand what this means but public health people are freaking out so it seems bad!

they’re absolutely aware of the resentment in the long covid community toward the fields of public health and medical research and they want to exploit it. crying about 1.5 billion dollars with “nothing to show for it“ is an attempt to shut down further funding, and research funding in general.

and not have to import them (?!) Drugs that were helpful, patients were forbidden from using them/their doctors were blocked from accessing them. Another "ivory tower" reference, implying experts are blocking pts from drugs that would help

yes! congressional control of the purse applies to the white house as well. you can defund stephen miller.

#BoycottDisneyABC is really happening! Join in.

nightmare blunt rotation

god damn it

Does feel like this is… well if not a conscious attempt to split off the LC community’s solidarity with the rest of public health, at least at serious risk of producing that outcome :(

Officer Jenny doesn’t actually have 200 cousins, it’s the same cop that keeps getting shuffled around rural police departments due to excessive force complaints

Republicans make a major priority to tear it down, Democrats hate how gay and elitist it makes them look so they’re not really on the offensive

It’s weird how Republicans correct see higher education as a significant asset for Democrats but Democrats don’t really see it as such

libleft medical equity movement…

looking forward to whatever the fuck vaguely positive thing* rfk will say about long covid tomorrow in the middle of 1000 statements that give you rabies through the television *prompted by todd young

last repost: here's my generic take. I don't think anyone deserves to be violently killed in public (or at all). Charlie Kirk disagreed with me: "It should be public, it should be quick, it should be televised...You could have like 'Brought to you by Coca Cola' and no, I'm not kidding."

Whatever marginal decrease in near-term risk that silence buys is more than offset by the certainty that silence now ensures fascism's consolidation of power and an incredibly risky, bleak, future.

Blacksky the feed will always be Black only. Blacksky-only posts on blacksky.community will be Black only. you can think of Blacksky Algorithms the company as Reddit for AT Protocol. We will make other “subreddits” Community been here for 2 years and company for 1 year. Im the founder of both.

prions…what the fuck dude

do flat earthers have an explanation for how aviation math works since it’s all based on the earth being (more or less) round? is everyone who works in aviation supposed to be in on it or

if we can't honestly acknowledge why e.g. a mom - with 3 social young kids and a bunch of frequent family visitors - doesn't mask because she doesn't see it making much of a difference, then we're not having a real conversation about this issue

ppl I love and who love me aren’t actually “showing me they don’t value my life” by not adhering to strict masking protocol at all times 👍

Does he think New York voters can’t figure out what a senator is

thinking about this essay again

there has been an abnormal number of newsworthy coldplay shows this year, compared to the 25 year average of 0

Though it’s traumatic for me to bring this up, I was targeted by a group allied with Turning Point USA in 2018, with the help of Tucker Carlson on Fox. My home address circulated online and I got death threats. 1/

I hadn't realized that Blacksky is running an entire separate stack federated with bluesky, that's huge

You should say what the alternatives are so people understand what you mean by this. Not that they should go back to X, but that they can migrate to PDS.witchcraft.systems, selfhosted.social, blacksky.app, @transrights.northsky.social They can use zeppelin.social, blacksky.community, deer.social

Hey everyone -- I want to say thank you to everyone who has donated or even just shared my moving fund so far; we're almost halfway there! My move is in a little over 4 months away now, which is sooner than you'd think!! I'm really excited, and hoping that I can land in philly with a fresh start <3

sometimes lm just chilling and then I remember that tens or hundreds of thousands of ppl have already died bc of doge destroying usaid

There were three keynote speakers at Abundance 2025. One wrote an article saying Kirk did politics "the right way" while misrepresenting him as a champion of free speech. Another here says he prayed the shooter was an illegal immigrant so he could blame the poor, vulnerable and unprotected

advocate for your beliefs in the right way with tons of money from millionaires and billionaires to promote their preferred ideology (which I’m fairly certain the person in the screenshot also has access to, although from a somewhat different millionaires/billionaires set)

In my experience, courage is usually the product of love and/or solidarity. When we are deeply invested in each other, we are more likely to take risks that we wouldn't take out of mere principle, or for the sake of people we feel disconnected from. Our alienation mass produces cowardice.
