being an adult means that every few days you must spend £30. even if you don’t think you need something, the universe will manifest something for you to spend £30 on. all must pay

Called it. CDC is now recommending that all wastewater surveillance groups develop and implement protocols to specifically test for H5N1. 👏👏👏

I had a dream last night where I was at a mall trying to find masks to buy and I came across this shop that had a wall of every different kind of mask you could imagine. Including a new semi-clear Aura. (It looked like rice paper) The staff themselves weren’t wearing masks lmao

gonna be honest i REALLY don't like the long threads that are like i got covid with all these expensive precautions and then buried in the thread is "btw i took off my mask in public!"

I’ve started posing the question “how many times do you intend to get covid?” & that really seems to trigger people. They sure don’t like the implication that they’re trying to get infected, yet are doing absolutely nothing to prevent it or break the chain of transmission.

I forget who said it first but I think about it all the time: "I want someone to mask WITH me, not for me" (if you know who on here said it, please link)

If the only comment you have to make on Long Covid/Covid awareness advocacy is that you don’t like how *some* people are going about it, I need you to take a deep breath and think of someone other than yourself.

I hope someday immunocompromised and otherwise disabled people will be allowed to be angry about ableist abuse and endangerment instead of being labeled the villain

Fuck everyone who stood by and did nothing. Fuck the pseudo-leftists who’d rather waste their time harassing disabled people on twitter than put their mask where their mouth is & SHOW UP FOR US. We are DYING. We are FIGHTING. We have been ABANDONED. YOU DON’T GIVE A FUCK.

Jail time. Possible jail time for wearing a mask that may save your life. We're already in fascism. It's not some far threat in the future

I find the horseshoeing of antivaxxers and covid aware people fascinating. One side is like, “Here is where to find apple-flavoured horse paste. Viruses were never real” and the other side is, “This Statistics Canada report shows prevalence of long-term symptoms is 34% after 3 infxns”

The cashier understood. As did others in line. That man didn't care. I'm telling you this because so many times I've heard "well if they'd have known you were disabled they wouldn't –" I'm telling you that's a lie. Assholes don't turn unableist once we recite our disabilities.

Pretty sure this is rage bait

*whispers* it’s brain damage from covid

Brendan Jackson was the CDC Incident Manager of COVID. He is directly responsible for Covid's disappearance, the pastel maps - all of it. ncicp.org/staff-member/b… A thread on why he is lying...and how he just lied to Lygia. It starts with his uniform.

Terms that need to go away when discussing the ongoing pandemic: - jab - endemic - lockdown

Just your regular reminder that the $15/hr debate has been going on for so long that the actual living wage is now around $26/hr.

If A Quiet Place happened IRL you'd have ppl saying "Fuck that! I'll make noise if I want to. I have to live my life. You should too. Stop living in fear."
