  1. I saw people on my TL talking about the last time they cooked for someone else and in my case, that's easy to remember:

    February 2020, just before I went into pandemic isolation.

    Because February 2020 + the first week of March 2020 are the last times I did anything involving other people.

  2. It can't be said better than this. 😂 😷 ✊🏼

    Anywhere, but especially in the US, drive carefully and wear a mask FFS, these people are gonna kill us all if we let them. Stay alive out of spite!

  5. More good news about COVID vaccines!

    cidrap.umn.edu/covid-19/covid-

    "COVID-19 patients who were vaccinated against the virus were much less likely to infect household members than unvaccinated patients"

    "…household contacts of patients vaccinated in the past six months were 43% less likely to test positive than household contacts of unvaccinated sick people, the study shows"

    This effect was not found if the vaccine was more than 7 months ago.

  6. CW: Covid vax, US

    If anyone is planning to get a spring Covid vax, I recommend to inquire with your pharmacy to find out what your options are, sooner than later. Mine has a dwindling supply of doses but many are expiring at the end of this month and they didn't know when more would be available (bc of course they don't). So I got #Novavax #Nuvaxovid

  7. I might be really late to the game with this realisation but I think I figured something out today. I think wearing a mask makes most people feel unsafe, even though it's making them safer in reality, and they'd rather be unsafe than feel unsafe.

    I think that's why they say things like they don't want to live in fear, or they don't want to life life behind a mask. They feel afraid when they mask. Maybe it reminds them there's something to be scared of?

    I would never say "lockdowns caused problems for mental health," because our capitalist democratic governments caused all the problems with their "get them infected" necropolicies.

  10. Sadly, they're reporting 5 #COVID deaths the week ending May 2, so we can't say there were zero deaths in #NYC in April. But there were zero #COVID19 deaths for four straight weeks, from March 29 through April 25!

    COVID cases are also down below 8 per lakh per day, the lowest in three years. #RSV and #flu cases are all down as well, though they're not yet at the summer baselines yet!

    #COVIDIsNotOver so I still #WearAMask in pharmacies, doctors' offices, hospitals and nursing homes!

  14. They understand 1/5 of the world's oil in the Strait of Hormuz, but not the 1/5 long covid from covid infections. Who's gonna buy the oil if we are all home sick? Who's gonna fight the wars if we are all home sick? It doesn't matter what side of what battle you are on, if we can't get on one side and beat this virus. So.... #MaskUp #COVIDIsNotOver

  15. RE: amicale.net/@franceinfo/116571

    J’ai l’impression que vous ne mesurez pas forcément à quel point l’indifférence de ce monde détaché de la réalité des faits vérifiables et vérifiés peut être traumatisante. J’ai beau avoir la chance de pouvoir vivre en ermite par choix et sans en souffrir, ma nausée existentielle n’a jamais atteint de tels sommets. Eugénisme et validisme et donc fascisme partout, #AutodéfenseSanitaire nulle part. #CovidIsNotOver

  16. Mom's physical exam is done & she is relieved things went well. The waiting room was empty before & after her appointment. Empty waiting rooms are our fave 👍
    Her GP has been good with masking up for all of her medical appointments. He's also been respectful about womens' safety needs, due to past traumatic, unprofessional experiences with her prior creepy GP. Mom also got her pneumonia shot at her appointment. She's getting her covid booster next week.

    I'm going to feed all of our roses, with the hydrated alfalfa fertilizer that I made yesterday. I'm making another bucket for our trees, shrubs & berry plants.
    I have 2 client appointments, later in the day.

  17. “It’s 2026, and culture has frozen into nostalgia – the pop charts replicate the records of multiple of our youths (everything from the 60’s to the 90’s), Sequels and franchises dominate the box office, and some people still believe it’s safe outside without a respirator.”

  19. RE: social.afront.org/@MLE_online/

    ✅ I'm glad companies are looking for ways to address the AI nightmare in hiring.

    ❌In-person events, much like video interviews, favor a small group of people based on social privilege (age/race/class/size/colorism/conventional beauty standards) to the gross disadvantage of everyone else.

    ❌Unless these events are hybrid, it's an accessibility nightmare for so many people (including covid-serious people).

    My god, I hate (the abuse of) "AI" (i.e., LLMs).

  20. Some keywords for an upcoming event in #VictoriaBC I heard about in the covid-cautious group chat:

    "a new pollinator-oriented micro-opera"

    "Gay4Nature Collective"

    "[birdwatching] tour begins at 2pm sharp!"

  21. Another ME/CFS fact: It can be triggered by COVID infection. Not all Long Covid cases meet ME/CFS diagnosis but many do. For more info see this Bateman Horne Center blog post:

    COVID-19 Triggers ME/CFS

    batemanhornecenter.org/covid-1

    "… among participants infected with SARS-CoV-2, the incidence of ME/CFS—defined using the Institute of Medicine (IOM) diagnostic criteria—was 15 times *higher* than pre-pandemic rates."
