This afternoon, at #Levenshulme Old Library, #Manchester 12;30-5:30pm (I'm not organising this, just promoting it)
Fat Positive Clothes Swap
Bring clothes you don't want and swap them for clothes you do, in an affirming space. No diet talk allowed!
This swap is for people of any gender, who wear a size 16/L+ in clothing.
We don't operate a token system because some folks bring more than they'd like to take away, and others bring nothing/very little and take away more.
£3-5 donation on the day (cash/card reader available) to cover the costs of putting on the event.
Covid-19 Harm Reduction
We ask ALL attendees to wear a mask at the swap. Spare masks will be available on the door!
We also encourage everyone to consider e.g. testing before attending, and obviously not attending if you have any symptoms.

CW: Family, emotional abuse, Covid deaths
Sometimes I can't stop thinking about things that I've experienced from my parents. I remind myself of these things whenever I feel bad about not visiting them.
I want to relate a time when we had one of my husband's relatives here at our house to care for them during their hospice. They had arrived at our house in 2019, and so they were luckily already here when Covid started, and avoided the severe sickness and death running through elder and long term care facilities at the time.
We felt very lucky. They lived with us for over 4 years, and when they needed to have hospice healthcare workers come here to our house, we were vigilant about running a Corsi-Rosenthal box plus multiple HEPA filters, and having everyone wear decent masks. Our relative never caught Covid, and died of their long term illness as unfortunately was expected.
But my own family became upset that I wasn't visiting them. Even when I tried to explain that we had a fragile person in our house, going through hospice. Members of my family seemed to think I should be visiting them anyway, even though they did not protect themselves from Covid and were catching Covid repeatedly.
One of my parents told me that I was selfish. I was selfish! For wanting to protect the person going through hospice in my home. Because I didn't want to go visit with this parent who could have given me Covid and caused the death of my relative in hospice. Not to mention what Covid could do to me or my husband.
I was selfish, they said.
No wonder I have not gone to visit them. But I wish I could really absorb that, and stop feeling bad about not seeing them.

I agree with his points with the exception of his remarks about #COVID19
For example, I don’t find it reassuring to read that 70% of young people recover within 2 YEARS! And what of the 30%?
Some may have a greater chance of contracting #LongCOVID than others but it’s not entirely predictable. Personally, I don’t want to play Russian roulette with my health. #WearAMask

I regret to inform you that 6 people died of #COVID in #NYC the week ending September 26. They're the first deaths since the beginning of May, but six is still too many.
Fortunately, #COVID19 cases and hospitalizations aren't rising as fast as before, so I'm hoping the wave is cresting, still below the threshold I set for going into Outbreak Mode. #Flu and #RSV cases continue to rise, but are still very low.
#COVIDIsNotOver - I #WearAMask in doctors' offices and I'm going to #GetVaxxed soon!
