How much of “learning loss” is actually cognitive dysfunction due to neurological injury?

you don't need an umbrella when all your clothes are made from plastic

Sauces that pair nicely with eating the rich

Sitting here in a cancer infusion center waiting for a friend. Lots of wet coughs and I’m the only person masked. No hope. I have no hope for the future.

adopting COVID-conciousness into my politic and taking intentional steps in line with it was easy once I realized most things aren't worth the risk of getting or spreading COVID (or other infectious diseases for that matter).

Today I learned that when you get married and combine auto policies the insurance company assumes you will both drive each car. Men's insurance goes down because women are less risky drivers. Women's insurance goes up because men are more risky drivers.

I’m devastated over the murders of Alex Pretti & Renee Good. But I’m disgusted by people saying shit like “where is the respect for human life?” Motherfuckers, you lost the right to say that when you decided to unmask during an ongoing SARS pandemic. You paved the way for this.

one day, 'civil liberties defenders' are going to become the elderly and/or disabled people they agreed could fall by the SARS2 wayside... ...and the kids whom they raised to dehumanize the old and disabled, and whom they *also* abandoned to SARS2, are going to dehumanize and abandon them, too.

The Venn diagram of people who ask why anyone still wears a face mask in 2025 & people who just kind of blankly stare at me and don't know what to say when I tell them that the last time I had the flu, it gave me Celiac disease and now I can't eat gluten without going to the ER- is a circle.

Yes, mental health and bullying play a role. Both issues are almost certainly made worse by a neuroinvasive virus which causes anxiety and affects executive functioning, leading to increased aggression and diminished resiliency. Oh, and then there’s good ol’ ILLNESS. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

It’s impossible to be objective about a virus you’ve been infected with multiple times. This goes for doctors, healthcare workers, scientists, journalists, your friends and family—and maybe even yourself. #COVID

progressives will wax poetic about the importance of being strong allies and advocates for the marginalized—until it comes to putting their money where their mouth (and nose) is, because masking interferes with their weekly brunch plans

Running a small service business in a ongoing pandemic that few people acknowledge is weird because 30% of your clients for the week will cancel due to illness and it's like, oh okay I'll just cut down on all the beans & rice I'm eating and not pay the electric bill I guess.
