Covid damage is cumulative. The part that “feels like a cold or flu” isn’t the long term damage, and every time you allow your body to catch covid it piles more on the “maybe long covid will take effect this time” load. I think most people don’t know they already have long covid.

I contend that people would be more afraid of it if long covid symptoms presented uniformly. of the irl people I KNOW OF covid gave 1 cardiac issues, 1 got MCAS, 1 Bell’s palsy, 1 lost sense of smell, 1 has bilateral tremors, & 1 became narcoleptic. no fucking thanks. I’m as disabled as I wish to be

A friend has Covid right now. They have lost their sense of smell and they're having cognitive problems. This hit me today, as it often does: we made, and continue to make, a huge collective mistake in allowing a virus that impacts the brain to transmit unmitigated globally.

Nobody is going to want to hear this, but a real risk we face, no matter who is president next, is that they will see no need to restore the rights lost or the executive power stolen in the last 10 years.

The person claiming to have doxed Jane Doe in the Cornell rape case is Aidan Thompson, a groyper nazi who runs "AF Post" which he took over from Ali Alexander (who also once faced sexual assault allegations of his own). Thompson described himself as a "rape expert" in his videos leading up to this.

shutting down frat houses won't end rape culture, but it will disorganize a lot of rapists, and i think that's probably worth doing if only to destabilize what is apparently an ecology of organizations that functionally exist to rape women per the whole "purpose of a system is what it does" insight.

Michael Tracey is actively attempting to dox Jane Doe in the Cornell 7 rape case

Michael Tracey : If you happen to know who this Cornell "Jane Doe" is, get in touch and I would be happy to publish her name and identifying information. And yes -- this is 100% permitted under the First Amendment, whatever threats or emotional blackmail people might want to deploy

"Report" me for what, exactly? Save your breath, scumbag. Sorry you hate the First Amendment so much. Her identity is obviously newsworthy at this point, and I will take extreme pleasure in reporting it. (Not "doxing" -- that's a total canard)

This means to protect public health and create more access for people whose absence in social life was taken for granted before the pandemic began shouldn’t be ceded for the false and temporary trappings of “normalcy.” It’s ground that should be maintained wherever possible.

Let’s not forget that the precautions we associate with Covid (clean air, PPE like masks) were *lessons* more of us learned in the earlier stages of the pandemic. Lessons that, applied, can protect from many other viral illnesses and create greater access for immunocompromised people.

SO much love for the covid cautious spaces that maintain their shared principles under enormous pressure to capitulate. When organizers commit to accessibility they send the message that the participation of disabled agitators is understood as critical.

What a surprise, the organizers of the covid cautious dyke bar hated the article, rejected its framing, and is defending their covid cautious patrons and performers. Anyone who joined in on the viral harassment campaign started by Jesse Singal wanna say oops or…? recorder.com/2026/09/24/g...

Current and former owners of Last Ditch could not be reached by phone, email or social media. However, Last Ditch did share on Instagram that the Globe story allegedly misconstrued statements from Noire, and urged community members to stop harassing Noire.
"It is neither productive, progressive, nor valiant to attack a Black patron. He has been a collaborator and performer of Last Ditch for a while, and he deserves to speak his mind about accountability and repair from the bar," the Last Ditch statement reads. "There are so many misconceptions due to the disorganization of the Globe article. He did not call for the bar to be firebombed. Further, he did not disparage the owner for being homeless.
"As a result of this abysmal journalism, he has been getting additional threats, slurs, harassment, and is being reported to the police over something he did not do," Last Ditch continued. "This is not supporting us at Last Ditch, and it is, at its core, anti-Blackness hysteria."

Everyone hates on the Democrats for being feckless and incompetent. But it is conceivable that one day they *won't* be. We could very well see a Democratic party become vigorous and effective at pursuing their central values: defending power and destroying the left.

I didn't even read the Globe article but all I can think of, in addition to everyone's frustration at being laughed at for still masking, is I'm like... Some people had a masks required bar they could still go to in 2026. I haven't even had friends or family who've masked since 2024 at the latest.

last thing i’ll say: it’s the furthest thing from “entitled” to ask that one of last spaces who not only understands but takes a swing at centering a specific kind of accessibility continue to honor that. access needs are not entitlement. conversely, we should ALL value—& are entitled to—clean air.

it is no exaggeration to say that the only way 300,000+ masks were distributed to angelenos as our city burned is bc we learned how to do this kind of thing together: in our leisure spaces, at our drag shows. you laugh—til you need us. and i’ll have a mask for you, because we all deserve clean air.
