REMINDER: A socialist act by a New Yorker was a major reason why polio was eliminated in the US.

Polio was eradicated because Jonas Salk chose not to patent the vaccine, if you want a perfect example of a socialist act.

Socialism is like polio, it comes back when people forget about the horrible damage it did last time.

So Penn got hacked and this is the hackers’ statement. Ideologically all over the place, which seems to be a trend among this generation’s antisocial discontents

What does it mean that I finally took a Benadryl out of sheer desperation and within 30 minutes, the migraine I’ve been suffering from since last Tuesday abated? #LC #MCAS

Would anyone be interested in doing a book club around CC/LC/ME related grief? I can read aloud for us and we can chime in and discuss our thoughts as they come up 😷📖😷

Curious if any #pwLC or #CovidConscious folks have read “The Wild Edge of Sorrow” by Francis Weller. I’m feeling like it’s time for me to do some grief work around LC and being CC in a world that’s moved on. Would love to hear from anyone else [interested in] doing the same

My question for the Covid conscious community is, how can we support each other in our grief? And how can we reach out to the safe people in our lives who can witness us in our grief, even if they aren’t living it? How can we stay connected as we stay safe? 🤍

It was a brief moment in time, but if felt so good to speak that aloud to a group of my peers and be held in compassion and acceptance.

At the end of the presentation, we went around the room and each shared something we grieved this week. I shared my grief around being Covid conscious in a world that has moved on, and the alienation I feel being the only one in my circle who still thinks about COVID.

Weller, informed by indigenous grief traditions and W African elder Sobonfu Somé, speaks of grief as a spiritual and cultural *necessity.* It’s our collective responsibility to hold each other in our grief with embodied expression and ceremony.

Our culture has forgotten how to honor grief. Kessler teaches that grief must be witnessed to heal. And eventually, we must find meaning to continue on despite our pain.

Fae Finding Her Way @faefindingherway.bsky.social · 17/10/2025

Weller wrote that grief isn’t limited to death. We grieve that everything we love, we will lose. We grieve the parts of ourselves that have not known love. We grieve the sorrows of the world. What we expected but didn’t receive. We grieve the unprocessed pain of our lineage.

We had an in-service about grief today at my internship site. The speaker opened her presentation by saying that grief is at the heart of what we do as therapists, which seems so obvious yet felt like a revelation to me. We’re all grieving something, and grief is always with us.

New: Multiple Voxel Pattern Analysis Shows Associations Between Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Cortical Atrophy Only abstract available currently www.frontiersin.org/journals/neu... #MEcfs #CFS

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) is a disease characterized by unexplained fatigue and impaired cognition for more than six months. Recent studies have reported declines in large-scale brain networks' functional connections among patients with CFS, and these declines correlated with the patients' symptom severity. However, these reported networks are inconsistent. Brain structure serves as the essential architecture supporting brain functional fluctuations. Investigating structural alterations could provide insights into functional changes in different brain areas and facilitate the clinical diagnosis of CFS. In this study, we recruited 37 patients with CFS and 34 healthy controls to collect their clinical assessments and structural magnetic resonance imaging data. Multiple Voxel Pattern Analysis (MVPA) was employed to recognize chronic fatigue-related brain areas, and cortical thickness was compared between the two groups. By constructing a predictive MVPA classifier with 70% balanced accuracy, we identified five relevant brain areas, including the paracentral cortex, precentral cortex, central cortex, intraparietal cortex, and superior temporal cortex. Subsequently, the results showed that the thickness of these areas had associations with fatigue severity, healthy life status, and pain levels among our subjects. Furthermore, compared to healthy controls, the thickness reduction was observed in patients with CFS. In summary, our study revealed a pathological chronic fatigue pattern for understanding CFS and suggested associations between cortical atrophy and CFS, with the aim of highlighting potential impacts of chronic fatigue. The trial was registered in the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry

Long Covid recovery update: I can now deadlift and squat 135lb x 15 again 🥲 It took 4 months of cardio and strength training but it’s a big milestone for me. Plz note I got sick in 2021, so this is years in the making. Took 2.25 years of rest to get here

Masking is one of the few things we can do as individuals that makes a material difference to our own and others' lives, so take that opportunity to make real change.

If you stopped masking, you can start again anytime. Please, just start again. Your health depends on it and you could start a wave of change within your sphere of influence that could ripple outwards into broader society.

From Dr. @harryspoelstra.bsky.social on Twitter: threadreaderapp.com/thread/18472...

L0NG C0VID is not a simple yes or no; it exists on a spectrum that ranges from asymptomatic today to severe, with many nuances in between(Personal simplified perspective):

1. Asymptomatic: You may feel fine now, but future health issues could emerge in months or years to come.

2. Mild: You can carry out your daily tasks but face challenges that you might try to conceal from others.

3. Moderate: Your ability to perform everyday activities, such as work, sports, and hobbies, is noticeably affected, requiring adjustments to your routine.

4. Severe: You are bedridden and unable to function normally.

Yes! It really does elevate the taste and curb the GI irritation on a budget. I added 0.5 tsp to a Keurig cup and it was like drinking an expensive cold brew. Added 0.25 tsp to some chai tea and tasted so many subtle flavors I’d never noticed before

TIL you can add 0.25-0.5 tsp of baking soda to coffee or black tea to neutralize the acid, which improves the flavor and makes it less irritating to the GI tract 😮
