Jim Henson would have been 90 (yup, you read that right: NINETY) years old today. You can celebrate his life by celebrating creativity, diversity, peace, imagination, and silliness.

Dolly Parton on trans rights. God I loved her.

When looking at the issue of anti-trans legislation, Parton said that “I try to get into the human element of it.” Pointing out that she has people in her life who identify as queer and trans, the 77-year-old star said it was important to hear what they’re saying.

“I know and love them all, and I do not judge. And I just see how broken-hearted they get over certain things and I know how real they are,” she said. “I know how important this is to them. That’s who they are. They cannot help that any more than I can help being Dolly Parton, you know, the way people know me. If there’s something to be judged, that is God’s business. But we are all God’s children and how we are is who we are.”

This is the thread I needed to see today. Dolly never used her own hardship as an excuse to hurt others. She used it as the reason to lift up the marginalized. She will be missed.

There aren’t many celebrities of this age whose death would be like a punch in the gut, much as l’ve loved them. Dolly Parton feels different. Like some balancing pure Good in this world is being lost. What a heart, what a voice, what a beautiful human. RIP queen. 🩷💜❤️ variety.com/2026/music/n...

It's ME(Jaime) @exceedhergrasp1.bsky.social · 08/08/2024

Today, Aug 8, is #SevereMEDay. Today we discuss severe-presenting #MECFS and remember people with severe ME. #MECFS is an infection-associated chronic illness, which means it is often, but not always, kicked off by an infection. ~Half of #LongCOVID cases at 6 mo meet the dx criteria for ME/CFS. 🧵

Two diagrams from the Mayo Clinic Proceedings article I co-authored. On the left, a diagram of a woman's body, including symptoms of fatigue, muscle aches, PEM, cognitive dysfunction, unrefreshing sleep, orthostatic intolerance, temp. dysregulation, urinary frequency, myalgia, sensory sensitivity/reactivity, swollen lymph nodes & other flu-like symptoms, shortness of breath, palpitations/chest pain, appetite changes and diarrhea/constipation. On the right, a wheel diagram of symptoms that may flare in post-exertional malaise, the pathology that occurs w/overexertion in which many symptoms flare and new symptoms may appear. It notes that PEM is not deconditioning, not being more tired than usual after activity, not second-day muscle soreness and symptoms are not necessarily relieved by sleep. It includes all the symptoms mentioned in the first diagram but has some sections on what it's like in the patient's own words.

With alt text for anyone who needs it:

A post to the "Sierra Gamers" group on Meta's Facebook:
Pulled out the old laptop and played some king's Quest last night (thumbs up emoji) then some Warcraft 3 and Pirates. When I was a kid I learned how to type playing the original Sierra games and typing in commands (100 emoji) and I'll tell you what, last night brought all those memories back.
[There is an image of a laptop screen with all the shortcuts moved over the left right hand side for some reason and a tv in the background playing Fox News with that dude who looks like if they gave Shrek Ozempic saying something that we can assume is racist as hell.]

Reply from Robert Lindsley (Program for several X's Quest games as well as Phantasmagoria and Producer of Ghostbusters: The Video Game which is actually really good and you should check it out espeically since it has the original cast and is basically Ghostbusters III in video game form):
Not sure what journey took you from playing King's Quest as a kid to watching Stephen Miller on Fox News, but I regret my role in it.

It costs over $20k to turn a van into a wheelchair van. Medicaid, Medicare, and private insurance won't pay for it. It makes me sick that rich people can waste their money on armor plating when crips like me can't get to the grocery store.

A therapist I used to see recommended a brain retraining program like this and said it cured her Long Covid. I was so angry that she tried to sell me this dangerous snake oil I never spoke to her again. The people who do this are vultures, feasting on the sick and desperate.

When I had to say goodbye to my last job due to disability, my coworkers said I shouldn't worry. Someone who's "really" sick would get benefits, they said. Whenever I wonder why non-disabled people act the way I do, I remember that.

When I was a data engineer, the thing I heard most often from users was "if I can't trust the data, it's worse than useless." Technical folks who are pushing AI think they know better than their users and users cop to it immediately.

Disability communities have so much to teach the world about community & resistance. About creativity, love, & anger. About power, justice, & politics. About acceptance & change. I wish more of you would listen to, learn from, and collaborate with us. The world would be better for it.

Folks love to quote @timothysnyder.bsky.social, often "don't obey in advance" but there're further lessons—So what’s keeping you from wearing a mask? It’s easy to fall in step if there are only maskless faces around you; break the spell of denial, set the example—we must protect the health we have.
