If Trump had the same healthcare access as me, I'm fairly sure he would have died 200 times already.

If we ever learn how to speak to animals, the first thing we should translate is, "Calm down, I'm trying to help you!"

I bet you cannot guess my all-time favorite Marvel or DC hero! (Hint: It's not Superman.) If you've ever seen a real hero and wondered why you were so deeply moved, this article explains why. We all face the same choices as the people in our hero stories. open.substack.com/pub/secondha...

The "moral" code at the center of US politics and economics is survival of the fittest, where the strong eat the weak. The best evidence for this is all the times we reward or forgive abusers and punish or abandon their victims. It's the moral code that has to change.

I'm having one of the worst ME/CFS flare ups not because I'm 100% incapacitated but because I'm 90% incapacitated. That 10% is taunting me. #mecfs #neis #neisvoid #chronicillness

I've said it before and I'll say it again... Medical Advocate should be a common job, and every American should have one. We need an advocate when we're trying to get a diagnosis or find the right treatment. To navigate a broken system. Or the moment we enter a hospital. #chronicillness

Artemis from my backyard. It's strange to see them flying to the moon when basic healthcare is still out of reach.

I know I’m not the only one trying to get a handle on grief, so I’m sharing this to help normalize what people don’t see from me: •My hobby burnout •My amplified social anxiety •My difficulty meeting deadlines •My inability to keep track of time •My guilt in joy You’re not weird. You’re healing 💛

I grew up watching Star Trek: The Next Generation, and one of the qualities I loved most about it was that it felt universal and uniting, like it was truly made for everyone. Multiple views could come together under the umbrellas of reason and compassion, and diversity was normal.

We are built to live each day in the warmth of community, with friends and family and fellow villagers and a small, familiar social world that supports us. If you feel the pain of our chronic absence of community, congratulations... you are a human.

If you're coping with chronic illness, it's okay to take things slow. I know you already know that, but sometimes we just need to hear someone say it.

Before chronic illness, I went to festivals, hiked through forests, swam in the ocean, and gardened in my backyard. I still do all of that... just virtually. Does it still count? My mind and heart say YES! #chronicillness #neisvoid #cfs #pots #secondhaven #minecraft SecondHavenMC.org

In all of this mayhem and heartbreak, moments of lightheartedness, humor, or play could seem irresponsible, but they are vital. Little joys, especially shared, viscerally remind us why we're fighting.

I live about 20 minutes from the beach but have been housebound for months with #chronicillness #cfs. My outlet is #Minecraft. So here's my day at the beach! A sand castle the size of a mansion. So relaxing and I'm not even tired. #neis #longcovid #secondhaven

I run a small community for people with #chronicillness (plus friends and family), and it came up recently that being bedridden is unavoidable and depressing, but there's still pressure to have hope. That's one hard part about #cfs. We must expect a recovery that never comes. #neisvoid
