"Only the Green Party has the policies to address inequality, through taxes on wealth; tackle the cost of living crisis with rent controls and raising the minimum wage; and fight climate breakdown through a nationwide home insulation programme and turbocharging renewables" - @carladenyer.bsky.social
Conservatives: for billionaires, inequality, and environmental damage

Carla Denyer
MP for Bristol Central

“Today Kemi Badenoch once again defined the Conservative Party as pro-billionaires, pro-inequality and pro-damaging the environment.”
 
“However much money you throw at it, you cannot have national security without action on the climate crisis. You cannot make this country fairer while you continue to favour the super-wealthy over ordinary working people, and you will not help young people into work by removing worker protections and support.”
 
“Cutting inheritance tax, cutting welfare and reigniting a new round of austerity reminds us that this is a party working for the wealthy few, not the majority.”

This reply nails it. 🎯 Source: x.com/LadyChuan/st...
An image of a thread on social media platform X from July 8, 2026.
The initial post by ABG (@taureanlady5) expresses concern about the frequency of young people experiencing severe medical events. It reads: "What is up with all these folks my age having strokes? Seems like strokes in our forties was almost unheard of 20, 25 years ago. This is so scary. Getting my next physical soon."
A detailed reply by Lady Chuan (@LadyChuan) links these health trends directly to long-term post-viral effects. The comment reads: "Do better. Wear. A. Mask. KN95 or better. I'm quite sure that you know by now COVID is a CHRONIC VASCULAR DISEASE that enters the body by a virus called SARS which INITIALLY presents itself as a respiratory illness."
The reply goes on to claim that the virus persists in the endothelial lining, leading to a over 50% increase in strokes, heart attacks, and embolisms, a 67% increase in cancer, T-cell destruction, immune disorders, and that common "colds" are frequently undetected cases.

Happy #MaskWeek! If, like many people, you stopped wearing a mask years ago, it’s not too late to start again 🩵 Doesn’t have to be all the time. Any time you mask you’re less likely to get sick or pass on whatever you might have picked up, & you might even avoid a life ruining infection.

"Life is about risks. You don't need to wear that mask. You could go outside and be hit by a car anyway" True, but I take precautions there too like looking both ways when I cross the street, and wearing a seatbelt when I'm a passenger. Masks are no different.

I want to stress: COVID IS a test of moral integrity. You can check wastewater data in your area. Levels of community transmission are high where I am. I am just as vulnerable to COVID as I was in 2020. I would be safer if other people acknowledged that and took action to get boosters and wear N95s

COVID, influenza etc are airborne, transmitted in bioaerosols that require routine wear of N95 / FFP2/3 respirators and high-quality ventilation to stop. If your hospital doesn't have both, the people making those decisions either don't care if you get infected, or are nearly a century out of date.
Text from 1 1934 paper by Wells entitled "ON AIR-BORNE INFECTION.  STUDY II. DROPLETS AND DROPLET NUCLEI." reading:

It appears, therefore, that transmission of infection through air may take one of two forms depending upon the size of the infected droplet. The form first recognized and most obvious is droplet infection proper. It applies to droplets larger than a tenth millimeter in diameter, which are rapidly removed from the air by gravity, before they can dry, and within a short distance of the source. The second form may be called air-borne infection, and deals with dried infected droplet nuclei, derived directly from droplets less than a tenth millimeter diameter, depending primarily upon air for the buoyancy which keeps them suspended for long times and carries them long distances. Droplet infection may change into air-borne infection when larger drops settle, evaporate and are lifted into the air as dust.

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque: "This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".
Bronze plaque saying "A Letter to the Future. Ok is the first Icelandic glacier to lose its status as a glacier. In the next 200 years all our glaciers are expected to follow the same path. This monument is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it.  August 2019. 415ppm CO2"

Immune dysregulation lasting 9-12 months following infection—and people without mitigations getting Covid at least once a year. So, an acquired immune deficiency—but on a subscription plan. But don’t worry, it deducts from your Immunity Card when it’s time for renewal.
