Imagine if the full force of the federal government was applied to laws that are routinely violated: copyright infringement, tax fraud, labor & wage violations, environmental rules, etc. Imagine federal agents snatching you at the grocery store or breaking down your door (no warrant)...

It's sweet to see ppl wanting to send hand warmers etc. to protesters in MN, but I wonder how big of a need that actually is? I'd like to see more focus on donating to the most impacted: immigrant communities. Support free immigrant legal defense, food banks delivering to immigrant families...

Listen, I've got some pretty harsh tinnitus that's sensitive af to high pitched noise. I'm on team Whistles. My discomfort will be temporary. Someone being murdered by ICE on the other hand is forever.

Following the Kent State massacre in May 1970, a Gallup poll showed that 58% of Americans thought the shootings were justified. The night *before* the killings, Ohio's GOP governor described the student protesters this way: "They're the worst type of people that we harbor in America."

So, in the case of C19, the hybrid immunity or concomitant immunity is giving only partial protection to similar past strains… at a price that is very high in terms of damage to the individual and society.

For me, the hardest things abt being very severe are: 1) the isolation, only being able to have minimal interaxn w/ caregivers. Most of all missing my children(they were 2 and 8 when i got sick, they are 5 and 11 now). I've spent as much time with them in the last 2 yrs as I used to in a single day.

I have thus far not figured out how to balance physical and mental health while very severe. Any small thing I do for my mental health destroys my physical health which in turn destroys my mental health. It feels like a trap. I need help, but it seems nothing and no one can help.

I haven't been well because of severe #mecfs from #longcovid, Lyme disease and mold. That means I can't be online more than every week or two, or sometimes every month. But I hear this is where all the cool kids are hanging out, away from evil Elon.
