Patients with ME or post-covid are often so sick that they cannot leave their homes. That is why they hardly participate in scientific research. Dutch doctors & researchers are now driving a laboratory bus to reach them: 'This experience is indescribable.' by Ellen the Fisherman #ME/CFS #pwME

The MAGA regime recently killed the largest ancient 250 year old “Grandmother” Cottonwood tree in Arizona’s indigenous territory just to expand the orange felon’s fucking wall. I’ll never forgive anyone who chose this evil.

This afternoon in Marble Hill, a New Yorker was shot by an ICE agent in a residential neighborhood. Early reports indicate agents surrounded him and a 5-year-old child in his car before firing multiple rounds. We believe the child was physically unharmed.

This is an unconscionable and incredibly serious situation. I have called the President; when we speak I will demand that he ends all ICE enforcement actions in our city. I will not stand by while ICE agents terrorize our communities.

Our thoughts are with the injured New Yorker and his family tonight. We are praying for his recovery.

Get ICE out of our neighborhoods. Get ICE out of our hospitals. Get ICE off our streets. Get ICE away from our children.

Abolish ICE.

Voters want a Democratic Party that fights back against the forces that have rigged the system and made their lives more difficult. A party that comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable —not a party that buckles and capitulates. Dems need to be on the side of the many, not Big Money.

The Pentagon plans to publicly execute Nidal Hasan and live stream it into the homes of every American. Hasan is a disabled paraplegic. What he did was horrendous, but killing him & streaming it as entertainment is sick and morally bankrupt. Abolish the death penalty.

In 2022, planetary geologist & NASA astronaut Dr. Jessica Watkins became the first Black woman to serve on a long-duration International Space Station mission. She spent 170 days in orbit executing vital medical, biological, and physical sciences experiments. #WorldSpaceWeek🚀 #WomenInSTEM
An official NASA portait of planetary geologist and history-making NASA astronau,Dr. Jessica Watkins. She smiles warmly in a formal portrait, exuding a focused and joyous mood. Captured from the waist up against a deep blue background, she is framed by the American flag on the left and the NASA logo flag on the right. Dr. Watkins is posed leaning forward slightly, her hands calmly resting on a dark surface in the foreground, showcasing her short, natural hair, gold hoop earrings, and open, vibrant expression. She wears a crisp, royal blue NASA flight suit adorned with official insignia: the iconic round NASA patch on her right chest, a rectangular blue nametag reading "JESSICA WATKINS" with the astronaut symbol on her left chest, and an American flag patch on her upper left arm. This balanced, professional composition honors her historic milestone as the first Black woman to serve on a long-duration International Space Station mission and command an orbital spaceflight.

"The survey has identified multiple different ways that psychologists can potentially give that support & help people with ME/CFS" Extract from British Psychological Society ME/CFS Guidelines (September 2026 Update) meassociation.org.uk/wp-content/u... #MEcfs #PwME #CFS #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis
Welcome to the third British Psychological Society ME/CFS Guidelines update. We have been carrying out further analysis of the responses to our survey about what people with ME/CFS want psychologists to know to support both the guidelines and a planned research paper. Participants have said very clearly that the guidelines must recognise ME/CFS is a biological illness that cannot be cured by psychological methods. The role of psychology is support. The survey has identified multiple different ways that psychologists can potentially give that support and help people with ME/CFS:
•
Build trust: by believing people, listening compassionately, respecting lived expertise and taking limits seriously.
•
Support life with ME/CFS: including grief, identity change, loss of autonomy, loneliness, uncertainty, hope and changed relationships.
•
Support pacing: by helping people recognise limits, plan around exertion and reduce guilt, shame, self-blame or pressure to push through.
•
Adapt care: so psychological support is accessible, paced, flexible and appropriate for the person’s severity and energy limits.
•
Support mental health safely: by adapting work on anxiety, depression, trauma or other difficulties so ME/CFS symptoms are not misinterpreted.
•
Work with wider systems: including families, carers, schools, employers, healthcare, benefits, social care and voluntary-sector support to help support and educate others.
•
Reduce harm: challenge psychologization, coercion and patient blaming. Avoid minimising comments and inappropriate pressure to increase activity.
-
Help process trauma: disbelief, dismissal, psychologisation, delayed diagnosis, medical gaslighting, coercion and previous harmful treatment can impact mental health.
-
Signposting to resources: help with practical problem solving and system navigation, including benefits, social care, mobility aids, workplace adjustments, education, housing and finances where appropriate.
