This is exactly what happens when a novel seasonal influenza strain meets a population with Covid-induced immune dysregulation; it's not 'like Covid again', it's the ongoing and continuous effects of Covid.

“the USPS must turn a profit” makes me want to set things on fire

they put a clause in the fucking constitution about postal service, that’s how important it is

nothing in there about “only if you can make money on it”
🚨SCOOP: Amazon is preparing to sever ties with USPS and expand its shipping network as a true coast-to-coast rival.

It could cost USPS more than *$6 billion* a year in lost revenue, and lead Amazon to dominate yet another facet of the economy.

USPS posted a *$9 billion* loss in 2025.

All of the companies that make the software I use are increasing their prices, to account for an "investment" in AI.

I'm sat here imagining how my clients would feel if I added 30% to each invoice, because I "really got into gambling".

HOMELESSNESS IS NOT A DRUG PROBLEM IT'S A HOUSING PROBLEM

I'm so sick of y'all in my mentions with this talking point, just stop.

PEOPLE CANNOT AFFORD RENT. Half of renters are paying over 30% of their income on rent, another quarter are paying over 50%!!!

People need homes they can afford!

Prison rape is wrong.

Jokes about prison rape are wrong.

Eliminating protections against prison rape is wrong.

If another country sentenced a criminal to be raped, we'd consider it a crime against humanity.

BUT

A large segment of Americans regard prison rape as a de facto part of the sentence.

You are not “less than” because you’re disabled.

You do not deserve to suffer, go hungry, be homeless or be denied healthcare.

You shouldn’t have to “prove” your worth to others.

Your disability is not a moral failing, and you do not need to justify it to anyone.

No one deserves to starve.

No one deserves to starve.

Most SNAP recipients work. They need SNAP because corporations refuse to pay a living wage.

The rest are disabled, elderly or unpaid caregivers.

People should be fed. Period.

FEW EASY AND IMMEDIATE COUNTERMEASURES????

Have these people never heard of N95s? Corsi-Rosenthal Boxes? HEPA filters? HVAC? ASHRAE 241? Upper room UV?

Oh, yeah: they're physicians. Useless for public health.

Get them the fuck out of the way and let engineers who KNOW HOW TO DO THIS do their JOB!

Ran into that insidious poverty struggle wherein you beg for help for one (1) specific struggle, and for some reason that assistance is assumed to be permanent, inexhaustible.

I was given $50 for groceries in November.
It bought groceries.
That's it.

Anyone here with political aspirations, please take note. We live in an era, policy-wise where there is such a dearth of humanity that if you simply allow basic fundamental baby-brained levels of human decency to guide your policy it’s like 99% certain you’ll be goddamn Superman to the average voter
NEW: Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani said Thursday he will not continue sweeps of homeless encampments — which city data shows have not yielded any permanent or supportive-housing referrals in more than a year.

I was diagnosed with COPD two years into my long covid journey.

Both the pulmonologist and other docs have said, “ArE YoU SuRe YoU’vE NeVer SmOkED?”

But I keep seeing all these damn papers on lung inflammation and COPD post covid.

Like are ya’all not keeping up with the literature? 🤨

Everyone around me irl keep dropping in the fact that they use AI in every day life and work and it makes me feel like I’m going crazy especially when I push back and ask if it’s worth the consequences and the response is always, in the end, no 🫠 And yet this is just the average person now!

It was an honor to have so many conversations w Leslie Lee on his podcast & mine. His being out about his LC status on every platform was extremely brave. There’s a social cost to being out about chronic illness & “salting the vibe”. Whether talking TV or pandemic, he was incisive & a truth teller

I'm begging any artists still using Twitter claiming it's integral to their work to just leave. It's been revealed the site works off a made up "credit score" from hell and punishes you for posting like a normal human being.

Abandon Twitter for good. It's time. It's been time.

it is MIRACULOUS that we got rid of lead paint and asbestos when we did. if we had tried that today, there would be people whining about how we're restricting their rights.
