a non-inclusive list of aspects of contemporary american culture that are fascist-associated, in my estimation:
- the "natural" makeup look
- heroin chic being back
- meat-forward diets, sometimes keto
- women being obsessed with their cycles and getting off bc
- much of so-called wellness culture

Reminders, as public health officials warn of a very bad flu season:
🧵
* Washing hands is not a strategy for a respiratory virus. N95s, ventilation, air filtration -- especially in hospitals.
* We should have been cleaning indoor air with the same effort we put into cleaning drinking water.

Potential broad-spectrum antiviral. Shows efficacy against some of the worst shit. Utterly amazing news.
We're close to the world's first-ever broad-spectrum antiviral. In a breakthrough, researchers at the City University of New York have identified a promising path to the development of an antiviral that could be used to fight a wide range of deadly viruses, including future pandemic threats.

I don’t know if anyone else notices or cares, but when I see a presentation in which the speaker uses obviously generated-AI images to illustrate their slides, it makes me immediately less confident in whatever other content they’re presenting.

TRUMP [after spending 5 minutes with Zohran]: surplus value, it’s a very wonderful thing, very wonderful, and they’re stealing it. Can you believe that?

It's odd having a student with the same disability as me.
I have a student with EDS. They're a senior, and I had them as a freshman too. I've seen their progression, I've seen how they ask for more extensions than they used to, miss class more often. 1/6

I’m heartsick to hear that the incomparable Alice Wong has passed. Her loss will be felt keenly, by many, and for a long time. She is a force, a generous leader and storyteller, and an oracle for disabled futures. Much love to Alice and to all our crip kin and comrades. ❤️🩹

The NYC Mayoral Election proved that Dems need to not fight the Rose Wave (democratic socialists).
Let the regressive establishment Dems be primaried aggressively, or accept repeated loss to reactionary Republicans. 1/5

Andrew Cuomo is absolutely crushing with the fascist endorsements.

But don’t worry, he says he’s totally the guy who will stand up to this administration.

the thing about playing the imperial march behind the goons (🧊 et al) is those types lack media literacy. a lot of the time these guys *like* the villains because, fundamentally, they align themselves with power only. they thinks it's cool.
