Not acknowledging World AIDS Day and engaging in COVID revisionism are straight from the eugenics playbook. One of the most effective ways of making people invisible is by erasing their history.

It feels really performative at this point, but a reminder that it’s National Day of Mourning for Native folks

Relatedly, thousands of Native women are still disappearing and agencies are doing fuck all about it

No single person, especially someone with zero expertise, should be able to just change the CDC website on a whim. The fact that federal health and science pages are no longer trustable is a catastrophe for public health and democracy.

i can't bring myself to celebrate trans awareness. i feel so defeated. awareness without protection, and respect feels dangerous right now. but i'll still wave my little flag in my heart. 🏳️‍⚧️

You can tell the adults I ran a D&D game for last night do not work in child-adjacent professions (or have children of their own) because nobody lunged across the table to throttle me when I described a small detachment up ahead of "6 or 7 enemies."

Happy There Is A Circulatory System Walking Through The Kitchen Day to all who celebrate.
It's an artistic representation of a circulatory system walking through a kitchen, as drawn by Dave Gibbons and written about by Alan Moore. It happens a lot 'round here.

Researchers looked at 1.8M Americans. (Only ~13% got the 2024–25 COVID shot)

🔸Protection against infection was ~45% at 4 weeks, ~36% at 10 weeks, and ~17% at 20 weeks

🔸Protection against ER visits was 45% → 43% → 39%

🔸Strongest was against hospitalisation/death: 57% → 50% → 34%

A social media news card preview from The Washington Post. The headline reads: “How long does covid booster protection last? A new study offers answers.” The article is credited to Leana S. Wen and shows it was posted 35 minutes ago. The image above the headline shows a close-up of a gloved healthcare worker’s hands administering a vaccine injection into a person’s upper arm. The syringe and safety cap are clearly visible, and the scene suggests a clinical or vaccination setting.

Don't forget that Zohran Mamdani spent his entire campaign standing proudly beside the trans community. He went to trans rights rallies just to show support. He proudly waved trans rights flags without hesitation. He refused to back down in support of trans rights. That makes me happy.
