Academic institutions in the US need to seriously consider how they will support and protect their minority faculty during this time. The conditions we face are already hostile for most - targeted attacks and added barriers to advancement will push many to simply walk away.

I know this sounds weak, I know it.

But kindness is one of the few things we carry that can make a difference for each other.

We can’t undo all this hate, but we can still make life a little easier for others.

Instagram's new update is horrendous. Too many ads, so many audios are gone. When trying to post a carousel it just crops everything randomly. It's just exhausting. This app used to be something good before Meto took over

Future pandemics (e.g. bird flu) pose novel risks:

1. deforestation increases exposure to new viruses
2. global networks enable rapid spread
3. unprecedented global population provides more hosts for viral evolution
4. simultaneous pandemics (covid's not over) may overwhelm research/healthcare

It's been over 2 years since I contracted SARS-Cov-2, and I have recurring brain fog every year. The first few months after the infection, I remember being so cognitively impaired. We definitely need more awareness and research done on the long term affects.
The silence around Long Covid is deafening because speaking up requires

- Fighting waves of misinformation to understand your condition
- Accepting an incurable illness as your new reality
- Risking relationships, income & facing stigma, all for little hope of support.

Most simply suffer quietly.

What Covid tried to teach us — and why it will matter in the next pandemic
Five years after the start of Covid, we appear to be trying to teach ourselves the lessons of the pandemic the hard way.

Why is medical anthropology important? As a medical anthropologist Dr. Cobb was a leading voice in understanding the intersections of culture, health, illness, and segregation.

Anthropologists explain why trust rather than facts will convince people to take vaccines
Vaccine “hesitancy” is far more complex than being anti-vax. Understanding the reasons for people’s hesitancy is key.

Thought of the day: In order to be a good friend, good partner, good parent to your future children, should we not try to live out our calling as much as possible? Instead of extending our identities to others who have their own self to actualise
