I know I worry too much
I know I catastrophize too often
but seeing the headline
“1st human known
to be infected
with H5N5 strain of bird flu
dies,”
go largely ignored
as everyone discusses
their holiday plans
feels like the opening scene
in a movie
about a catastrophic outbreak.

One way I have found to mourn someone is to set up a monthly sustaining donation to a mutual aid effort they cared about. If you can join me in honoring Alice Wong, @sfdirewolf.bsky.social with a sustaining donation today, please do. Thank you Alice, and I will not let the bastards grind me down.

We can never thank Alice enough for fighting all the good fights and especially all the hard fights. We all learned so much from your brilliance, your courage, and your indefatigable leadership. We will never forget you.

If you want to help with the flooding you could maybe pick one person on this list (I’ll quote tweet the bottom of it in the next post so not everyone picks the first few families) and maybe champion them- you could message them if you like or just make a post/ send it in the group chat etc
I usually share a new Palestinian account every day but today I am going to do a thread of people I’ve already verified impacted by the recent flooding in Gaza. If you can help any of these families- many who lost everything again- please do. edition.cnn.com/2025/11/14/m...

So I try not to give too many gory details about life with long covid, but I also think it’s important to give a clear picture of what can happen to anyone.
Over the last yearish, I’ve become allergic to more than 70 foods. Today I lost soy. I’m not how long I can keep eating at all.

Wow. While we wait for the few remaining ballots to be counted, we feel like we have won this race. The recent drop put us nearly 1,400 votes ahead, just under the .5 percent threshold for a mandatory recount.

I hope your "anyone" includes Schumer. Why would someone with your high ranking in the Senate continue to allow Schumer to destroy what is left of the Dems? You need to take a stand and call for him to step down!
Donald Trump sent more money to bail out Argentina than it would have cost to extend the ACA tax credits for just 1 year.
I don't plan to let anyone forget it.

We all knew that. It’s you and your colleagues that seem to think otherwise, because CRs are the only way to force them to agree to funding. Instead, you’ve conceded the point after weeks of suffering which you rendered worthless.
We're debating on the government funding package right now and every single Republican voted against a Democratic amendment to pass a clean, one-year extension of the ACA tax credits.
Republicans just don't care about your health care.
