Living with LC is really tough and also very hard to explain to people who haven’t experienced it.

In the next essay in our Color of Long COVID series, supported by the Disability Visibility Project, Christina Igaraividez writes about making a new friend with #LongCOVID, and how their connection helped build up each other’s confidence and hope. bit.ly/4bW3mhf
An image of the essay’s author, Christina, standing in front of a window and holding a cell phone. Around the image, there’s a colorful yellow and pink border, emojis, and text bubbles. The text reads, “The Sick Times. A serendipitous friendship taught me my greatest lesson in living with Long COVID: How to just be. By Christina Igaraividez.” Black text in a salmon speech bubble on a teal background reads, "It’s difficult for me to tell people about Long COVID because it’s impossible for them to understand how someone who looks so “normal” can be so sick." - Christina Igaraividez, storytelling instructor, writer, and performer

At first I thought this was from the student health clinic and was honestly impressed that they did a March Madness themed ad for vasectomy aimed at a bunch of 19 year-olds

For folks who don’t know, ethnic studies programs like African American/Africana Studies, Asian American Studies, Chicano Studies and the like come directly from civil right era campus activism. Attempts to disempower such programs should be framed as attacks on civil rights same as much else rn.

A man slated for deportation has captured conditions inside the Krome Detention Center in Florida. He says some people have been confined like this for up to 30 days.

At least three men have died at Krome in the past five months.

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

How can reframing pandemics as inevitable change the way we prepare for them? @maxlevy.bsky.social joins @hashtagjames.bsky.social, @betsyladyzhets.bsky.social, and @mileswgriffis.bsky.social to talk about it on this week's Still Here. Also: The latest #LongCOVID trends and research. bit.ly/42Z2TIy
ID: A black background with white text and lavender accents features an illustration of a white Caladrius wearing yellow headphones. The text reads, “When executed well, a good pandemic preparedness plan looks a lot like disease prevention. Taking these things into consideration can prevent a situation from going from bad to worse. - Max Levy, Still Here: A Podcast from The Sick Times.”
