It was reprehensible when people mocked condom usage at the height of the AIDS pandemic.
It is just as depraved to mock those wearing masks to reduce the spread of airborne viruses today.
Whenever someone takes any kind of step to protect public health, they should be applauded, not mocked.

Pay close attention to who is saying that 14 year-olds *can* consent to sex with trump and other damp billionaires but *can’t* consent to gender affirming care provided in close and collaborative partnership with their doctor.

One of the saddest things is when children have cancer, immune deficiency or need bone marrow or organ transplants.
And to add insult to injury, they’re unable to receive vaccines.
But YOU can do your part to help protect them by immunizing yourself & your family.

Your Labor Day reminder that if the minimum wage increased at the rate of inflation & productivity since 1960 it'd be $28 today—not $7.25. Meaning—billionaires & corps have stolen at least $21/hour from working Americans for 60 years.
We don't suffer a lack of resources—but from an excess of greed.

Masked raids are tools of fear, not freedom. Despite what this administration wants you to believe, they are not about “safety.” They are about letting ICE agents hide from accountability while carrying out inhumane acts.

Beautiful green, sadly the recipe for the Egyptian blue lost to history but scientists hoping to recreate (see attached post below this one.)

Wow, this 3,400 year-old ancient Egyptian paint box still contains original pigments!
Looks similar to a modern-day set!
An inscription tells us it belonged to Amenemope, Vizier during the reign of Amenhotep II.

![Cleveland Museum photo showing an ancient Egyptian paint box carved from boxwood with five oval wells containing original paint pigments. From top to bottom the preserved cake pigments are red (red ochre), blue (Egyptian blue), green (a mixture of Egyptian blue, yellow ochre, and orpiment) and two of black (carbon black, from charcoal). Dimensions 2.2 cm x 21 cm x 3.6 cm.
On the front of the box there’s an inscription inlaid in Egyptian blue with the name Amenemope who was Vizier during the reign of Amenhotep II, Dynasty 18. It translates as ‘The overseer of the city and vizier Amenemope. Master of secrets of the west bank [of Thebes]’. A red inscription on the back reads ‘Amen-Ra, Lord of the Thrones of the Two Lands’. Dated c. 1427-1401 BC.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:j56ydp325adovobhwpkzc6sp/bafkreidtz22s6cb7oltnetxyjuy7noamae7b6uvybuihgjltazydpivwfe@jpeg)

It is well known that mosquitoes are the world's deadliest animal.
As promised, in light of the WaPo report of Everglades camp detainees being swarmed by mosquitoes in the shower and unable to sleep at night due to being bitten, I want to briefly address concentration camp history and mosquitoes. I won't be comprehensive but will give a few examples. [1/17]

Gender affirming healthcare saves lives.
the argument that it's not life saving is literally that trans people, as an entire unit, cannot be trusted to report whether transitioning improved their quality of life
transition care for trans people is life saving healthcare. the only regret with my transition is that i didn’t start when i was younger. fuck everyone who is cheering on the destruction legal trans healthcare, and fuck those indifferent to it

Wearing a mask in public also shows support and love for those who depend on the safety provided by masking.
Masks are under serious threat at being banned widely due to politicization. This would be a public health disaster. If you are only wearing a mask at protests, please consider also wearing them elsewhere. The more people mask, the more we normalize masks and protect them against bans.
