“Are you going to mask forever?” I don’t know… are you planning to spread Covid forever? Masking keeps people healthy. It’s necessary because as a society we’ve refused to do anything to reduce airborne spread. It protects the wearer and those around them. Easy choice!

We’re still in a global pandemic. The threat of Covid has not passed. We’re seeing an increase in bird flu, measles, TB & more. Public health has been dying a slow & painful death for years. We are on our own. The good news? Masks work for more than just Covid! My complete guide to respirators 👇🏼

Listen to disabled people. Learn from history. Understand that eugenicists (and fascists) want to rid the world of disabled people. When you make fun of us, when you make spaces less safe for us, you’re doing their dirty work for them

hi, are you doomscrolling? You should order your free Covid-19 tests while the federal program still exists: special.usps.com/testkits

I think most people are intuitively aware of this but something like the official White House account posting an “ASMR” video of shackled immigrants is not just cruel for its own sake, it’s intentional envelope-pushing to ramp up to desensitization over inhumane detention, camps, and deaths

Everyone deserves to have access to Covid tests. It’s bad enough that air filters and good respirators are financially out of reach for many… it’s appalling the Trump admin even considered destroying their stockpile of tests Keep up the pressure. We need better home testing, and it needs to be free

Whatever else emerges in time about the Delta crash in Canada, one thing is certain: the importance & amazing professionalism of flight attendants who safely evacuated the plane in a matter of seconds.

Another day, another attempted mask ban. This time in Maryland. Please, if you stopped masking we really need you to start again. It will reduce the number of Covid and flu cases, but it will also help normalize masks as a health tool. Disabled people need you to help fight these ugly laws:

Keith Haring died of AIDS aged 31 on 16 Feb 1990. One of his last works, Unfinished Painting, was deliberately incomplete, reflecting the devastating, unquantifiable loss to the arts due to AIDS. #LGBTplusHistoryMonth

With all the uncertainty around public health in the U.S., now is a great time to wear a good mask like an N95. They’re not just for Covid! A respirator can help you avoid flu, colds, measles, TB and more. It’s a powerful act of solidarity and resistance. It’s a sign of community care.

Decided to watch Black Panther tonight, and honestly, cancer can absolutely suck it. I started crying during the opening credits.

Black history is American history. Pure and simple. That history teaches us how systemic racism has shaped our economy and our society for generations. It also teaches us how to make real change for the future.

Make your calls. Go to your town halls. Ask your state and local officials what they are doing under state and local law. Rest. Hydrate. Make soup for the hungry. Don’t let people tell you that you’re doing it wrong. Not a sprint. Not a marathon. A relay. Find your team. Thank you.

On Feb. 14th I try always to give honor to one of the greatest contributors to American democracy in our nation’s history, Frederick Douglass. Born into slavery, Douglass never knew his actual birthdate, and adopted Feb. 14th as the day. His penetrating insights about our country inspire me daily.

This is what it’s all about. These kids see characters like #CaptainAmerica at the parks & it just feels so real (adults too). Starting today they can go watch Sam Wilson in a blockbuster film and then go meet him at the parks. I love it.

Dr. Oz has a horrible record on reproductive rights. How can we trust him to oversee health care for millions of women? Senator Duckworth and I are sounding the alarm. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Costs are up. Consumer sentiment is down. What’s Trump & GOP doing? Cutting funding for health care and food benefits like SNAP. Be for real.

Seriously, creative folks: Don't be afraid to let people know your stuff is out there for them, or worry that "now is not the time for that." People are stressed and freaked out and looking for the things that will give them a moment of rest and joy. It is EXACTLY the time for what we do. Tell them.

I hope everyone supports Anthony Mackie this weekend in going to see the new Captain America movie. It’s actually vital to support a Black Captain America during this time and can’t let it flop

I don’t want to link to this article as it’s irresponsible but I’m begging journalists to stop cosplaying “normal” at the expense of people’s health Don’t make a case for social drinking. Ask WHY folks aren’t drinking MCAS is a common comorbid with Long Covid & can cause severe alcohol intolerance
