#SDFC 3-2 #LAFC #MLS Right on, guys.

If you believe that only the “fit” should survive and the rest are excusable deaths, that’s eugenics. Every life is important. Every disabled person is worthy of life. Disability is part of nature. If you live long enough, you will become disabled. We’re all vulnerable and all valuable.

Isn't this the same thing we've all been bitching at #Elon about re: #X (and actually whoever owned X before him)?

Disabled people are the canaries in the coal mine. Anything that will impact a non disabled person will hit us harder & faster. Climate change, pandemics, supply chain issues, drug shortages… we have to have contingencies just to stay alive. Include us in emergency preparedness & everyone benefits

🇨🇦 Cannot understate how important it is to know that the practice of solidarity with disabled people is anti-fascist

When people say 'politics is too divisive now,' what they really mean is 'I was more comfortable when certain groups suffered quietly.'

There’s a disturbing trend in TV & movies right now. On hospital dramas or scenes in a healthcare setting, there’s less and less masking. On crime or legal shows? Criminals are wearing KN95s. They seem to be conditioning us to accept that masking = criminals. It’ll make mask bans easier to pass

This is such important legislation. It's a first of it's kind bill where there would be the right TO wear masks codified into law. It's really well written. We need this type of legislation! Please consider submitting being a witness, especially if you live in Illinois!!

I have never had Covid and I still mask up if going to crowded places, doctor's surgeries, pharmacies, supermarkets etc. The reasons are I do not lwant it and I would never want a vulnerable person to catch it from me. I hope you're ok.

One consequence of tolerating pseudoscience is that people die when its legitimatization becomes baked into our culture, health care systems, and institutions.

I'll say it again: US global dominance in higher ed, forged in the mid-late twentieth century, may well be coming to an end over the next four years.

A friend who gave up masking a few years ago just sent me a photo wearing one of the N95s I gifted to them. They read my Disabled Ginger article on respirators & public health, and masked back up. Keep advocating. Keep telling your friends & loved ones. You never know when you might reach someone

“ Young people living with debilitating symptoms caused by long Covid have described feeling abandoned and having to "battle" to access NHS support.” www.bbc.co.uk/news/a...

BREAKING: Louis DeJoy has just resigned as Postmaster General, effective immediately.

Back from wound care. Barely any nurse masking, but many patients masked. #COVIDisnotOVER #COVID19 #maskUP Good to see a minor uptick.

Politicizing masks has done untold amounts of harm. First mask mandates were dropped in healthcare, leading to countless preventable infections. Then the regular harassment of maskers began. Then Vance’s federal ban on mask mandates. Now it’s mask bans. They’re criminalizing a medical device

Shazzam!

💔 RIP George Foreman!!

It looks like #theimpulsivebuy got a facelift, but it also ditched a comment section?

Here’s the thing about mask bans and medical exemptions. Even if you believe the police won’t harass folks for masking (which is a position of privilege as they WILL harass marginalized people)… bans embolden anti-maskers & they become more aggressive. They put vulnerable people in danger:
