Neurodivergent? Queer? Joint pain? Go and read up on Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. Yes, even if you're not all that flexible these days. Even if it's not you, it's probably some of your friends.

Long COVID is a deadly disability, yes, but this also goes for every disabled (incl. chronically ill) person unable to prepare food for themselves, unable to go outside, fetch things for themselves, and must rely on an exploitative and unreliable online system
putting this here. Who’s bringing food to people with long covid who are too weak to cook or are you just condemning them for ordering delivery? Are you masking up to visit friends or making them sicker or just abandoning them? There is a precedence for community care in the face of gov abandonment!
For someone who brought meals to AIDS shut-ins who'd been erased by society, and who lost many friends in the 90's, this is simply astounding.
In a moral & ethical society, it would be free for anyone who wants it. We're the only industrialized nation without single payer/nationalized health care.

I want to get a big box of individually wrapped chocolates for my GP surgery, for generally going above and beyond while dealing with a hell of a lot of staff absence. What can I get from Sainsbury's online?

I commissioned this fabulous cat sofa from @craftycow.bsky.social, and Ninja has finally decided she likes it! Cathy had to keep it away from her beautiful model Banksy while she was making it, as Ninja Does Not Like Other Cats.
We hear her snoring away happily in the evenings, all cosy.

This is only related in a sideways manner, but: the story of any small slice of humanity is the story of humanity, just boiled down and distilled. So:
In 2020, we had a lot of conversations about harassment at SF/F conventions, and Isaac Asimov came up several times.

the Epstein files are really devastating because they remind me of how many girls and women miss out on professional opportunities, mentorship and careers because of how many powerful, rich and influential men only view girls and women — and interactions with them — through the lens of sex

so frustrating to see posts rightfully complaining about how federal agents mask to hide their identities, that then refer to covid—which, the gaiters they wear do nothing to contain—in the past tense. “oh, so they’ll mask now, but they wouldn’t during covid.”
“during covid” is right now, actually.

On 29th January 1996, "Threshold", the Star Trek: Voyager episode where Captain Janeway and Tom Paris turned into giant space newts and had babies first aired. Since it's #ThresholdDay we aim to answer a burning question: did Paris and Janeway fuck? If so, how did they fuck?

Has anyone had vertigo on blood pressure meds, specifically lisinopril? It started off as possibly a BPPV thing, so the doctor told me to do the Brandt-Daroff Exercises. The first try caused symptoms on the right, but nothing since then, and it hasn't stopped the vertigo episodes (thankfully mild).
