I appreciate the continuing research. I do. But we already knew this when I had to figure out my condition after my first and only infection in 2022.
Y'all owe Anthony J. Leonardi an apology.

SARS-CoV-2 infection may induce long-term immune dysregulation; however, its contribution to the development of autoimmune disease remains disputed.

This isn't engagement. It's surveillance.
These journos should block ICE immediately. WaPo and NYT are already compromised.

Gavin Newsom has never had a homeless, a working unhoused, or an affordable housing advocate on his podcast despite governing California.
So yeah I think it’s weird that he’s entertained & platformed multiple fascists while grinning, nodding & relenting to their easily defeatable talking points.

I love when you tell people how terrible Newsom is, they're always like, "Well, it's nice to have ideals, but if it comes down to him or the Nazi in the general, *I* am going to vote for him"

Anybody in Oakland who wants to get involved with a school or corner patrol, DM me and I'll connect you.
Friends—I need you to connect to your rapid response in your city. Your ICE watch. If you don’t have one, start one. I’m watching Minneapolis and we need to be prepared for what comes next. Know the activists in our neighborhoods. If you don’t know your rights now is the time to learn. Have a plan.

I know people on Bsky know this but I hope it filters out: The feds are OCCUPYING the Twin Cities. This is a blockade, a siege. They are shutting down economic and civic activity. They are conducting "papers please" stops. They are criminalizing being a bystander/witness.

The other woman in this waiting room has been playing video after video on her phone without headphones for more than an hour.
At first, I was annoyed, but now just looking at her makes my neck sore.

ICE agents only receive 300 hours of training before they’re turned loose on an unsuspecting public. Cops, get 1200 hours. Hairdressers, on the other hand, need 2400 hours. Make of that what you will.

Me on Saturday after 5 hours with three boys (9, 9, and 10): I must rethink this plan.

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."
The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"
"Learned what?" she asks
Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.
I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.
