An enduring idiocy baked into anti-vax propaganda is that most infectious disease is the acute phase, you get over it and then all good. That’s very often not how it works! Long COVID for ex isn’t an outlier. Many pathogens cause organ damage or mess w DNA or linger in certain types of cells.

Maybe, and I'm spitballing here, women don't like waiting in hospital parking lots until they are near death to have life-saving abortions. Maybe they enjoy having a bank account and jobs and voting rights. Maybe they don't want a court judge to decide if they deserve a divorce. Wow, what a mystery.

Epstein was a monster, but monsters like him don’t operate alone.
They thrive inside networks built and protected by other powerful people.
And his death? There are gaps: missing footage, sleeping guards, broken cameras, zero transparency.
Something happened in that cell - probably not a suicide.

My social media is wall-to-wall love for the incomparable Alice Wong, and I need more words. What captures sadness and/also affection for a community that knows what's been lost?
Alice could not eat food for years.
And yet at Christmas she would bake cookies and mail them to me—such was her desire to provide care for the people she loved.
