Trump is calling for the execution of his political opponents by hanging at the same time the Coast Guard announces the noose will no longer be classified as a hate symbol.

Really let that sink in.

Just a hostile and angry reminder that 50% of COVID cases are asymptomatic but still cause damage and can lead to long COVID, and also you are STILL CONTAGIOUS WHEN IT’S ASYMPTOMATIC.

“In a society like ours, more than 90% of the time we are indoors, be at home, office, school … so it is indoor air which is most important for our health

This is the problem right now. we must establish indoor air quality standards & mandate those standards”

Exactly this — vaccines help prevent hospitalisation and death, but they don’t stop infection or transmission. That’s why masking is still so important. 😷

Dr Oz: “I think we all agree that Covid has passed”.

No we do not agree!

Anyone who thinks Covid has passed has no business in charge of public health.

It’s still here. It’s still killing and disabling.

Get your booster if you can. Wear a mask (ideally an N95) and clean the air!

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.

Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.

The people who need help are not the problem.

It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

A friend recently told me that they didn’t think ICE would deploy tear gas in well to do neighborhoods with a high density of white people. I understood their thinking, but disagreed. Today, they gassed Lakeview. Nothing is off limits to these people.

People think if you’re disabled your family must support you

They don’t understand how many folks are on their own

How many have families who can’t support them for various reasons

Everyone deserves help

Having your basic needs met is not “frivolous”

Lacking family shouldn’t be a death sentence

BREAKING: Pope Leo XIV is set to effectively disband Opus Dei in the coming weeks.

This would be the most sweeping internal reform of his pontificate — and a dramatic continuation of Pope Francis’s legacy.
NEW: Pope Leo Set To Break Up Opus Dei
If Pope Leo does indeed approves a plan that effectively dissolves Opus Dei’s structure, it would be the most significant internal action of his short pontificate to date.

More than one! We continue to go through this with covid.
History gives us plenty of examples of disease used as a weapon. There are fewer cases of governments deliberately using disease against their own citizens. We are living (or dying) through one right now.

They're talking about killing leftist activists. They're talking about murdering people organizing in defense of immigrant communities, doing mutual aid work, and protesting their violence. They are talking about murdering people like me and my friends. We must do more than acknowledge it's fascism.
My gosh. After the US bombed multiple boats in the middle of the ocean, murdering people on grounds that they were allegedly "carrying drugs," the US Attorney General says "Just like we did with cartels, we're going to take the same approach, President Trump, with Antifa."
