If you don’t think you know anyone with long covid what you really mean is that people are uncomfortable sharing their health status with you or there are people who have dropped out of your life (due to illness) that you haven’t checked up on.

I'm in a group chat with about a dozen former coworkers and I texted if any would be work references while I'm job hunting, to have backups for the three I already had, and 8 of them immediately said yes.

One of them texted that I need to come back because I was irreplaceable.

Who were those folks starting up a PNW newsroom on substack?

...lol
Substack, as expected, escalates toward hyper-disinfo.
Remember, folks: The tech bros tearing down our country are the major forces behind this monstrosity.
Choose your future wisely.

The reason we live under fascism is because too many people don't stop for a single solitary moment of their lives to think "Do I care about the health and well being of other human beings?"

My comment stands even if this lady is doing a bit.
She needs to go to jail.

I'm not reposting the images, but my take on RFK is those jeans are just part of him.

They're under his suit pants when he's in a suit.

He can't actually remove them.

That's why he keeps jumping into water with them on, that's how they stay clean.

I'm more concerned about technofascists destroying our planet, and trying to destroy our way of life, than I am about whether or not claude can make me a home budget or analyze data at my job.
I think this is directionally correct and honestly I'm less concerned about what it means for the left's take on AI than I am for the left's ability to metabolize new information and changing circumstances generally www.transformernews.ai/p/the-left-i...
The left is missing out on AI
As a movement, it has largely refused to engage seriously with AI, ceding debate about a threat and opportunity to the right

If you're still giving the nytimes money for their articles, games, or recipes you are putting money into the pockets of the fascism propaganda machine.
Have you ever once seen the New York Times quote Trump like this?

Housing prices are about to drop in major US cities!!

It'll be because the air is unbreathable, you can't see the skyline in the smog, and there's acid rain there again, but cheap housing y'all!!
“The U.S. no longer has emission standards of any meaning,” said Margo T. Oge, who served as the E.P.A.’s top vehicle emissions regulator under three presidents and has since advised both automakers and environmental groups…

“Nothing. Zero,” she added. “Not many countries have zero.”

Floaty Boaty Bear
Franzi Schimmer captured this Grizzly bear in Brooks Falls, Alaska just floating along, tippy-tapping down the river, browsing the salmon.

Prior to hibernation, up to 40% of a bear's body mass is fat, which is less dense than water (~0.9 g/cm^2), so the murder-monster is also a floaty-boaty.

This thread is just the best, and I think everyone reading wants to hear the Seven Nation Army/Sweet Dreams mashup right??

The kids are okay.
Let me tell you a tale of how completely the normies have been mobilized. My 14 year-old niece has done School of Rock for the past 5 years; last summer she was part of their touring band, and the kids loved playing together so much that they decided to keep doing it. (1/?)

Drop an album that was important to you when you were 19.

I'm not ashamed of being an angsty teen girl because this is one of the best albums on the planet to be an angsty teen girl to.

Celebrate love today, every kind of love.

Love of friends, yourself, pets both here and gone, your favorite pair of glasses and your least favorite coffee mug, your favorite song or movie.

I am one of the least romantic people you'll ever meet and I'm crying like a baby CLICK THE FULL VIDEO.
Everyone in the world comes to get married at the NYC Marriage Bureau. Last week, the Mayor stopped by to officiate a few of those ceremonies. 
 
Thank you to all the couples who shared their joy with us. Happy Valentine's Day, New York.

@katmabu.bsky.social 's mic holder being a physical visible reminder of how fucked up voting districts are is absolutely amazing.
One person at a time. One tea stop at a time. One vote at a time.

Walks like this not only remind us what we’re fighting for but also how we can represent our communities better.

We’ll be on Devon again today! Hope to see you there 🧡
