What if we wore respirators in healthcare to prevent infections?

"Are you going to mask forever?" 🤡
We use water filters all the time. Masks are just air filters. Not sure why people don't get this. Unless you enjoy inhaling others' ejecta?

after a surgery I had a few years ago, the Dr said "you probably feel like you've been hit by a truck" and I interrupted to correct "I've been hit by a truck, that was worse. This was just an organ"

the leap from disappearing the undocumented to disappearing visa holders to disappearing green card holders to disappearing naturalized citizens to disappearing natural born citizens is no leap at all, but a series of tiny steps

worth noting how many physicians not only refuse to wear an N95 to protect their patients from preventable illness, but become angry & abusive when asked for this basic infection control
Historically, medical doctors are among the first groups in society to embrace fascism when it appears. In the US, it is already here.

Health workers face a stark choice: become collaborators or resisters

I really really need you guys to make a conscious rejection of generative AI tools part of your ongoing political resistance.
Don't use ChatGPT. Turn off Gemini. Don't read the AI results forced upon you at the top of Google search. Don't use AI art generators or support anyone who does. Please.

Oh please please i am begging, don't use generative AI for any reason if you can avoid it.
It's being marketed as a quick time-saver, but it's messy, inaccurate, it is putting entire industries of people out of work, and the environmental impacts (energy and water usage) are huge and debilitating.

We get to say "no." Even if it's awkward. Even if we think we should soften it with a "maybe." (If it's a "no," we're not doing anyone any favors by calling it a "maybe.")
"No" is not a dirty word. Neither are "not anymore," "not ever again," or "I changed my mind."
