When they ask you
(and they will ask you)
if you are tired
of wearing a mask all the time,
you can tell them yes
or you can tell them no,
but be sure to tell them
that what you are really tired of
is everyone you know
getting sick all the time.

I keep hearing people say
that it seems
like Covid is back,
and I know
that it seems
like that is the case
but the truth is
it never really left.

A wonderful, resonant essay from @thesicktimes.org about how we can better listen to anyone going through something catastrophic. "Avoiding the topic feels absurd — like I’m standing in quicksand, and we’re chitchatting over glasses of lemonade as I slowly sink." thesicktimes.org/2025/11/28/y...
You know someone with Long COVID. They need you to ask about it genuinely. - The Sick Times
If community-building is a bulwark against autocracy, then asking after one another might be a good place to start.

The elephant in the room is that any effective defence against COVID and other airborne pathogens will end the careers of today's public health and IPC leaders - their only hope to beat charges of negligence is the lie that it was never possible to do better.

They cannot afford a success.

Kestrels are such handsome birds. Lots out and about today, their plumage even more striking than usual. This shot captures the colors and patterns well.

The next pandemic is highly likely to be airborne. We need clarity on whether the government is prepared.

Are medical supplies up to date? And what action is being taken on ventilation and air filtration to keep public spaces safe?

Sometimes a department somewhere has the #BoldPolitics to get the messaging right and to put it out there. Well done whoever that is in NYC! It's a tough climate.
Excellent public health messaging from New York City!!

Be the happy peace sign waving emoji instead of the sick and sniffling emoji.

How can you do that?

Wear a mask! Ideally a respirator like an N95.

It’ll help keep you and your community safe.

Eine maskentragende Freundin meines Sohnes hat erzählt, dass sie die ganze Zeit die Maske gegenüber ihren Schwurbler-Eltern immer durchsetzten musste und sich auch heimlich hat impfen lassen müssen.
So ganz allein ohne Rückendeckung. Ich musste auch gleich an Violet Affleck denken. 😥

When the public health infrastructure doesn’t support our needs, we organize to share lifesaving information and harm reduction supplies. When they try to silence us, we keep speaking up. When doctors ignore or gaslight us, we share resources & organize to fight for the care that we need.
