COVID is not over. Masking is not unreasonable. People are still being disabled and killed by COVID every single day. No more people need to have their lives destroyed by this virus. We can stop, we must stop it.
Today, one month after my first positive covid test, I had to come home from the film festival after only one movie because I was so tired. This week I feel like I'm walking uphill on no sleep, despite getting a full 8-10 every night.
Basically fuck you if you don't wear a mask in a crowded space.

My physical fitness regime consists mainly of balancing on one foot as I use my knee to open a door while holding a plate with breakfast in one hand and a nearly-full coffee mug in the other

free fun decor idea for sonogram technicians: framed Meet The Beatles LP but instead of pictures of the Beatles it's four fetuses and it says Meet The Featals. or maybe three fetuses and you keep Ringo. probably best to have a steady hand back there on the drums

Now is the worst of the pandemic because we are doing none of those things and just allowing reinfection after reinfection.
Remember how just a few years ago during the worst of the pandemic when we saw how the govt can actually do big things and saw that our collective health & well-being are intertwined, and then corporations got mad that they lost a modicum of power and helped fund a backlash of amnesia and fascism?

one function of capitalism is to funnel these types into positions of power, because if competent & kind people get into power they start taking from the rich and giving to the poor. capitalist leaders must be either evil or ignorant or both, only by mistake does anyone else get near power
What if we could have leaders who aren't either evil monsters or spineless weenies

Briefly considered posting something political and topical but then I got the idea for ‘Moon Rustlers’, a series of novellas in which a lone cowboy named Colton McKittrick melts down silver bullets into gauntlets so he can punch werewolves to death.

The Uncanny Valley also applies to art that is almost done, so all you can focus on are its flaws, and it's horrifying

Didn't see any aurora, didn't see any meteors. But staring at the night sky while listening to Bear McCreary's "Violence and Variations" is still time well spent. youtu.be/VYHwJIyq7Mg

I had the same reaction watching The Amazing Spider-man 2 as I did The Mothman Prophecies: "Oh shit, a bridge. It's been a while and I don't remember the details, but I know something bad happens with a bridge."

Today is my birthday. I am now the same age that Christ was when He released His second homemade alt-rock album. You can listen and buy it now on bandcamp, or it'll be on your artist exploitation service of choice within the next few hours!

So I try not to give too many gory details about life with long covid, but I also think it’s important to give a clear picture of what can happen to anyone.
Over the last yearish, I’ve become allergic to more than 70 foods. Today I lost soy. I’m not how long I can keep eating at all.

COVID was the ruling classes experiment to see if people would give up on the social contract to prioritize themselves, once they saw people were willing to let disabled, elderly and poor people die for their own convenience, they have slowly taken the mask fully off day by day and now we are here.
