Just a human who wishes we can create a world where people aren’t exploited and divided by the wealthy, where we take care of each other & the planet, & value diversity. Might actually be from Saturn. Shhh🤫

Overhead today, “My son’s entire hockey team is sick after tournament on the weekend. All the coaches too, and most of the parents.”
While not nice to contemplate, covid is still infecting people, damaging our immune systems and triggering disability.

COVID-19 is “Airborne AIDS”: provocative oversimplification, emerging science, or something in between?
COVID-19 caused by SARS-CoV-2 is often compared to other pandemics for its societal
and global health impact, with some commentators drawing parallels to HIV/AIDS due
to the immune dysfunction caused ...

It’s not unreasonable to be afraid of things that can disable or kill you. It’s unreasonable to pretend they don’t exist and constantly put yourself and those you love in harm’s way because you want to be comfortable. Basic mitigations like masking and filtering the air can protect you from #covid.
Joshua Roman, 41, is an American cellist who once practiced 10hrs a day and toured the world performing standard and original works. After getting COVID in 2021, he developed Long COVID with severe brain fog and fatigue, becoming too weak to play his instrument or even climb stairs

I took a lot of heat for this speech. Watch and tell me if I was wrong.
