1. Looks like we're into #flu season, folks. A 🧵
#CDC reports that for the week ending 12/6, 3.2% of medical visits were for flu-like illnesses. The baseline — ie the point where flu season is considered to have started — is 3.1%.
This timing is pretty normal, coming after the mixing at Thanksgiving

10 mg Zyrtec, 20mg Pepcid, every 12 hrs

this is double the box dose but safe for a week unless you’ve got other med interactions

keeps the virus from binding to H1/H2 receptors, lowers viral load

Also, if you go back to getting flattened by the COVID vax: 50mg diphenhydramine 15 minutes before or 20mg cetirizine/loratidine or 360mg fexofenadine 2-3 hours before the shot reduces the terrible side effects for most people and doesn't fuck with the vaccine efficacy!

I've seen some posts suggesting day drinking to deal with today's news, and I want to offer some suggestions for how to get through today if you don't want to drink, or use drugs. I'm going to suggest these things as someone who hasn't drank or taken drugs in over 9 years. I hope they help.

just that period reminder that content posted to Bluesky is public to *anybody*. if you don't want to see it used in a court of law, don't post it here.

and DMs here are not E2EE, they can be subpoened. a great use for bsky DMs is to share secure comms and move the conversation there.

Yes! 50mg diphenhydramine (Benadryl) 15 minutes before a COVID vaccine or 20mg cetirizine 2-3 hours before will leave you feeling SIGNIFICANTLY less like death after! *And* there's a ton of evidence that taking H1+H2 antihistamines in significant enough doses reduces risk of catching COVID.

When you start digging into the vast dark money networks on the right, it becomes clear that this is already war.

The violence is just mostly carried out via budget line items.

But they’ve been waging a war on America for decades. They’ve been playing the long game. And our side? Been sleeping.

An extraordinary separate dissent from Justice Jackson accuses the majority of trying to pass off its dirty work under the cover of the shadow docket and explicitly invokes Korematsu, the Japanese internment case. Wow. www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

There is this thing about the indoctrination of law school, particularly in DC, and even if you’ve always been radical and you chose electives like CRT and Women and the Law and Race and Criminal Justice and you worked domestic violence clinics as a 3L and you went on to do international human rts.

It boggles the mind of that the GOP said they were going to do all of this. They literally put it in a manual, and Michelle, Hillary, Kamala, AOC, Warren, Crockett, and a host of other women, Black folks & others warned that this is what they would do & yet people *still* voted for him. Senseless.

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.

We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.

They own what happens next.
