A few thoughts about today's protests:
1) The April 5 Hands Off day of action clearly ranks as one of the very largest mobilizations in U.S. history, by two different measures:
-- total national turnout (~ 3 million)
-- number of local protests (~ 1400)

The Treasury Department right now. People are turning out against Musk and DOGE staging a takeover of the Treasury’s payment system. This crowd is big. The whole block is packed. “Lock him up,” everyone yells.

It’s almost always an attempted gotcha when someone says “some people can’t mask”
The thing is - that’s exactly why everyone who CAN mask, should mask.
If we’re all masking then the world is safer for the people who genuinely can’t.
It’s not a gotcha - it reinforces our point

This is a great thread for anyone who might be asking in earnest!
When I've encountered this question it usually comes in tandem with "but some people CAN'T mask" as if that's a gotcha, rather than a great reason for everyone to wear one who can.

Mounting research shows that COVID-19 leaves its mark on the brain, including significant drops in IQ scores
Two new high-profile studies add to the increasingly worrisome picture of how even mild cases of COVID-19 can have detrimental effects on brain health.

"A UN special committee has found that Israel’s tactics of starvation and mass civilian slaughter in Gaza are 'consistent with genocide,' in one of the strongest worded reports by a UN group yet on the Israeli siege."

These are the people we should all be fighting for. If you aren’t you’re doing it wrong.
There are gonna be disabled folks who can't contribute anything to The Cause. They have no money, no energy, no physical ability, no time. They will need to receive and will never be able to give back. You gotta save them, too. Especially them.
Please don't leave disabled people behind in your revolution. Please do not see us as sacrifices for the greater good, or dead weight. Please see our lives as worth saving, too.

For all of the Long COVID sufferers with CFS and mitochondrial/ATP dysfunction: I wish there was a way to make COVID-19 denialists and anti-maskers go through the daily experience of waking up feeling the same as exhaustion as when you went to bed nine hours previously.

Telehealth is the only way I can see doctors safely these days.

Please call/contact your members of Congress and ask them to protect telehealth.

This telehealth disaster is now 6 weeks away from hitting us. PLEASE call your Members of Congress. This article pushes for HR 7623, but I've seen elsewhere that HR 8261 has a better shot, b/c it made it out of a committee. (The other bills are S 2016 & HR 4189.)
