PSA that Sleater-Kinney made their entire Sub Pop catalogue name-your-price yesterday and it's still in effect as of now.
All of this is essential - if you need a starting point then Dig Me Out, my favorite is The Woods, you really cannot go wrong.

Johns Hopkins is doing a long-COVID survey and apparently is having trouble finding controls -- people who haven't had COVID. If this is you, consider giving them some clicks.

I donated! Scarleteen is an invaluable resource
Friends, I am going to keep harassing you to donate to Scarleteen! Even a tiny monthly donation is super-helpful (monthly donations help orgs manage their budgets much better than random lump sums) and this is a really important resource.

The pandemic is not over, and public health requirements don't magically disappear simply because it would be politically more expedient.
