i am sometimes too sick to post alt text
i'm a former "essential worker" dealing with long covid caught in 2020. if you feel like helping a broke bitch, https://paypal.me/gaaaaay

statstically speaking if you get me/cfs from long covid your doctor is not going to help, and yr actual medical advice will come from ppl like me who've spent the last 5 years reading medical papers.

you do not want someone who can no longer type the word "statidtically" to be your replacement doc.

does youtube have built-in A/B testing for video titles now? i know they have it for thumbnails but videos on my homepage keep changing both their titles and their thumbnails and it's so disorienting. it makes me feel like i can't trust my own eyes

being sick with moderate ME/CFS is significantly more exhausting than working a full time retail job ever was

Further I think it should be legally mandated for all indoor public spaces to HEPA filter the air at a high turnover rate, with an enforced legality similar to fire alarms and sprinkler systems. It must be mandatory

As I read this, I'm thinking about the man I interviewed who had to be hospitalized from the Covid he caught at the poultry processing plant and he got fired for it and he still has long Covid
During the height of the pandemic, Tyson used Palantir to predict Covid-19 infections among meatpacking workers down to a nearly exactly figure. But rather than using this data to increase worker protections, Tyson used it plan for labor shortages + plant closures

Maybe at some point we’ll talk about how the same politicians that ruined sex workers’ lives with SESTA-FOSTA and conflated consensual work with trafficking, had brazen dealings with a goddamn pedophile ring for decades. Or not

hi @lorenschmidt.bsky.social i think you should see this & associated thread
Holy shit, just learned about the typewriter art of Montserrat Alberich Escardívol, a Catalan typist. Using an extra wide typewriter and 180 color ribbons, she built up elaborate images from simple characters like 'm' and '.' and ';'. Here is her typewritten painting of the Cathedral of Barcelona.

being able to once-in-a-while very-small-portions eat wheat is not actually that useful in the grand scheme of things, considering that most food with wheat is made under the assumption that you can eat infinite amounts of it

heads up that even if you didn't ever actively intend to do so, a lot of people are accidentally heavily invested in AI right now and didn't notice that it happened, just from the mechanics of how these index funds work. if you'd rather bet on people it may be worth looking into moving things around
friend shared this, TLDR if you're fortunate enough to have any retirement invested and it's in a previously not crazy index fund, a lot of your investment is now in the AI tech bubble. I just reallocated to options less tied up in it

p.s. this is not investment advice, I'm not a certified anything

I will say again, Nostalgia is the Devil's Word when it comes to media, especially games. Like that word barely means what it's supposed to mean at this point and it's damaging our ability to communicate about the history of games.
