TLDR: Covid weakens immune systems. This makes you more vulnerable to 1) Covid reinfection 2) other viral, bacterial and even rare fungal infections, which are more likely to be severe and 3) the awakening of dormant viruses already in your body (e.g. shingles, Herpes-Zoster virus).

If you are in a public space. WEAR A MASK.
N95 or KN95 at minimum.

COVID infections are not mentioned nor is immune dysfunction from C19 leading to other illness.
We have also seen an increase in anxiety/panic in kids after being infected.

Trauma recovery is not a "performance."

Work toward not giving a f*ck what your recovery looks like to anyone not in your skin.

Struggling w/ stuff like budgeting, time management, or meal planning isn't evidence you can't "adult." It's often evidence you've had to McGuyver your way through life-- & if the skillset you developed doesn't map perfectly to some peoples' expectations, that's NOT a "failure."

Seeing lots of flu earlier than normal and COVID. Waiting for tests to come back BUT no matter where C19 ends up this is going to be a BAD FLU SEASON.
Mask up in public and while the shot may not turn out to be a great match it can still offer protection.
Masks on, sleeves up.

My husband and I were at a busy mall yesterday wearing our N95s, and we saw only one other person wearing a N95). I was going to hug him but restrained myself (I embarrass my husband enough).

Please consider masking with N95s along with getting vaccinated.

I promise I won’t hug you either.

COVID levels remain steady at low to moderate levels in most areas.
Wearing an N95 or equivalent in public indoor spaces is highly recommended as flu and RSV are rejoining the party.
Be smart. Be safe. Be you.

We may or may not ever get the validation for our recovery, for saving & transforming our own life, that we crave from the people we crave it from. That can be a bitter, bitter pill.

And: we cannot let the taste of that bitter pill convince us recovery isn't worth doing. It is.

A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

As part of a new climate plan, or as abandoning any commitments to reduce emissions? Carney might as well have run for the Conservative leadership.

I shouldn't be shocked, but I'm still always brought up short to realize how many people think "civility" means "white people speaking in relatively calm voices" no matter what vile shit they say.

We know that Covid and influenza are both able to reactivate latent cancer cells in humans, causing them to come out of remission, and that those cells replicate faster, metastasize faster, and are more difficult to treat than they otherwise would have been.

The discourse over Kirk’s career is really hammering home how little the media and so many Dems understand the concept of lying or bad faith arguments.

An entire life dedicated to poisoning the well under the guise of ‘an exchange of ideas’ and nobody is capable of calling it out for what it was.
