my father-in-law is a “I know a guy” Guy. sadly all the old Guys are aging out of the Guy Economy. Guys are fundamentally incompatible with Hustle Culture because it’s not about “winning” a deal, it’s about collecting favors and goodwill in a mutually-beneficial cycle. protect your local Guy Economy

Another day, another attempted mask ban. This time in Maryland.
Please, if you stopped masking we really need you to start again. It will reduce the number of Covid and flu cases, but it will also help normalize masks as a health tool.
Disabled people need you to help fight these ugly laws:

i feel like it's an open question whether or not the flu vaccine will even be available next season
On Friday night, HHS ordered CDC to take down all flu vaccine campaign materials from its website. Materials are starting to come down.
For example, a campaign explaining that flu shot can reduce flu severity from "wild to mild" is now offline. Left image is from Friday, right is now

Keith Haring died of AIDS aged 31 on 16 Feb 1990.
One of his last works, Unfinished Painting, was deliberately incomplete, reflecting the devastating, unquantifiable loss to the arts due to AIDS.

Fed goons removing the T & Q from the LGBTQ at Stonewall should make you more angry than it makes you sad.
Rage for those killed by this government during the AIDS crisis. Rage for all of us who have to live fraught lives just for being ourselves.
Not just sadness, rage. This was done to us.

I have no idea how much they’ll be able to get away with in terms of messing with vaccines, but I will say it’s never a bad idea to be proactive about getting up to date on all your vaccinations!

If it seems like I've been trying harder to get people interested in buying my book lately, I have, and I'll be transparent about why.
Next month, 78 Acts of Liberation will have been out for 6 months. At 6 months is when bookstores generally return unsold copies. 🧵

David Lynch spent the last portion of his life in isolation. He said it was due to being high-risk and unable to risk getting COVID.
He’s not the only person with disability or illness who’s been left behind.
Everywhere you go without an n95 is a place you’ve decided disabled people don’t belong.

If it makes more sense to you to risk your/others' health for social or mental health reasons, that's a conversation we can have because that's genuine and perhaps understandable. But don't tell me the elephant left the damn room and everybdy you know ain't sick all the time. Be fucking for real.

For real though, a lot of y'all I really respect and appreciate, but you're being goofy AF about this. You need to admit to yourselves that you refuse to grieve a world that doesn't exist anymore, and you are desperately plugging your ears & shutting your eyes to the fact that c19 went nowhere.

Y'all are going to have to pardon my irritation with this one, but how the fuck is it a "personal choice" to wear a mask when we all share air? And why are liberals and leftists now quoting this right wing circa June 2020 talking point at me as if I'm the one being illogical??

The science says that most people with COVID are infectious for 10 days regardless of symptoms.
Yet the CDC guidelines say it’s fine to resume normal activities if you’re feeling better and don’t have a fever for 24 hrs.
Governments are to blame for normalizing mass infection.
