I love that a white guy was flying the plane, a white guy was flying the helicopter, and a white guy gutted the FAA last week but somehow the blame is too much diversity.
Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.
Opportunities are everywhere.
Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉
Graph comparing changes in global surface temperature over time. It features two panels: the left shows reconstructed and observed temperature changes from 1850 to 2020, highlighting unprecedented warming in the last 175 years. the right shows the change in global surface temperature (annual average) from 1850 to 2020. It shows the observed temperature, along with simulated temperature with and without human influence. The simulation that doesn’t include human influence cannot reproduce what is observed.
There's natural variability in climate, but it's never changed so rapidly and dramatically. We know it's due to humans because when we only look at the natural forcing and ignore human influence, we can't reproduce the observed changes. It's real and it's us.

Nothing like a migraine to make the events unfolding in our country today even that more stressful. I’m trying to focus on the smaller, concrete actions I can take. Fighting the “freeze” is a terrifying and almost inescapable mindset, but I’m undoing it more every day.
Stop letting unfunny men tell you there’s something wrong with you for not getting their “jokes”. Stop fake laughing. Let their reality reflect the truth of how fundamentally they misunderstand humor. Neuter their ability to use “it was a joke” for emotional cover. Make them see nobody laugh.
Don't let Donald Trump extending the TikTok ban distract you from the fact that his Administration is about to conduct mass deportations across America in a matter of days.
I’m so aggravated. Living with boomers who have no true concept of the state of the U.S right now is just.. mind-boggling. Not surprising, but it’s hard to hide my absolute internal crisis right now when they are just having dinner with friends?? While everything burns?
Existential crisis,
After existential crisis,
After existential crisis.
“I don’t consider myself COVID cautious. I consider myself COVID competent,” Zebrowski said. “Cautious would imply that I have an unreasonable fear of something. I do not have an unreasonable fear of this disease.”
Nailed it 🔥
I don't trust anyone mocking people for being upset over the TikTok ban in the US. Saying stuff like they're gonna have to get a "real job" now.
When many of the people that rely on that app are disabled and won't be hired for a "real job".
Seriously. It’s not an option. It cannot happen, or so many, including myself, are fucked. I’m disabled on SSDI, way too chronically ill to work, I have no other way to survive.
Instead of people being like "OMG the horror coming the way of Social Security etc." I would really love for them to be like "we're not going to let that shit happen".
Just because as someone who is entirely dependent on Social Security to survive I really need you to not let that shit happen.

'I do think people should be recognized and compensated for labor. But what that compensation looks like in racialized, queer, disabled community has not been money, because that’s not what most of us have,' @drsamischalk.bsky.social in this piece by Tracey Anne Duncan
Reminder: you don’t have to be good at something to enjoy it, you don’t have to get better at it, you don’t have to monetize it, and it doesn’t have to be useful.
This. I’ve lost a lot of family, and most of my friends because of this mindset. I’ve had to start so many new friendships and lose them repeatedly because people eventually stop taking precautions. It’s repeated heartbreak for 5 years now.
It is such a good idea to do this. I need to be reminding myself of the good too. That there’s still joy, even if in smaller spaces.

"Conclusion:
Individuals with COVID-19 infection are more likely to develop cardiovascular complications compared to influenza and RSV, highlighting the need for higher index of suspicion and prompt treatment, as well as steps to limit infection and transmission of this virus in children."
Trying to survive a collapse is making my mast cells pretty damn angry and I’m not having it. Like can’t one thing go right, please? Can you all just calm down? I’m trying to learn about homesteading while poor, disabled, with no ability to do any of this. #MCAS
I feel so lucky to have my gf in my life. I’m alone on thanksgiving today while my family gets together because they refuse to accommodate me with covid precautions. Well, my favorite drink and bakery treats just showed up at my doorstep from my girl to make my day a little better. I am so lucky.
Trying to navigate how to transfer from twt to here. Hopefully I can find everyone!
