Any time I take a new drive here I pass at least one barb-wired grey box of a prison or “beautiful” decrepit brick asylum that only serves as a hazard but which people will inexplicably fight to keep standing vacant.

The Hudson River Psych Hospital burned down yesterday and I am losing my patience with the people mourning it.
Your “fond memories” of a “beautiful building” where disabled people were tortured are really weird.
The Hudson Valley is the institutional belt of NYC. It is where the city warehoused people historically and where it continues to do so now, in prisons and psych hospitals and juvenile detention.

the pseudoscience enjoyed by the women in my water aerobics class is as eclectic as it is concerning
last week they were rushing out to sign up for line dancing because it “prevents dementia” and today it’s a brand of protein bar I don’t think exists
WE TOLD YOU ALL THAT BANNING MASKS WAS GOING TO IMPACT EVERYONE. WHAT DID YOU THINK WAS GOING TO FUCKING HAPPEN??
Disabled people FOUGHT these bans and everyone fought US for trying to protect y’all.

To be fair, getting deferred from donating blood in a catholic church is a historically accurate way to mark the first day of pride.
hey @NWSL can we please get the 5/17 Thorns/Angel City game uploaded to NWSL+ before the break?

And despite the whole house of people being infected, not isolating from each other, exposing animals and neighbors, not ventilating, and exercising while actively infectious, we’re supposed to believe they all survived with no post-viral damage.
The covid episode of Four Seasons is such blatant anti-solidarity propaganda.
Making the only character who knows and cares about preventing disease be the one to accidentally cause a superspreader while everyone calls him neurotic isn’t funny.
I get that it’s supposed to be ironic that the one person who is trying to avoid covid is who spreads it and that his exposure is while collecting rapid tests to bring to his friends, but the punchline there is that caring and trying to prevent disease aren’t worth it.
I feel like 'intersectionality' discourse hasnt caught up to the fact that the US government has directed ICE to classify 'trans' as a type of brown. as of some months ago. sure this was more true at some point but white society broadly figured out that loophole and is closing it
