Hello! I have not been paid yet and have bills due today on top of needing money for gas, food and dog food! Any help and sharing is appreciated. Thanks! #MutualAidRequest#MutualAid
200+ cases of suspected mpox have been reported in Sudan’s Darfur region; the cases are not yet lab-confirmed, but field reports and images suggest mpox, which could spread rapidly through displaced, malnourished populations. https://t.co/1OuJL7aJP0
Reporter of China State Television CGTN, broadcasting in front of Gaza Shifa Hospital:
"I saw with my own eyes that there were at least 10 Palestinian children under the age of 5 without heads."
A sample comment of someone who AGREED with the @WIRED piece on long covid which promoted “brain retraining” if you’re still wondering why it’s damaging
Congress wants you to think they can’t survive on $83 an hour but that you can survive on $7.25.
The level of contempt they have for the citizens is truly sickening.
“People get used to anything. The less you think about your oppression, the more your tolerance for it grows. After a while, people just think oppression is the normal state of things. But to become free, you have to be acutely aware of being a slave.” -Assata Shakur
@tylerblack32 This piece claims that long covid can be healed with visualization techniques. It is offensive and highly stigmatizing to a condition that is already stigmatized- reinforcing broadly believed prejudices in the medical community at a time when we need to debunk those biases
@AlanLevinovitz@WIRED Well? Do you feel like a clown? silly question, youre a fscist who didn’t want to let their sick kid stay home from school. Knit YourSelf dude
False balance, interviewee's COIs, confounding anecdotes with evidence, premise based on author's bias, logical fallacies, missing scientific consensus, the misguided parallelism "body or mind, real or fake" is the cherry on top.
A masterpiece in how not to write (or edit).
Perhaps it meets today's Wired standards, but not the ones I was subjected to a decade a go. This was the publication that wouldn't let me write about someone because he worked for the school I attended five years earlier.
a reminder that several organizing groups in yucatan are trying to restore a building so its a functional community center. Boost if youre able 🙏 https://t.co/7DXHLq05s3
And don’t tell me about the burden of proof here. The most obvious conclusion when a bunch of people get very similar problems after a virus is that the virus did something to their bodies. It would be more surprising if it was psychological. *That* claim also demands proof.
It is odd but not surprising that people demand very high quality evidence before they accept that ME/CFS and/or dysautonomia are physical illnesses, but are content to rely on anecdotes when accepting that they aren’t.
Sudan is currently the largest humanitarian crisis in the world. millions displaced both internally and externally. please help a Sudanese family in need if u can
