An answer to the loneliness crisis isn't telling people with long Covid & other disabilities to take more health risks. It's creating a society where people don't have to choose between protecting their health & participating in community in the first place

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT!!

we’re organizing the first ever covid-conscious festival in france and we need your help to make it happen!

we need funds to make it the best festival ever: activities, concerts, discussions, accessibility measures… crowdfunding link below!! 🤍😷

[Ivan l'Africain @AlterIvan1]

You'll see the same pattern in the news across EU countries, but so far only in Spain has anyone said it like it is 💀

[PACO @PacoOnPause]

It's not that people can't understand. It's that if they do, then it's incompatible with how they want to live their life. So they are stuck hoping that it's not true and that this won't affect them.

22 juin 2025 / 25 juin 2026 - Premiers concerts de france en autodéfense sanitaire !
L'artiste, phytocene, demande à son public de se masquer, pour la protéger et rendre son concert + accessible.
Et elle veille à la QAI avec son purificateur d'air et ceux prêtés par l'ARRA.

Nearly all of these "philanthropists" promote and fund research exclusively for Ushio products.

Ushio is publicly held and controls most of the Far-UVC market. Ushio has refused to implement the incredibly simple measure of replaceable excimer bulbs, but instead forces users to replace the entire product- bulbs, cut-filter, ballast, enclosure, electronics- all ripped from the wall and thrown in the trash. There is no good faith reason to refuse to implement a 136-year-old "innovation" like user-replaceable bulbs except for profiteering.

Why sell $50 in gas and glass when you can make the rubes pay $2000 for a whole new fixture? They'll even demand their governments pay for your scam instead of demanding you make it properly and not scam them😂

Ushio also knows that simply replacing aluminum reflectors with PTFE will increase the efficiency of their emitters by around 30% at almost negligible additional manufacturing cost, making Far-UVC that much more affordable per watt of output. Instant 30% savings according to Ushio’s own data:

https://t.co/L1HhVzlJrn

They won't because why spend on even modest retooling when they can coast on an 8-year-old design and spend the money on marketing? Why increase the milliwatt output of your product per dollar when you only need a certain number of milliwats per room, so that will just result in people buying less of your product?

If you were a philanthropist genuinely concerned about global biosecurity and saving lives, why would you focus all your advocacy on a single brand-name product that costs 5x as much per milliwatt as non-IP-encumbered products that can be made by dozens of competing factories, a proprietary product that has planned obsolescence, and limited efficiency baked in?

The single largest impediment to Far-UVC at scale is cost- so why are these "philanthropists" focused on promoting the most costly possible solution from a company that flatly refuses to innovate? Why are they funding research with almost comical conflicts of interest, to exclusively validate the products of a billion-dollar company that has its own well-funded R&D division?

All while pinky promising that Ushio will totally lower the price if they get enough orders on the product they have a near monopoly on- in violation of their fiduciary duty. Because that's what companies with proprietary products do when faced with government-mandated demand: cut the price in half🤡

Oh, right- because that's the Far-UVC company the "philanthropists" can quietly buy stock in, and get in on the ground floor while they advocate for mandatory ACH regulations (funded by corporate tax breaks) that can only be cost-effectively met by Far-UVC.

Invest in the supply side, and then- out of the goodness of your heart, as a true philanthropist😇, advocate for inelastic demand that will just coincidentally make your stock price skyrocket.

If philanthropists were actually interested in Far-UVC for biosecurity reasons- trying to save lives on a global scale, they would be funding non-IP-encumbered solutions, user-replaceable bulbs, and an open-source gas mix specification to extend bulb life- all of which would instantly lower costs to about 10% of what they are now and make it actually financially feasible to put Far-UVC in most of the places where it will do the most good.

Fortunately for them, if there's one thing USians can be counted on for, it's staggering gullibility when it comes to the actual motivations of their "philanthropists".

Les amis, si vous vous sentez sidérés par la vague de chaleur et ce que vous savez très bien qu'elle annonce (le climat qui se pète la gueule, les horreurs et les souffrances qu'on va connaître dans nos vies), je vous en prie: prenez votre anxiété par les cornes et battez-vous.

i’m so happy to be able to play in front of a masked audience that mask especially for me. but at the same time their not masking in their daily life is the very reason i’m unable to make a living out of music and to get somewhere with my music career. mixed feelings.

[holocene @holo_cene]

a lot of people are like ‘oh i support your mask-required show it’s such a good idea!! but yeah i wouldn’t mask everyday tho’

ok so you support me yet everyday you participate in the very spread of the virus that makes me unable to play any show if i don’t organize them myself?

Ce n'est pas « polémique ». C'est de la #misogynoir, raciste et sexiste, et de la transphobie.
De rien.

[holocene @holo_cene]

my fourth EP, bird songs on power lines, will be out on june 26th 🤍 it symbolizes my journey being a female artist in the music industry, it’s about my relationship with pop music, misogyny, and alternative music. you can pre-save below! <33

The friend I met one week ago mentioned an ex gf who suffers from #LongCovid but is being treated psychologically (of course 🙃) because no one believes her.

I offered him to give her my contact so I could connect her to other LC people 🥹

Now I need your help 🙌 1/2
