Single use plastics contribute to 360 million tons of plastics every year - devastating ecosystems and driving global warming. Zero waste grocery shopping from Byrds Filling Station changes that. Support by visiting the link below and share.

Last week Dianna Cowern participated in an 11 hour livestream to raise money and awareness for #LongCovid. Dianna has suffered with long covid for 2 years - she is completely bedbound and totally unable to care for herself. This is her husband Kyle, writing on her behalf.

During the livestream she did not talk to the audience, because she can’t. She can only lie flat in bed, have a few brief conversations each day, cannot toilet by herself, and must be in a dark room to avoid over-stimulation. It is torture.

For many people, watching this livestream completely shifted their understanding of the disease. We also raised over $130K for research and clinical trials.

By showing her life, we hope to raise awareness about how brutal long covid and other post-infectious diseases can be. My hope is that you can also use this content to push for more funding and accelerated treatment. We need help. She needs help.

@thephysicsgirl So much love for Dianna and you. Stay strong 😍

[Dianna Cowern @thephysicsgirl]

From Kyle, Dianna’s husband:

Two years ago, I married my smart, adventurous, curious best friend. I loved her curiosity and so did her 3M+ followers on her Science YouTube channel.

Now, she’s been 100% bedbound with long Covid for 1.5 years. She lays in a dark room, earplugs in, with only her mind and simple thoughts to keep her company. No, she can’t talk, watch TV, read books, listen to podcasts or even music. She can’t tolerate visitors (even the faint smell of laundry detergent makes her sicker). It’s a kind of locked-in hell and there’s currently no cure for this disease.

We desperately need more funding for research to find the cure for #longcovid and #MECFS . @SenDuckworth @SenMarkey @timkaine @BernieSanders

Today @IBM and @PaloAltoNtwks announced a landmark partnership to further precision AI. Not often is there a w-w-w deal where not just the two vendors, but customers win. This is one of those.

@thephysicsgirl has one of the best YouTube channels on making STEM accessible and interesting. She is suffering from extremely debilitating long Covid. A go fund me setup by her sister to help pay medical bills:

@turo I’ve been an avid user and vocal advocate . This morning I got a car with visible damage not mentioned in the rental description. (One photo out of 16 shows it mildly). Contacting the host or your support team to cancel this misleading reservation has been useles Help?

@LisaForteUK Did my very first 14’er yesterday. Didn’t take time to acclimatize and was brutal - but felt good. You’re clearly a pro - Good luck!
