I had my 1st C19 infection on 17/April/2022, 1051 days later on 03/March/2025 I had a variety of tests to see what's going on in my body. I decided to publish the results in case they're useful to someone else. I'll be going back for more different tests soon 1/
@1goodtern Physically, I'm morbidly obese, but the muscles in my glutes have atrophied so much my trousers have difficulty staying up.
All this from a "bad cold"!
@1goodtern TV watching ability: I was able to watch S1 of Andor in 2022, and Blue Eye Samurai in 2023, struggled with Shogun in 2024; couldn't finish it. By 2025 I couldn't watch Andor S2. Mostly only 25 minute animations these days, broken up into smaller parts of a few minutes long.
@cheryl_josie@Blueoceanarctic I've had nearly 7 years of isolation, 4.5 of seriously declining health (both physical and cognitive), with absolutely no hope that things ever are going to get better; how should I see life?
@I_amMukhtar "the four incidents as isolated events rather than a pattern of behaviour" How can you have 4 "isolated events"? What does Ian Winter think a "pattern of behaviour" is?
Imagine your job was to make the public doubt Long COVID. You wouldn't try to prove it isn't real. You'd just make it look unsettled, forever. That's the playbook that kept tobacco and climate science "debatable" for decades. Here's what it would look like applied to Long COVID:
@jlerollblues Try reframing that from a negative to a positive; You get to see the absolute peak of human civilization and since it will never be this good again, there's no FOMO...
Your 'moment of doom' for Nov. 8, 2026 ~ blackjack!
"A shocking recent caveat was a joint statement by the German Physics Society and the German Meteorological Society that global warming of +3 degrees by 2050 was now on the cards."

@byStarmont69@ryzerth Served for life? How short do you think their life will be? Now, I have 64GB of ram, but my 1st computer had an epic 4 megabytes of ram!!!
@kananaskinyeti I don't know, but my guess is if everyone was covid cautious it would be bad for the economy (rich people's money) in the short term (they aren't thinking about the long term at all).
@ruthdelioncourt If you were a man born at just the wrong time (around the turn of 19th/20th century, or slightly earlier), you got to fight in both of them!
@DrMarjorieRobe1 Unless there's a cure; politicians hate acknowledging problems unless there's an easy solution they can take credit for, but once there's an easy solution they love taking credit for it.
@DrMarjorieRobe1 Unlikely. It's less than two years since Biden was in office, admitting there was a problem now would be admitting there was a problem two years ago. Unless things get so bad it becomes impossible to ignore, don't ever expect acknowledgement.
Now Russell Brand's been convicted of rape, we need to talk about Sylvie Berki. Because she can't speak for herself.
In 2014, Ms Berki said she'd been assaulted by Russell Brand.
But if she talks about it, even now, she risks jail.
