ROLLING STONE: “The current Congress has dropped the pretense of public service altogether… Congress enjoys ultraluxe health care as it fights to gut yours.”
@RepTimBurchett@MarshaBlackburn why don’t you care about anyone but yourselves? https://t.co/9DY7rR6drJ
I talk about what covid is doing to kids because I know what it's like to be The Always Sick Kid who turned into The Always Sick Adult-- missing huge chunks of my life, not believed or taken seriously, always feeling out of the loop and oh yeah, fucking SICK ALL THE TIME.
These kids are being thrown to the wolves and they need people fighting for them. It really is that horrifyingly simple. But we WON'T. It's not a "can't" thing.
The fact that so few people are fighting for them is fucking devastating. They're on the frontlines of an ongoing mass disabling event. None of this ever had to be this way. These kids deserve so much better than what we're allowing to happen to them.
A better future is possible but it's gonna require people to stay loud about this and fight for everyone affected by covid-- undoubtedly in the billions by now-- and the tens of millions who have died thus far from covid complications.
It's affecting all of us, but no one wants to talk about it. Half a decade of pretending is LONG ENOUGH. Time to reckon with your shit and step the fuck up. If you don't care enough about your own health, do it for your loved ones. Your neighbors. The kids. Fucking SOMEBODY.

I've done some of the legwork so you don't have to.
Step the fuck up.

Big night for the nocturnal bird migration over the Carolinas. It was a busy one last night; tonight could be even busier. Turn off those exterior lights tonight if you can. #cltwx#ncwx#scwx#wcnc#birds
As I mentioned a couple weeks ago, I'm going to be putting together a way for me to give back and generate an income so this doesn't feel so one-sided to me. I'll be starting a patreon and a twitch soon.
In the meantime, any help is always appreciated

Heads up, East Coast! Coastal Flood Advisories are in effect for FL & SC due to King Tides. A major coastal storm is also expected to develop this weekend, bringing a triple threat of rain, wind, and flooding to the Carolinas/Mid-Atlantic. We're LIVE! #scwx#flwx#ncwx
Open enrollment is coming up so I'm here to warn you, DO NOT BUY ANTHEM BCBS PLANS FROM THE ACA MARKETPLACE unless you have no other options, especially in rural areas. NONE of the specialists listed in the provider directory actually accept my insurance.
