“If you can’t cook there are services”

“If you can’t support yourself just tell them & get help”

“If it were really that bad support would show up”

This is internalized ableism.

Most of the time, help isn’t available.

Support doesn’t come.

Disabled people are on their own.

@vipintukur @AnciraBecky An article that I read about 2 yrs ago when I was at the worst of LC ... Was about RNA being converted back to DNA via a Reverse Transcriptase reaction. If RNA that is in the citoplasm enters the nucleus ... It can be converted back to DNA and then recombined in our chromosomes

What if many viruses never truly leave us?

Implications of RNA virus persistence for post-acute sequelae and chronic inflammatory syndromes

➡️ A new review challenges the long-held belief that most RNA viruses cause only short-lived infections. Increasing evidence suggests that viral RNA, proteins, and even replication-competent genomes can persist long after the acute illness has resolved.

➡️ This lingering viral footprint may continuously interact with the immune system, driving chronic inflammation, #LongCOVID, and other post-viral syndromes. 1/

Far-UVC is already proving it can reduce infectious pathogens in indoor air— NFL teams are investing to protect their players and performance.
Imagine if that same energy existed everywhere else.

Turns out cleaner air isn’t complicated… people just have to actually give a sh*t.

Central/SE #Texas have been on fire w/COVlD for 21 days.

Levels are extremely high in College Station, followed by near Houston, then Waco.

The CDC defines Texas as "very low" because 52% of wastewater sites are very low. That misses the public health opportunity.

Watching the World Cup has me asking questions. Do Europeans get issued 8 weeks of vacation, unlimited airline miles, and a trust fund at birth? Because every match I turn on there are 40,000 fans following their team to a different state or country on a Tuesday afternoon while Americans are hiding in a work bathroom checking scores.

@DailyChinaNewss I would remove the word Islamic. Governments should not be religious. But a Democratic, Secular Iran, I would support ... Then each individual can choose to follow Islam or whatever religion they want ...

En México, el antiobradorismo lleva años nublando el juicio de muchos de sus críticos.

Mientras aquí la descalifican, fuera del país la izquierda global reconoce el liderazgo de Claudia Sheinbaum.

We had warned for two weeks that wastewater levels were exceedingly high in Central Texas. Now the Emergency Department visit levels have kicked up.
