Covid (@UCSF) Chronicles, Day 504
To me, the most confusing time in the pandemic was May 2020, as we exited lockdown and nobody quite knew what they should & shouldn’t do (clean the mail? touch the dog?).
But now is giving May 2020 a run for its money. (🧵1/25)
Remember the last time you couldn’t focus at work because a group of people who didn’t know you were deciding for you if you would be allowed to get married, make your own health choices, go to school, buy a cake, serve in the military, pee, or vote?
To anyone saying, "This is not who we are."
Yes. It is.
Slavery, genocide, internment, segregation all happened in America. This is the America we don't want to see. But pretending it isn't there gives it power because it goes unseen.
This is who we are. And we have to change.
@gaywonk Self-described “healers” are toxic both in-game and in-life. Go for the recruit who mostly does other things but can heal when needed. They’re more useful in the long-run.
