My feed is about a 50/50 split between pandemic doom and climate doom
It's certainly been interesting to watch them accelerate in tandem, as if holding hands
@T_Brautigan@TRyanGregory @PriscillaFalzi1 Death of SARS survivors occurred 10-15 years after from early onset immunosenescence. Death from “cancer”, MS, AD, PD - death “with” persistent SARS infection that we failed to identify until it was too late.

every other tech headline these days is like “google has invented a device that can skin you alive from across the planet” and we’re all just supposed to be like ok! 🙂👍 and then scroll to the next news story about a super storm obliterating five cities
Society is going through a slow-motion collapse, losing its morality.
Because the frontal lobe degrades over time with repeated hits, the transition won’t happen overnight like in a zombie movie.
Instead, it will be a terrifying, progressive erosion of civilisation.
A 2025 Singapore study of 4.7 million people during Delta & Omicron waves found increased risks of new health problems compared with no infection:
• 1 infection: 10% higher risk
• 2 infections: 21% higher risk
Those infected twice had 17% higher risk than those infected once.
It's not just in older adults. Brain autopsies of COVID patients revealed the exact same cellular hallmarks seen in Alzheimer's — hyperphosphorylated tau and leaky calcium channels in brain cells. Published in Alzheimer's & Dementia.

The real problem with #AirborneDementia is that onset will occur years after the acute phase. Anyone who argues "correlation isn't causation" wants you to ignore that there's no evidence to support otherwise. There's decades of evidence in this graphic. 1/ #WearN95
🩸Leaked fibrinogen forms inflammatory clots in the brain.
Fibrinogen is a clotting protein that normally stays in the blood and forms clots only where they are needed. Clinical and postmortem studies show elevated CSF albumin and fibrinogen leakage into brain tissue (Popa 2025). Once fibrinogen gets in, it can bind the spike protein and form clots that carry inflammation. In mice, these fibrin-spike clots caused neuroinflammation and neuron loss even without active infection, and blocking the inflammatory part of fibrin protected neurons (Ryu 2024). Fibrinogen was also found in the brains of COVID-19 patients and predicted post-COVID cognitive deficits (Ryu 2024).
Watching adults' reading comprehension disintegrate in real time. I'll keep wearing my N99 mask, thanks. And bosses ask why my error rate is much lower. Well, I could tell you but you wouldn't like it!
I don’t understand how everyone is watching everyone in the world get cancer, kidney disease, cardiac arrest, heart attacks, brain damage, blood clots, strokes, etc and is like yea I’m gonna go without a mask. Lmaooo like I am around legit bozos.
This is why you should wear a mask. Because this is how former friends, colleagues and employers will speak about you when a virus disables you and you no longer have any social, cultural or labor value to extract. Sick, alienated capitalist society
@portna Most of my work team is sick right now, which is interesting because we're a fully remote global team scattered across 3 countries and 6 time zones
@salvagingyouth I've cried very extensively in a 3M 6500 while spending hours at the emergency vet. It just kinda sucks because you can't blow your nose, you'll have to mouth breathe.
@kirabira I didn't know what was happening to me at the time, either. Went to the GP for fatigue, brain fog, and swollen lymph nodes, tested + for EBV. They told me it was viral, nbd. They failed to mention that the symptoms might persist for months, or that I'd never return to baseline.
Herpesviruses. The ones that lie dormant in us for life - wake up during COVID. Documented over and over. A new review maps it across the whole family and leaves the big question open - is the reawakening driving the illness, or just a sign of how battered the immune system is?🧵
Gas EXPLOSION live on @weatherchannel this morning. While covering the big flooding in TN/GA -- this propane tank lit up right towards that SUV @StephanieAbrams@JimCantore
