If anybody needs me I'll be on my internet

[your pal sarah @sassasaservice]

@Vickyvdtogt I will absolutely share the trends I see once I’ve got a few weeks of data! 🙌

[your pal sarah @sassasaservice]

@Vickyvdtogt Most excellent, thank you for sharing. I ordered a lactate meter myself because I am so fascinated by your team’s hypothesis. I have been describing my crashes to everyone as, “my biochemistry seems to have shifted weirdly in the poisoning direction” and so this just MAKES SENSE

[your pal sarah @sassasaservice]

@Vickyvdtogt Yes, symptoms! Sorry, had to get creative with my abbreviations due to character limit 😅

[your pal sarah @sassasaservice]

@Vickyvdtogt Thank you so much for being willing to share — so thrilled to hear you were able to feel better using such accessible interventions (breathing, electrolytes, food).

@organichemusic I know how you feel and I know the desperation of not knowing who to turn to for help. This desperation lead to my finding an excellent care team outside of insurance. Each will support you remotely or refer you to a trusted colleague. Plz DM me if you’d like their contact❤️

@coco_chatel Anecdotally, myself and one other individual I know reliably experience a 2-3 day crash following dose increases before returning to (or exceeding) our previous baseline

[your pal sarah @sassasaservice]

@loscharlos @Stanford I literally experienced an overnight improvement in function ( 20% =>60% ) when I started taking 0.5mg. That change has been durable and my baseline keeps improving (slowly) as my doc slowly increases dose. I am definitely in the cohort where this has been life changing.

@organichemusic My doctor has been willing to prescribe LDN and it’s working extremely well for me. I’m eager to experiment with something like Rapamycin to try and induce autophagy, but she’s not on board with that yet (and to be fair, maybe for good reason)

[your pal sarah @sassasaservice]

@longvaccvoyager @angryhacademic I have, twice. Each round caused 1 bedbound day followed by 5 symptom free days. Then slow descent back into daily fatigue/exercise intolerance, etc. Considering trialing a once-per-week for 6-12 weeks course, at the rec of my neurologist, but am mid-crash so it’s on hold

[your pal sarah @sassasaservice]

@organichemusic @BiologistBunk I already eat this way (no sugar, time restricted to 8 hours), but havent attempted water fasting yet. I guess I would under supervision. Thanks for the awareness!

There are many potential pitfalls in remote work and putting on pants every morning solves almost none of them.

BREAKING: New real time Coronavirus cases. What you are doing is working.

San Francisco put in place strict #StayHome measure. Miami-Dade lagged. See what happened.

This looks at abnormal fevers real-time. Thanks ⁦@kinsa⁩.

#StayHome works!

Forgot what it was like to sit in a coffeeshop sincerely intending to do work and instead spending the time eavesdropping on literally every conversation within earshot

How I learned to stop worrying and love a high-pony

OH: That’s not crazy, that’s a reference to Clinton ‘96

[your pal sarah @sassasaservice]

OH: I’d rather take the day off and think about my contract with America

Does Sam's advice to not judge any thoughts that come up during the @wakingup course change if those thoughts are inexplicably and incessantly images of him as Ben Stiller giving me the same advice?

In a week's time I have heard the term "reticular activating system" no fewer than 5 times from 5 distinct persons in a variety of seemingly distinct channels. This is some kind of RAS filter fractal.
