the best thing I ever did for my health was start wearing an N95 after I learned about SARS-2 and other dangerous airborne viruses that our governments have normalized as a way of population control. I’m never going back to not masking in public. You can’t trust anyone😷
@hellopugh I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 27 (also in the US).
Problem is, I’d had it since I was 16, and told every doctor I saw in that decade about my symptoms.
@sjlaro713 The ones I got from @masklabglobal are a bit larger, and they sell little button tightened to adjust them down as needed. They’re really pretty too!
What if every time someone said “identity politics” Dems turned it around and said “you mean equal rights for everyone” do you hear the difference 🤷🏾♀️
@JamesThrot It looks like the earliest stages of my grandmother’s vascular dementia, where she’d forget the mail until bills were late and such and it all stacked up until she couldn’t live independently anymore before her passing
@JamesThrot I’m noticing things like folks replying to my email answering their question with…the same question, with the entire email thread intact. Memory issues, too, people in jobs 15 years who can’t remember processes they’ve followed every day up to now, etc.
This is super common in fundamentalist Christian spaces. Basically anything they can blame demons for, they will. It’s a way to avoid accountability (for those with power) or compound punishment (toward those without). These folks never left the old Satanic Panic days
@fatnutritionist Happy to help! I escaped one of their cults once I became an adult, so I try to let folks know what all’s going on in there, especially now that they’re seizing the chance to truly go mainstream (they’ve been trying for decades)
@emilykmay I feel this, I’m pretty used to being hated because they think their god told them to hate me, but these folks are just hating for idk the love of the game? Baffling
@froglet80 I’m convinced that part of the risk of heart disease going up as we age is just an estimation of how many times we’ve been ill and the cumulative damage it’s done being framed as entropy rather than repeated attacks
@KrossSword@ErinInTheMorn They want us imprisoned and on the sex offender registry for public indecency, which they can then leverage for prison labor while also systematically disenfranchising us and denying us housing and employment.
conservative christians: “the sin of sodom and gomorrah was about homosexuality”
the bible: “now this was the sin of your sister sodom: she and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy”
@MarvinCori They’re standing there realizing “I’d hate it if others treated me the way I’m treating you”—like come on bud, you’re so close to getting it
