Ok this rips my heart out.
I must not be a Republican or a billionaire.
ProPublica spoke to about 150 people who had lived in homeless encampments when cities cleared them out in “sweeps.”

We distributed notecards so people could tell us about the toll in their own words.

We are experiencing a more severe than usual flu season and COVID rates are starting to rise. If you want to reduce your chances of getting sick, one of the most effective things you can do is wear a high quality mask. 🤫

Walgreens: (possibly) an easy place to get yer jabs!
I just included it when I scheduled my vaccines this year at Walgreens, they didn't require any documentation on titers or an order. No charge to me & got a coupon for 20% off my next visit. Win-win! Sadly, you do need an order for monkey pox (which covers smallpox as well) or i'd've done that too!

AI has actively made life worse for literally everyone

- tech is now more expensive
- you cannot trust most media of reality anymore
- programs barely function
- energy prices
- literal psychosis
- your voice can be literally stolen for evil
- more spyware

but hey, you can avoid paying an artist.

what is extra frustrating about the continued efforts to kill it is that none of them understand this

everyone attacking it is convinced that killing section 230 will allow them to remove some part of the internet that they don't like, be it content moderation or sex predators, but it's much worse
Bluntly, Section 230 is almost literally the law that the entire internet rests upon, it makes it possible for user generated content to exist on the internet, it’s incredibly important, and genuinely we must defend it at all costs. This place literally would not exist without it.

I drew this when I was dealing with insurance and turned it into a print for fun. Apparently other people feel the same way.

I only made like 10 so grab one if you want one.

This is my favorite recurring Seattle theater event and it's not even close.

A one-night production of It's a Wonderful Life where no one knows who is in the cast– including the cast. They enter with the audience and say their first line from their seat. There's not really anything else like it.

If it doesn't get inside you, it can't make you sick.

Respirators are designed by experts to help protect you from aerosol hazards, including COVID, the flu and other airborne diseases, and tested to make sure they are effective - and they are.

Anyone who tells you otherwise is a quack.

Wearing a mask is inconvenient, but not as inconvenient as lockdowns

The people who named it "Tar-zhay" are the people you threw under the bus, you absolute fucking losers.

The chain unveiled its first-ever concept store in SoHo this week, adorned with stylish apparel, designer collaborations, and beauty products — all key areas that its incoming CEO hopes will revive its former "Tar-zhay" glory.

The racial nature of the terror that has been brought to each of our doorsteps should be instructive to the effort we can put into fixing shit when we win

WHEN we win
Stop accepting the cynical notion that “nothing can be done” about guns, or anything else for that matter. Every time you give up hope, the emperor has already won.

If you wanna learn more about immune amnesia this is a good primer from the American Society for Microbiology.

Measles binds to your immune system’s memory cells and infects them, effectively erasing their database. It then produces all new memory cells - that contain info ONLY for measles.
Measles and Immune Amnesia | ASM.org
Measles is much more serious than a rash and fever: it also causes immune amnesia and leaves patients especially vulnerable to secondary infection.

Jay Inslee's 2020 authoritarian opponent Loren Culp appears to be calling for mass executions by hanging. This is a tweet from today.

If you're not on Trump's team, you should be killed, basically. Horrific stuff.

It's Matt Shea level awful ("If they do not yield... kill all males.")
