"Wearing an N95 or better respirator in every place where you share the air with people who might have Covid is the single most important thing you can do. More than 400 studies show masking is highly effective at protecting you[...] The less infections you sustain, the more your brain is shielded"👇

That’s a lot of effort. Hope you found good shoes 🤗

This week we discuss one of our favorite "not scary" scary movies, Dave Made a Maze, to continue their escalating ScareTober series of movies. We inversed the scare factor of Cooties and this, but we stand by our decision for the story. #DaveMadeAMaze #NickThune #JamesUrbaniak #MeeraRohitKumbhani

This reminds me of how David Lynch said he wanted to keep working but couldn’t because COVID posed too great a risk & people stopped being willing to mask up to protect others.

Ableism is an insidious evil in society & healthcare. It convinces us to abandon each other for profit & convenience.

Enjoyed the New Yorker interview with Tim Curry, a free-wheeling conversation in which there were several sensitive questions about his paralyzing stroke. But oh my goodness, why was there no follow-up at all to this staggering answer? www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...
Screenshot of text from the interview:

You’ve always been an incredibly physical performer: your strut during “Sweet Transvestite” in “Rocky Horror,” or the way you run around unfurling the mystery at the end of “Clue.” Do you still feel that in your body? Does that live somewhere in you still?

I think it does, but it’s angry. My mobility is angry to get out. But it’s not happened yet. I do a certain amount of physical therapy. I did a whole bunch of it at Cedars-Sinai, and I got very close, I think, to walking. That was tantalizing. For insurance reasons, I had to withdraw. And I have a visiting physical therapist now, but I can only really do exercises from my bed, which is pretty pathetic. It’s not going to get me walking, I don’t believe.

[I have underlined the sentence "For insurance reasons, I had to withdraw."]

Pre-op done. Bc of my chronic respiratory failure, I'll likely remain intubated in the ICU for a bit after surgery. Also pretty high risk for rebound pulmonary emboli & hemorrhage. But! I need the surgery🤷‍♀️

At $4149/$6K with $1851 remaining. Surgery is Oct. 23rd. Any continued help is appreciated!

Apologies, somehow the original was deleted. I'm undergoing my 3rd urgent, non-elective revision spinal fusion this Oct to replace & extend my hardware. I'd appreciate any help in achieving this goal to ensure I have the resources necessary to recover safely & fully.

As we begin to head towards winter holiday season BS already, here’s your reminder the Salvation Army are pro-fascist, eugenicist, queerphobes.

Donate directly to mutual aids for queer, disabled, and BIMPOC fundraisers instead of Salvation Army’s bootlicking bullshit.

The Salvation Army really is the epitome of a certain kind of white conservatism

They prey on the most vulnerable. They happily leave the sort of people they don't like to die in the streets

But they smile a lot and don't cuss and say "Jesus", so they get to be respectable

A kind reminder that a strong, collective, grassroots #LongCovid movement would be an existential threat to those who pushed mass infection dynamics. Hence, the attacks on the name itself, the concept, the links between the disease and a pandemic driven by a SARS virus

Because it needs to be said:

The Salvation Army does not exist to save you

The Salvation Army exists to convert you

And if they cannot convert you, they will not lift a finger to save you

Do not support those whose “charity“ comes with conditions

It’s dinner time for the police. Appears to be pizza from a Salvation Army van.

Broadview’s “free speech” curfew starts soon, at 6pm.

and because half of covid cases are asymptomatic, you might not even know you’re sick.

covid isn’t going anywhere until we stop letting it mutate and spread.

the current vaccines alone can’t do that. they primarily help reduce the severity of the initial infection.

please #MaskUp in shared air.

Your bad cold is likely COVID. Your horrible allergies right now are likely COVID. We're in a massive COVID wave. If you test the first day of symptoms on a rapid test it is likely going to give you a false negative - you need to test again in 48 hours and again 48 hours after that on a rapid test.

It’s not too late to wear a mask.

It’s not too late to protect your health.

It’s not too late to show you care about the health of those around you.

It’s not too late to do your part to make public spaces inclusive & accessible.

It’s radical kindness & community care.

Oh, I know. Prime also has that listed for rent. They have put her name on both. But I had hit play before figuring that out.

We have to hear an abductor trying to molest a child? Why in fuck would that be part of this otherwise boring and annoying movie? Every single thing in the abductor’s house is out of touch with actual sex predator behaviour.
A ★½ review of Amber Alert (2012)
Well, this is listed on Prime as starring Hayden Panettiere - that is incorrect. The found footage is BRIGHT after an intro that is darkly lit. A lot of time is spent inside a car with three people ar...

The brutal selfishness of the masses has been on full display throughout the ongoing pandemic of Covid-19. By shunning the necessity of respirator masks and other safety measures, they have shown a total lack of concern for the collective well-being of the human community.
