“I haven’t thought about COVID in a long time.”
For a lot of people, that’s the whole story: if they bounced back, it feels like the crisis is over. But for those living with Long COVID, life never went back to normal, and that gap between realities is its own kind of wound.

For people living with Long COVID, that gap is brutal. They’re “watching people [they] love act like none of it matters, while [their] life is barely functioning.”
Brasure links this to “identity-protective cognition”: we believe what keeps us in good standing with our community. Doctors and friends “folded” not because they don’t care, but because they’re tired, want normal, and are protecting their place in the tribe.
But, as he writes, “reality doesn’t care about tribes.”

The Trump admin is systematically firing immigration judges across the country for no reason other their above average grant rates.
The goal is to transform an imperfect system which aimed for fairness into a rubber stamp mill, leaving only the “deportation judges” they want.

BREAKING NYT:
The Trump admin just fired eight immigration judges in New York City.
All the judges were dismissed from the immigration offices at 26 Federal Plaza — a building that houses the NYC headquarters of ICE and has become the epicenter of migrant arrests in the city.

The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them
A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.
