Wenn ihr auf Dauermedikation angewiesen seid, ist dieses Wochenende der richtige Zeitpunkt, die vorhandenen Medikamente zu zählen und zu planen, welche Rezepte ihr nächste Woche noch holen müsst! Die Feiertage stehen vor der Tür, viele Arztpraxen sind nicht besetzt!

Fahrplanwechsel der DB kappt einfach meine Direktverbindung zur Arbeit. Danke für nichts.

I tried to find a photo of Christopher Plummer riding a bike, and instead I found this photo of a guy named Chris who's a plumber, which is even better.

friendly reminder that you didn't waste your year. any moments of happiness or comfort. any small accomplishments, they all matter. this has been a really hard year, and simply surviving is something to be proud of.

Wir schauen jetzt einen Film auf Netflix und morgen backen wir Plätzchen. Also wir tun jetzt einfach mal so als wäre da draußen nicht so viel los.

Getting blocked by Swiftie accounts for defending Taylor Swift, lol.

People seem to not have any reading comprehension skills tonight.

This is exactly what happens when a novel seasonal influenza strain meets a population with Covid-induced immune dysregulation; it's not 'like Covid again', it's the ongoing and continuous effects of Covid.

Flu: It is like Covid again, says principal as 170 pupils sick
Confirmed flu cases among adults and children across Northern Ireland have more than trebled in the last two weeks.

If you wanna say something bad about Taylor Swift and her Eras Tour Documentary, please make sure it’s at least factual.

they often say “everyone’s fine with your disability until it affects you”

in my experience, it’s far more often “everyone’s fine with your disability until it affects THEM”

Flu and Covid are both surging.

If you want to stay healthy for the holidays, wear a mask! Ideally a well fitted respirator like an N95.

A layered approach works best.

Get your boosters (if you can!), mask up, clean and ventilate the air and stay home when sick.

Masking is community care.

people are upset that “gen z” people are buying tickets to see the backstreet boys because “they are far too young to know this band”.

I was born in 1996, zillenial. The radio in the car played Larger Than Life and Shape of my Heart none stop when my mum dropped me off at kindergarten.

Freund:innen wollen heute Abend auf den Weihnachtsmarkt. Irgendwie hätte ich auch Lust auf ne Tasse Kinderpunsch und Kräppelchen. Aber Freitagabend nach 20 Uhr… idk. 🙃

Everyone is talking about how bad the flu is.

Media & healthcare facilities are pleading with people to get their flu shot.

To stay home when sick.

To wash their hands.

Very few are recommending masks. When we had mask mandates we eliminated an entire flu strain.

Mask up!

I work at the university right now. I utterly miss working at the hospital.

I guess I chose the right profession but the wrong job. 🥲

Ich klingle bei Nachbarin, die lt. Zustellbenachrichtigung ein Paket für mich angenommen hat.

Problem: die Nachbarin hat kein Paket für mich angenommen.

Und ja, es ist eine vertrauenswürdige Nachbarin mit der wir öfter Kontakt haben.

Fucking hell DHL.

Habe spontan ein The Lottery Winners Ticket für Leipzig HEUTE ABEND zu verschenken. Ich schaffe den Weg ans andere Ende der Stadt heute Abend nicht mehr.

Ist ein Print-@-Home Ticket, die PDF Datei kann ich einfach weiterleiten.

Bitte und gerne teilen. Einlass beginnt 19 Uhr.

I sometimes envy people with bodies that can be helped and healed at the hospital.
“If it were really that bad you would be in hospital!”

People say this to disabled folks all the time

They don’t realize that if we went to the hospital for every flare, we would live there

They don’t realize how dangerous hospital settings can be

They don’t realize how little help is available

AI automation =/= AI generation. the scripts to automatically transcribe voice to text or whether your party character prioritizes Attack or Defense isn't the same as algorithms generating randomized results out of an amalgamation of existing data. conflating them is intentionally misleading.

all I want for Christmas is:
- working joints
- working connective tissue
- working immune system
- working lungs
- …
(guys, I know you are all doing your best and I appreciate it but you still suck at it)

I might as well just with for that pony again I didn’t get like 10 times straight.
