Found this book at the library yesterday and was pleasantly surprised by how comprehensive it is about comorbidities. It even has images of examples of the Beighton score for hypermobility.

CNN partners with Kalshi, a gambling app that lets you wager on starvation in Gaza
The network will integrate betting odds for life-and-death issues into its coverage. What could possibly go wrong?

thus we cannot wait to take action to protect each other—our kids—personally and systemically. mask up. prevent the infections our health apparati are now intent to spread.
we’re in an extraordinary time that calls for extraordinary action. wearing a respirator may not feel extraordinary, but when masks are stigmatized if not criminalized, it becomes so.
it’s a helluva lot harder to #Resist without your health—preserve what you & your community have. mask up.

last night, someone on tiktok asked
me how wearing a mask is antifascist, so i answered: unfortunately, even passive, austere eugenics works faster if YOU participate.
so step up: stand out, mask up, and take care take care take care for yourself & others—before those who seek to harm stop you.
