Introduction post!
I'm Prower, probably wherever you have a local one. I am disabled since 2014 with ME/CFS, and in between dealing with that I fill my time with crafts, raising my kid, petting my dogs, and video games when my cognition allows.

Tumbler Ridge is a small planned resource community, a winding 90 minute drive from the nearest city of at least 10,000 people.
A massive number of people are going to descend there tomorrow.
May those that arrive have respect and grace for the unimaginable grief.

I spent a long time trying to figure out what to do with my Harry Potter books, because just dumping them in a little free library felt wrong. So I mailed them to this artist who was turning them into portraits of murdered trans women

"Study shows impaired energy metabolism in the brains of people with post-COVID"
Brain fog, poor concentration and slowed thinking in Long COVID patients are linked to altered brain energy metabolism, with MRI studies showing changes that correlate with worse cognitive test performance.

FYI, ICE activity this morning in Bellevue on 148th Ave NE and NE 116th near Robinswood. City of Bellevue posted about it, comments identified the location, they left a car/van in the road. A nearby school sent out a message after the fact.
Make sure your place of work & school has a plan.
