at the risk of being overly sincere on this platform, jaheira's quote "perhaps it is not heroes we need- only people who are willing to try" is a huge inspiration to me in organizing and activism.
there is SOMETHING you can do in this moment to help your neighbor.

I think a lot of us get hope wrong. Hope, I do not believe, is an emotion. In fact, hope makes space for lots of emotions to exist alongside it. You can DO hope scared, angry, sad etc...
Hope doesn't find us. We make hope through action and struggle. It's a practice of living and is re-made daily.

COVID-19 levels are increasing across most of the U.S. as of late December. But flu is overshadowing COVID-19 in healthcare system impacts and headlines.
For both viruses, similar precautions (like high-quality masks and improving air quality) work to reduce your risk of infection. bit.ly/3LhxKd2

Here's a really easy New Year's Resolution:
If you're sick with something contagious, you will stay home if your circumstances allow.
If you can't stay home, you will mask around others until there is no possibility you are contagious.
By making these choices, you will literally save lives.

BLUF: Press is talking about "Super Flu" bc this year's dominant strain isn't a great match to the vaccine. Get vax'd anyway (consider the high-dose vax), wear a mask (protects against airborne pathogens), and have a testing + treatment strategy ahead of time because viral replication is exponential

I don’t want a society where it’s easier to be sick and get a meeting about getting help for ending your life than it is to get a meeting to get help to stay in your home, find a therapist or get healthcare. (This seems to be happening in Canada with MAiD)

whatever you think of Spanberger, the fact that her opponent ran a campaign based almost entirely on transphobia and is on track to eat shit in the biggest blowout the state has seen since 2009 is unambiguously a huge win
Earle-Sears ran what felt like 12 billion ads about how much she hated trans kids and I didn’t hear a single pundit say she should stick to real issues that affect real people.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Democrat Abigail Spanberger wins Virginia governor’s race.

If you gave up masking long ago, you can start anytime. “But none of my friends do.” Think back: did some of your friends “just disappear” in 2021 and stop planning hang outs with you?

I was sent this by a Georgian this morning. 2025 premiums vs 2026 premiums for someone making $65k a year.
Republicans in Washington did this.
This is what I'm fighting to stop. This is what’s at stake in this shutdown fight.

I hate to break it to y'all (no I don't) a lot of 70 year old men are autistic, they just disguise it as being "hard working" "an expert" or "religious"
RFK Jr: I've never seen a case of full-blown autism in a 70-year-old man. You're only seeing it in the kids. It's an epidemic.
