First Tinu and now Alice Wong. 💔 I learned about Alice Wong through Tinu, and because of them, I was influenced to try and advocate for disability more before I even had long cov¡d. A sad day for many. RIP 🕊

Getting dark at 5 p.m. is not good for anyone's mental health.
If you are a person with a rotten heart and brain who thinks that people only deserve their humanity, food, and existence depending on their politics, class status, race, sexual orientation, ethnicity, nationality, religion, language, or legal status on stolen land, please unkindly block me and have the day you deserve.

About 30 Puerto Rican activists and allies occupied the Statue of Liberty on October 25, 1977, to protest Borikén's colonial status and demanded the release of political prisoners. They draped a PR flag from the statue's head. Viva Puerto Rico Libre! 🇵🇷
About 30 Puerto Rican activists and allies occupied the Statue of Liberty on October 25, 1977, to protest Borikén's colonial status and demanded the release of political prisoners. They draped a PR flag from the statue's head. They called for the release of fellow Nationalist Movement members imprisoned since 1954. President Carter commuted their sentences in 1979. The protest was a powerful symbol in the fight for Puerto Rican independence. Viva Puerto Rico Libre! 🇵🇷

Zay has been in and out of the hospital and UCC with LC complications. Spent yesterday with a fever and currently still with fatigue and pain. 51 would at least cover today due by noon to stay housed. Any aid is appreciated, including amplifying. Main details below.

Zay has been in and out of the hospital and urgent care with long cov¡d complications and has been trying to reach a week or two since their hospital discharge to stay sheltered, food, and meds copay. (They just had another rough couple of days and are lucky to be here.) 450 weekly rate is the cheapest vs the 80 daily rate. 51 would at least cover today due by noon to remain hauzed. Any aid is greatly appreciated, including amplifying. C@sh App & V3nmo: ZayCrescendo P@yPal: Zay88

Another sad, routine day in Amerikkka. Another church mass shooting, this time in my home state of Michigan, in Grand Blanc. Too close to home. 1 unalived and 9 injured. The shooter drove his pickup into the church, then opened fire and lit it on fire. 🧵 1/2 (next)

The shooter drove his pickup into the church, then opened fire and lit it on fire. Tom Barrett, a Republican congressional representative from Grand Blanc, Michigan, has already received more than $18,000 in NRA backing. He has an A+ rating and opposes background checks. Is it still not about the guns?

I have long covid. Many have long covid. We still have covid. We’re still struggling to walk and breathe. Stop the delusion. #DisabilityPrideMonth Art by: @doodlesbycharlie.bsky.social
Panel 1: The first panel of a black and white doodled comic. A trapezoid character is standing next to a circle character. The circle is wearing a mask and holding up a tiny Disability Pride flag. The trapezoid points and asks “What flag is that?”. The circle responds “Disability Pride!” Panel 2: The trapezoid smiles and says “Cool! Can I have one?”. The masked circle hands them the flag and a face mask and says “Sure! Here’s a mask too.” Panel 3: The trapezoid is now holding the Disability Justice flag up high but did not take the mask. They say “I don’t need one. I’m not high risk.” The circle, holding the extra mask low to the ground, looks at the trapezoid and says “But anyone can be disabled by a virus.” Panel 4: The trapezoid puts their hand on their hip, waves the Disability Pride flag up higher, and says “I’ve had Covid 4 times and I’m still out here!”. The masked circle looks towards us, the audience, with a blank stare. They’re still holding on to the spare mask. Made by doodlesbycharlie 2025.

Caribbean Heritage Month 🌎
As Caribbean Heritage Month comes to an end, I would like to highlight the great historical contributions made to the same country that hates us all, with roots in the countries that make up the Caribbean subregion of the Americas. I want to send a lot of peace and love to all my Caribbeans who are being targeted by the inhumane kidnappings.

Zay has been discharged for two weeks, and dealing with incredibly difficult Long Cov¡d complications. They have a room for tonight but 80 is due by the morning. Temp h0using is 80/day or 450/week, which is ideal. They have to rest to heal, as well as to afford food. Please amplify, thanks.
Zay has been discharged for two weeks, and they’ve received very scant community care as well as dealing with incredibly difficult Long Cov¡d complications. They have a room for tonight but 80.00 is due by tomorrow morning to stay inside. Temp h0using is 80/day or 450/week, which is ideal. Being indoors is crucial to Zay’s recovery! They have to rest to heal, as well as to afford food. Please show up in any way you can. Every little bit counts. Telling others or circulating this graphic goes a long way, as well. Please amplify, thanks.

Zay was discharged from another long-covid hospital round, and is seeking aid for housing. 80 is required. 450 would cover a week. Any aid is appreciated. Please amplify!

Question for engagement: What do you do to find joy?
Zay is a queer person who is chronically ill due to long cov¡d and dealing with h0uselessness. They were previously in the hosp¡tal for 23 days, have been in and out since with little to no care, and just got discharged again after a week, and are urgently seeking community care. The overall goal is a 450.00 weekly rate, which is the lowest option when paid in full. If not, the daily rate is more, which is 80.00. Zay is aiming to raise enough for a week or even longer if possible so they can stay indoors and rest to heal, and be able to get food. I implore you to please show up for Zay. Do what you can for them. Every little bit truly counts and is appreciated.

Still hospitalized. Trying to get covered with housing when discharged. Please read details in graphic, and please circulate with community. Much appreciated!
Zay is a queer person who is chronically ill due to long Cov¡d struggling with extreme complications and h0uselessness. They have been in and out of the hosp¡tal dealing with Long Cov¡d for months with little to no care. They are now in the hosp¡tal again and are still being ignored and can’t properly rest unless we all show up. The daily fee for a room is 80.00, and the weekly rate is 450.00, which is the most affordable option when paid in full. Can we make sure they have h0using when they get out of the hosp¡tal? I implore you to please show up for Zay. Do what you can for them. Read to learn how you can be there. Every little bit truly counts.

Let’s put community care in action by preventing a long c0v¡d chronically ill human from getting hospitalized again by keeping him indoors. Please read important info in the graphic, and circulate with the community.

I at least could use 80.00 for h0using. All blessings are greatly appreciated.
Zay is a queer person who is chronically ill due to long c0vid, and struggling with extreme complications and h0uselessness. They were previously hospitalized for 23 days with three URls after catching c0vid and are still in and out of the hospital and still unable to receive the assistance needed. They’re currently short 80.00 to stay housed, but any extra would go towards covering another day, food, and necessities. Every contribution helps, including reposts. The daily fee for a room is 80.00, and the weekly rate is 450.00, which is the most affordable option when paid in full. Please show up for them by circulating this post and sending all the good vibes. Grateful for all the blessings!
