It’s interesting how diseases rip through schools at incredible speeds despite being in an arguably modern, clean(ish) environment. I wonder if it has something to do with the whole “you need a doctor’s note to excuse your absence of even one day” combined with the average price of going to a doctor, the lack of education on things like “you’re still contagious even after the fever goes away”, and the overwhelming message of “if you don’t struggle through it, you’re a failure!”

whenever i see a post about someone wondering how an  asexual and a sexual can be in a healthy relationship there’s always someone being applauded for saying well asexuals can have sex too or just because someone’s asexual doesn’t mean they won’t have sex but i have never, not once, EVER seen someone say well hey, some sexuals don’t have sex. you can have a full relationship without sex. just throwing it out there

when you have cfs they should give you a button you can press and fall asleep instantly so you can go to sleep when you’re fatigued instead of lying in bed stressed

By only masking at protests, you're helping the centrists back mast bans. Mask everywhere. Mask at work, at the store, at pride. Everywhere!

if you’re a baby trans and you haven’t started smoking cigarettes or vaping yet don’t. it’s actually not that hot or interesting. It will just cause you ungodly frustrations and suffering and cost you a bunch of money and be next to impossible to quit

it’s crazy how different you get treated in a mask but what really gets me is that when people ask why I’m masking, I’ve stopped saying I’m immunodeficient and started saying I have an immunodeficient family member at home. I am not exaggerating when I tell you this has 100% improved every single encounter I’ve had with anti-maskers. i’m not exaggerating in the slightest.
i used to tell people i’m immunodeficient and they’d ask invasive questions about my diagnosis, whether my parents kept my childhood overly sterile, whether I was vaccinated as a child (with the implication that it would have been bad if I were).
Now that I say I have an immunodeficient family member at home, people smile knowingly and say, “oh, well you do what you have to do,” and “my mom went through chemo. I remember how hard it was to do all the precautions” and “that’s so kind of you.”
if i tell someone i mask because i’m disabled, i’m assumed to be the weak link in our society, a burden to my family.
if i tell someone i mask to protect a disabled family member, i become the burdened, compassionate caretaker deserving of sympathy. how sad that i must limit myself to protect someone i love. how heroic that i choose to do so.

Saw a post about how halal and kosher meat will likely be the only reliably safe options in the US because their safety and cleanliness standards aren't dictated by what's the barest legal minimum that government food safety regulations demand.
So you're like 5 years away from "ever notice how the musulmans and jews never get sick from bad meat? clearly this is proof that they are poisoning us" right now.

Whenever I tell people I've been composing music on my phone they ask "oh, like with AI?"
And it's like no. Honestly, it would probably sound better if I did, but I'm trying to learn how music words and AI can't teach me that. Sure, AI CAN currently write better music than me, because I never took music theory and still have no idea what I'm doing, but when I create a shitty little unimpressive piece it's because I have put the notes down. Because I learned what chords go together and what notes make up chords and what a bass line is, and even if it still sounds like shit, or is simple or derivative, it's still something I wrote, and each time I try to put a piece together, I'm learning more.
Let yourself learn.
Tumblr media
Honestly, y'all, I'm begging you. Take the time to think and learn for yourself. Even if it's just something casual like knitting or cooking. Exercise your brain. It's important.

All these takes on loneliness epidemics fail to take into account the millions dying and becoming disabled from covid and covid fallout. The loneliness is real. The world is a lonelier place with excess deaths and millions disappearing from public life because they cannot afford to get worse, or cannot afford to use their energy on anything other than surviving. Any attempt at fixing the problem is meaningless if it does not even acknowledge that. Our culture's aversion to acknowledging death and grieving was a problem before this pandemic started. Now it's reached farcical proportions.
