Why am I the one with memory issues, yet I keep having to remind people about my brain and what goddamn #LongCovid has done???

Solidarity to those who are the caregivers, whether that's taking care of elderly, disabled, kids, even if (maybe especially??) if that care is tech.

I hear you. I see you. I am you.

#CovidIsNotOver #Covid

#MaskUP & Stay Safe!!

FINALLY! I wish more would get over here.

"Nature reached out to over 170,000 scientists who were, or still are, users;

nearly 9,200 responded.

More than half reported that they have reduced the time they spend on the platform in the past six months &

just under 7% have stopped using it altogether.

Roughly 46% have joined other social-media platforms, such as Mastodon, Bluesky, Threads & TikTok."

HEAD'S UP #SEATTLE #PNW

We're in a #Covid #Surge or #Wave or whatever you want to call it.

Remember, #Vaccinated or #unvaccinated

1. It weakens your immune system

2. You can catch it again (see #1)

3. The more times you get it the higher chance of worse reinfection and/or #LongCovid

#MaskUp & PLEASE STAY SAFE OUT THERE!
