My mother works in a nursing home in The Netherlands.

Her co-worker got #covid, which resulted in blood clots, a leg amputation and diabetes. Another co-worker stopped working due to #LongCovid after an ICU stay. Many more have to call in sick very often, my mother too.

Residents are starting to get strokes more often than before.

Most of the nursing personnel didn't get vaccinated because they believed it would make them infertile.

Nobody masks. Everyone there believes #covid19 is mild.

Dear E. Jean Carroll:

Trump only lashes out at those he's afraid of. He makes personal attacks when he has no other defense.

Keep fighting. The more he goes berserk, the more you know you're on the right path.

Kevin McCarthy and House Republicans want a 22% cut to veterans benefits -- but sure, go ahead and tell me again all about how the GOP is pro-America and pro-military.

So the same right wingers who screech about "free speech" are now banning/expelling legislators for exercising free speech IN A LEGISLATIVE CHAMBER, in Tennessee and now Montana, just because they don't like the content of their speech and, let's face it, their identities? Got it

I’m not ‘average’ in terms of health; I’m 68, have had Multiple Sclerosis over 40 years, have Hashimoto’s disease, kidney problems, and a rare bleeding disorder. I was always in a group at higher risk from COVID.

Please, when you’re out in public, if you’re feeling the least bit ‘off’, wear a mask. For people like me, for people like my son who is my caregiver & is somehow blaming himself for getting exposed at work. . .

Masks aren’t a 100% solution but they do make a huge difference for so many of us.

Please, wear a mask.

ICYMI: Federal Grand Jury Indicts Texas Man for Threatening to Kill Rep. Maxine Waters https://shinemycrown.com/federal-grand-jury-indicts-texas-man-for-threatening-to-kill-rep-maxine-waters/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon

I know I'm preaching to the choir, here, and it's a choir in an echo chamber, to boot, but I'll say this anyway: In my community, I often hear the word "woke" used pejoratively. This is by turns tiresome and eyeroll-inducing.

I wish that otherwise intelligent people would just stop it.

I am convinced, however, that it's not going to change any time soon.

"Under New York law, civil battery requires proof of unauthorized bodily contact which is offensive in nature and made with intent. Although the victim’s consent is a defense, Trump himself foreclosed the opportunity to raise it in this case." https://www.thebulwark.com/after-years-of-waiting-e-jean-carroll-testifies-on-trump-and-trauma/

GOP silencing another Democratic Representative is what Fascism looks like. First, GOP tried to silence Tenn Reps Jones and Pearson for speaking on gun violence. Now Montana GOP is silencing Rep. Zooey Zephyr for speaking on transgender rights. My article https://deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/gop-silencing-another-democratic

The Saudis are even worse than we thought: Declassified FBI documents have changed a big piece of the story about possible Saudi government help to the hijackers. Families of the victims want more information-: https://www.propublica.org/article/sept-11-family-lawsuit-saudi-spy?utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter&utm_campaign=socialflow

Zooey Zephyr deserves every bit as much attention as The Tennessee Three. Raise your voices! This is fascism.

Thank you for the gentle reminder @donmelton. I'm ashamed of myself for not posting beforehand.

@9to5Mac my goodness, who cares, just drop the place already and move onto something actually relevant.
