I have a friend who's an ICU nurse since before the pandemic & they have been wearing N95 masks throughout & have never gotten covid. I'm a huge believer in masking & their experience just confirms that it works. Mask up baby! 😷

Elle Faba Prefers Bears to Humans @ElleFabaIt's nice to know I'm not alone in still being cautious. Some of my in person friends are in medicine and it just boggles my mind that they're kinda no big deal about masking and all. And even when I've had Dr appts...I don't get it.02:10 AM - Jan 14, 2024

Democrats in Virginia have officially flipped the House of Delegates!
12:08 AM - Nov 08, 2023
Mike Feggans' victory makes it official. We have flipped the Virginia House of Delegates blue!
All the hours of hard work folks put in to win has paid off. That's how we win elections!
And we see once again, that right wing fascist policies are unpopular.

AP now has VA House officially with 50 Dems, so at worst it's a split.

To everyone who volunteered to GOTV, who worked for campaigns, who knocked on doors, got folks registered, made calls and texts and postcards:
Thank you all for the hard work you put in, and bless you for the harvest we've received.

YES, PENNSYLVANIA!
Taniel/Bolts Magazine:
“BIG RESULT: Dems win seat on Pennsylvania supreme court.
This means they'll keep a 5-2 majority on the court, and this will be important buffer for them heading into court battles over mail-voting & election certification next year.”

Covid doesn't care about announcements, declarations, policies or what we are or are not tired of. Covid's only focus is to adapt to survive and to do so it must spread. The question is, what are WE going to do? Protect yourself and others. Mask in public indoor and crowded spaces, #CovidIsSurging

While giving DeSantis more air time. It doesn't matter who wins. Did no one learn a damn thing from 2016 or 2020? Jfc

My other half and I are at lunch and we've been chatting with the most delightful 4 year old at the next table. I said goodbye as the family got up to leave and the kid looks right at me to say "You haven't seen the last of me!" ❤️

OMG! You are ME!!!
Don’t cook - waste of time - all those hours of cutting, measuring, stirring- for a 15min swallowing time! Always plan trips so I am travelling efficiently. Avoid people if I can - no shopping centres - fairs (except on the first/last day if I have to go.) #sisters !

Thank you for reaching out - I have never had a quiet brain - the whole idea of NOT actively thinking, planning, working out, learning, listening to.... is putting me in a most unfamiliar place! I am going to try 1 hour a day if I can.

Thank you for that - decided to follow you! My first real try at an hour of #BetaBrain was looking at the sea pounding into shore. Called a girlfriend and laughed with her for 45 mins. It was lovely.

With every #edit , including cuts and new material, I know this book is getting better and better. It makes me more determined to invest in the further edits and other things to make this what I hope it can be. The process reinforces the need for #CreativeCollaboration .

Part 2 of my answer to @Marmel ’s question, #HowToUseThisPlatform to organize not be simply outraged. A #StrategySunday with (yay!] ALT text.
Gotta understand the strengths and weaknesses of a social media platform. This part is about downsides to work around.

Q3: what are drawbacks/weaknesses to organizing on social media?
– Fragmentation; everyone goes own way
– SQUIRREL! Short attention span (it’s SO 10 minutes ago)
– surveillance (who else is here, watching?)
– Different locales have different needs
(Example: a red area in a blue state versus blue dots in red states have different requirements. People from outside the area say, “no, what YOU guys need to do is [X] which is how we’re doing it here.” No, just no. Let locals lead.)
– Age group of people on Spoutible (according to that survey) skews to Boomers & Gen X. Need to know our place, respect others, let them lead, versus telling what to do.
Spell double doesn’t have lists or robust search (by time period, by account), so we need to Hashtag Well.
