pray for me. I dyed my hair last night & it's a few shades off in a way I absolutely hate. but it's still an interesting color and my nice mostly-queer friends whose cuddle party I'm going to tonight will be effusive. and I have to say "thank you" instead of "behold not my form"

#rambl #i will only occupy rooms with yellow lighting from now on. thanks #god i've never felt like this about my hair before. i've been dyeing it for years and whenever there's a mistake i'm like 'still looks nice #when you get into the really pale variants (1) small inputs delta big output delta (2) imo east asians don't look very good #(i am forging on regardless because 'having silver hair once in my life' is more important to me than 'looking good') #but. crucially. i do not have silver hair.

Just a reminder we are still in a pandemic... Catching Covid 3 times like it’s the flu is no joke, vaccinated or not.  You can still DIE.  Wear your fucking masks.  Keep fucking around and you will find out.

re: your tags on that twitter screenshot - yeah it is a terf thing, weirdly. there's a small, very online paranoid conspiracy that huge swathes of people are secretly trans, that's determined by the sort of clocking phrenology depicted in that tweet. it's not about pretty men being unmanly, it's that they believe they are surrounded by 'infiltrators'. transphobia reflavoured lizard people stuff.

I stand corrected! also wow, gross!!!

Covid deaths are still at an average of 500 a day in the United States. 500.

The feds are ending emergency coverage in a couple of months which means it will be an insurance free for all. Get boosted now. Order your at home tests now. KEEP WEARING A MASK.

364 days ago I went to bed exhausted after a 15-hour drive home from vacation, with sniffles and a cough. And woke up testing positive to the worst COVID I’ve gotten yet. Delta variant. 24 days of coughing, vomiting, multiple hospital trips, inhalers and oxygen masks, sleeping in the floor of the bathroom because I was too weak to crawl, and now the multiple long-haul post COVID symptoms.

I remember this like it was yesterday. My therapist tells me the PTSD can linger for years, especially with every reoccurrence of COVID. And she’s right. The flashbacks are the worst some nights. The moments of being scared of just a sneeze or just a cough. The anxiety of being told of another exposure. It’s all there to this day. I feel like it was just yesterday. But it wasn’t.

I’m one of the lucky ones. While my long haul COVID can get really bad in stressful situations, at least I’m not 6-feet under like the unfortunate ones. At least I’m conscious, can breathe [mostly] on my own. At least I can function most days.

/tdlr One year marks me getting the delta variant of COVID and 24 days of nonstop illness.

To the people following my page or anyone who just happened upon it, just know I’m at a very fragile point in my life.

After having Covid delta my mind hasn’t been the same. I try to do my best but its not easy. So please, please when you come to this page keep in mind what I have asked not to talk about. Specific topics (like my latest post) I hold onto things much longer and get far more emotional about things. People are scary I’m not going to lie. So I find comfort in characters that I can related to. Ones I see myself in. I don’t play games when it comes to stories or how characters are. If a character is stated to be a certain way. Why change it. That’s why I felt infuriated when people take characters that are very much like me and try to change them. @skrankku @navolot @shellderbeast @cowcat44​​ @thepastelpeach​

Daily Comic Journal: November 15, 2021: "Branding!"

Even though there’s this new strain of the Covid virus, what a difference a year makes! Last November people were staying at home, masked when they did leave their homes and everyone was getting prepared for a lonely Thanksgiving. Now, thanks to the vaccines it doesn’t feel as dire and scary. Yes, even with the Delta Force bursting through! Still would like a booster shot though.

Navigating the Surge: Understanding the Recent Rise in COVID-19 Cases and Hospitalizations

The emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic in late 2019 marked the onset of a complex and ever-evolving global crisis. Recent months have witnessed a troubling upswing in COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations across various regions of the world. This surge has been propelled by the rapid proliferation of the Delta variant, an extremely transmissible strain of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, along with an array…

I don’t know if any other long COVID folk might know what I’m talking about, I just need to stamp my foot at the universe for a minute. I have degenerative eye issues, I get my eyes dilated often. The thing I hate MOST is that when they put in the eye drops, I can taste them. It’s like an awful metallic burn in the very back of my throat. When I had covid (over a year ago) and lost my taste and smell, the first thing to come back was that taste. I wasn’t using any eye drops at the time, but I could feel them at the back of my throat. Eyedrop sinuses. Now I still get them sometimes. I hate it so much.

Every time I go to the store I lean on a cart like it’s a lifeline. I sit down on cracked linoleum floors in aisles when I can’t stand. My heart rate jumps around like it’s trying to write a stats test. All of that I can accommodate. I can’t fix my brain tasting something that isn’t there. It’s not the end of the world. It’s just so icky.

what’s really ironic about the “just let everyone get infected w covid!! herd immunity!!” arguments now is that letting the virus run rampant through the world has actually achieved the opposite: everyone may get infected, but then they’ll just keep getting infected. delta infections didn’t protect against the original omicron variant. omicron BA.1 doesn’t protect you against BA.2.12.1. none of them really protect you against BA.4 and BA.5. mass infection is not going to create mass immunity, it just means that with every infection you’re rolling the dice on what this unpredictable and very creative virus is going to do to you

#play stupid games (encourage mass infection) win stupid prizes (mass infection... w indefinite reruns)!!! #covidposting at work again bc it really never changes (except for the worse) #don't even get me started on the ppl who originally were just lambasting the herd immunity crowd but now seem totally fine w it #bc 'vAcCiNEs pRoTeCt aGaiNsT sEveRe dIsEaSE' well maybe i don't want to take that risk!! #maybe i don't want to see what an infection will do to me! but thanks for fucking around so that i can find out :// #coronavirus #covid19 #public health #skravler
