For all my LA friends, let me share my 10 years of FL hurricane experience with you. 🧵 1. If you’re leaving, LEAVE NOW. Sunday or later is too late. 2. If you’re not leaving… - Get non-perishable food items, a non-electric cooking device, and a cooler to fill with ice 1/5

I’m so glad this is doing numbers and I hope it helps! I just want to remind everyone that even if #HurricaneHilary downgrades to a tropical storm… THE DESERT IS NOT BUILT TO GET RAIN LIKE THIS!!! There WILL be flooding, power outages, and probably mudslides. Stay alert! 🙏🏼

One of my best friends’ lost their mom last night. After beating cancer last year, she went in for routine surgery that went septic, causing her to need to stay longer in the hospital. The hospital gave her #COVID before sending her home untested to her family. Now she’s dead.

THIS is why one-way “individual choice” masking policy is genocidal bullshit. Alice can’t wear a respirator & relies on others to mask to keep her safe. She is risking her life right now for necessary care because US healthcare is more concerned about profits than doing no harm.

I was a professional musician and actor for 25 years. This ongoing pandemic has basically ensured I’ll never perform again, as no one but me seems to care that none of us die while doing it. My spouse, also a musician, has given up performing to keep me safe. It’s depressing.

My spouse wore a P100 or N95 all day every day, had 3 HEPAs running in his classroom at all times, taught outside, and provided KN95 and N95 masks for students (sadly few wore them). He made it out of a year teaching in NYC without catching COVID from them & lessened the spread!

Also, the 2 months at home plus 1 year of masking you did then is not the reason you’re so sick now, three years later. It’s because you’re not wearing a mask now and keep reinfecting yourself with #COVID19 (SARS2). All in the name of “normalcy” and for capitalism. #MaskUp 😷

If any of them become Covid conscious and also come to understand how their behavior has been harmful (and has sacrificed me & millions like me) and are willing to be accountable & repair harm they directly contributed to, I’m open to moving forward w them again. Otherwise, no.

As someone physically and emotionally abused for decades by a religious adult male in a heterosexual marriage (my father), and being a queer person who has not abused anyone with many queer friends who are not abusers, I approve this message.

My spouse who wore a P100 or N95 at ALL times outside of our apartment only took sick days from teaching last year due to being burnt out from covering so much for all of the unmasked teachers who were out sick.

All school boards would need to do to see how effective masks have been is to check attendance rates for teachers that mask consistently. Compare the number of sick days taken by those people vs all teachers in aggregate. Especially during surges.

As we keep framing it for my grandparents (and others over like 50 who aren't online): What if you were able to watch the My Lai Massacre in Vietnam live from Vietnamese journalists? Would your opinion on the war and the US government have been vastly different then?

There’s been a lot of elitist & ageist talk mocking the “Tik Tok Education” of young ppl today. But let’s be clear: Due to social media, youth are light years more informed than their parents at their same age AND now. Gatekeepers are just mad their lies can be debunked now.

They take up multiple blocks here near our local precinct with illegal parking, blocking curb cuts, and leaving totaled/broken vehicles on the street and sidewalk for months at a time. Our block is filled with garbage, and it’s all because of #NYPD . #ACAB #DefundThePolice

I know there are a bunch of conspiracies on this. Mine is that she had a massive stroke post-SARS2 infection and while she is alive and stable, she is not up to The Firm’s “beauty standards,” so they are Ugly Laws-style hiding her away until she is “acceptable” to show again.
