We are going to surpass the civilian death number of the Iraq war soon. In 6 months. Lord have mercy.

Watercolor, gouache, pencils, and finger painting with gesso. On paper.

I'm disappointed by Biden on walking back his "red line" statements in this interview. He won't stop supplying bombs to Israel. Ever.

This is why we need to make some changes, because no one is listening and our voices don't matter. At all. We should have stood up for better candidates and campaigns decades ago but we all got sucked into the lesser of two evils early on.

Now our choices are garbage.

I don't have an answer to this because America can't even stand up to protecting ourselves from a virus, let alone what's going to result in a few years from this.

"I want to eat in restaurants but my immune-compromised husband is being a buzzkill"

Hoo boy, this article is pretty disgusting:

I'm getting back into shape! It's been hard to get motivated with the on-again off-again rain but I'm 2 months into the new meds, and my body is enjoying moving!

Sushirritos are sushi in a form factor which makes sushi available to consumers who would o/w find them too fiddly or dainty to handle. It’s the oxo good grip of nigiri.

That study regarding how we all eat a credit card's worth of micro plastic EVERY WEEK just by using regular products had me horrified but then laughing. Because at this point that's all I got! 🤣😭🥴

Beautiful day in Sonoma County!

I feel a deep amount of grief that we, Americans, can't seem to stop slaughtering people.

If your high risk or disabled friends don't want to hang out with you, it's probably because of them wanting to stay safe from COVID.

Or, you could just be a jerk.

I think we need a national strike. Like, all of you reading this strike.

Got a lovely walk in just now for #silentsunday. #sonomacounty #springlake

Bare branch trees, green grasses, and stormy skies with the low sun horizon peeking through.
Green grass, rocks, a large puddle reflecting the sky. Bare trees, low sun shining at the horizon level. Storm coming in again.

On a different social media today, I was talking to newly C-virus disabled people, because they are angry about wasting 4 years of their lives waiting for people to give a shit.

I explained that they are not at fault for anything, either for "wasting" time (it's not wasted) or for failing to get the ableds to care (they did not fail).

This is something I've learned over 2 decades. There is no wrong or right in any of this. Do what you need to do, get angry when you want to, organize when you can, and rest often. But if I had one piece of advice it's this: don't expect people to care. Because they won't. Even after they get disabled themselves, many won't. Especially in America.

We have to fight hard. Often. I know it's not easy when one is disabled but that's where the buddy system comes in, you trade off with others when you run out of spoons.

Stop worrying about offending people too, by advocating for disabled rights and getting vocal.

I want my 2019 life back. And I want the world to be safe. But both of those keep getting farther away thanks to the inaction of public health agencies. As the CDC weakens guidelines, it makes me LESS able to go out and enjoy life, because the CDC's actions increase the risks. With the mainstream media waking up about Long #COVID19 and the chronic dangers of repeat infections, I thought maybe we'd see more caution. Instead, my feelings of safety and normality are further away than ever.

Ok the SF Bay area North Bay (Sonoma and Marin) has spiked incredibly high with Covid. Windsor and Novato are over 1000 PPMV via Wastewater data. (Santa Rosa hasn't updated since Valentine's Day but Windsor is just up the road from me.)

This is very bad, do not go into public places if you can avoid it, work from home if you can. Mask up everywhere. #sonomacounty #marincounty

Can anyone suggest entry level jobs that don't require you to work with the public? We're trying to help my daughter find something that wont burn her out.

We've thought of...

Data entry.
Stock.
Factory.

Just looking for more search suggestions. Thanks.

I have a birthday coming up. My 4th pandemic birthday. I think I need to have a C-cautious outdoor get together. My outdoor living room, AKA the pool, has a large tabled area and its own bathrooms. In my complex. It doesn't open for swimming until May 1st so this has been my socializing at home area.

This year I may invite more folks than usual but they will all be C-cautious only.

Having less pain is making it possible to plan a longer drive out to the east bay to outdoor visit a friend. 💯

My local paper republished a piece from NY Times about Long Covid. 👍🏼

Hey San Francisco!

So, does anyone know if there is a museum in the Bay Area that exhibits items from the 1915 Pan Pacific world fair? I have an original sculpture from there, an actual paper mache monstrous.
