Latino farmworkers face high rates of long COVID but barriers delay diagnosis SEATTLE – The first time Dr. Anita Chopra had a long COVID patient, she cried.

“These patients are working and sometimes the only working member in the family, so they feel like they have to keep on working."

disease is a tool the fascist to weaken both internal and external dissent.

The status page for mastodon.social, one of the larger Fediverse servers, says that the site is experiencing a DDoS attack, just days after BlueSky was also reportedly attacked.

It feels as if someone doesn't really like the idea of social media sites friendly to opinions other than their own.

those of us at @maskblocla.bsky.social were so grateful for their camaraderie in getting hundreds of thousands of masks out to our community during the fires in jan 2025. this space has been a truly special node in community’s ability to come together in a big city.

My mangum opus is finally done. Three days it took me, but here it is.

My 2026 Currency Tier List.
Any new changes shall be made the following year.

Guys, I know the world is shit, but I would like a moment to focus the light on one thing in particular. Age verification tech laws are becoming more prolific and now there's a bill in Congress to require age verification at the OS level. This is horrible for privacy and it doesn't protect children.

It always has been. We knew it from the start. Countless lives continue to be lost needlessly from the choice to ignore this fact.

Look… I’m all for concerts to motivate folks, but Kamala Harris literally had Taylor Swift concerts WITH friendship bracelets, and white folks still voted for the other guy. So miss me on the analysis that these concert type rallies will change behavior. They absolutely may not… 😒❤️‍🩹

Pero la peor parte es que en lugar de detenernos a procesar todo eso decidimos aventarlo abajo de la cama. Nunca hubo una oportunidad de procesar el trauma colectivo y el hecho de que el mundo es un lugar distinto al que existía antes de que pasara todo eso. Sólo hay negación y fingir que nada pasó.

Solamente con el impacto que los primeros dos años de pandemia tuvieron nos basta y nos sobra para un par de décadas de la economía global desacelerándose: secuelas de salud por infecciones, trauma de haber sobrevivido a un desastre natural, duelo por las personas que fallecieron durante, etc.

Mi opinión controversial es que nunca nos recuperamos realmente de la pandemia.

No sólo por el hecho de que el covid sigue circulando, pero incluso si sí se hubiera acabado: la clase trabajadora sigue y seguirá lidiando con nuevas enfermedades crónicas que nadie sabe cómo atender o tratar

Prior to tonight's game, Carter Bryant met with members of the California School for the Deaf, Riverside 👏

Bryant is a GODA (grandchild of deaf adults) who grew up in a household that spoke American Sign Language (ASL).

Airbnbs Are Eating Up This Puerto Rico Island Municipality

Short-term rentals have increased prices and taken over residences in Culebra, analysis shows

Already losing those and we are not independent yet lol

Anything but the PR statehood bit. PR statehood movement is full of fascists.

Side note: one thing that I keep running into is that people keep finding this modlist super useful to filter out bad opinion off their timelines.

And that is very humbling. Maintaining this list has been hard work. I appreciate you all :)

I am not gonna do the work for you. And our existence is not debatable.

If you cannot understand those two things, we have nothing to talk about.

We've seen your human rights framing of annexation. We've also seen you ignore the US government's tight grip on our economy (like the Jones Act and PROMESA), our politics (sponsoring candidates from non-independence parties, mass surveillance on pro-independence and yes, even murders outright).

PSA: I used to extend grace to Americans talking about Puerto Rico's status as a democratic affair.

What I am now seeing here on Bluesky is Americans using a potential democratic process against those who do not support statehood.

So from now on, the modlist I manage will not be as lenient.

people who say puerto rico needs to be a state need to do some research and also shut the fuck up
