A few thoughts about today's protests:

1) The April 5 Hands Off day of action clearly ranks as one of the very largest mobilizations in U.S. history, by two different measures:

The Treasury Department right now. People are turning out against Musk and DOGE staging a takeover of the Treasury’s payment system. This crowd is big. The whole block is packed. “Lock him up,” everyone yells.

Your local government isn't ready to evacuate disabled people California's fire-prone counties left people to die. Other communities don't have to.

It’s almost always an attempted gotcha when someone says “some people can’t mask”

The thing is - that’s exactly why everyone who CAN mask, should mask.

It’s not a gotcha - it reinforces our point

We need to stop relying on the compassion of individuals but instead build compassionate systems.

When People Say “We Have Made It Through Worse Before”
Listen
all I hear is the wind slapping against all the gravestones
of those who did not make it, those who did not
survive to see the confetti fall from the sky

These are the people we should all be fighting for. If you aren’t you’re doing it wrong.

Vaccines are one of the most important inventions humans have ever made. Period.

People should be alive and know their history and their choices.

For all of the Long COVID sufferers with CFS and mitochondrial/ATP dysfunction: I wish there was a way to make COVID-19 denialists and anti-maskers go through the daily experience of waking up feeling the same as exhaustion as when you went to bed nine hours previously.

Telehealth is the only way I can see doctors safely these days.

In person appointments trigger post-exertional malaise #PEM and it takes 1-2 months to recover thanks to #MECFS

Please call/contact your members of Congress and ask them to protect telehealth.

Democrats, take notes.
