I don't know how to convince you to take care of your comrades.
But Long COVID impacts every fight for justice, every social movement. Honor the energy and integrity of the folks in my latest @thesicktimes.org feature. Be careful with each other so we can be dangerous together.
Thank you for asking this, we are working on a list. I think Red Emma’s used to require masks at events but I see no evidence they still do. Anyone else know any Baltimore bookstores with covid precautions? Or a store in any location you think should be on our list? Let us know! 📚💙

I am extremely pleased to have this essay, on how American fiction has grappled with COVID, in @currentaffairs.bsky.social. This is a subject I care deeply about and had been wanting to write about at length for a long time. Please give it a read.

Most people don't realize that people with certain health conditions need to 1) be well enough to enter a store, and 2) need to judge the risk of entering to their health or life.
COVID spreaders have forced us out.
I wish I could drop into Powell's sometimes, but it's simply not worth it.
