I think this is why self-care has to be collective and collectively fought for. It cannot be individualistic or it simply will not work for the people it needs to work for most. Just for the rich who only can do it consistently bc of their exploitation of other people.

seriously though, i am so damn attracted to folks wearing masks in the face of a culture that thrives off our indifference to sickness and death in this never ending covid era.

Read the IPCC report and then read this. “What if the austerity is how we live now — and the abundance could be what is to come?” x.com/rebeccasolnit/status/1…

My sustainability class just finished a module about disinformation. I had them write me a letter assuming they were flunking and arguing that they deserve an A, using the techniques of disinformation we discussed, like cherry picking, false experts and ad hominem. HOO-boy. 1/n

Chronic illness is always being hopeful that your symptoms will get better but always being sceptical that they wont. It's living with a hope that feels painful but necessary to survive.

#LongCovid can happen after a 2nd/3rd infection even if you recovered fine after earlier infections. Patient groups have known this for months, since many people are joining under those circumstances. 1/

Decarbonization, as investment layers. 1. Renewable energy: ~$400bn a year, flat 2. Energy transition ( electric transport, storage): $200 billion, growing 3. Net zero ( heat, chemicals, materials): <$100bn, just getting started

My takeaways from @indy_johar's brilliant keynote at the #PEXForum2022 in Istanbul today. First of all, about choosing the right words when talking about the planetary crisis and avoiding platitudes ("sustainability") > "Words are codes that we whisper into the world around us."
