i knew this conceptually, but like you dont really KNOW that public school is designed to set you up to be a good worker bee until you're cracking out a report, after hours, at 7 pm on a monday night and it hits you; oh, i'm doing homework, this is why they made me do homework, and suddenly i'm feeling it in my chest. i cant believe i was raised by the state to be an automaton, and worse, i am one of the lucky robots who isn't doing manual labor.

DI medical conference note. ok let me try to explain this

covid-19 is thought to be a stress test on a body. did you have a medical condition you never knew about? well, covid-19 makes damn sure you know about it! did you have an adequately treated medical condition? now you do not! was your mood disorder manageable? surprise! genetic condition that was not supposed to affect you for another decade or two? knock knock, covid-19 is at your door! this is part of why so many medical conditions are associated with covid-19.

in addition to worsening pre-existing conditions, there are a lot of other things being found from covid-19. coronaviruses as a category tend to cause a lot of damage. lot of (non-diagnostic) biomarkers being found. platelet damage. lot of blood clots. lot of brain damage. significantly reduced blood flow in the brain. loss of brain matter. 30% of covid-19 survivors get long covid. most of that involves autonomic nervous system dysfunction. the autonomic nervous system involves every other part of the body and the impacts are widespread. previously healthy people are becoming significantly disabled.

covid-19 survivors with mild symptoms have the same chance of developing severe chronic illness in the form of long covid as covid-19 survivors who were hospitalized. severity of symptoms is not related to chance of long term disability. long covid is not curable and neither are the bulk of post-viral chronic illnesses that tag along. athletes are becoming bedbound.

covid-19 is not a mild disease and vaccines do not prevent its long term effects. one of the presenters today used to specialize in dementia patients and swapped over to working with covid-19 because of how widespread brain damage is from covid-19.

covid-19 is the largest mass disabling event in history.

Every year I get angrier and angrier listening to Big Yellow Taxi because yeah, yeah you were absolutely right, Joni Mitchell. They did pave paradise and put up a parking lot. And nothing has changed about that in the last 50 years, Joni Mitchell. It’s still a parking lot. With a pink hotel, a boutique, and a swinging hot spot no less. You were right about that. You were absolutely right. You don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone. Nailed it. That is true. And I’m frustrated about it.

omg so we have 1 seeing dog and 1 blind dog and whenever there's a toy they both want, the seeing dog takes it and just...stands very still. immobile. she KNOWS he will try to wrestle it from her but she has figured out that if she does not squeak it, then he will not find it. leading to this.
