If Native folks are making it to sell to white people with the approval of their tribe, it’s not “appropriation”–its support and appreciation! So yes, buy that native-made dream catcher, but not the mass produced fakes made by white people. Like, you can go to a pow wow and buy native crafts there, too.

something I very much needed to read today

[0x1-deactivated20220826]

i feel like people got so weird about age gaps in this very abstract sense that now there's this taboo about being friends with someone who's a few years older or younger than u....like, i have friends in their 70s and i have friends in their early 20s and im always friendly with teenagers & kids too because they all deserve to have adult friends in their lives who they can trust! other people projecting their gross shit onto those friendships is not my problem

[indieninja92]

guess what! its good for us to have intergenerational friendships actually! its good for all of us to have healthy, friendly, respectful relationships with people of different ages! it works in all directions!

i never do these PSA posts because most PSA stuff isn’t actually actionable, but, uh, this one is:

tl;dr: there are now a bunch of drugs that are really damn good at treating COVID.  if you or a loved one get COVID, especially if you have extra risk factors, you should ask your health provider about them (and, if you’re in the US, you can even use this handy dandy website to see what’s in stock near you).  also, consider telling people (esp. older people) about this, i guess?  so that they know too?

Keep reading

Important US specific info:

As of March 7, 2022 The US “Test to Treat” program allows you to get a covid test and, if it is positive, you will be met by a trained medical practitioner at that same location who can give you a prescription for a covid anti-viral drug. This new program allows you to directly bypass the normal medical nonsense that is part and parcel of life in the US.

Here is the map of american locations for Test to Treat (test + medical professional) plus additional locations to fill your prescription of Lagevrio (molnupiravir) or Paxlovid (nirmatrelvir / ritonavir) if they cannot fill your prescription at the same site.

When visiting a Test to Treat location, bring a list of your current drugs with you. Both of these medications can interact with some drugs. The medical staff and pharmacist at Test to Treat locations will be able to select the best course of treatment for you if you have your complete list of prescription drugs (or just bring the drug bottles) with you.

Covid anti-viral drugs need to be started during the first 5 days of symptoms so if you or someone in your life has symptoms, look into this. Especially do not delay of you/the person has one or more high risk factors for covid.

Test to Treat

The Biden-Harris Administration launched a new nationwide Test to Treat initiative in March to give individuals an important way to quickly access free lifesaving treatment for COVID-19. Through this program, people are able to get tested and – if they are positive and treatments are appropriate for them – receive a prescription from a health care provider, and have their prescription filled all at one location. These “One-Stop Test to Treat” sites are available at hundreds of locations nationwide, including pharmacy-based clinics, Health Resources Services Administration (HRSA)-supported federally-qualified health centers (FQHCs), and long-term care facilities. People can continue to be tested and treated by their own health care providers who can appropriately prescribe these oral antivirals at locations where the medicines are distributed. 

A Test to Treat lo​c​ato​​r is available to help find participating sites. A call center is also available at 1-800-232-0233 (TTY 1-888-720-7489) to get help in English, Spanish, and more than 150 other languages – 8:00 am to midnight ET, 7 days a week. The Disability Information and Access Line (DIAL) is also available to specifically help people with disabilities access services. To get help, call 1-888-677-1199, Monday-Friday from 9:00 am to 8:00 pm ET or email [email protected].

...well...

[dontliveinthefuture]

thinking about this again

[thesundanceghost]

Nothing I’ve read has changed me more than “you do people a favor by accepting their help” like I repeat this constantly to so many people because it’s true!!! People like to feel useful, they like to feel kind, they like to feel like they have an ability to impact people’s lives so just let them!! Not everything is a thing to be owed back — accept people’s kindness without making a competition out of it

[somethinginthestatic]

being in your early 20s is crazy bc there’s people who are literally married and people who’ve never even dated and people who are trapped in their childhood bedrooms waiting to get out and people who are trying to live out romanticized dream lives and people who are completely on their own and people with multi tiered support systems and we’re all supposedly peers and none of us think we’re doing it right at all

so metropolitan museum of art has a register of books they’ve published that are out of print and that you can download for free! they’re mostly books on art, archeology, architecture, fashion and history and i just think that’s super useful and interesting so i wanted to share! you can find all of the books available here!

Oh yes! More and more museums are putting collections online, both images of art and the books they tend to accumulate. A lot of the books are actually terribly boring – they’re old, text-heavy, or inaccurate – but there are some real gems if you look, and of course many are valuable in terms of scholarship if you needs sources on a specific topic.
