Fear the wrath of the empath. It doesn't happen often but when It does happen let me tell you it ain't pretty. They know how to dig deep and twist the knife, have a keen understanding of what motivates others, their vulnerabilities, doubts, insecurities.

Had a loooong chat via text w a former coworker from the hospital lab. She isn't on TwitterX but remains COVID cautious, one of the few, even after having caught it once (recently). Neither of us knows what comes next, both of us feel deeply betrayed by our institutions and even our colleagues. A sense of distrust permeates everything we once believed about our jobs supporting healthcare and public health, there's no going back to that world. #lostintime

So exhausting trying to even relate to educated, well-meaning people who just can't grasp what an airborne vasculopathic immune depleting virus is, and why it's not a good idea to host indoors happy hours during a fucking pandemic of it. Thanks a whole fucking lot CDC.

Does anyone have an example where politely requesting authoritarian fascists be less horrible has worked? Why does anyone believe indulging bipartisanship with fascists is anything less than being complicit?

Best case scenario for #uspol is R's spend the next year failing to vote in a new Speaker, no more R written legislation gets moved up to the Senate, Trump gets thrown in prison, and Biden is forced to debate West on national television.
