Happy new one!

Not gonna lie, “years” haven’t been great for a while so I’m not expecting much from this one.

Wow. Packed shoulder to shoulder, front to back for #NewYearsEve in #TimesSquare and all the venues they're cutting away to, in the middle of the biggest surge of the #pandemic, with an incredibly virulent new strain of #COVID raging through #NYC, and not a single mask to be seen.
Being outdoors doesn't protect you when you stay packed in close quarters for hours to someone who's infected!

Happy New Year! (Und gutes neues Jahr!)

…from a rooftop in Berlin!

If all you did this year was survive, that is enough. I'm so glad you're still here with us.

COVID is being ignored in the US, and we are quickly progressing to the "Find Out" stage.

"The BQ and XBB subvariants of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron are now rapidly expanding, possibly due to altered antibody evasion properties deriving from their additional spike mutations.

The neutralization of BQ.1, BQ.1.1, XBB, and XBB.1 by sera from vaccines and infected persons was markedly impaired, including sera from individuals boosted w/a WA1/BA.5 bivalent vaccine."

I mean, if you can't understand how the act of telling us that we are forbidden from recounting our own experience comes from the same place and structures as telling us that our experiences aren't real and that we're imagining the bad things that happen to us or that WE'RE the problem for bringing it up, then you need to go read some more Black feminist thought and actually pay attention when POC try to tell you something before you start trying to regulate what and how we're allowed to speak, at all.
