If I become a Disney adult just take me behind the shed where they keep the chemical barrels and put me down. I’m allowed to go Full Star Wars but if I start talking about Walt Disney as if he wasn’t a voracious, gleeful antisemite, I don’t deserve one single star war.

I am once again saying we have a common enemy and the wise (and frankly morally correct) thing to do is for liberals and leftists to realize this and work together. You can tear each other apart later (though I wish you wouldn’t)

Up next Dr. Marta Mirabent from UCSF on SARS-CoV-2 persistence & T cell activity in the female reproductive tract! #LongCovid Hypothesis: female reproductive tract is a preferential site of SARS-CoV-2 persistence and/or a site of immune dysregulation during Long COVID

Every single day another person with LongCovid dies, and yet the abled masses will still not listen to us, as the pillars of our community continue to crumble. We will miss you, Leslie.

Goddamn it no no no

I just had to specifically request that a *physician* perform my lip biopsy for Sjogren’s disease. It is absolutely wild and completely unsettling that they are letting PA’s perform this procedure.

As far as I can tell, viral persistence underlies absolutely everything in Long COVID and we need antiviral combos, as predicted in 2022 after seeing first data from Tollovid in Long COVID. #polybiofallsymposium2025

It should be alarming to everyone that there isn’t a single state or county where someone working full time at minimum wage can afford a two bedroom apartment.

Seeing a bunch of "leftist" ass hats who were annoyed that Leslie called them out about COVID make fun of his death. He was right, and you'll find that out eventually. I just hope you remember this when you do.

there are already so few Black men speaking up about covid and so having Leslie as a constant presence on here just provided a steadiness in the midst of all the gaslighting and minimizing. i didn't know him besides on here but i'm hella gonna miss him.

It's weird. I didn't know Leslie personally. We never talked. I followed him, interacted w his posts, & looked forward to his advocacy posts. And yet, I find myself tearing up over his loss. The unfairness of it. The hole he's leaving behind. Another community member gone.

I’d bet nearly any amount of money that widespread vaccines for “common” “benign” viruses would cause a large swath of hard to predict ancient illnesses to simply disappear

Viral particles in nearly all post-covid samples!! Detectable in blood!

Homebound ppl having to see those annoying ass self-improvement posts that are like “you HAVE to leave home every day or you’re WASTING YOUR LIFE” Disabled people navigate living full lives, rich in relationships, love, art, thought, & culture without mobility. Shut up!!!

When SARS-CoV-2 persists in the bone marrow, it’s not just hiding. New cells are literally born carrying viral material - mainly megakaryocytes - platelets. Strongest evidence - megakaryocytes and monocytes. Weaker branches - dendritic cells, erythroid precursors, EPCs

Viral persistence is THE NORM. Every virus I’ve studied. E-v-e-r-y virus. Now. Think about the kids in school where “we want them infected” is the fucking policy. And think about the docs who don’t mask at hospitals or the people who fight mitigations. exercisetechlab.com/viral-persiste…

We who study autoimmune disease have known for years that Epstein–Barr virus is far more than an epidemiological curiosity — it is implicated across a wide range of autoimmune conditions, including systemic lupus erythematosus, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, type 1

🙋🏻‍♀️ It’s me. I have aphantasia. When I was a little kid and the teacher told us to “close your eyes and imagine x” I really thought we all saw complete blackness and we were all just *pretending* to see something. The person who could pretend the best had the best imagination
