@deecolonizer Definitely. We tryna work on a presentation to appeal to leadership/boards about re/introducing some precautions by framing it as an “attendance issue.” Wish us luck 🫠

@_lynesia thats so good to hear esp. w/ her working w/ children. they need so much more care *in general* but esp. when it comes to this pandemic!

[qrt] thank u for clarifying bc u didn't have to! i think the "safer, masked fun" part is nice, aesthetically; however, it also requires a salient follow thru with regard to theory in order for it to be effective.
Lynesia@_lynesia
This too! I also engage in outdoor/home-based cc activities. I only started this other stuff again in 2024. To be real, I refused to keep exclusively risking it all going to work/school/home with ppl that did not mask & exposed me anyway. I know it’s not ideal 😖 just my truth

@deecolonizer Chile, you know Covid a lot of folks first time being involved in activism/community. They be having the disability part with no class analysis or sense of how this might disproportionately affect different races/ethnicities/countries. Thank you again for sharing tho 🙌🏽
English
@deecolonizer 🙌🏽 Mind you, this is info cc ppl need to share instead of talking down on “Baggy Blues” bc they don’t realize Covid is a class issue and not everyone has access or can afford the masks we might wear. @deecolonizer

@_lynesia ok it took me a while but i'm back
first off, i created a thread w/ articles, videos & tips that highlight the need for everyone navigating a pandemic to wear tight-fitting, sealed respirators and how u can turn "lower quality" masks into respirators w/ modifications
a southern souliloquy@deecolonizer
here is a non-exhaustive thread on the various modifications you can apply to surgical masks to increase their efficacy at preventing airborne illness (95% effective like N95 masks). combining these modifications will increase your mask's efficacy 🧵
English
It’s almost like SexEd. Solely focusing on abstinence just isn’t quite as effective messaging as a solid health campaign, sharing resources and info, organizing and creating spaces/a culture that supports safer sex (masking/ventilation/so on). Again, a thought🖐🏽😶🤚🏽 Don’t jump me

I go to a minimum of 2 conferences, 12 concerts and 1 vacay a year. I also go to parties, festivals, meetings and other events. I test and isolate as necessary as well. I only hope to make more friends to join me #maskup
💌@glowyaquarius
Reminder to the general population that you can still live a full & fun life while wearing a mask & mitigating the spread of preventable diseases!!!

@_lynesia i don't think u necessarily need this *per se* but i learned a lot about pathogen transmission from UC Davis thru their series of videos detailing Indoor Air Quality and Pathogen Mitigation.

@_lynesia lastly, this may not be as accessible but it's worth sharing:
licorice root is an antiviral (w/ many other benefits) that works better than paxlovid w/ less side effects. u can consume it via tea or supplement (be sure its made w/ the actual root)

@_lynesia also, my moot made a comprehensive document on a nontoxic super disinfectant that one can make for very cheap. it has literally helped me so much as it can be aerosolized and inhaled to remove pathogens from ur lungs. u should look into it

@deecolonizer Yeah, I learned from public health faculty in my learning ecosystem, BUT it’s not about me fr. It’s about sharing info and effective science communication. These look good

According to a Beltline engineer I met, this is part of the many cool ideas/plans they have that apparently will never see the light of day bc of a small group of influential ppl that are against it. #TheAtlantaWay

The Atlanta beltline should have rail

@deecolonizer Oh I hear you there, and I’m glad we could as well. And sharing resources would be great! Thanks
English
@_lynesia yes! i specifically reject being apart of the CC community for this very reason! i'm glad we could see each other clearer and i'm also willing to share resources that can help make ur (or anyone's) pandemic precaution praxis more accessible as mitigations become inaccessible.
