Me In 2020

Everyone: “Don’t worry, COVID will be over within a few years.”

Expectation: *The virus will fade away to a point where it becomes rare, and hardly anyone will ever get it anymore. Vaccines will become available that will completely eradicate it. Long COVID sufferers will eventually completely recover. Everything will be exactly like it was pre-2020.*

Me In 2023

Reality: *Everyone pretends it doesn’t exist anymore, even though it’s as rampant as ever. 1,000+ people are directly dying from COVID in the U.S. alone each week. Thousands around the world are still getting infected with the virus each week. Long COVID sufferers are still suffering, with no sign of getting better in sight. We’re learning more and more about how dangerous this virus actually is, yet people are caring less and less. Very few people still wear masks anymore in the United States; and social distancing is nonexistent. You’re probably more likely to be harassed by a stranger for wearing a mask now, than come across someone who actually still takes this seriously.*

Things are actually worse now than 2020, because unlike 2020 - when safety protocols were in place, no one cares now…

Accountability receipt time!

Paid for! Thank you!

Yes, Canada is very slow transitioning to online services. When I first moved to Finland a long time ago, my friends were floored I still knew how to write a cheque because everything is already automated in swampland.

long shot but need $70 for government ID renewal.

PayPal: paypal.me/bglamours

Thanks!

CW: COVID-19 FUCK!

Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.

Now I am just anxiety-ridden, horrified and scared beyond beliefs.

I'm still zero COVID; but my friends are not, and I genuinely worry about my best friend every single day.

I'm glad Manitoba is still providing access to Paxlovid for free (with prescription) until end of May. But I honestly don't want to do after that date.

Dropping COVID mitigations is eugenics.

Canada following in America's footsteps yet again...

Thank you for all the support on TDoV!

Today is Trans Day of Visibility and Mira Bellwether's second anniversary (after her death) on her own birthday. She passed away two years ago from a stroke on Christmas while immuno-compromised from chemotherapy and unprotected from COVID transmissions from the medical staff.

Keep Mira's memory alive by making sure every trans person is fed. Or housed (eg. rent support), giving direct aid or whatever needs required to be met.

I am trans (they/them if you don't know me personally; she/her if you know me personally) and my best friend (she/her/they/them) is queer. If you wish to support either one of us (or both!), feel free to send a pizza via PayPal here: paypal.me/bglamours.

PS: bestie is both vegan and gluten-free. So, cauliflower pizza.

Thank you for keeping us safe!

Hope you will have a fantastic day! To all the sisters, brothers and siblings, you are loved!

CWs: self-defense, decapitation

To make it clear the rendition of the first painting is trans girl-coded, the title of post is from this song:

in classic /derogatory) tumblr fashion the boop-o-meter isn't accessible. For screen reader users it just says the numbers, not what they represent. I'll just say in case anyone here uses a screen reader that the thing on top of your feed is the boop-o-meter, the first number is boops given by you, the second is boops received by you and the third is total boops on the platform

If you want to support my best friend, who was forced back to work because of austerity measures when she should be focused on studying, here is her PayPal: paypal.me/bglamours. She already caught COVID several times. Thank you!

Ah, bloody hell, there's a real possibility my best friend has long COVID.

Long shot, and previous partner would kick me if I don't try 110%, but here is bestie's PayPal: paypal.me/bglamours

I really want her to get a job in a safer workplace, but first she need to graduate from her program which takes 2-3 years.

All I want is for my best friend to be safe from COVID and for her to focus on studying instead of being forced to work bartending and waiting jobs.
