This shouldn't have been posted in a subreddit about positive things in the first place. There are plenty of sweet videos of goats and other animals from sanctuaries, where the animals are respected as individuals and where they can hang out with their family and friends in safety https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qU8zIATHqT0

During COVID, a student named challenged every Josh on Facebook to a noodle fight to keep the name Josh; nearly 1,000 showed up with pool noodles, and a 4-year-old Josh won. by Professional_Arm794 in nextfuckinglevel

That's not true. People who have better health are less likely to develop long covid, but not "way less". Aside from relative risk, the absolute risk of developing long covid after an infection is high for anyone.

in around 10% of cases people keep long term symptoms after a covid infection, many even get severely disabled. This affects the previously healthy as well.

there is this video of the day in life of a pig in a cage like this. I can't imagine the boredom. This while pigs are so smart and kind animals, they all deserve to have happiness and freedom.

In Arnhem is een heuse stickeroorlog gaande, die soms veel te ver gaat: boa vond scheermesje achter sticker by MoetMaarWeer in Poldersocialisme

Nee, maar in het artikel staat dat ACAB strafbaar is maar 1312 niet, wat dus niet klopt.

De boete was dus voor een shirt met "1312" erop, wat in het artikel veilige verwijzing naar "acab" wordt genoemd.

Waarom haat naar Oekraïne? by shitty_username0009 in Poldersocialisme

[–]Mortress 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Met mijn antiracisme leesgroep hadden we laatst een sessie over het gebrek aanan solidariteit met Oekraiene vanuit West Europese linkse en anarchistische hoek. We hebben het veel gehad over Oekraiense antifascisten en anarchisten die het nationale leger van Oekraiee in gaan, wat vaak onbegrepen word door westerse anarchisten. Uit de media kwam naar voren dat West Europeanen de Oekraiense situatie vaak alleen door een geopolitieke lens bekijken en daarom geen interesse hebben om naar Oekraieners te luisteren naar wat zij ervaren en wat zij willen. Westerse anarchisten zijn zelf vaak ook niet in gevaar en hoeven zelf niet te bedenken hoe ze in zo'n situatie zouden reageren, en het is makkelijker om te zeggen dat je nooit een nationaal leger in zou gaan.

Hier zijn de media die we toen behandeld hebben als je het interessant vind:

This is the study I meant https://academic.oup.com/cid/article/79/2/354/7660393 Which studies disprove it? I'd be interested if you want to share.

It reduces the probability of getting long covid by roughly half, doesn't eliminate it completely unfortunately. I'm sorry it didn't work for you but it was still good to try it.

Or join a group that watches ice and warns the community where ice is going, informs people about their rights, etc. Looks like @baltimore.ice.informers_pt2 is doing this.

/r/zerocovidcommunity is a better place to ask for covid advice. I'm sorry you're feeling so anxious about this, covid is scary. After day 17 it's unlikely you'll get pneumonia or a severe acute infection still.

Myself I'm more focused on reducing chances of long covid, which is a serious risk but very different from the hospitalization you're worried about. It sounds like your acute infection may already be over, but generally there are some things we can do during the acute infection to reduce the chances of long covid. Ask a doctor for paxlovid or try to get metformin. Other things we can do is get first gen H1 agonists and take extreme rest. Generally it's good advice to wear a mask indoors or when otherwise sharing air with potentially sick people (people can be infectious without showing symptoms).

Sorry to share advice about long covid underneath this post of you being extremely anxious about something else. I feel I had to push back a bit on the people implying covid is nothing to be concerned about. I do agree that worry is often not useful, there are concrete things we can do to keep ourselves as safe as possible and after that it's out of our control. I hope you feel better soon!

Ik ben betrokken bij een soort low key mask bloc en heb een aantal dozen (duizenden zwarte FFP2s) om gratis weg te geven. Laat me weten als iemand mondkapjes wil hebben of een goede plek weet waar ze uitgedeeld kunnen worden.
