#introduction for new server. I moved my anarchist account and I hope this will be the last time. :)

I'm Aidan -- nickname Bird, hence my screenname here: TheBird.

I am a #nonbinary, #queer, #disabled #ScienceFiction #writer. I have #LongCovid, and it sucks. I am still working on diagnoses for other possible chronic illnesses.

I have a second account at Aaidanbird@disabled.social, where I focus on needs of that community there.

My Elivera world, of which most of my writings are set, is located here: http://www.worldanvil.com/w/elivera3A-the-lost-ones-aidanbird

My Elivera world is a solarpunk world, where I explore various #AntiCapitalist ways of existing. Capitalism has never existed on Elivera and will never exist. A lot of the "nations" of Elivera are run by horizontal democracy and are experiments with collectives (some anarchist in bent and others experiments with communist approach to society).

I keep a database of saved #Covid studies and articles. I update it 2x a month. It's on #notion. I set it up with tags. Link: https://bit.ly/AidansCovidDatabase

I have a SUPER FLUFFY cat named Sgt. Quark Amaya McFluffers. He's my little buddy.

And that's about it. I'm not new to Mastodon by the way. I'm just posting this so I can pin it for others to see.

Hey all!

My Petition to demand Mask Mandates in Healthcare settings is LIVE.

PLEASE SIGN AND BOOST!

I mentioned my city in particular, but this is also for all healthcare settings in the USA too.

For the Left to cede this fight to capitalist and eugenics, horrifies me forever, and I'll never stop talking about that.

This article does a good job of digging into why the Left is FAILING to mount a response to pandemic catastrophes and eugenic policies: https://www.midnightsunmag.ca/why-has-the-left-deprioritized-covid/

Good read.

But now that we have identified the issue, we must act to fix it.

The Left needs to fight tooth and nail for pandemic mitigations, otherwise eugenics capitalism wins. We cannot ever achieve justice, equity, sustainability, equality if we do not push hard for and currently engage in pandemic mitigations.

Masks work. Wear them.

Air filtration works. Use it. Make your own CR Box with 5-6 Merv 7 or higher air filters, point the arrows on the filters toward center of box, duct tape them together to a box fan that blows outward. Seal the sides well and use a cardboard to cover the sixth side (the place where you set your box). They are safe and cheaper than buying HEPA portable filters.

Vaccines work. Get them and the boosters.

Thanks for reading.

@Mathlover hated receiving the email that “someone in one of child’s classes or on their sports team or in their activity” had Covid earlier this week. Too late for us to do anything about it #MaskUp #MasksAreAnAccessNeed

If you wanna follow my writings on disability and the intersection of my other interests with disability, I will post more of those on my Aaidanbird@disabled.social. (For longer essays on it, I may post them here when they intersect with community building, justice, collectives, and anarchism.)

Important Note about my Elivera World: It's a solarpunk world, where I explore various #AntiCapitalist ways of existing. Capitalism has never existed on Elivera and will never exist. A lot of the "nations" of Elivera are run by horizontal democracy and are experiments with collectives (some anarchist in bent and others experiments with communist approach to society).

I keep a database of saved #Covid studies and articles. I update it weekly. I did have a few folks helping, but we all got #LongCovid, so it's down to just me again. It's on #notion. I set it up with tags. Link: https://bit.ly/AidansCovidDatabase

P.S. If you want to help, I'll need to vet you first. Feel free to share and let me know if there's some newer articles/studies you'd like to see saved here.

Other Important notes: I'll never shut up about #Covid. It's a #justice and #access issue. Please #maskup as this is airborne (plus masking will decrease chances of catching other airborne diseases and decrease allergens). Please push for #CRBox and other #AirFilter devices to be placed in all interior spaces. If we work together in solidarity, we really can push back this disease and slow (if not stop) the mass death and disablement that is currently happening!

Mask up and stay safe friends. Thanks for reading.
