It’s disability pride month, and if you are disabled in the U.S. from Long Covid I want you to know that you’re not alone, and you’re valid in whatever you feel. Whether that’s sorrow at your new problems or rage at society for failing you, you are valid, and it is truly messed up that society is continuing to fail you.

I will never get over ✨weird sneezes✨

sneezes that sound different or deviate from its predictable pattern on accident, especially in the midst of a chaotic fit, where anything can happen..

Maybe they breathed the wrong way, or had their mouth closed, or teeth clenched, or their voice cracked, or misjudged a sneeze’s timing/power – usual sneeze habits that’ve been interrupted like a combo breaker in a fighting game; the fit breakers, I eat that shit up

Part of why I enjoy reading/talking while sneezing wavs, not so much for the holdback and struggle of talking itself, but how much it can interrupt the usual *inhale - sneeze* and lead to new surprises 👌

bonus points if the person acknowledges how much that sneeze caught them off guard

No more words needed 😌

COLE RIGGAN TUNER!! I would NEVER manipulate my votings 😭😭 How could you say such a thing???

What I will give Cole is the fact that he has a full name. That way I can use it from time to time!

However...I am planning a different voting after I tally up the latest....

UM??? You must be tired of hearing this all the time but like how do you constantly put out masterpieces after masterpieces?? Each story you write has such interesting & creative storylines and you’re able to write them so so amazingly and so detailed I don’t even know how tk explain it?? Like 😭 you should be putting out books I would buy them all ong

You were definitely your English teacher’s favorite student LOL

😭😭 that's high praise my friend 😭 i wouldn't call them masterpieces *blushes and giggles in a corner* but thank you so much! i'm glad you think of my fics that way, and i hope i keep on writing even better stuff :'))

i think my fav part about writing is how creative i can get with the plot. there's no limitations, no boundaries, and you get to create your own world, characters and universe like how fun is that :')) i just hope i don't run out of these ideas and creativity 😭 sometimes i think about writing an actual book but then i get scared lol but maybe one day! thank you again, be thinking about this for the rest of the weekend hehe

The proposed crackdown on silica follows a fraught history of the mine safety agency's decades of failure to protect miners from the toxic dust. The proposal also overlooks a history of overexposure at coal mines.

Again, this downplays the need and justification for action.

The rule notes that 93% of silica dust samples have been in compliance with existing silica dust limits since 2016. But the remaining 7% of samples amount to 5,300 instances of excessive exposure to the dust based on the newly proposed limit, according to MSHA data analyzed by Louisville Public Media and Public Health Watch.

In the 30 years leading up to 2016, agency data analyzed by NPR and Frontline found 21,000 excessive silica dust samples based on the existing limit. More than twice that many dust samples — 52,000 — exceeded the newly proposed limit.

This means that coal miners worked amid dangerous levels of silica dust — which is easily inhaled, easily lodges in lungs and can lead to severe disease and death — tens of thousands of times in 30 years.

During those three decades, the risk of silica dust exposure increased, as mining consumed the thickest coal seams, leaving thinner seams embedded in rock. Cutting those thinner seams generated more fine silica particles.

Also, during that period, the agency did not respond effectively to the threat.
