‘I was in denial about it’: actor Matt McGorry on having long Covid

🔁 @augieray:

This is a very worthwhile interview with actor Matt McGorry (Orange Is the New Black), who wants people to realize the threat of Long #COVID19.

"The science is really clear that getting Covid over and over again is not good for anyone. It feels like where the climate movement was like 10 years ago, where the scientists were saying things and people were not really listening."

Save someone from chronic illness (possibly even yourself). Wear a mask when you can.

“As an able-bodied person, you trust your doctor is going to steer the ship if something pops up. But if I were to wait for them & not be proactive, my health would have continued to decline.”

December 2, 2024- “.. never fully recovered” after two Covid infections.” “Long Covid has dramatically changed my life,” I was in denial about it, because I knew there’s no easy fix. I knew that if I did have long Covid, that I probably couldn’t afford to get it again, and if I couldn’t afford to get it again, then everything in my life would have to change. Breaking out of that denial was the first step.” - theguardian.com/wellness/ng-in

“Long Covid has dramatically changed my life,” said McGorry, describing symptoms including debilitating fatigue, depression, dysautonomia, Raynaud’s disease & brain fog, which he called “a cute little name for brain damage”.

I thought this was a shockingly good piece about long covid, resonated with a TON of my experiences, from fears of career discrimination to having to be your own scientific expert to the ideas of "health as virtue". The idea of "access intimacy"

Eventually maybe I'll be able to read stuff like this without crying a bunch but who knows

We're so brave and kickass and amazing out here, we folks with long covid

Nearly every device we rely on -- from laptops and smartphones to IoT gadgets -- is designed to fail. Repairs are so expensive they might as well not exist. Upgrades? Forget them. And when something breaks, you often have no option but to replace the entire device. It's a scam, plain and simple, dressed up as progress.

Gamers are starting to feel lonely? Well hot damn maybe if other gamers didn't harass women and minority gamers... (I play lots of games and I would *never* turn on a microphone because I know better)

I never tried online #gaming but know lots of people who did. An interesting article about changes in the online social culture over time and the ability to make online friends.

There are multiple somber YouTube video essays about the lack of conviviality in multiplayer lobbies, and most of them bear titles that gesture toward an elemental wound in the culture.

(One video, titled “Modern Gaming Is Becoming More and More Isolated,” has over 500,000 views.)

A similar despondence has struck the domains of Reddit and GameFAQs, which have historically served as the premier watering holes for fans of the hobby.

(“No one uses voice chat these days,” wrote one user. “People don’t chat in gaming anymore,” added another.)

On a more macro level, about half of Americans are currently experiencing loneliness,
particularly among millennials and Gen Z, who represent the industry’s primary consumers.

All of this is evidence of a generation that has come to believe that a reliable source of intimacy
—even if it’s down the scope of a sniper rifle
—has gone awry.

I would find it pathetic if I didn’t totally relate
