Long Covid Awareness Day 2026
disabledginger.com · 37 people
It's 2026 and the Covid pandemic rages on despite many pretending it no longer exists. Today is a day to remind people of the disabling nature of the virus and how they can protect themselves.
This Long Covid Awareness Day let us remember the millions who've been disabled by the virus.
The people who've been forgotten and left behind.
The folks who have to hide their diagnosis because of the stigma attached to it.
You think you don't know anyone with Long Covid?
I promise, you do:

The one thing everyone gets wrong about feminism
theguardian.com · 11 people Worth reading
People love to declare the death of the women’s movement, pointing to the ‘failure’ of #MeToo or the Epstein files, but don’t give up the fight just yet, writes Rebecca Solnit
One of the (many) advantages of getting older is that we gain the longer perspective (and perhaps wisdom):
"Every step of the way, feminists have worked and struggled and fought and educated and argued to win the rights and equality we have. I tell these stories to encourage people to see how far we have come, with the hope that the evidence will make the case that the work is well worth continuing. And I tell them as a witness to dizzying transformation..."

What is agentic engineering? - Agentic Engineering Patterns
Just added the 12th chapter to my Agentic Engineering Patterns guide, but it's the first one in the sequence: I figured it was time to try and answer the obvious question, "What is agentic engineering?"

Gluttony became “eating seed oils.”
Sloth became “suboptimal sleep hygiene.”
Penance became “cold plunges.”
Grace became “social media engagement.”
The religious architecture survived.
Only the theology changed.

Willful ignorance

This post is written in an attempt to reckon with my feelings of rage and bitterness on Long Covid Awareness Day. Seven years ago, my fri...
Excellent post from @janet:
"Today is labelled a day of awareness, but we must recognise in the case of Long Covid, we are not merely raising awareness. We are combatting willful ignorance. People actively _do not_ want to know about Long Covid, and the long-term health consequences of Covid infections. They do not want to see us. This is the plain truth."
