I spent the first two years of the pandemic shielding as an #immunocompromised person.
My boyfriend's roommate decided none of that mattered more than going skiing with friends unmasked in the car ride.

Roommates fine.
I've been #Disabled by #LongCovid and can no longer work.
Roommate was fully in the know and had said that they agreed to the same level of caution because they didn't want to get sick.
Now as an immunocompromised person I am in more danger than ever. No one is taking mitigation or safety seriously anymore and eugenics ideas and talking points are becoming more supported and mainstream and the vaccines and therapeutics have been rendered pretty much useless
Said roommate makes 100k+ a year working from home in computer animation. They've never checked to see if I ever recovered or offered to help with the financial devastation they visited on my life.
Neither has the Ex
#NotRecovered
And it's not like there hasn't been plenty of time.

It will probably never occur to roommate that their actions have cut short my life, ended my quality of life, or ensured that I am likely to die homeless & #Disabled and that maybe she should bears some responsibility for that. Days with Long Covid  Jan 8, 2022  353 days (since)

#LongCovid crash day 2 or 3. I haven't been able to eat in 2 days and yesterday evening I stopped being able to keep down fluids. I also fainted in the bathroom and hit my shoulder and head. They've given me all the Zofran they can and next we are trying capsaicin cream. Image
I have no idea how I am getting home after they let me out I had to take an ambulance here. Ubers are expensive RN and I have 0 money in my account to get home with.
It's going to be a while still waiting on the CT and x-ray results.
My venmo is @ PenGwen9

Now to wait for this pepper cream that's supposed to make me stop feeling sick

My friends care if I live or die
If you don't and you show me that we are not friends and I am not going to waste my energy pretending that we are anymore.
Which is pretty much why I deleted FB.
I didn't really add people I didn't know and after the way, everyone has behaved and treated the vulnerable for the past 3 years I am looking forward to never seeing those people again.
Ever.
I have #LongCovid the kind that comes with #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis so my energy is nonexistent and precious.
I'm not saving any of it to be polite to people who do not give an f if they kill me.
Instead, I reserve that energy to support my community.

So Twitter can't cut down on actual hate speech or sexual harassment but this is a problem?! Are you kidding me? Image
And if I try to appeal it this is what happens Image
Maybe firing all the devs was a f***ing stupid idea, Elmo.
