- Reposted by Manuel GómezI have lived most of my life under the ruling of one party in #Venezuela, which led to many of us fleeing. More Venezuelans have left their country than Syrians or Ukrainians. Please don’t make easy judgments based on your Global North view if you didn’t know much about us until recently.
- remember when stalin took berlin and ended hitler's reign? yeah, that stalin, the one that also murdered millions? you knew this fact about history, yes? so why are you now surprised? it happens, sometimes murderous dictators fight and one of them removes the other one.
- a murderous dictator was toppled and i don't hear yall "progressive" motherfuckers celebrating. WHY ARE YOU NOT CELEBRATING WITH US? aren't you supposed to care about human rights? do you care more about your little game of discourse Risk than about the political prisoners rotting in El Helicoide?

- tanto gringo hablando de crímenes de guerra y no reconocerían ni un solo nombre de nuestros miles de presos políticos, exiliados o asesinados. tanto hablan de imperialismo y les sabe a mierda que llevamos décadas con tres proyectos imperiales de los BRICS chupándonos la sangre. viva venezuela libre.

- Reposted by Manuel GómezWear an N95 respirator mask in all situations of potential covid-19 contagion. Any rational person should understand why it is necessary at this point. It has been nearly 6 years. It is not complicated.
- Reposted by Manuel Gómezthere's a lot of talk about what's "dividing" people these days when the biggest thing doing any division is the average person being unable to accept reality as the rest of us suffer through it, ever convinced they're somehow "exempt" or "special" as they bite down into the eugenics cookie harder
- Reposted by Manuel Gómezthe "covid is over" people continuing to assure it will never be over by not moving a millimeter in their behavior almost would be funny if it wasn't so sad. maybe in 30 years we'll get a "sad sad movie" about their lil regrets and how they "didn't know" and "there was nothing we could do" 🙃
- Reposted by Manuel GómezPeople saying Trump is dying or possibly dead, but I for one would urge caution, because it is quite possible a second healtbar will appear as he enters his second phase and a gargantuan centipede will burst forth from his torso, so be careful of his new sweep attacks and toxic buildup from bites.

- Reposted by Manuel GómezOld Soviet joke for today: A man walks into a newsstand every day, looks around, and leaves. After a long time of this, the owner says “Can I help you find something?” “I’m looking for the obituaries.” “The obituaries are in the back of the newspaper, comrade.” “Not the one I’m looking for.”

- Reposted by Manuel Gómezfascism always comes with personality cult so I do think even though vance is as shit the fascist movement in the US will fracture a lot under him, more infighting would be a good thing
- yall in the US are SO lucky if he actually croaked lmao like happy for you but this is almost insultingly lucky for everyone else living in dictatorships

- #ThrowbackThursday: In 1980 the 🌍🌎🌏 was declared #smallpox free, thanks to mass vaccination efforts. Smallpox was an acute contagious disease caused by the variola virus. It was one of the most devastating diseases known to humanity. #VaccinesWork
- kinda proud that today i quoted boromir's full spiel about the ring being so small a thing in a work meeting

- Reposted by Manuel GómezCheck this neuron infected with #SARSCoV2 being attacked by a microglia. Is this process beneficial or detrimental? Do we want therapies to inhibit microglia activation/neuroinflammation, but what if it means more neurons infecting other neurons? Neurovirology is fascinating! #FluorescenceFriday

Kuleba states that the children are being displayed like products. all the evidence is available on the official resources of the occupying authorities, which effectively makes this child trafficking.

- Reposted by Manuel GómezSafe bet that virtually every reported MI and stroke (globally) is COVID-related now. COVID-19 causes damage to all of your blood vessels. Unpredictable clotting cascades can lead to heart attacks & strokes. Repeated COVID-19 infection increases the likelihood of your own MI or stroke. #N95swork

- i don't know wtf is going on and it's none of my business but clearly people need to use the block button more. to be fair: even with this app's legit great tools to block en masse, it really needs to be a lot easier. public microblogging is toxic as fuck because everyone is default connected.
- this is extremely fucked up for human beings. you're normally separated from other people by virtue of physical distance, and social structures arise to counter that and build ties incrementally. public social networks completely invert that pattern. so does the open web, but that's different:
- the open web does not make everything immediately extremely discoverable to everyone else. this app has the Discover feed, which is something that imo should not exist, because it creates social ties algorithmically. social ties should always be created through individual human intent.

- Can you imagine what would happen if the US responded to a viral surge by doing *any* of this? The article makes it sound like Honduras has a better functioning public health response sys. than the US does - & a more sensible populace. Something to reflect on. 1/3 www.reuters.com/business/hea...

- Reposted by Manuel Gómez*Knows nothing about comics* Okay so the premise is Superman is a normal person under a red sun, and under a yellow sun gains super powers. But this implies if we moved him further up the main sequence to be under a blue sun he will gain super-super powers and become Super-Super-Man—
- Reposted by Manuel GómezSince so few people mask now, if we could get some to mask during these two big waves/surges, that’d be a win. Personally I mask everywhere outside my home, even outside—because COVID passes through the air like smoke & I’ve followed the science on its long term effects closely.
