@anaismitchell ok I get that the lyric change to epic III is probably simpler, and also better empathetically and logically, but also the "what has become of the heart of that man" lyrics struck me straight in the heart and I miss them

Anyway, incredibly to see @hadestown again, with the current cast bringing perpetual new life to it! I do miss the emotional gut punch of this lyrical moment, but the show is and always will be a gift.

I need to connect with a doctor who can provide quick comments on whether it's safe to travel in 2022 for a piece I'm working on.
It's due today, so I need someone that can answer me as soon as it's convenient for them.

I'm pretty convinced the U.S. is headed into another wave of COVID. I'm not extremely at-risk (had the virus in Dec) but unsure how to feel and act when people are so desperate to believe COVID has gone. I'd love to know what has helped people to feel less anxious about this.

I just...
My view on the daylight-savings-time debate is that I don't care when the sun rises or sets as long as I can be yeeted into it.
Wholesome, fascinating thread about trees that improved my day. 10/10

If anyone needs me, I'll just be listening to @anaismitchell and @odonovanaoife's new albums in an endless loop
New @anaismitchell is, in fact, everything I want. Thank you for this gorgeous artistry. Can't wait to hear these songs live.

Two weeks into having covid, I feel like my immune system is making that sound my computer makes when it's updating and sounds like it's about to blast off into space

This thing has rapidly become the world’s exasperating good news/bad news story. If your head isn’t spinning, you’re not paying attention.
A 🧵on my take on both the good news & the bad, with an emphasis on the things that have changed in the past few days... or minutes.(1/25)
So glad my spotify wrapped could confirm that I listened to the same six albums on loop for the entire year
For an article, I am looking for someone with a disability to interview about their experience using any type of healthcare/telemedicine app. Please DM me for more details if you're interested!

CDC quietly released this VERY consummate REVIEW (not new study) of existing evidence about vaccine-acquired & infection acquired immunity.
It is a VERY good summary and everyone should read it.
Key points in this thread. 1/7

It’s impossible to understand the pressure Simone Biles—the greatest gymnast in the history of the sport—and Naomi Osaka are feeling, but we’re lucky to live in a time where young Black trailblazers are publicly prioritizing their mental health above all else. That’s power.
This @dankois piece made me smile. Delta is freaking me out - I feel like I'm expending actual energy willing vaccines into arms. Good to know more vaccinating is happening, though too slowly. Also, I live for 14-year-old scorn over Covid vaccines. slate.com/news-and-politics/…

Hi twitter! 👋I am working on a story for @statnews and looking for people who had loved ones in critical care during the pandemic and were not able to be bedside with them.
What did ICU visitor restrictions mean for you, and for your loved one? My DMs are open.
