News from the past 24 hours (10/5 to 10/6) because everything Happens So Much:

The CDC has finally officially stated that COVID may be transmitted through air despite that we’ve basically known this all along.

The CDC offered to do contact tracing for the White House and notify all those potentially infected. The WH said turned them away. There are many reports of those who came in contact with positive cases only learning that they were exposed from news reports, not by any WH contract tracers.

Trump returned home to the White House and took his mask off pretty much immediately despite still being contagious and standing near other people. He then posted a bizarre video telling people not to fear COVID while also making dubious claims about his health. Here’s a transcript.

Both Florida and Texas online voter registration websites broke before the registration deadline. Residents of Florida were given an extra day to register.

Facebook removed a post Trump made claiming COVID is less deadly than the flu. He posted the same to Twitter, which only obscured the tweet with a disclaimer and did not remove it. PBS has put the past few years of flu deaths vs less than a year of COVID into a graphic to show the disparity.

Vice Commandant of the US Coast Guard, Admiral Charles Ray tested positive.

COVID exposure may have reached the Pentagon.

Trump says he’s killing any coronavirus aid package until after the election, tanking the stock market immediately. He is prioritizing the SCOTUS nomination and by extension, an overturn of the Affordable Care Act. This will throw I believe 20 million Americans off their health insurance.

Facebook banned QAnon across all its platforms to “bring to parity what we’ve been doing on other pieces of policy with regard to militarized social movements” and limit the “ability of QAnon and Militarized Social Movements to operate and organize on our platform.”

Up to 123 people at the Capital are COVID positive.

The St Louis couple who waved guns at passing protesters have been indicted.

The White House dropped their opposition and agreed to the FDA’s standards for release of the COVID vaccine, meaning it will not be rushed out before election day. The FDA has also created a new landing page about the vaccine.

Stephen Miller (senior advisor for policy for Trump) tested positive. There are now 23 people connected to the White House with positive COVID tests. Mid afternoon it was only 21, here’s a graphic. I can’t find an updated graphic but even if I did it would probably be outdated soon.

I’m probably missing stuff but man I got other shit to do.

hi so some updates in life bc i’ve mostly taken to twitter and discord

still identify as non-binary, but now can confidently say i’m transmasculine.
i recently (2-3 months ago) learned that non-binary people can get gender affirming top surgery and now i want to yeet my tits and get bear claw tattoos on my chest so i can say a bear stole my boobanies. i tried packing and it did nothing for me, so i’ve ruled out bottom dysphoria

pronouns: they/them
formalities: Mr./Sir

(honestly being referred to as she/her doesn’t really hurt me too bad, but what really gets my goat is Ms./Miss/Ma’am)

still androsexual. going to maybe try dating next year. i don’t think i’m aromantic, i just had a lot of hang ups on feeling weird and unwanted

also i’m trying out a new name? i don’t think my legal name is a deadname, but i’ve started a secondary online art identity, and i go by Francis in that circle. being called Frank or Franky or Fran is too gendered for me, since Francis sounds exactly like Frances ergo no one gets to figure it out until it’s written.

making progress!
