Wearing masks does not increase your exposure to microplastics. It actually reduces it. We have studies that back this up. While people should criticize the horrible companies that make ppe, we should be careful not to spread anti-masker talking points.

Is 3M a garbage company? Yes. Are they ruining the environment? Absolutely! But N95s REDUCE our exposure to inhaled microplastics! The air is full of PFAS particulates from car tires! I would focus my energy on reducing car usage before worrying about masks.

This is deliberately misleading. Testing is inaccessible, so case numbers tell us nothing. COVID levels in wastewater are currently as high as they were for the peak of the 2023-2024 winter season. That means they are very high and are still going up!

Illy is the real deal! They shipped cases of Inteliswabs to us at cost, doing an incredible service for people in Seattle and across the country! If you think it's bullshit that pharmacies are charging $12/test, give Illy some cash so they can get tests to people who need them!!

illy, not really 🎱

Hi, my name is Illy! I’ve been distributing rapid tests to different mask blocs for most of this year. 🐀📦 I’ve recently ended up with more inventory than I expected and I’d like to make sure it all gets used in time but I need your help!

Say hello to our new logo! The hearts are to show that masking is an act of love. We wear masks to protect our families, friends, and communities. The rainbow is to show we are a queer-founded group working to protect vulnerable, disadvantaged people of all kinds.

We do link to Amazon in cases where a mask is only sold through Amazon and it is only sold by a single trusted seller. Amazon has a confusing system where a single listing can have many different sellers and it's difficult to know which one you are buying from

The smoke is finally here. We recommend not breathing it! Wear a mask when you are outside, limit opening windows, and run air purifiers.

We are providing the UW United Front for Palestinian Liberation encampment with high quality masks, but they still need many other things! The medial tent really needs a power supply. If you are able to contribute something, drop it off at the Liberated Zone by Raitt Hall.

Tweeted too fast! Image alt: line graph of COVID wastewater levels year over year. The line for 2024 in August is higher than all previous years. Under the line graph is a map of the US showing how high COVID levels are. Almost all states are dark red indicating very high levels

It is BAD here on the west coast right now and the numbers are still going up. If you are going to be around people or in public indoor spaces, wear a mask! If you are experiencing ANY symptoms or have an exposure take a rapid test! We will get you free masks and tests 😷👍

Are you seeing more COVID-19 cases in your area? 35 states and D.C. are seeing "high" or "very high" levels of SARS-CoV-2 in wastewater, @CDCgov now says, up from 26 states last week

This graph is from the CDC's wastewater site: Do not "consider wearing a mask in crowded, indoor spaces". WEAR a mask anytime you are sharing air, indoors and out. That includes empty hallways, off hours grocery stores, and public parks!

It’s going to get hot by the weekend—plan on 90 degrees-ish Saturday & Sunday! 🥵 This doesn’t look like a historic heatwave by any means, but these things do often wind up hotter than envisioned. Let’s hope that’s not the case!
