After about 16 months of constant pain, I finally got a diagnosis. Turns out, I have long COVID. The nurse said the symptoms overlap with fibro, so I've been put on an anti-inflammitory.

Time to start wearing a mask again.

What about disabled queer histoty? Do you have anything? I can't imagine how hard it is to find it?

Disabled queer history is all throughout Making Queer History, I have a couple of lists floating around, but before getting to that point, I want to say that queer disabled history is not hard to find. Queerness and disability are inextricably tangled together, and (no shade meant to any other queer history project) it would be harder to keep them separate than it is to find them together.
