I am not the first to describe keeping a chronically ill body alive as playing biohacker or necromancer: a mix of prescription and over-the-counter substances swirling in a caldron of side effects and unintended consequences; A/B variables tested against a fluctuating cursed baseline; a medley of mobility aids altering my shadow.
Grateful, as always, for your perspective and analysis. My post-Covid body is barely threaded together with mast cell stabilizers, grit, and a lot of attention to pacing, although I’m seeing slow improvement over time. I’m grumpy about Haraway for some of the same reasons Jillian Weise is, so thanks for that link. Just so appreciative of this project.
