When air quality sites like airnow.gov and others that report AQI list ~100 AQI as "moderate" or "unhealthy for sensitive groups", it is utter bullshit.

PM2.5 (the particulate of concern with wildfire smoke) is gnarly as shit. It's a carcinogen. It goes deep into the lungs, bloodstream and brain.

I don't wanna scare folks cause this shit triggers my anxiety in a big way but it's important to dispel the normalization of this hellscape.

At 50 AQI I feel real gross; at 100+ I have a massive headache and can feel weird chest and muscular pain.

This is not fucking okay. We deserve fresh air and water and soil and it's going to take militant action to break through complacency cause the people who have power to do something about it do. not. give. a. single. fuck.

It will take every bit of imagination and radical reenvisioning of everything around us. Cause the status quo is fucking miserable and I'm not going out like this
