Going on a professional development field trip to a country engaged in an active genocide is certainly a choice.

A little offended Grammarly didn't make a sloppelganger of me

"One officer delivered approximately 14 punches to the man's head and body area, while the other officer punched the man about nine times, the investigation found. It also determined the second officer struck the man three times with his knee." ACAB is a moderate position www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Just think of what this kind of spending could be used for in terms of free healthcare, and housing, and research

This seems like an endorsement of shit posting...

The COSMOS study of multivitamins and cocoa supplements continues to be a ridiculous circus that mostly shows how broken science is. This time, it's DNA methylation.

Once again, I will deploy the comparison of these guys using a forklift at the gym.

Long-time buddies Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols were out for a pleasant van drive in Oklahoma when, all of a sudden, their lives would change.

Hey @mark-carney.bsky.social any chance we can have something like this, but for women in science from Iran, make sure they don't have to go back during the conflict due to student and work visas expiring and maybe fast track the student visa applications from within Iran right now

If the Dems who win in the 2026 midterms get squeamish about prosecuting this administration, we'll need to elect a bunch of new people running on Nuremberg shit for 2028. This isn't a joke. It's the law. It's justice. Biden let Trump back in the WH and this happened because Joe didn't do his job

Remember guys, you can’t afford a gas rig, or a coal mine, or a nuclear power station, but you can afford to put some cheap solar panels on your roof. That’s why the fossil fuel industry has spent billions trying to kill renewable energy. The dealer needs to keep you addicted.

As an IR professor, it's depressing that this is outperforming all others as the best theory of US foreign policy

The work they are doing to normalize and universalize gAI use in schools and universities, to discredit any criticism, all to ensure they have a captive and uncritical customer base utterly dependent on them for generations

Danielle Smith and her UCP minions are Maple MAGATs in everything but name. Free societies don’t suppress authors and ideas. Read banned books, and pay attention to school board elections. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Voting for the @ndp.ca leadership in Canada is open now! I just voted and I ranked @avilewis.ca 1st! I endorse his platform and encourage everyone voting to rank him 1st. There are many great candidates on the ballot, but he is the best choice for the future of the NDP & Canada vote.ndp.ca/vote.php

Bad take. UBI is unconditional access to resources. It says, "I trust you. Show me what you can do." It is the power to refuse until the pay is right. It is the freedom to choose paid or unpaid work. It fosters community and societal participation. And ending survival fear is a psychological need.

This is a war crime committed against everyone in the world and their future children

I will be chairing an awesome session on RCTs using "Groceries" as interventions for chronic disease on May 9th, as part of the Canadian Nutrition Society 2026 annual conference Dr. Dana Olstad PhD RD, and Dr. Bohdan Luhovyy PhD will be speaking so come to Halifax or sign up to watch online

If a pharma company is throwing money at you to say "target trial emulation is great", maybe stop and ask why that is for a second

Some people who think RFK Jr. is crazy wrong on vaccines (he is!) believe he's some kind of north star on food because he says "eat real food" - which EVERYONE in food has always said. He's mostly crazy wrong about food, too. @mikegrunwald.bsky.social explains. www.thebulwark.com/p/robert-ken...

This is a straw man argument. Nobody is claiming that taxing billionaires would wipe out the national debt. We are claiming that taxing billionaires fairly, not 100%, is...fair. They should play by the same rules as everybody else. That money could do important things. www.yahoo.com/finance/news...

Third row, left is our friend Khrystyna. She was cool and warm and brave. Gave everything she had for Ukraine. We were supposed to grab a drink, just for girl talk. I kept being too busy. Then she was out on mission and I figured I’d text when she got back. She never did. And she’s never forgotten.

the most annoying shift in my academic career

I forgot billionaires from this list, although personally I am more in favor of wealth taxes

Members of the Canadian Armed Forces had accounts on a white-only dating site that promoted white supremacist ideology, a CBC News visual investigation found. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

My op-ed in today's @theglobeandmail.com, decrying the approach (or rather, the lack thereof) that the Canadian government has taken with respect to processing visa applications for highly qualified Palestinian graduate students who have been admitted to university programs across the country. 1/3

Thanks for writing this! I’ll be adding a link to it in my lab handbook and on the website for my undergrad scientific writing course.

Today is International Women’s Day - a time to celebrate all the remarkable advancements made by women and gender-diverse people across the world. Today, we recommit to the ongoing fight for gender equality and human rights for all women and gender-diverse people in Canada and across the globe.

Happy International Women's Day! I'm grateful to be in the field of nutrition, which is dominated by badass women. If you haven't, I recommend reading Janet King PhD RD's 2003 commentary on women in nutrition science & the legacies of Drs Morgan & Calloway as pioneering nutrition academics.

omg, nailed

So many abstracts being written for research days and conferences in the lab! 😅 It’s awesome to see the hard work 💪🏻💪🏽 and progress of our team, and the diverse work we do in translational women’s and perinatal health science!! Happy #InternationalWomensDay #IWD2026

Insane EV ranges, high battery performance at low temperatures, charging that's as quick as fueling up at a gas station. And cheap. Legacy car makers doubling down on gas powered vehicles are dead men walking. I'm looking at you Ford, GM, & Stellantis.👀 #ZEVs #EnergyTransition

I heard there are lots of data centers within a drone flight of Iran so....

maybe I'm focusing on the wrong thing here but this is the wildest shit I've ever heard a white South African say and I study racism for a living

me paying $30 in gas to buy imported things that have been hit with tariffs bc joe rogan is learning about politics at age 58

So they are planning oil spills now too, can't just light oil refineries on fire, they need to dump it in the ocean as well

Sunk cost fallacy, but you’re charging it to someone else’s card.

Honestly seeing this makes you think about the moral arguments for the extrajudicial killing of certain political and military leaders

hitting the same target twice is for killing emergency responders, and for making people afraid to help those who have been injured or maimed in a previous strike the US did this to a schoolhouse

Sickening

Israel has been attacking hospitals and health facilities in Iran. Their policy and practice of targeting and destroying healthcare in Palestine as a method of unlawful and immoral warfare is being exported and used on Iran.

One must assume that anyone who expresses surprise or "shock" that the IDF-US coalition is systematically attacking civilian infrastructure critical for life and is repeatedly commiting actions that kill civilians must have been living under a rock for the past 3 years.

Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.

The CBC can write up this self-justificatory bullshit all it wants, the simple fact is this: it is deeply immoral to accept an award from a fascist criminal. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Seeing lots of creep (smart) glasses popping up on Facebook marketplace, hopefully a sign of remorse

Our politicians are actually this dumb.
