The Global Spread of Contraceptive #Misinformation Online www.internationalaffairs.org.au/australianou... "...a flood of misinformation that favours 'natural' contraceptive methods..." "...only 10% of the analysed videos were created by qualified health professionals."

Sure, just like age-old truism tells us: "There's nothing healthier or more stable than an all-male workplace."

Per Customs & Border Protection, Department of Justice, and DEA data, 80-90% of foreign fentanyl that has been brought into the US each year since 2019 has been brought by American citizens coming through ports of entry. Only 0.02% of people arrested for entering illegally even possess any fentanyl

Gah, the number of cursed words in this post: "Maple," "virtual," "startup." None of them belong in a sentence with "ADHD." This is not good.

Germ theory denialism is the pseudoscientific belief that germs do not cause disease and that germ theory is wrong. It’s over 160 years old. It thrives in the alternative medicine and anti-vaccine communities.

Purifying my ideas in the cleansing fire of peer review.

"Oh no, winning political power? Is that really what we want?" - Democrats, apparently

Incredibly, the doctor who scoured social media for pictures of well known masked doctors, to publicly blame them for the lack of trust has turned out to be an incompetent manager.

Even Scott Adams could figure out that Makis is a quack.

I wrote a piece for @religiondispatches.org about the use of AI videos to promote a moral panic about civil unrest on November 1 with the ending of food stamps. The videos are racist, and misogynistic and rw response is threatening. religiondispatches.org/unconcerned-...

Back on my bullshit

Important...👇 SOGC Statement: Health Misinformation is a Form of Violence Against Women sogc.org/en/content/f... via @sogc.org 🙏 "It causes real harm to women and girls and undermines trust in health care providers and treatment options that are grounded in evidence and safety."

If you want to boost your immunity, you should get vaccinated, instead of taking some pointless IV drip

The "health care is provincial" crowd has arrived to state the obvious. Why do we have a federal Ministry of Health, a Canada Health Act, and a clutch of federal party leaders who consistently make health care promises during election campaigns if there's no federal jurisdiction?

Money for bombs instead of healthcare is better investment in our PM’s eyes. Such a disappointment compared to what he was elected to do.

It increasingly feels like the Canadian electorate was tricked. Health care is a consistently high voter priority. Kicking it down to the provinces after breaking the promises made in a federal election is shady af behaviour.

IV wellness clinics boldly ask the question: What if people wasted their money on a pointless grift AND ALSO risked a serious infection at the same time?

Ezra Levant is the Bari Weiss of Stephen Millers.

We have progressed from data collection to data analysis.

*leans close into the microphone* this cyclist is 77 years old

Trozzi is connected to Peter McCullough and The Wellness Company. His pinned tweet gives a good sense of the grifts he's involved in.

Joseph Ladapo praises Mark Trozzi, the former Ontario doctor who heavily promoted the "died suddenly" lie that Canadian doctors were dying after COVID vaccination.

Wtf is a "chronic condition pharmaceutical product"? Controlling fertility is a new chronic condition? No, people have done that for thousands of years. Contraceptives were the first pharmaceuticals? No, that's complete ahistorical bullshit. Means himself seems confused by what he's saying. 🤡

Ok this is hilarious but also seems... fake? Can you give yourself an enema by just hanging a bag and attaching it to your butt? Someone explain the physics and physiology to me please.

"I feel like all costumes should have a cape and fake muscles because if you have both those things you feel SO COOL." - 9 (aka: Loki) Happy Cute-Photo-And-Candy-Stealing Day to my fellow parents who celebrate!

We've all had that moment when we think a news article might be the Onion... but I just had my first moment of thinking at first glance that an Onion article was real. 🫠

An important story for Canadian healthcare journalists.... Paying for access to an MRI is one thing: accessing actual treatment after receiving a diagnosis is something else entirely. What's it like to be a patient stuck in this gap? Please see @lindsaytedds.bsky.social's thread below. ⬇️

💯

I need specialists to understand that if you tell the patient: "I recommend a treatment... but your family doctor needs to start it." ...they will call my office *twice a day* in a panic about why your consult note hasn't arrived yet and why I haven't sent a Rx. Please don't be that guy.

My husband's sourdough starter is nearly legal voting age. It's travelled with us to the Arctic and back. It's older than our kids and has visited places few Canadians have. 🫓❤️🍽️

"Beyond his concern for seniors themselves, Gates said that when there aren’t enough long-term care beds, seniors end up stuck in hospitals as 'alternative level of care' patients because they don’t have a safe place to be discharged to." ☝️This phenomenon leads directly to longer waits in the ER.

Obvious to say this, but the actual function of the smear job isn't to make us ask about his aunt, it's to show us the words "hijab" and "9/11" in a headline with his photo.

Mamdani at a campaign event referred to a little kid as a "Boss" however it is unclear what employment relationships exist between them.

I think the proliferation of online betting apps and ads for them is a danger to society and requires much tighter regulation

New York Post pitchbot: Is calling someone "uncle" woke?

Uncle Sam is going to be so mad when he learns about this

Hospitals don't do IQ tests. He's likely describing the MOCA, a screening test for dementia. You get points for correctly naming animals and knowing what year it is. Leaving aside that Trump thinks the MOCA is a PhD, what other national leader takes multiple dementia tests while in office?

This is a good piece on how the question of how many Diaspora Jews are Zionists yields radically different answers, depending on how one defines "Zionism." theconversation.com/the-conflati...

This is what 24 hour news cycle brain poisoning looks like. Why would this be relevant or interesting news? Who is this for?

An American woman's body was forcibly hooked to machines after her death to serve as an incubator for her fetus, but please yes continue your scintillating analysis of the phrase: "my body my choice."

Yesterday, I heard doctors speak who had recently been on the ground in Gaza with Doctors Without Borders. They shared videos and photos. It was…crushing. I can’t find the words to tell you how harrowing and devastating their testimony was. They, and their Palestinian colleagues, are heroes.

this is true, but canadian fascism is even lamer. american fascism is like "what if it was the 50s again," canadian fascism is just "what if we were americans." I saw a confederate flag with the stars replaced with maple leaves once. unfathomably pathetic

Passing it along.

Loool love to see it

👏👏👏

Thought experiment: is getting sucked into the Makis Ivermectin Experience better or worse than undergoing benzo withdrawal in a Russian hospital?
