CBC: "'She just never recovered': Some COVID-19 patients are still dealing with symptoms long after infection" 'March 15 marks International Long COVID Awareness day' "Hall’s wife has long COVID...some days it's difficult for her to get out of bed" www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Some ceasefire. Netanyahu has to go.

Health authorities blew it by describing covid as flu-like and telling us to wash hands. The disinformation from our gov'ts is permanently set for most people.

“…when a virus can create durable immune dysfunction, you do not keep defining it by the first doorway it used to enter the body. You define it by the system it damages.” Stop calling COVID “a respiratory infection” if it’s crushing immune systems open.substack.com/pub/natocrac...

A former top Chevron executive was super tight with Delcy Rodriguez. He told the CIA to back her instead of Venezuela's democratic opposition,. The agency told Trump. Now Ali Moshiri is ready to cash in. He's raising $3 billion to get back in Venezuela's oil game. www.wsj.com/world/americ...

NOT NOW, MYSTERIOUS LARGE STEEL CYLINDER

U.S. hoteliers were promised a World Cup boost, but lagging bookings less than three months ahead of the tournament are giving the industry the yips.

Switzerland has closed its airspace to US military flights directly related to the war against Iran, Bloomberg reports.

Iranian General Mohsen Rezaei outlined Iran’s demands for any Trump negotiations to end the war: “The US must compensate Iran for damage caused by the bombing. “American military bases must withdraw from the Gulf region.” (Iranian TV)

“Relative to population, the death toll in Lebanon is equivalent to more than 9,236 people being killed in the UK in 11 days, or about 45,600 if compared with the US.”

“There is obviously potential for truly egregious corruption,” he said. “But an effort of this size has the potential to distort these national security-critical industries in ways that I don’t think anyone has seriously contemplated.”

If you think that those big stock market moves before a tweet doesn’t have anything to do with this policy, then I got an oversized pair of shoes for you.

"EU must stick together against Trump’s hostile tactics, says top diplomat. Kaja Kallas says Washington seeks to pick apart European governments, which wield less power individually." As always, the plan is to divide and conquer. Hungary and Slovakia say Hi! www.ft.com/content/1b9c...

The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled. A truly extraordinary moment. We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT. Act like it.

Dear Inside Trader, If you want our help after you’ve short sold oil futures, you’re going to have to cut our tariffs. Negotiating for a few billion friends.

Possible solution to the Strait of Hormuz?

When you're reading a publication like Bloomberg Law and you come across the phrase p a l p a b l e v i b e s h i f t 🫩

That’s his vig

E. Jean Carroll, one of my personal heroes, took on Trump and won. She’s one of the bravest people I’ve met. She shared some thoughts on Trump and Epstein’s awful friendship.

New from 404 Media: the removed DOGE deposition videos have already been backed up across the internet. A judge ordered their removal from YouTube on Friday. By Saturday, the videos were available on the Internet Archive and as a torrent file www.404media.co/the-removed-...

It's also due to the old "with us or with the evildoers" false dichotomy trotted out by public health leaders, who told everyone the only options are to support them 100% or you're with the Wakefield types. It's not coincidence that the only choice offered is which medical insider* to obey.

*Don't fall for the historical revisionism that says Wakefield is an outsider. The medical establishment covered for him for over a decade, and it was an investigative journalist who took him down. His accomplices are still protected today, and they've blocked any real investigation of the coverup.

This turned into a bit of a thread, linking here so it doesn't get buried:

"It takes around 17 years for health findings to become mainstream practice" is an indictment of medicine's calcified and outdated management class. Medical training based on antiquated seniority-driven systems that care more about power than quality of care can't keep up with a changing world.

“Concentrating pregnant [girls] in a state with these laws puts their health, and sometimes their lives, at risk. This isn’t just about abortion, but about what happens to their bodies and their access to care during pregnancy, including life-saving care.” - Zain Lakhani

Ford is counting on fatigue, apathy or complicity to push his FOI changes through and avoid public accountability. We need to summon the energy to resist. I called Ford again today. Will you join me? Ford ☎️ (staffed 24/7): 416 325-1941

Long COVID awareness is powered by community. Around the world, organizations, advocates, researchers, and patient groups are creating powerful resources to educate others and push for better understanding of Long COVID.

Good.

It is actually possible to regulate gambling advertising, and while designing such a regulatory regime could be complicated, it can also be very simple, such as "there shall be no gambling advertising".

This is, to put it mildly, a double standard. This guy was part of a government that encouraged online social media figures to engage in routine harassment of government employees to the point that many were fired or went into hiding. Some of it was done by Elon Musk, this guy's boss.

The only risk in playing Russian Roulette is that you pull the trigger when a bullet's in the chamber. Otherwise it's perfectly safe.

I’m glad to see some media coverage of #LongCovid. The caller on the Quo interview, a healthcare worker who got sick in 2020 from a patient, raises an issue affecting many #LongCovid patients: denial of disability benefits. If you don’t mask everywhere else, you can’t claim you got it at work.

If you care about the COVID airborne transmission cover-up you should read this. TLDR: there was a COVID airborne transmission cover-up

When I ask people to mask it’s not out of a virtuous superiority or even an ethical code. It is because I am in the depths of this hellhole, and I am *screaming* at you not to come down here, and definitely not to shove anyone else in.

Long Covid isn’t just an illness. It is an ostracizing condition that puts you in discordance with society, with your friends, your family, and yourself. People want very much to not think about it, but it’s inescapable if you have it. Only a few illnesses make you a social pariah, this is one.

Some people recover from Long Covid. Many do not. Some go into a spiral of worsening symptoms until one issue or another kills them. That may be happening to me. My doctors are trying to get me admitted to the Mayo Clinic. I may be out of food entirely then.

Now I’ve been a food person since I was born. There is nothing in my life, including a divorce, that could not be addressed with enough sourdough and cheddar. Food is my joy and coping mechanism. And every time I lost something, I got more devastated. Now I am down to five foods. Five.

It's okay if your phone autocorrects 'fuck' to 'duck.' You're still using fowl language.

WATCH: “The answer has to be a more progressive tax system. Give people the necessities of life for free — childcare, healthcare… the rich keep getting richer…” Lloyd Blankfein, Senior Chair of Goldman Sachs, out here sounding like @aoc.bsky.social & Bernie 👀 🎯 (From @bluegeorgia.bsky.social )

#CPC MPs including #PierrePoilievre, are pushing #DonCherry for the #OrderOfCanada. A racist, misogynist loud mouthed bigot. This is the same playbook as the Trump regime giving Rush Limbaugh the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Degrading these solemn awards by giving them to divisive bigoted bullies

Lots of truth-telling in this piece. While the various Ministers he mentions try to right the ship, I think they do it to buy time. I don’t think Carney is on a world trade tour for nothing. He’s not perfect, but I can’t think of a single player in CanPoli who could navigate this with his skill.

Don't. Print. Lies. In. The. Newspapers. Jared Kushner holds no government position at all. He is not a Senate-confirmed political appointee & his "special peace envoy" job is completely fake. This is wildly illegal & unconstitutional nepotistic corruption. Stop normalizing it in the papers.

how ironic to see the state protect two people who sought to strip the state while working under the direction of elon musk, who has made it impossible to seek recourse when people get death threats and harassment on twitter
