Not wrong. Just early. This is why I continue to mask up and avoid infection.

Almost everyone used to take COVID seriously. Most people stopped. If you stopped, you are under tremendous pressure to “not know” about COVID. To not pay attention.🧵 People are not really the story. COVID is the story. #OneOfTheTwo

One reason that “there’s always two” (at least for me) is that, if you can find that one other person, at least you’re not alone. Constantly swimming against the current can be exhausting. #oneofthetwo

Wrote about how disappointing it is that Jon Stewart punched down on people masking at @motherjones.com, when people should mind their own business and leave mask wearers be. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

It’s rare, but it’s times like these that I do notice a huge difference between here and Twitter. Let’s get #oneofthetwo trending here, Covid Bluesky!

#oneofthetwo is trending on Twitter and it is beautiful. Happy to see a few posts #saltingthevibes here as well.

Out running a few errands before the ice storm and the inevitable Aylmer power outage. So many coughing, sniffly people. I guess they must enjoy it. 🤷‍♂️

Dear Jon Stewart c/o @weeklyshowpodcast.bsky.social I recently watched, with great surprise and disappointment, a weeklyshowpodcast segment in which you and other "personalities," gleefully mocked and derided the relatively small subset of individuals who continue to wear a face mask in public.

The more I think about it, Fuck Jon Stewart.

With “leftists” like these, who needs enemies?

I’m sure it’s just coincidence.

oh, look! it’s @weeklyshowpodcast.bsky.social’s jon stewart heading up a triad of suck with @timmiller.bsky.social & @jonfavs.bsky.social! way to totally suck ass, guys! carlin would be so proud. also newfound respect for @judahworldchamp.bsky.social. thanks for keeping it real & calling out this 💩

Hey @weeklyshowpodcast.bsky.social ~44-48 million in the U.S. have experienced long Covid. Risks increase with each new reinfection. Political leaders are dismantling public health more & more each day. I'm a big comedy fan but how is it funny to punch down to people who wear masks in 2025?

This resonates on so many levels.

Many get sick while traveling. One major reason is they don’t realize mass transit is high risk because airline CEOs lied about viral spread early in the pandemic and lobbied the CDC to lower precautions. To make the most of your holiday, take precautions like wearing a mask when you travel!

Yes. And it pisses me off.

From the infect 'em and study 'em files Children who started K in 2025 in BC were born in Jan to Dec 2020. I'm guessing min 5 COVID infections each? Sure, lack of 1° care and assessment waits don't help. But ... #bced #bcpoli news.ubc.ca/2025/11/decl...

This is wild. Yes, collectively, we are sicker than we used to be. It’s not your imagination.

It’s fuckin’ gross out, folks. Yikes! #maskup

I was surprised to see this article trending on my Apple News feed. @mjnabuurs.bsky.social is fighting the good fight for clean air in schools. Our kids’ learning environments shouldn’t be cesspools!

The fact that there’s a good chance we’re gonna have a green Christmas after such a frigid, snowy November/December is kinda bullshit.

We could stamp out the flu this season but ew, no… masks? The trauma of masking is too much, apparently.

Anyone else getting absolutely swamped by emails from the Liberal party? Like, multiple emails a day? I only joined up to stop Poilievre from winning. I didn’t sign up for this spam tsunami.

It’s so fucking hard to insist on, or argue for, any precautions now. No one is willing to suffer even the most minor inconvenience. I’m so done with this stupidity.

Especially in schools, dammit.

Of all the problems this country has, this slow slide into privatized healthcare maybe concerns me the most.

Gosh, if only there was some sort of effective mitigation for the flu. Oh well. Everyone just has to get sick, I guess.

Read this twice. “Our findings redefine SARS-CoV-2 infection as a condition of long-lasting immune compromise.” www.sciencedirect.com:5037/science/arti...

About 30% of my feed is a Norman Rockwell painting.

I dunno gang. I think it's important to keep re-infecting the population with COVID, especially the now largely unvaccinated children, to get more data. #LeonardiEffect #SocialMurder

“SARS-CoV-2 causes lasting immune dysregulation for over 20 months.” Hey Siri, on average, how many COVID infections does a person have yearly? Do the math. (Just kidding, Siri doesn’t like answering questions about COVID)

Dear Quebec, Stop paywalling flu and covid vaccines. 🤬

Russia sends stolen Ukrainian children to North Korea to become militarized.

There's an inconvenient truth for public health leaders who insisted COVID doesn't spread in schools. I mean, not too inconvenient. It's not like there are any standards of professional conduct. Is killing people out of sheer incompetence embarrassing? Or is it too normalized now?

Oh my fuck. Hahahaha. Yes. That’s what we need. A Freedumb Convoy holiday. That said, we’ve caved on pretty much everything else they wanted. 😐 No masks, no mitigation, fewer vaccinations, etc. Why stop there?

Charging for COVID and flu vaccines is privatized healthcare. Fuck that. #quebec #covid

I made some #bluejays fan art to cope with their World Series loss. 💙 #jays

So what is the deal, exactly? Or do we just not know yet? We know the vax helps with the acute phase and lessens the risk of heart problems as well as long COVID (somewhat). But spike protein from the vax being “less bad” than from infection isn’t really optimal either…

Almost everyone who touts the benefit of private healthcare is hoping to profit from private healthcare.

Seeing a lot of those “sick as a dog, tested negative for covid” type of posts. I always have two trains of thought. 1) Thank you for at least testing. 2) Did you test more than once? And bonus thought: 2b) Do you wear a mask when you’re out in public with not-covid?

@profanity.accountant 😬😬

This needs to happen: "Union leaders are not ruling out mass labour disruptions and other protests in the spring if the government continues on its current path." This is how the labour movement can demonstrate relevance, by helping us all take power back from the oligarchs and the well-connected.

La Presse reports that 36 of Gatineau’s 285 doctors are leaving the province. Another 53 are considering it. So many people (myself included) have been on the family doctor waiting list for years. The CAQ is going to cost lives.

There are so many folks in the Covid aware community that refuse to leave Twitter. I get it. That community is legit and I miss it sometimes. But there’s no winning there. There is no point in advocating for change against a sea of bots. The game is rigged in Musk’s favour.

Dylan Cease is instantly the top moustache on the Jays. #bluejays #jays

Holy fucking shit. 👀 #bluejays
