Have to a chuckle at a WELLNESS COACH calling podcasters "unlicensed pseudo therapists"... unironically.

@weeklyshowpodcast.bsky.social So, the journey from appreciated justice advocate to callous asshole can be remarkably short. While miller was always a minimizer asshole, how easily he cowed Jon and @jonfavs.bsky.social into joining in ostracizing of the covid vulnerable was, well, disappointing.

Social media in 2025 is such an egregiously one-sided version of “social” that unfortunately tends to mimic offline life in many ways. Kinda almost totally over it. Long-form is where it’s at. At least I learn something.

Nearly Everyone Will Need to Change Their Diets by 2050 to Meet Climate Goals — Study Suggests #vegan

Anyone else here dislike when a company subscribes you to daily marketing emails just for signing up to something (but not email), THEN decides one day to take everyone and ALSO subscribe them to a Substack? Fun. (Also, anyone else report the hell out of this and unsub/kill accounts at this point?)

I *hate* Threads. All it is is engagement bait, and unscrupulous at that (and I know it's rampant elsewhere and is here too, but Threads seems especially stinky). Just in the past day I've had two small business people seek out "forming a group of [exactly your description]" and I say sure (cont)

I'd rather be wrong and alive than correct and dead. Still. Nearly 6 years later.

So techbros stole the core IP for these models from all of us, sold things it isn't (not even in the realm of possibility for AGI), money going in circles inflating a bubble much larger than subprime and .com ... and will probably get bailout "too big to fail". So all of us get to pay for it again.

Oh, what a powerful life Alice lived! She will be among my beloved ancestors of spirit for all the ways she has blessed and transformed the many communities she was part of. Her loss is felt keenly, and so much wisdom is left in her wake. Thank you, Alice, for everything.

“In particular, parents of young children seem to avoid information about COVID-19…It’s more pleasant to be part of a group that says COVID is not dangerous - & psychologically more soothing-than it is to look more closely when people you love are on the line.” #DutyOfCare #LongCovid #LongCovidKids

When Canada is in the midst of the worst doctor shortage in its history, this doesn’t address this. So unfortunate. #cdnpoli

Very much looking forward to this concert. Please see programme by clicking on the link and scrolling down. #AirMadeAudible #MusicThatCleansTheAir

Excellent thread. Right to the end. I was also forced to leave work I *loved* in 2020 because of society's refusal to protect. It is absolutely ridiculous how universally this has been swept under the rug despite concrete evidence of the harm this is doing to everyone's bodies.

It's not like we were born with an innate understanding of N95 masks and airborne transmission. Many of us put in the intellectual effort to understand it, starting in 2020. You don't need a medical degree to understand this stuff. It has been explained, and explained, and explained.

CBS firing most of its climate team is another very, very important reminder that there needs to be a massive effort to set up cleanly-funded media outlets immune to takeover, to avoid those fired jumping into the Substack bonfire where they'll be exploited and enshittified in a new way

This cycle is really, really bad and Substack really sits at the centre of it all

Y'all upset and boycotting Spotify. Just wait until you stop ignoring the atrocity that Substack is and how many progressive dollars they're enjoying holding of yours with their fascist hands.

A moth got into the shelter tonight and it was the event of the season.

Incorrect data about transmission, and bare faced posing for respiratory vaccination in the middle of a wave. From the B.C. Health Minister. But at this point I would be substantially more surprised by accurate information and modeling community care. (1/2) read on for accurate info.

My threads feed, which I really don't know why I keep checking (other than trying the futile attempt at having a business), is 90% engagement bait and humble-bragging. It hit a new low today.

This Sept 2022 press conference where Dr. Henry said a high rate of #Covid19 infections in kids did not translate to long term consequences: www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZiX... (23 min mark)… She & all her fellow CMOHs had knowledge of & were involved in this Cdn #LongCovidKids research (thread below)

Don’t say I didn’t warn you. “We may be witnessing the emergence of a population-level acquired immune deficiency — not sexually transmitted, but airborne.” That line isn’t from a tweet. It’s from a peer-reviewed paper in AJPM Focus (2025).

Looking for a hopeful read this Thanksgiving. Check out this piece by @chrishatch.bsky.social on the extraordinary growth of solar power (but also how much 🇨🇦 is behind the curve): Our friendly neighbourhood fireball www.nationalobserver.com/newsletters/...

Reminder that Substack's top pub is run by Bari Weiss, and Substack has partnered with them to help their protofascist org (which is where your money is going if you run or sub to a paid newsletter) If you boycott CBS, you need to stop *funding* Substack even more. #BoycottSubstack

People are running stats on LLM-generated participants and think they’re being social scientists when in fact they’re technically just playing a very strange video game. This is like saying you’re doing math research because you’re playing sudoku. www.science.org/content/arti...

Portland enacts emergency powers of nudity to check federal overreach.

I’m not going to tell anyone not to go have fun at a con. Fun is scarce right now! But Covid is very real, we’ve had five years to understand that, and all we’re getting is an ever increasing stack of dead bodies (yes, still) and disabled folk (millions and millions.) That can change.

Tara Moriarty's work, if I understand it correctly, documents an ongoing excess mortality in Canada of about 13%, something like 40,000 extra fatalities/year. She also documents ongoing major impacts on hospitals and public health. It's remains a catastrophe.

Sleepless nights, diesel smells and smoke that “smells like burnt plastic.” Some Kitimat, B.C., residents say LNG Canada’s startup is making life unbearable. @writermjs.bsky.social reports thenarwhal.ca/kitimat-lng-...

folks, CBC needs a slap back on the totally insane and editorially depraved coverage of the memorial for Kirk - it's news sure, deserves a 1 minute clip, with context about US fascism, not the full memorial #CDNpoli #CBC cbc.radio-canada.ca/en/ombudsman...

@cnn.com … a Canadian here. Would you please STOP putting Kevin O’Leary on your show to comment on #Canada , please!!! He’s not our spokesperson - never has been, never will be. There are hundreds of more informed, intelligent, and articulate Canadians who would be exceptional. Cheers🇨🇦❤️🇨🇦❤️🇨🇦❤️

This is such BS. Bhattacharya wanted no preventative measures for COVID. His plan would have killed millions more. Bhattacharya doesn’t want to prevent sickness, he wants to dismantle the NIH as revenge for governments implementing COVID measures that actually saved many lives.

Take the time to study this latest Angus-Reid chart and let me know what it tells you. #canpoli #cdnpoli #markcarney h/t Max Fawcett

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

Update on this story: The Canadian Broadcasting Standards Council has issued a statement announcing it can no longer accept emails about CTV Your Morning and Rachel Gilmore due to receiving a “large number of complaints” www.cbsc.ca/make-a-compl...

@engber.bsky.social You write pieces like this and then turn around and minimize the ongoing threat of COVID while mocking people like a grade school bully? You are part of the problem. bsky.app/profile/engb...

Hey @engber.bsky.social, I suggest you read this interview (and take a look at over 400K scientific studies detailing COVID’s harms) before you write another boneheaded, reckless piece about it. You should be ashamed. bsky.app/profile/gayf...

More outrageously condescending “coverage” from @theatlantic.com that paints people who want to avoid infection with a virus known to damage brains, hearts, and immune systems—as kooky “eccentrics.”

I was a kooky eccentric way before becoming an #Evermasker. Proud to be both. In fact let’s say I’m a proud #EccentricEvermasker :-D And fook that trash rag the Atlantic, by writing shite like this they’re propping up the regime and the destruction of public health.

🇨🇦ACTION - SEE BELOW🇨🇦 1. Send complaint to CTV 2. Contact CBSC

WE can be louder on this issue than the trolls that got @rachelgilmore.bsky.social ‘s segment cancelled. Become a bigger “distraction” 😡than they are! 🇨🇦#ElbowsUp! Complain to CTV first; if they don’t fix in 3 days, next step is here: www.cbsc.ca/contact-us/

If you are worried about disinformation and media manipulation in this election give a pass to @ctvyourmorning.bsky.social They caved to pressure from Pierre Poiievre's online posse in their continual harassment of @rachelgilmore.bsky.social She is a truth teller. CTV is not.

Terrible news. @rachelgilmore.bsky.social does a fantastic job of holding people who spread misinformation and disinformation to account. That is what pisses them off. On Twitter, the worst harassment I ever received was for a tweet with four words. "I respect Rachel Gilmore" I still do. Not CTV.
