The dog is tolerating Xmas

Over and over again it's women, specifically of color, showing up to give voice and put a face to the opposition. Where are the straight white men assembling a choir to do the same? White people, especially men, need to step it up fast. ✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿🇺🇲

do you think #Westjet customer service on purpose makes it a horrible, gouge my eye out experience?

Agree. He managed to make nice with Alberta and we all know it will never get built … both things are true. Genius

"Imagine you stole all of the intellectual property in the world. And you're using it to help people write middling emails and make revenge porn about women, and also children. And you're powering this plagiarism and non-consensual porn machine by eating up what's left of humanity's carbon budget."

Please #Kamloops please stop sending in emails, making posts, and calling shows to say that Kamloops needs a performing arts centre so that we will get healthcare professionals. Trust me - spent much time in Kelowna hospital and here and the lack of a performing arts centre has nothing to do /2

“I have an ominous feeling that this flu season will be worse than the last strictly on the basis of our dysfunctional capabilities.” >> of course, public health won’t be bothered saving people’s lives until a bunch have died

Excellent if worrying from @angierasmussen.bsky.social on the latest trends on flu in the states and canada. Highlighting how difficult it is with the cuts to CDC for monitoring viruses and testing human infections.

I find him pretty funny.

Spent a few minutes on X/twitter and itnis much worse than I remember. @kamscan.bsky.social can you please post all content here as well? You provide a service; but X is a blackhole of conspiracy theorist nutjobs

The future of knowledge and failure of decision making, if we stay on the current implementation timeline.

Tragic loss

Cora Ella Hind travelled 10,000 kilometres every year to survey crops in Western Canada. She was so good at her predictions, farmers called her the Oracle of Wheat. To them, she was the most trusted voice in agriculture. This is the story of her fascinating life. 🧵 1/13

In a shocking on-air moment, a “Fox and Friends” co-host said homeless people suffering from mental health issues who refuse help should be killed

In February last year, BC’s Ministry of Forests wrote a letter telling CN rail it believed the company played a role in the fire that destroyed Lytton. It intended to seek costs. Six weeks later, it reversed course and closed its file. My latest for @thetyee.ca. thetyee.ca/News/2025/09...

People will die

Ok #Kamloops been wiped this week by earlier eve. Too hot

Zelensky pretty sure disgraceful meeting could have been disgraceful email

100%. I work in a very well resourced, well staffed ICU and we are still hemorrhaging nurses. It’s really obvious to anyone paying attention that ignoring Long Covid (when it is common among nurses!) is making everything so much worse. Acknowledging reality is the only way through this.

This barely made headlines because the ‘free’ press is afraid of Trump

Spot on

Told you so. #VirusFreeAirNow

The rich must be incentivised; the poor must be disciplined. The political economy of the super-elite in one headline.

It's insulting that we have a legal system that doesn't understand how the human brain behaves during a traumatic event. And we should *all* be concerned by the chilling effect because it means people aren't coming forward which means we're not apprehending people who are committing profound harm.

I hope everyone enjoys Wave 11 of Covid. Anyone who says, “during the pandemic” should be interrupted immediately mid-sentence wherever they are as it’s 💯 disinformation. - Widespread geo spread - Sustained p2p transmission - Large-scale impact Wanting to forget = intentional communication error

Kirk LaPointe: Fiscal restraint a 'one-way street' for Eby government #opinion

If this is true then it is treason. High treason. Canada must investigate whether Trump' dangled $500 million to support the break up our country. Danielle Smith needs to come clean with Alberta and Canada on any backroom negotiations to aid the destruction of Canada. www.desmog.com/2025/07/22/t...

unpopular opinion: it is to DJT's advantage to keep the whole 'Epstein list' alive because it detracts from all the real, and very serious, issues. At this point, who gives a crap? List, not list. No one will believe it wasn't altered. We know he is a rapist (convicted). oh, for 'news'

I guess the media needs it to be spelled out but the core principle of RFKj wellness fascism is that if you get sick it’s your fault, you could have avoided it by using the right “supplements” and working out, so you might as well die because you’re of no use

Elon Musk casually, and illegally, dismantled USAID. According to a new study in the Lancet, that action will lead to *14 million* premature deaths between 2025 and 2030. Again: Elon Musk is directly responsible for 14 million coming deaths. 4.5 million will be children.

grrrr #Kamloops transit route near my house reduced because....summer. So....community friendly, environment friendly, not useful.

The name "Alligator Alcatraz" reminds us that America is currently run by adults who are like malicious, giggling children using magnifying glasses to burn ants.

an Order of Canada that deserves to get ratio'd. Bonnie Henry consistently undermined covid mitigations. She spread misinformation about the safety of schools, efficacy of masks, and need for covid vaccines in children. More people than need be died and were disabled due to her decisions.

My latest for American Scientist Magazine helps give scientists the tools to fight back against politicized charges that our research is silly or pointless- tools that will work whether you’re asked “why are we funding this” from your asshole uncle at Thanksgiving or an asshole US Senator. 🧪🌎

Popped over to the other place to check on someone - yikes. Toxic

Shortly after the 2021 heatwave I heard from 3 different people who lost loved ones to the heat. They were 68-low 70s. Not particularly unhealthy. What they had in common was that they lived rurally (must be worse for urban no ac) and they had no ac and just didn’t have a place to cool down.

Ghoulish, indeed. Seniors who only receive the minimum (OAS,GIS, and AB Sr benefits) only get around $1900/month.

Remember, in America only the secret police get to wear masks

not only has democracy in the USA died, but so has Science.

#Kamloops the little water bombers just flew over -- they have been away for a bit so I guess wildfire risk in area must be increasing

Does she realize what she said is hypocritical?

#iNaturalist on its way out — too bad. I have loved this citizen science effort but 1) announced plans to use AI and 2) ramming those plans through despite enormous user pushback….yeah, no.

Hey! Americans - ready to die for their country now. Bring on the bird flu

Watching the right now oppose the part of the second amendment that guarantees a well regulated militia under state control is… something.

Horrendous
