don't let these white supremacists set-up in Canada.

Autism is great. Pain relief is also good. Tylenol won't make your kid autistic. As you were.

If you, like me, are the parent of a neuro-atypical child dreading this autism press conference, please remember: These are the people hurting our kids. Not us. They are the ones stigmatizing and pathologizing them. They are the ones peddling untested science. And we should be very, very angry.

Hell yes JAYS!

Things I hadn't expected from the Blue Jays this season: 1) to be first in the AL 2) Berrios to the bullpen 3) Springer turning back the clock. Overall, pretty great season so far!

I have eaten the gluten free cookies Which I was generously gifted They were not very good But still cookies So the box is empty.

Canada still allows military goods to be sold to Israel, has yet to even recognize the genocide in Gaza, though it “strongly condemns” what is going on over there (wow, chilling). But it’s definite hardline action barring an Irish musical group from the country because we don’t tolerate terrorists.

Since multiple people asked about the sourcing on that Goebbels headline I shared via Sean the other day…

Kneecap respond to Canada banning them

Hey Canadians, The government banned Kneecap from performing. Time to write your MP! This is a load of hooey and silencing dissent.

I think people want to believe these events aren't predictable because they don't want to admit it could be their kid. No one wants to wrestle with the reality that their kid could become part of these violent communities.

GAUSMAN!!!!!!!

Talking with an extroverted parent at my kid's school, they asked me what kind of social event I would leave the house for. Dear reader, I was silent for a full minute before I said "I can't think of a single thing."

I may have ordered twice the number of cannoli I meant to.

I rode the back of the bus when it was dictated by law. This ain't my first rodeo with hate. I'm not gonna sit on my ass while it all happens again and whatnot.

Solidarity is such an easy concept to grasp, and I'm so much more disappointed when someone I admire fails so spectacularly at it.

Have you ever looked at the school "ventilation reports" provided by the Nova Scotia Centres for Ed? They're useless. No one from the Dept of Education has explained how "operating as intended" aligns with ASHRAE standards. @nbcovidinfo.bsky.social 's thread about NB might as well be about NS.

If I were the Blue Jays I simply have traded for Greene before the trade deadline. I'm pretty smart.

Covid is a labour issue. #LabourDay #WorkersRights

Once again calling for the MLBPA to designate this day as Curt Flood Day. And a shout-out to all unions, including my local CUPE. Workers unite.

Louis Varland pitched a great couple of innings. Great to see him do well!

As we watch emerging book bans in Alberta, I stand so hard behind these tweets that sparked outrage in 2023. It's never been about vaccines or masks. Those in favour of authoritarianism (who believe they'll benefit from it) use the pandemic as a crisis to create a following & advance fascism.

Fuck book bans. Let the kids read and get out of the way. Your job as an adult is to ask them questions or answer what they ask you.

The maddening thing is that we know EXACTLY how to prevent this. Yes, kids should get vaccinated, test, stay home when sick, mask as much as possible. But even without any of that: Better ventilation and filtration in schools can MASSIVELY reduce viral spread, for all sorts of respiratory diseases.

Remember, there’s no safe amount of wildfire smoke to breathe. It’s poisonous! Run air filters. Wear a respirator if you go outside. Keep kids indoors.

Well let's hope so!

Take a listen and if you're someone who's serious about reconciliation maybe send council a letter explaining that refusing to support a residential school youth empowerment event and throwing money at the Davis Cup (which 100% doesn’t need more money) positions them as pro-genocide.

I feel this way about the world:

It's genocide.

I really enjoyed mlb.tv when they didn't blackout jays games. It was delightful putting on a game featuring a couple of non-contending teams. Too bad mlb didn't care to lift those regional restrictions.

my commitment to you: no matter how many times you honk your horn at me, i will not drive over the pedestrian in the middle of the street.

These trainings are worth every minute, well worth it for anyone but hey fellas, especially for you!

You can’t “wellness” your way out of chronic illness and disability. People are desperate to believe that enough exercise, healthy food, raw milk & sunshine will make them bulletproof. Why? Ableism. They don’t want to face the fact that one day they will be disabled.

A draft standard requiring N95 respirator masks in health care settings has been released by the Canadian Standards Association. Voice your support by next Tuesday August 19 using the excellent plain-language explainer prepared by @donoharmbc.bsky.social (it’s also available in French!)

Doug Ford doesn't understand how people work, and its unfortunate that he's setting this precedent for other shitty premiers to follow.

This map. It's impossible to look at the bigger picture and think we're addressing climate change. Also, can someone tell the Premier that Nova Scotia never used to have a "wildfire season" 🙄

This is from 2023. It's now 2025 and political parties can still approve candidates who promote disinformation, and there's no disciplinary action for MPs who promote disinformation.

If you or anyone you know is at risk of complications from wildfire smoke, DM me and I can connect you with respirators via Halifax Mask Bloc (or dm directly on insta: www.instagram.com/maskbloc.hfx/)

An N95 respirator mask can protect you from wildfire smoke, and turn on your air filters, if you have them!

Something missing from the stories about that guy in NS who wanted a fine to test the Charter is who's paying for legal fees. There are organizations that cover fees for cases that push specific political agendas, and they're often located in Alberta or BC and get money from US donors.
