The effects of the ongoing COVID pandemic are like COVID a̶g̶a̶i̶n̶

Le Regroupement pour l'Art Humain (RAH) a pour mission de défendre, promouvoir et pérenniser la création artistique humaine face à l’arrivée des intelligences artificielles génératives (IAG) au sein des sphères culturelles québécoises, tout particulièrement dans le domaine de l’illustration.

Two Quebec medical associations are warning that contraception, abortion, cervical cancer screening, pregnancy care, and gynecological exams will be seriously undermined by Bill 2.

The beauty of corporate communications, where the person who asks me to give money to their campaign is the same one who refused the request to grant me a permanent contract ✨

The vibes are BAD. It's DARK at 4pm. Only thing left is an actual hermit crab on my @pikaole.bsky.social hermit crab phone case #Crustmas

My Spotify Wrapped just dropped! /checks notes Sorry, my mistake: I just dropped Spotify, that's a wrap, f*ck fascist shills

what with the "shrug, eugenics isn't inherently bad" guy and the "accommodations have gone too far" defenders, it really feels like a rough week (or rougher week than usual) for disabled people, and I would politely ask the universe to KNOCK IT OFF

🇬🇧 Les Britanniques invités à porter un masque alors que la grippe se propage dans tout le pays (ndlr: mieux vaut un masque FFP2). "Nous n'avons pas vu un virus comme celui-ci depuis longtemps, cette dynamique est inhabituelle". 🔗 archive.md/h7u6E#select...

I was delighted to join the great @DaniAtomicus on her stellar podcast Public Health is Dead. Kayli Jamison, a Long COVID activist in Canada who I much admire, was also featured. I encourage you all to listen & subscribe to support this excellent work. www.publichealthisdead.com/episodes/bad...

One of the sequelae to covid is MCAS, and one of the big symptoms of that is acquiring exciting new allergic reactions to random things. You can suddenly behave allergic to deodorant, soap, wheat, chocolate, garlic, milk, cheese (and anything what contains histamines, such as leftovers), etc.

Je constate que beaucoup trop de personnes ont encore un compte Spotify avec les récaps de fin d'année. Pour rappel, Spotify finance l'armement et diffuse des pubs pour ICE aux Etats-Unis.

Radio-Canada se déplace à Paris pour dérouler le tapis rouge à un vulgaire chroniqueur et polémiste de Cnews la chaîne d’extrême droite. L’histoire se souviendra de la façon dont la bourgeoisie libérale a contribué à rendre ces gens importants et influents.

Does anyone on here know of organizations that are willing to help support an official government e-petition that seeks to have the government change the Canadian Copyright Act to include an individual's right to their own body and voice so they cannot be impersonated by AI?

🔴 UNRWA: Israel is holding 6,000 aid trucks, blocking relief that could sustain Gaza for 3 months UNRWA says Israeli authorities are detaining about 6,000 trucks loaded with food and relief supplies, including hundreds of thousands of tents & blankets designated for 1.3 million displaced people...

This is why the organized anti-vax movement must be treated as an extremely dangerous movement with democidal potential.

#Montreal was rated #1 bicycle city in North America this year. But the party that won the municipal election campaigned on auditing and removing bike lanes. They’ve already started in my borough, #Outremont. So we made our own bike lane this morning. We need to keep our kids active—and safe.

I wanted to cook a big butternut. Two hours later, I have a soup and a gratin but some butternut left. The squash won this time.

1. Les enfants seront en toute sécurité que Caroline Quach nous a dit en 2020 dans des pubs pour le retour à l'école orchestré par le gouvernement Legault. La diabète de type 1 est une condition qui dure toute une vie.

My boss seemed genuinely lost when I told her that vaccines waned and that she wasn't protected against covid. A nurse had told her she was fine as she'd had doses before. She said "I just don't get it anymore". Good job, public health.

Canada cancelled its northern food program over the summer and is refusing to answer APTN’s requests for why. Canada continues to Canada…

Reuters article out there suggesting COVID doesn’t affect healthy individuals. Not sure who wiped their memory that many healthy individuals died in one of the worst mass disabling events in history, and that IT IS ALSO BAD IF “VULNERABLE PEOPLE” DIE but I guess this is the state of media today.

hey Canada what happened the last time Canada forced pipelines through Indigenous territories?

Solidarity with Indigenous peoples fighting for their freedom and sovereignty, including Palestinians, today and every day.

been saying this for years now tbh 😭 it sucks to watch this happen in slow motion.

À @toulousefr.bsky.social, @jeanlucmoudenc.bsky.social refuse d'ouvrir les fenêtres en pleine pandémie de Covid au détriment de la sécurité des élus. Et le summum de la médiocrité c'est de se servir de la maladie chronique d'un élu comme si le froid était plus dangereux pour lui que SarsCov2. 🤦‍♀️ 1/🧵

La lutte contre le VIH-Sida n'est pas terminée ✊ Des personnes meurent encore du sida, les droits reculent et l'inaction politique tue. Le 30 décembre, le Planning sera dans les rues avec Act Up ( @actupparis.org) pour continuer de faire exister ce combat 🔥

Vraiment super de lire qu'on est hystérique, puérile, outrancière, etc. par anti-féminisme et anti-anti-fascisme un 25 novembre, journée internationale de lutte contre les violences faites aux femmes. Les VSS ont encore de beaux jours devant elle et s'accentuent avec la fascisation.

"Vietnam has been hit by 14 typhoons this year. Five was the average a few decades ago. The rain from the past few days did not even come from a cyclone — but to add inundation on top of injury, a 15th major storm has just formed off the country’s south central coast."

The information that could have stopped the pandemic in 2020, that Dr. Morawska was desperately trying to teach WHO infection control leaders in 2020, was known for 👉84 years👈 before these events (documented in @carlzimmer.com's excellent book AIR-BORNE): (figure: academic.oup.com/aje/article/...)

'Iran’s capital must be moved because the country “no longer has a choice,” President Masoud Pezeshkian said on Thursday in remarks carried by state media, warning that severe ecological strain has made Tehran impossible to sustain' #Iran 🇮🇷

🇵🇸 🇨🇦 🧑‍🎓 Over 130 Gazan students who have been offered places at Canadian universities remain stranded in #Gaza, some waiting over 18 months for visas. Two students have already lost their lives. FRANCE 24's Jessica Le Masurier and Joanne Profeta report ⤵️

Quite a metaphor. 👀 "The blaze [sent] panicked delegates racing to evacuate...rain from a torrential downpour leaked into the meeting spaces...There were complaints about food shortages, & the air-conditioning struggled to keep up with the high heat..."

Quand la Russie bombarde l'Ukraine, jamais Le Monde ne titre : "le ministère de la Santé ukrainien fait état de tant de morts." Il indique le bilan dans le titre et en précise la source plus loin dans l'article. Il n'y a que pour les massacres de Palestiniens qu'il prend des pincettes dès le titre.

💚J'ai eu l'immense honneur et le plaisir d'illustrer les nouveaux panneaux "Refuges #LPO" déployés au niveau national par la LPO. J'ai réalisé 4 #illustrations pour 4 ambiances différentes : 🌾 Un îlot d'herbes hautes 🐸 Une mare 🍂 Une haie en automne 🏙 Un balcon aménagé

Unsurprisingly, Grok is spewing antisemitic and revisionist content on X to French speakers. I won't share it though.

JFC You can't make this stuff up.

The new stage of genocide denial: the genocide that never was is now over, according to the German government. ‘Germany will lift its partial embargo on weapons exports to Israel as of November 24 in a move dependent on the cease-fire, a government spokesman said.’ - Haaretz.

Hi, folks. I wrote about my buddy @leslieleeiii.bsky.social. He had #LongCOVID and passed away this week. Thanks for reading. adamumak.medium.com/leslie-lee-i...

Heartbroken to learn of Alice’s passing. I looked up to her immensely, and I was so grateful for her patience, grace, creativity, & insight as a collaborator. I will miss her fierce kindness & her sharp wit so very much. I drew this portrait of us in 2021 for CommunityAsHome. Rest in power, Alice.
