nobody has asked me why I still mask. I kind of wish they would bc I have my rolodex of answers on the ready. first card is- Ah, thank you for asking! I wear an N95 respirator bc it's standard protocol with encountering a BSL-2 pathogen. they'd say, ma'am this is a grocery store. mask up! 😷🧡

I've had Medical professionals ask me why I'm wearing a mask. I am stunned every time that happens. We're supposed to trust these people with our lives? Bizarre. Insane. Terrifying.

Is it anxiety to wear a helmet on a motorcycle? Is it anxiety to wear a life jacket on a boat? Is it anxiety to wear a seatbelt? It’s smart to wear an N95 in a pandemic with a debilitating airborne virus. 😷

Wearing a mask and wanting to avoid Covid, Long Covid and all the damage the virus causes isn’t “Health Anxiety” it’s just plain old Survival Instinct. Keep up the great work Violet Affleck.

I’m worried they can.

Having a medical practitioner ask why we're still wearing masks was a surreal mindf*ck! Couldn't decide if I wanted to rage &/or curl into a ball & weep. *COVID *RSV *INFLUENZA *MEASLES *TB ***They are NOT over Wear a mask to protect yourself and others 😷 #COVIDisAirborne #WearAMask

The Office of Long COVID Research and Practice will close as soon as this week, according to an internal HHS email obtained by Inside Medicine. This is the opposite of what you would do if you were genuinely interested in finding treatments for chronic diseases, as RFK claims.

Canada is our country. We are not giving it up to a gangster. The world is watching Canada. If Donald Trump can threaten us and take away our nation, he can do it to anybody. Donald thought we would be pushovers. He has a lesson coming. #elbowsup www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Imagine believing your child was “killed” just because they don’t identify with the sex they were born with. A real father would love their child unconditionally.

In this election I’m not running against Conservatives, New Democrats, or Greens. I’m running for Canada against Pierre Poilievre. We can do this, but we need to do it together. #FanjoyVsPoilievre #TogetherWeCan #CarletonDeservesBetter

Are you Canadian & live in a riding that's likely to go Con despite your best efforts & vote? Any Canadian can donate to Bruce Fanjoy's campaign via the Carleton Liberal Riding Assoc'n - he's running vs Pierre Poilievre in Carleton (near Ottawa) & he has a fighting chance. www.brucefanjoy.ca

The estimated cost of hospitalizations from this week's infections in Ontario is $50.0M. Hospitalizations are expected to require 9.9% of Ontario's staffed hospital beds for three weeks (CIHI: average duration of COVID hospitalizations).

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: I am here today to urge Canadians to avoid travel to the United States if at all possible and to call on our government to stand up for our citizens who are being denied their rights through arbitrary detention in the United States.

It is not normal, sane, or legal to threaten another sovereign nation.

I'll just also add, *don't* visit America. This Congress just passed a new law called the Lakin Riley Act, and it's...no words are bad enough. Basically, any 'alien' (non citizen) can now be arrested here and detained, without trial or deportation, indefinitely. No recourse at all. Don't come.

I can never keep this straight - do the tariffs move forward or back tonight?

It’s sad to say this, and Carney is going to make an incredible PM, but this Canadian existential crisis was made for Trudeau to lead us through. We’re so fortunate to have a qualified person like Carney waiting in the wings, but everyone who pushed Trudeau out should be ashamed.

I can't really convey how it feels to be stabbed in the back by the US and the UK after Canada has *always* stepped up for them whenever they've needed us, up to and and including fighting and dying at their side. Betrayal doesn't begin to describe it.

The disgraceful behaviour in the White House is not about Trump or Vance. It is about the complicity of the entire political class of the United States and the American media. It is about the very soul of America. They either stand up for democracy or they stand for tyranny. The world is watching.

Here's his suit!

WATCH: “I don’t give a fuck what the wears… Forgive us. I can’t believe what I just witnessed in our White House.” Powerful reaction to Trump & Vance ambushing Zelenskyy as Marge Greene’s bf Brian Glenn attacked him for not wearing a suit. Full: www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2HmYxmH/

Here I react to the shameful behavior of American leaders and media toward the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share. snyder.substack.com/p/five-failu...

Here is my latest reflection. The attack on President Zelenskyy shattered the last of our wishful thinking. Many countries hoped that if they fawned over him, he would pick on someone else. Now we know: that we either stand up or get dragged into the abyss. charlieangus.substack.com/p/the-washin...
