If a whereabouts violation ban is the end of Penny Oleksiak as an elite swimmer - and people in swimming think it is - then her legacy is that she changed swimming in this country, and was the best swimmer we had produced, and then things slowly fell apart.

The numbers seem to be getting bigger. When I started the painting of the day challenge, I really didn't think it would continue this long, but, there you go. This morning, I painted number 2100. This, by the way, is day 2076 and I have done more than one a day on some days. Camping and residencies have led to doing several when the opportunity presented itself.

I watched the Monday Night Football game, and
@espn.com
played Queen tunes to begin many of the breaks to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the release of Night at the Opera... without once mentioning that today is the 34th anniversary of the death of Freddie Mercury. Is that because he was gay?

Any mention of privatization should always be accompanied by this warning, like the warnings on a pack of cigarettes. Privatization is HARMFUL and results in more deaths.

The President of the United States is publicly calling for the political prosecution of his political opponents, urging the death penalty because they urged soldiers to uphold the rule of law. This should be front page news everywhere. It is not, which tells much about how we got to this point.

What is done instead is post-hoc cohort studies. And post-hoc cohort studies have shown that gender affirming care works, that puberty blockers are safe & generally reversible, that HRT works. All with lower regret rates than i.e. nose jobs & appendectomies

So is Mark Carney going to go along with the suspension of human rights by MAGA government in Alberta? You cant' do nation-building by allowing an autocratic government to suspend the charter rights of citizens. Just say no Mark. it's pretty straightforward.
