I'm a completely smitten kitten for @JiaoyingSummers since I saw her live in Calgary by fluke/karma: • sees humour + hypocrisy in any situation • unfiltered potty mouth channels fearsome brain • insightful sarcasm on racism + sexism = sharp but not hurtful www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mbzr...

Even with children, when asked about climate change, she deflects to "clean air" and "clean water", then gently pushes the fear mongering with "to keep our lights on, and concludes with falsehood that USA extracts fossil fuels more cleanly than anyone else in the world. @jvipondmd.bsky.social

so you won't even be able to PAY to get a covid jab? US folks who can afford it can go abroad to get jabbed (miserable as that is) but most won't and this is going to breed more variants in the US making it even less appealing to visit. such a massive false economy

The @nejm.org is cratering its credibility by publishing an article by Prasad and Makary that contains factual errors about Canadian vaccination policy. They include a table implying Canadian COVID vaccine recommendations are limited to high risk groups. Read it and weep, liars. /1

They're not as veritas as my globally-anticipated Truth Social posts, but these tweets between @stadnek.bsky.social and me about my client @booshmeister.bsky.social are still 100% accurate. In fact, I may have violated the commercial secrecy from the Exclusive Agency Contract. Read the ALT text.

Although this post is 9 days old, I am happy to see Robson is still doing his data journalism with the clarity + diligence we came to know since early in COVID. Measles is likely a developing epidemic, perhaps pandemic, due to our failure in the "first world" to get immunized anywhere near enough.

Today will be the first #ableg Question Period without Nathan Cooper as Speaker. He announced at the end of QP yesterday that he has accepted a role in Washington, as offered by the Premier. He'll sit as an independent in the Leg until June when he leaves. Best! For the rest of us... #abpoli

It is possible my friend, and fluently bilingual elite goaltender @booshmeister.bsky.social would have some interest in this Team Canada Xitter announcement. I don't believe they have an account here. After all, he did secretly teach MAF everything he knows.* * No he didn't. I am a lying agent.

As of yesterday, Polymarket was basking in the press coverage from nearly every major news outlet on Earth as the leading indicator of who would be the next pope. Then the guy tracking at 0% won. Maybe we should stop using degenerate crypto gamblers as a source.
