I wish there was a way to form a community network to support disabled people in healthcare. A buddy system so no one has to go alone. A resource to help you navigate insurance red tape. A healthcare expert to help you find the right specialists. A medico legal expert to assist with complaints.

The more I find out about the music choices and event/troop order and timing the more I am drawn to the theory that this was a masterful double-middle-finger salute from the commanding officers. Absolutely everything he asked for, done sloppily and with a sarcastic sound track. Splendid.

It took me less than 5 minutes to write an email to send. Let Brian Jean and the government know how you feel about coal mining in the Alberta rockies. #ABPOLI #ableg

Listen #Canada. Water scarcity is hurting Alberta & the globe is thirsty. Dani & ‘Becca are talking interbasin water transfers as a way out, forgetting about ecological health as usual. The UCP is ignoring warnings & voters partnering with US O&G, AUS Coal & Foreign Data Co’s selling our future!

“I live in the oilsands. You can’t tell me what I’m concerned about & what I’m not concerned about. I’m very concerned about our Earth & our planet" 🤯🤦 -Minister of Energy & Minerals Brian Jean, defending his approval of a coal mine while Alberta burns. #cdnpoli #ableg globalnews.ca/news/1123762...

HOWEVER... I'm up for it. We gotta do something about all this legacy contamination.

Banff's elected member of the Alberta Legislature has some strong - and, hopefully, effective - words about coal mining on the Eastern Slopes. Albertans need to speak up and the government needs to listen.

If I was an investigative journalist, I would be digging into who is funding the 'Citizens Supportive of Crowsnest Coal' group in Alberta.

Somewhere nearby there is a high-pitched beep that goes off approximately once every minute. It echoes through the alley and I can't tell exactly where it's coming from except not right here?? But it is really annoying!

Danielle Smith claiming Covid vaccines don't work, a dangerous lie but it's what you get when your medical degree is awarded by Facebook and you appoint yourself the province's top 'doctor'. Alberta, where we have medicalness instead of medicine #abpoli #yyc #yeg #yql #abhealth #cdnpoli

This paragraph stopped me in my tracks “John Hoffman… entered state politics after he struggled to obtain insurance for his daughter, who has spina bifida. He figured others were having the same difficulty” He entered politics to help people get healthcare coverage. He got shot 9 times

That Boelter guy sure looks alive, heathly and unbeaten for a dude who literally shot at the cops as he escaped on Saturday AM.

I was just watching the testimony of the computer programmer who testified in front of the court in New York and he admitted to writing a prototype to be able to override elections without anyone knowing.

In New York, the Nassau County mask ban law makes wearing a mask punishable by a $1,000 fine or up to a year in prison. The nonprofit org. Disability Rights NY brought a class action lawsuit against the county in 2024; it was dismissed by a federal judge. 🧵1/3 www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

"First responders" needs to be abolished from style guides because its purpose is to smuggle cops into a category that includes EMTs and firefighters. The phrase is deliberate copaganda that allows abusers to borrow an aura of respectability from other groups.

Never forget: Pet cats are one of THE most effective ways ever discovered by which we (yes, we humans) exterminate native wildlife, continually, on an inconceivable scale, all over the planet.

Hmm... Book: LOTR He gave me the editions that were moldering in the basement (but I had to go find newer ones b/c the pages kept blowing away 😂) Movie: Robin Hood Prince of Thieves TV show: MASH unintentionally b/c I'd sneak out of bed to watch it with him. Dr Who intentionally; Tom Baker FTW!

I remember, probably around 2010, when I was still very politically confused and naive, noticing the rise of cops talking about the rest of us “civilians” (thereby positioning themselves as.. not), and it was one of those early things that made me realize something fucked up was afoot
