And not nearly the difficulty I expected. Special checkin required turned out not to be nearly the big deal. But #united app isn't great. #TTLC25 Huntington Beach here comes the #redtoque with my @TheWRP4LC .

Wondering why online discourse is so hostile? $10M in foreign money funding went to content creators attacking Canadian institutions, from healthcare to immigration. And researchers say this is just the tip of the iceberg. Read @jenstden.bsky.social in @thetyee.ca | https://buff.ly/3DKNu3Y

Print vs digital distribution is badly broken and it is making it hard for libraries to match demand. But it is just a bunch of bits and bytes. Per copy pricing is a ridiculous way to approach it. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Having just visited a castle that dates back to the 1100s, I can’t help but think this is what Musk and Trump want. A king, some lords, and everyone else living in fear and servitude.

I would suggest further that even when it is diagnosed it is often untreated. There are effective tools and often they are not deployed. Temel's research in #lungcancer shows supportive (palliative)care is more effective in extending life than some chemos!

"Perhaps the most important thing we bring to another person is the silence in us. Not the sort of silence that is filled with unspoken criticism or hard withdrawal. The sort of silence that is a place of refuge, of rest, of acceptance of someone as they are." Remon #redtoque

#lungcancer research receives less funding than many other cancers. Advocacy can change that. Help us raise funds and awareness. #LungCancerAwareness #redtoque In Canada 3% of research funding vs 25% for breast cancer. And yes I'm a breastie as well.
