When I see a famous name trending, I can’t help but brace for news of their death. So glad #BillyJoel hasn’t died but am sad to hear of his health issues. His music has been in the background of so much of my life, his songs kindling especially fond memories of my dearly-departed mother-in-law.

FUCK YOU. Do you hold the Zionist movement to account when Israel carpet bombs hospital and forces babies to be born without brains? Or when Palestinian American children are drowned fatally in swimming pools, or when Jewish anti Zionists are beaten up by Zionist mobs?

Canadians: Use this @leadnowca.bsky.social form to be connected by phone with your MP’s office so you can advocate for a full arms embargo. Threats aren’t enough. Action can’t wait. Canada must take strong action to stop Israel’s #genocide of Palestinians. win.newmode.net/leadnow/arms...

I don’t know why Israel starving babies was the breaking point and not bombing, shooting and torturing Palestinians the last 19 months, but now that you’re here, pressure your govt to sanction Israel with an arms embargo and end this genocide, not just make dramatic statements.

Don’t let the entire province become the rights-infringing mess that we have in #stevendelduca’s Vaughan where people cannot, for example, protest crimes (inc war crimes!) when they are committed in houses or worship. Tell your MPP to say no to Bill 16 actionnetwork.org/letters/d461...

If non disabled people would just believe us when we tell them there’s no solution, no support and no easy answer … we could probably change the world. They’re always sure it’s a failure on our part. They cling to the comfortable lie that help always comes, and we suffer.

So much WTAF “Our drummer, Yamal Said, who is a Mexican citizen and lawful permanent resident of the United States (green card holder), was forcibly removed from our flight on… May 12. He has not been released, and we have been unable to contact him.” #Resist fascism! www.vice.com/en/article/l...

If convincing people to get the measles vaccine is ‘slow going’ this calls for a vaccine-PLUS approach. Kids/Educators/Bus drivers have the right to NOT get infected, especially those at high risk. Vaccine-PLUS means: +masks +air filtration +ventilation +more! globalnews.ca/news/1117224...

Since I was a 70s baby, I had my measles titers checked - no immunity. I took care of that with a booster. All you GenXers out there, please find out if you need another MMR shot.

Next week, I will be writing about Dr. Vinay Prasad for @mcgilloss.bsky.social. Please reply with any write-up/podcast/video that exposes important things the public should know about him. (FYI I have @joho.bsky.social's book We Want Them Infected, which is a treasure chest.)

Israel is starving #Gaza. Israel & its IOF/IDF are also committing countless other flagrant violations of the #GenevaConventions, aka war crimes. Shame on #Canada, the US and other nations letting Israel commit endless horrific #WarCrimes with impunity. ihl-databases.icrc.org/en/ihl-treat...

#PressRelease: The #CCLA condemns #Bill5 as it “enables the executive branch of the government to unilaterally do away with legal safeguards that protect vulnerable communities and Indigenous people, paving the way for corporations to bypass labour and environmental laws.” ccla.org/press-releas...

Agree. Anyone expecting CMOH to be more than a ventriloquist puppet of Premier & Minister of Health, doesn’t understand the chain of command (CMOH is an ADM) nor the comms gag ball & golden handcuffs our CMOH wears. Moore says only what his bosses’ dictate. This is 100% their messaging.

My employer is threatening to cancel my contract if I continue to mask at work. Does anyone know of any #disability rights resources in Canada, specifically in Quebec? I am devastated, and I feel completely lost right now.

Israel has completely wiped out Rafah, turning a fifth of Gaza's territory into a giant buffer zone. This is part of Israel's plan to permanently remain in Gaza and facilitate the ethnic cleansing of its people. mondoweiss.net/2025/04/rafa...
