NEW: A searing editorial in the The Kyiv Independent. “It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up. “A president just disrespected America in the Oval Office. It wasn’t Zelensky.” @kyivindependent.com

We thought we were lucky when only Molly could jump on the counters. The girls have been here 6mths & Molly has been able to do the leap the whole time. Her twin sis, Mazey was just a late bloomer it seems. She figured out how to today. Now she won't stop. Must catch up on all missed! #catsofbluesky

Are you unhappy with Doug Ford but not voting? You’re helping him win. Opposition parties need to stop splitting the anti-Ford vote. Every vote counts. Every vote cast against Ford makes it harder for him to win. #OnPoli

What doctors wish patients knew about #RheumatoidArthritis "#RA is not just bad arthritis. It’s also systemic. It can attack your lungs and kidneys and you can get vasculitis." 🔗 www.ama-assn.org/delivering-c...

Ophthopedia Update: Vision-Threatening Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis May Relapse Without Ongoing Therapy: The NEI cautions about a potentially high risk of disease recurrence in children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis–associated uveitis who pause adalimumab treatment. #Ophthalmology #News

There is nothing cuter than a kitten who has killed her first dirty wad tissue and singing while she proudly presents it to you, her most prized possession. (I just wish it wasn't dropped on my mouth at 3am.) I am thankful it isn't mice at least. Mazey is a fierce huntress indeed!

If you saw someone being sexually harassed on the bus, would you know how to help? If you witnessed transphobia at a coffee shop, would you feel safe to step in and de-escalate? If not, give me 1 hour of your time and I'll teach you effective intervention - it's free! Feb 17 Noon EST

they say "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger" well i don't want to be strong, i want to drink iced coffee and read books and take naps.

Canada may not be for sale, but we sure as hell know Doug Ford is: 1) wealthy developers were promised Greenbelt 2) Ont Place gifted to Therme Spa & a publicly funded $700M garage 3) private surgical clinics which cost us 20-40% higher fees 4) gamblers, drivers, drinkers

This video of Charlie Angus MP (Timmins-James Bay) in the Canadian House of Commons, is fire. I highly recommend it.. 🇨🇦

If you want to control the price of eggs, you need to control bird flu. And the worst thing you can do if you want to control bird flu is censor scientists and scrub CDC data.

It’s a reminder that Trans people make up around 1.2% of the global population, less so in the United States. Where our fight has gone inside the so-called United States has grown far greater than any defense work we can manage on our own. Our work requires solidarity, including yours.

Reposting with the AltText I missed off the last one: There is a creature called a Leaf Sheep, it looks like this, and I promise it's real: www.livescience.com/animals/leaf... I hope that helps offset everything going on right now, just a bit.

There are 510,000 NCAA athletes. Less than ten are transgender. The GOP doesn’t care about protecting women. They celebrate and empower men who assault women. They force pregnant women to carry their rapist’s child to term. They target a tiny, vulnerable community to scare us and consolidate power.

We need less reactions to the fascists and more resistance to them. This is a gentle reminder (to myself) to stop reacting online & start finding ways to organize and resist offline. Everyone online is either already aware of the nightmare or actively participating in it. We need action offline.

Hubby was taking too long getting cat breakfast so Mazey decided to take matters into her own paws...

Trump³⁴ is notorious for creating chaos/ problems then walking back in to act like a hero because he "fixed" 'em TikTok is one such example Trump lead the fight to ban TikTok because he feared the power of the app in his election bids. MAGA Congress & SCOTUS backed him GASLIGHTING 101

This was fun youtu.be/TMtGImlEmu0?...

Woke up to the most amazing email. SI injections finally scheduled for March. Relief (for 3mths ish anyway) is in sight! #rheumatoidarthritis

Your kids are sick all the time because public health leaders chose to let it happen. There are details, and there are more in-depth explanations, but in the end that's what it boils down to. They listened to their egos instead of experts, and made bad choices. canadahealthwatch.ca/2025/01/11/w...

I have to give a training presentation in 1hr. On what exactly I am not certain. The request invite was just train us please. 🤔

Today I was minding my own business, reviewing some spreadsheet for work when suddenly my 9ft Money Tree (Pachira) lands on my head. Any guesses why? Thank goodness her sister doesn't have enough oomph in her rump to also be able to climb trees or I may not survive kitten teen-hood. (They're 7mths)

And in Ontario Doug has re-directed funds from the federal government that were supposed to help pay for healthcare to general coffers so he can point to our balanced budget. $4 Billion dollars has disappeared and we have 2.5 million people without a doctor, hallway hospital care and closed ERs.

LA fires are a good reminder that the only difference between me and any refugee is luck.

Asian countries handled COVID better as they acted on lessons from previous outbreaks such as SARS, doing hard work on policies such as normalizing mask wearing. Western countries are recklessly doing the opposite & making us more vulnerable to future pandemics by stigmatizing & banning masks.
