News & Media β€” The National Association of Friendship Centres (NAFC)

The National Association of Friendship Centres press release on Budget 2025.

Colonizer Carney's failure to renew UPIP will harm over 55% of the total population of Indigenous people in Canada.

And the $200 million annual UPIP provides many more services.

All gone.

Key points in below thread.

That's a really neat design, and taking four years of regular exposure to notice it is kind of a vibe.

This Physicist Says We Don’t Take COVID Seriously Enough | The Tyee We downplay the virus at our peril, warns Yaneer Bar-Yam. And children are more at risk than we thought.

Covid poses an "existential threat to human health".

Every infection increases the risk of heart disease, stroke, diabetes, dementia, dysregulation of the immune system and reactivation of viral infections.

Children are having Long COVID.

Does anyone know a doctor anywhere in North America who could assess someone with severe GI damage from multiple infections, worsened by Rituximab/prolonged oral prednisone, malnutrition (including severe Thiamine deficiency), and autoimmune neuropathy?

How fucking DARE you add to your immune system's load without filing the proper paperwork in advance?

I think our immune systems might be cats, somehow, just constantly offended at our desire to do anything that may even mildly inconvenience them.

Fatigue is a completely ridiculous symptom that several ailments I have cause.

Sleeping right, resting, eating well, taking my meds, barely enough energy to get off the couch.

At least the cat enjoys the low interruption lap time.

Friends, I’ve personally relied on SNAP and as a lawyer I’ve fought for EBT benefits for others.

Please do not, I beg of you, take legal advice about public benefits from randoms on social media.

Seeing a nontrivial amount of *incorrect* advice and claims on the TL

I’m a drug use researcher and I’m here to assure you in very strong terms that blasting boats to smithereens is not an β€œanti-drug strategy” in any way, form, or fashion.

Image from the Oregonian of ICE dragging a disabled man by his feet in Portland

This image needs to be in every mainstream news outlet

It’s why I spend so much of my advocacy on ICE & the militarization of US cities

It’s a disability justice issue

They’re literally targeting disabled people because we’re easy marks

ICE will disable more people with their vicious attacks.

Yesterday I was woken up by a cat gently licking my chin while sharing my pillow, which sounds cuter and like something that could go horribly wrong for you given the sheer mass of felinity you have living there.

I am begging the mainstream media to talk less about the East Wing & more about the loss of SNAP funding for the next few days.

The East Wing is gone. We can’t change that.

We *can* help people prepare for the loss of SNAP.

We can urge folks to donate to food banks.

We can give them warning.

There's a reason I finally got my brows tattooed a few years ago. Doing my makeup takes so much less time now.

That said we can sit down and talk brow techniques and products if you like!

Health Canada puts out guidelines recommending N95s and clean indoor air!

Let’s do this!

Yes it’s overdue, and no it doesn’t address every risk factor, but we can significantly curb COVID with respirator use and clean air.

The story of La Befana, for those of you who don’t know it, goes like this:

La Befana was a little old lady who lived alone. Before she went to bed every evening, she would sweep the walkway to her house all the way down the walkway and then all the way up the walkway.

YouTube video by KHOU 11 Vigil held for Emmanuel Gonzalez Garcia, the teen being held in federal custody

There was a vigil tonight for Emmanuel Garcia, the 15 year old autistic boy being held in custody as an unaccompanied minor.

He’s not unaccompanied.

His mother is in Houston and desperately wants him returned home.
