The autistic interest in wearing sunglasses indoors and out, day and night…

…give me your arguments for and/or against whether I should embrace this improvement to my daily existence.

Hey @ipaccanada.bsky.social, are you done Unmasking the Future yet? Or do you plan on dithering for a while longer before pretending you knew all along and giving yourselves more awards?

I realize it's embarrassing to admit you screwed up, but it's only going to get worse the more you delay.

It's been 2 yrs & 8 months now that the public needed 2 be made aware of this info

It’s not okay to be a grown adult with internet access in August 2025 and still believe that what we are seeing in Gaza is not a genocide.

In New Brunswick, we have a word for when an opinion columnist goes out of their way to smooth the edges of a nearly universally loathed politician and whitewashes that politician’s irredeemable track record through misleading headlines and yellow journalism:

Huras-ment

Interesting that Mr. Huras did not speak with Dawson to remind him that Canada does not have freedom of speech or of worship. That hate speech is illegal in Canada and ask for clarification on why he is quoting American rights and not Canadian as a MP. Printing exerts from a letter seems lazy

Blaming the victims of genocide for “starting it” by breaking out of a concentration camp is not a centrist position

I think it’s fun that I got to spend a bunch of my life being like “hey please don’t give me this virus. It’s really not just a cold” and everyone else just got to laugh at me about it and get me sick and now I’m sick forever.

Hi all. It’s tremendously important that between now and Aug 19 (deadline) that you provide public comment to CSA on the newest revisions to Z94.4: selection, use, and care of respirators. For the first time ever it includes healthcare. Must make CSA account. publicreview.csa.ca/Home/Details...

I treat *myself* differently, masking deeply and remaining as hidden as possible to avoid situations where my particular traits or profound disinterest in "normal" activities may be misperceived. A learned protective behaviour; scanning for threat and achieving safety by cultivating others' peace.

The takeaway is not that electoral politics will fix everything.

We know it won’t.

Obviously.

The takeaway is that people will show up if you give them hope & a way forward.

And that, my friends, can & must look like a lot of things right now.

Poster inviting residents of New Brunswick to attend a Clean Air Day event organized by the New Brunswick Mask Bloc. This event will take place on June 7th, 2025 from 12:30-2:30pm on the NB Legislature grounds. We will be building a few air filters that were generously donated and will be available to answer any questions you might have about helping your community gather in a safer way. The NB Mask Bloc will also be distributing free respirators and rapid tests - the rapid tests in limited quantities. The rain date for the event is the next day at the same time.

Please join us on June 7th to celebrate clean air day and the launch of our air filter lending library.

Masks are (super) strongly recommended and provided.

On my way back from the national public health conference. Not many people at all are talking about clean air to breathe (especially indoors). Only people I saw mention ASHRAE 241 were people I was with. Public health should be LOUD about IAQ.
