Daniel Lawson @DanielLaw1998: Disabled parking should only be valid during business hours 9 to 5, Monday to Friday. 

I cannot see any reason why people with genuine disabilities would be out beyond these times.

7 years later and I still whisper, “We’re disabled, Daniel, not werewolves” to myself like a sacred mantra whenever I see a non-disabled person discover ableism like it’s the latest hipster indie band.

McGovern: "A family making less than $50,000 a year? They get less than $1 a day in tax cuts. You can't buy a damn cup of coffee with that. But those making a million dollars or more? They'll get more than $250 a day in tax breaks ... that's how rigged this bill is to benefit the wealthy."

Ten scientific reasons in support of airborne transmission of SARS-CoV-2 Heneghan and colleagues' systematic review, funded by WHO, published in March, 2021, as a preprint, states: “The lack of recoverable viral culture samples of SARS-CoV-2 prevents firm conclusions to be...

Foundationally: sars-2 is AIRBORNE. We’ve known this for years. N95 respirators are designed to protect against aerosols. Medical masks aren't. Claiming they're equivalent was always questionable, and contrary to decades of occupational safety science.

Really sorry to hear about your job. “How’s it going” is triggering for so many people, facing things we wouldn’t necessarily know. I’ve been working to shift to another phrase, such as “it’s good to see you”. Honestly that’s what most of us mean when we ask “how’s it going.”

This isn’t to say that other countries have their own problems, but the way academics, scientists, and journalists will be targeted by the state is going to create a whole group of educated people that will need a home to continue their work.

IMPORTANT: If you live in the United States or Canada, you’ve probably heard Trump‘s constant claim that the United States is “subsidizing” Canada. It’s wrong of course, but here’s the best explanation I’ve seen about how & why it’s wrong. PLEASE WATCH & SHARE IT A LOT. Kudos to Andrew Chang & CBC.
