You can provide feedback to NS health here. Note: NS health still gives 1 free box of 5 rapid tests to people who request them. Jealous of that. This AI situation not so much. research-study.nshealth.ca/surveys/?s=3... #NSPoli

I hope people in NS fight back against this, and win. NS Health is marketing an AI chat bot as a RELIABLE source of info to PREVENT infection. This is straight from the marketing. But it was trained on droplet dogma and claims COVID spreads by droplets predominantly. This is unacceptable. /1

This is the Nova Scotia Government's health care "fix." It's irresponsible, and demonstrates a complete disregard for Nova Scotians and their health.

sabotage corrupt systems every chance you get
every way you can throw sand in the gears, do it
refuse to comply with -ist/-phobic rules
keep yourself + others healthy via masks/vax
strike, protest, unionize, mutual aid
starve companies by removing your $$/attention
protect each other however you can

"The pandemic of Covid-19 is over" is a lie.

"Covid-19 is no worse than a cold" is a lie.

"Repeated infections of Covid-19 build immunity" is a lie.

"Covid-19 is not harmful to children" is a lie.

"Because of Covid vaccines, we no longer have to worry about Covid-19" is a lie.

"Hey we're sorry... we're doing it anyways because it's gonna make lots of money... but we're sorry"

cancel it!! Refund the tickets!! Apologizing but still doing it is less than an empty gesture! it is actively being complicit while pretending you're not!! Bear the consequences of cancelling it!!

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Hadeel. Before the war Hadeel’s husband was a fisherman and they tried for 11 years before they had their first child Hani who is 10 now they also have a daughter Dana, 6 and little Adam who is just 2. They’re displaced and struggling.

Some cuteness from the archives.

Finally, and this is the most important point, international observers and press MUST BE PERMITTED ENTRY INTO GAZA IMMEDIATELY.

We need a full accounting of the horrors of this genocide. The laughably implausible death toll of 60,000 must be corrected. It's time for the truth.

aww this is so sweet and lovely! 💖

Five and half years since we’ve known covid is transmitted by aerosols and a provicial health authority has released an AI chat bot that disseminates droplet disinformation.

Nurse Hammam has had to create yet another new account - please follow him at @hammanurse1.bsky.social, engage and donate if you can + share his GFM:

Another boat from the Freedom Flotilla has been intercepted by Israel and crew members are missing.

Wishing you so much good luck! 🍀

Doaa started this fundraiser mainly for her sister who is really struggling mentally after the death of her husband and son. Doaa and her husband have been trying to help her as much as they can but they are displaced now 💔

Donations have stopped and my family is suffering. Please share. My family is suffering every day without your support.🗣️🙏🏻🙏🏻
الرجاء دعم عائلتي 🙏🏻

section of text from South Side Weekly's coverage, which says: "The building was purchased by Wisconsin-based investor Trinity Flood in January 2020, according to Cook County records. On October 1, the day after the raid, a judge reviewed an emergency motion from Wells Fargo seeking to appoint Matthew Tarshis of Frontline Real Estate Partners as the property’s receiver. Flood purchased three multifamily properties in South Shore in 2020. The neighborhood, which had the highest number of eviction filings in Chicago from 2015-2019 according to the Law Center for Better Housing, has seen a rise in outside real estate investors since the 2017 announcement of the Obama Presidential Center’s construction in the neighboring Jackson Park. Wells Fargo Bank foreclosed on the building in mid-2024, bringing a $27 million lawsuit against Flood for missed loan payments. In late 2024, the City began closing its largest migrant shelters and, through state funding assistance distributed via Catholic Charities and moving support from New Life Church, relocated many families to buildings such as this one."

We know more about the massive military-style raid on a Chicago housing complex thanks to the reporting of @southsideweekly.bsky.social, @blockclubchi.bsky.social, and neighborhood resident Eboni Watson who chronicled the event. Among the emerging questions: what's real estate's role in this?

More reporting about how that ICE raid in South Shore might have been as much about evicting all the residents of the building for Wells Fargo as it was to kidnap migrants without due process.

if you bank or do any business with Wells Fargo, I hope you look for a new bank today.

"Psychotic" is not a synonym of "vicious, malevolent, nasty, cruel, heinous, atrocious, despicable, fiendish, inhumane, uncontrolled," or any number of other words that are both more accurate and not ableist.

Normalize not using "psychotic" as a synonym for dangerous.

this post has 7k likes now and nobody except me just now opting to push back against this wording, so just to reiterate: psychotic is a medical term that suggests scared, confused, cognitively struggling, experiencing delusions and hallucinations. not evil, dangerous, cruel, sadistic, or organized

Psychosis is also common! Stigmatizing it isn’t helpful.

We see it in folks who are manic, who’ve used a lot of stimulant drugs, who have a brain issue like Huntington’s, or who have an endocrine issue. (Among many other causes.)

It’s a thing that we can treat. It doesn’t define anyone!

中秋節快樂! 🥮 Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!

To celebrate, it would mean a lot to support @divyampersaud.com’s current birthday drive for Spark Space, a workspace in Gaza that is STILL supporting students and workers.

I’ve donated £10 - can you match me?

I'm directly linking his fundraiser because Palestinian accounts are once again being mass deleted by bluesky.

This is huge. They can't intercept everyone and keep their eyes on everything all at once. The more people who go, the more chance we have to aid Gaza. The more people who go the more pressure there is on govts to send backup or speak out against intercepting their citizens
