Mostly posting the breakdown of society, public health & the planet; some art, culture, nature, science. Since Sept 2023. Toronto/Tkaronto, Turtle Island Banner: B&W photo of Johnny Cash, PFP covering his middle finger PFP: DCAP in style of LOVE pop art
Begging Paris to stay cool and not undo all of Hidalgo's good work 😮💨🙏
It's just nice to see the left getting shit done somewhere, ya know?
Do y'all remember before the internet, when people thought the cause of stupidity was the lack of access to information?
Yeah, it wasn't that.

ONDP leader Marit Stiles on Doug Ford's proposed FOI changes: "These changes just simply shield Doug Ford and his government from accountability over things like the Greenbelt carve up, all of the preferential treatment that they've been giving to companies."
I use these sensors and recommend them despite problems like this, but this recall should have been *much* more widely reported (and indeed they should have the app alert people). If you use Libre3s, check freestylecheck.com to make sure yours aren't affected.
Responsibility has been shifted to us, but “you do you” doesn’t work as public health strategy for a disabling and deadly virus in a society where we need to rely on others to stay safe. How is it an informed decision to mask or vax or not if we don’t have all the facts about the risks of Covid?
Clearly public health & medical institutions do not want to take responsibility for a virus govts let run rampant to protect the economy instead of us. Public health & med pros still negligent in their duty to inform & prevent disease & illness. Whatever happened to Hippocratic oath “Do no harm”?
This is devastating. Check your meters, tell your loved ones to check theirs
If people knew the whole truth about Covid harm, would they still choose to huff air that will disable and kill them early instead of mask? Would they choose to be too sick to work to support their family? Would they knowingly harm their kids by sending them to school without demanding clean air?
If we cleaned the air of viruses with HEPA air filtration, Far UVC light, screened for illness, had paid sick days to prevent spread then we could reduce chains of transmission and more people who can’t mask, are in cancer recovery, kids & babies would not be forcibly maimed or killed by Covid
Without a universal Covid vaccine or clean air in all public spaces, yes, it’s my position that we should all mask at work, school, hospitals, airports to prevent infection from a virus that causes respiratory, vascular & immune system damage, leading to chronic illness, disability and early death.
So far, the first day of Spring in Toronto is shaping up to be a typical first day of Spring in Toronto. #AllTheWeather #dlws
Do those of you who don’t mask to prevent Covid infections now know you’ll just be forced to mask when you’re chronically ill with Long Covid later?
Don’t worry, nobody’s going to actually force you to mask. You’ll still be able to exercise your choice to continue dying earlier from Long Covid.
“I would have masked forever if I'd known it was to take away my favorite favorite all time love in life. It is down played so much and the numbers are suggesting ~30% of people get #LongCovid and that's just the ones who made the connection.”

On #LongCovidAwarenessDay — I think the most important thing to understand is that it’s still happening:
“I got COVID for a 3rd time in 2025 (I'm vaxed, boosted & took paxlovid)... Boom #LongCovid. Can't climb due to PEM. I haven't climbed in almost a year.”
“COVID… is still causing disability.“
The Pandemic You Can’t Remember is the Pandemic I Can’t Forget #COVID
People say "you don't look sick."
That's because you don't see the 23.5 hours I spend in bed to get those 30 minutes sitting.
Long COVID isn't invisible. You're just not looking.

We’ve reached the “AI will take the jobs of the tech innovators implementing AI” stage of the AI bubble. Leopards, faces, you know how it goes.
If you know 9 people in Canada, at least 1 of them has it.
If you guessed Long COVID, you’d be right.
~10% of people in Canada have Long COVID, an illness which can be brutal & also crushingly lonely
(If you guessed diabetes you’d also be right but people don’t pretend that doesn’t exist)
The other irony is they’ll end up having no choice but to mask all the time when they’re chronically ill, have ME/CFS, cancer etc to protect their baseline health so they don’t get sicker/die because their immune system can’t protect them anymore
Mask in public now 😷 and save yourself all that harm
ALL the diseases coming out to play now that people no longer vaccinate themselves or their kids for anything anymore. Plus repeat Covid infections have weakened everyone’s immune system making them prone to catching illnesses and spreading them.
And you’re still going to stick to not masking? 😷
Good to hear! I’ll keep my eye out for new videos
Oh god this made me laugh so hard. Watch til the end.
folks if the LA times is acknowledging covid as an ongoing mass disabling event it is definitely an ongoing mass disabling event
And most doctors won’t link them either because they aren’t keeping up with Covid research. 😞
Yes! And to over 200 other health issues. People will never link their diabetes, liver damage, cancer, cardiovascular disease, early dementia etc to the repeat Covid infections they think are no big deal 😞
Well, that video is from a year and a half ago, I don’t know if she’s back. Maybe she’s on IG? She’s amazing, I love her videos. Breaks things down in an easy to understand way while citing her sources. And so entertaining and not boring, I wish more people knew about her
Beware the Ides of Long Covid Awareness Month. Wear N95 in public spaces, clean the air in schools, workplaces, your home when guests are over. And watch Lola Germs’ entertaining video about Long Covid so you’re aware of why it’s important to prevent every Covid infection. It can happen to anyone 😷
