First #halfmarathon in the books! Was more fun than I thought. The #running community is the best. Spectators were surprisingly motivating! Especially the power up posters.

This book should be required reading, it’s about how women are ignored when it comes to many aspects of society. By the end I was exhausted but everything was so important. I liked how it is read by the author. Invisible Women: Data Bias in a World Designed for Men by Caroline Criado Perez #booksky

This is incredibly hard to read but important to acknowledge and share.
How Iran’s government has weaponized sexual violence against women who dare to resist
How Iran’s government has weaponized sexual violence against women who dare to resist
The Iranian state seemingly perceives dissenting women not merely as disobedient citizens but as bodies that have escaped control and refused their assigned status of possession.

Thirty-eight of 43 experts cut last month from the boards that review the science and research that happens in laboratories at the National Institutes of Health are female, Black or Hispanic, according to an analysis by the chairs of a dozen of the boards.
Women, minorities fired in purge of NIH science review boards

First big #run in a long time with no ice and snow! One of my longest runs at 12km not including races starting to get ready for my first #halfmarathon. Super pumped! Also thank you BlueSky #running community for shoe recommendations. These @saucony.bsky.social shoes are a game changer.

As if Mike Myers wasn’t already a legend, him wearing a “CANADA IS NOT FOR SALE” t-shirt solidifies it. #SNL

#Trump managed to galvanize Canada at a time when we have been very divided and now with his horrendous treatment of #Zelensky he is going to do the same thing for the rest of the world. I think he is underestimated how pissed of he is collectively making people.

This is Winston Churchill visiting the White House during World War II.
Funny how he isn’t wearing a suit either. Almost like he was a wartime leader defending his country from being slaughtered and wiped out by an authoritarian aggressor.

Watching this terrible video of #Zelensky having to deal with that barbarian #Trump reminded me of the story from Alfred in the Dark Knight.

The worst part about BlueSky #running and #runners is seeing all of the amazing places people are running all over the world that aren’t snow covered trails right not. Bah! What I would do to be running in shorts and a t-shirt these days. Won’t complain about the snowshoeing through the woods though

Measles high infection rate is the reason we have not yet been able to eradicate it. That rate means you need a very high vaccination rate to prevent outbreaks. It is possible, but not with current levels of institutional distrust.
The average person with the flu gives it to around 1.4 people. The average person with measles gives it to between 12 and 18 people.
Measles cases continue to surge globally, putting millions of children at risk.
More than 10 million people globally were infected with measles in 2023, a 20% increase from the previous year.
