⬇️ This is a horrific tragedy fir the family and undoubtedly a MAJOR TRIAGE ERROR ⬇️

If you go to ER with chest pain you LOUDLY tell the triage nurse “I have crushing chest pain”.

Repeat this if you have to.

If they make you wait - go back and say in LOUD VOICE ‘my chest pain is worse. I am afraid’

With Canada's ER problem that is now in the global public eye, we can't afford to be flippant about preventable infectious diseases like COVID & influenza, because they contribute to surging capacity in ER. Airborne mitigations now
I am positive that severe overcrowding was a major factor in delays to care, and that his prolonged waiting did NOT improve anything in this pt's case.

The institutional response will be to try to blame one single HCW for this tragic outcome...

Fox News has undoubtedly already said that war is peace, it was their whole shtick at the start of the "War on Terror - fight them over there so we don't have to fight them over here" nonsense.

What @zackpolanski.bsky.social is saying here shouldn’t be considered a brave take, it should be a safe position. The fact that it is not speaks to how broken and self—centred our society has become.

Users are noticing Twitter/X has added a Grok-powered AI image editor that lets anyone edit any image on the platform, including other people’s artwork using text prompts.

Artists warn there’s no opt-out or consent, raising concerns over unauthorized edits and misuse.

Tonight my grandma mentioned that her sister-in-law can’t drive… because she got measles as a kid and sustained eye damage from that infection. When her SIL’s son was very ill recently this made it hard for her to get to the hospital. These measles outbreaks will affect some kids for life.

It's an unacceptable waste of space trash to burn up the ISS instead of salvaging a module or 3, or launching some of it to lunar orbit instead for practice if not for historical preservation.

Brutal. ExTwitter should be treated as a monopoly and owned by a billionaire hostile to Canadian interests. Yet the government won't even take Fox News off the air when it's called for a US invasion of Saskatchewan.

In the news business, we call this a “puff piece.” It’s about the Ellisons, an “intriguing partnership,” according to the NY Times, which seems more impressed by people’s bank accounts than anything else. The Ellisons are buying up media to prop up a dictator. That’s the news. 1/4 🧵

The Telegraph highlighting - yet missing - two vital points here.

1) We're not calling for £476m to be spent. It already is - this is about diverting it to actually helping.

2) Why "cruelty" in question? The £476m we're spending is part of an operation tear gassing babies.
