EM doc. Burner. Mom. All views my own, except for those that aren’t. My only regret is that I have bonitis.
4.8 magnitude earthquake just hit the west coast (incl Vancouver), centred 27km from Sechelt.

I’ve never gotten under my sturdy wooden table so fast in my life!

Look for the helpers. Always look for them, they are *always* there.
Never let anyone tell you that no one cares.

Ok fellow canucks, who are we following to get our news on this site? (Preferably *not* tainted by billionaires, if you please)?

“Birds aren’t real” is an excellent analogy for how we feel, in fact!
I don’t think non physicians realize how for real physicians, vaccines is a controversy like flat earth or creationism or birds aren’t real

"No true Scotsman" actually holds here

it's hard to really describe how baffling this is, how frustrating its been to see grow and how high the price will be
Here is how we know that vaccines do not cause autism
The facts are available, if you look for them

Do not dunk. Do not quote-post. Do not screenshot and repost.
They wish to be visibly cruel because it makes them feel big and strong.

Block them with the most powerful block button we've had on social media to save yourself the energy, and save others from the garage being spread
Just be prepared. We've all seen that headline going around today that Bluesky is the current #1 app, and X dropped out of the top 25.

That means the absolute worst people in the world are going to be coming here trying to turn THIS place into just as much of a shithole. Block them. Don't engage.

You can try to wiggle around this truth and handwave it as much as you like, but it remains a truth: we let companies kill innocent people because it's profitable for them to do so, and then we try to pretend that's not what happens.

UHC is an *amazing* example of this.

Vigilantism should be the last refuge for those who cannot obtain justice (NOT vengeance) by any other means. The fact that so many people are celebrating now simply reflects our felt truth: it is the only justice available for the corporate murder y’all call health insurance in the US.

Anyone else getting REAL TIRED of unprecedented times? Why the fuck can’t we just have some nice calm precedented times??

Although I guess recessions and depressions are technically precedented. Just not for this ridiculous reasoning.
Trump announces that on his first day in office, he’s going to put a 25% tariff on Mexico and Canada and an extra 10% tariff on China.

Stock up on whatever you need before January 20 - everything is about to get more expensive. Groceries, cars, medications, all of it.

If you vote for PP in the next election in CAN in 2025, expect mass layoffs with his cuts, because it will happen, it has happened with every other CON PM, look at history, they make cuts to social programs, & services across the country. Voting for him because you hate the other, is just laziness.

Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance. Each year, the trans community loses too many lives, especially trans women of color, to hate and violence.

More than ever, we must stand by our trans family and support them, hold space for them, and insist the scapegoating and targeting stop.

Now.

I’ve watched this over and over and over, and I don’t think I will ever get tired of it, or of the warm glow it gives me. Fucking. Yes. Tear that fucker up and burn it to the ground.
MOOD FOR THE NEXT FOUR FUCKING YEARS.

The Liberals require every candidate to be pro choice, the CPC does not. They are working to make abortion illegal, which everyone should care about because a) it’s a human right and b) eroding abortion access is a step towards fascism.
This is from the CPC Party policy declaration, they are not pro-choice

Check your block lists carefully. Some of them are being used to silence activists and scholars (esp POC).
