Starbucks CEO made $95M last year. The median worker made $14K. That’s a gap of 6,666 to 1.
This isn’t capitalism rewarding risk, it’s extraction on autopilot. Every empire ends with elites hollowing out the core. You’re watching it.

Science is hard. You gotta prove it, test it, and reproduce the results.
Pseudoscience is easy. You make it up, add some fear, and watch ignorant people spread it.

Abortion is healthcare.
If you aren’t a healthcare professional, you simply don’t have the requisite knowledge to argue otherwise, because yes - patient care really is that nuanced and tricky. That’s why there’s a whole ass professional school and extended training program to become a doctor.

Women’s rights are not a moral imperative — they’re a marketing strategy. Enough. Women are not props for diplomacy or branding tools for Vision 2030. They are not to be used, covered, and uncovered on command. morningstaronline.co.uk/article/used...

Casey Means is a grifter who dropped out of ENT residency to start a company selling glucose monitors to non-diabetics & a “health app.”
She doesn’t know basic science concepts, yet claims she’s a metabolism expert.
Incomplete ENT residency ≠ expert.
Of course she’s put up for Surgeon General.

Hey Canadian artists/writers!
CANADA COUNCIL FOR THE ARTS had a seminar on the upcoming changes to their grants and it sounds like
1) project limits will be reset and
2) they are enthusiastic for indigenous / racialized / lgbtq etc applicants
So: here are the few grant-writing tips I can offer!
