I want every Canadian on here to read this 🧵 I can’t believe some of the shit I hear from y’all about healthcare. The out-of-pocket costs will bankrupt you. So I encourage every Canadian who thinks it’s better down there to move to the U.S. and experience if a private system gives better care
Why does American healthcare cost so much more than every other developed country?
Short answer: our system is designed to be expensive.
Here’s the breakdown. 🧵👇

I hate these men. With the force of a thousand suns. Every single one of them who can not see women as entire beings. I can feel how this woman felt around him reading this. Because we’ve all felt it.

They run this same one with famous artists as well. I do not know who falls for it but it depresses me every time I see one of the emails
Folks, a famous author isn't ever going to contact you out of the blue to offer you literary services. It's always a scam. Also, speaking as an at least semifamous author, you wouldn't want any services we did offer, we're just barely handling our own shit, much less anyone else's.
I've now heard from 3 authors targeted on X by a scammer impersonating Lois McMaster Bujold. Bujold impersonator refers author to "Eleanor Wood at Spectrum Literary", also an impersonation. Goal: to sell editing svcs. Scam is impersonating multiple authors & agents writerbeware.blog/2025/11/14/i...

I can reassure the New York Times that networks of mutual protection, and misogynist retaliation efforts that benefit abusive men at the expense of the young women they prey upon, are very much still intact post-Me Too.
This is nauseating: “As the emails stretch through the years, they show how that protected realm vanished into the mists of time, pulled under by the rising forces of the internet and the #MeToo movement.” A “Gone With the Wind” framing for sexual abuse and harassment.
Seriously, what is wrong with these people?

On Nov 17 at 9AM the city of Toronto will raise the Palestinian flag. The city often raises flags to respect the multicultural nature of the city.
It is non-partisan.
Don't let the Israeli lobby intimidate people in Toronto.

Just watched this which is currently renting for $1.99 and wow. Highly recommend I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a perfect subtle and nuance look at trauma. It’s a perfect film, 10/10 no notes. It had me twice in a split state between laughing and crying at the very same time.

Everything is awful, but we have a new single from Robyn, so I’ll be leaning in that for the rest of the day.

Wild how every single member of the political and business elite went into full drooling fascism the second the prospect of consequences for abhorrent behavior started to seem possible
My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

My great grandfather who lied about his age to join in on WW1, spent a week in France until he was shot in the mouth and spent the rest of that war in a Brighton hospital, went for round 2 in WW11 to add another bullet wound to a leg.

In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes.
The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last.
The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes.
Why?
It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.

Everything I’ve done I considered good or interesting came, usually through the gift of error, via a negotiation with the universe and things we do not understand (gravity, time). I’ve often said I’m looking for pictures I don’t already know and what the AI asks us to give up is literally our magic
Art is emotion through expression. AI does not think and it cannot feel. It is a program designed to scrounge the internet to pass things off as its own. All the while stealing jobs from real artists and soaking up drinking water.

This farm apparently hid their outbreak. The best thing that could happen for other farmers is for the CFIA to come down like a ton of bricks on any farm that does that. No compensation for lost livestock, lose all their permits, huge fines, etc. Scorched earth when a farm doesn't report outbreaks.
