Waited 10 minutes before talking to triage and being whisked away, first time I've waited for anaphylaxis (also first time experiencing biphasic anaphylaxis 4 hours later)

The last 6 years though sucks for wait times and being believed, I started 2020 (and the curse of 6 years of issues) with my 5th allergic reaction to a nut (cross contamination) and I went to the infirmary and told a nurse and she said "your neck doesn't look swollen)..

It was definitely better when I was a kid, I remember the 4 instances of nut reactions (1 in PEI) and I remember my mother just saying allergic reaction and poof in we go

I just got off the phone with both Jennifer and Joan. They're rattled but otherwise OK. They'll have a full report as soon as they can write it up. Adding: I take this extremely seriously and unequivocally support our reporters. I'll be filing complaints with Houston and others.

This is NOT normal. I cannot think of anything like it in the 40 years I reported. (Including 30 covering NS politics). No Nova Scotia should be ok with this.

One of my fundamental political and economic beliefs is that we should abolish the ad industry. That alone would destroy most of the issues in our society. Plus not seeing ANY advertisements while in Cuba cleansed my brain of all detritus for a brief time.

Disabled people need more support. Most ableds believe if you get “sick enough” help will magically appear. That if you get worse, more help will arrive. It doesn’t work like that. Unless you have family or deep pockets, you are on your own. Abuse is rampant. Suffering is inevitable.

I find this funny because supposedly squadron 42 (a pc game) is not releasing this year because they didn't want to conflict with gta6 (a console game), so now gta6 is coming to pc in 2027 Be hilarious if the dates line up, be the perfect excuse to delay squadron 42 to infinity

Very good opinion piece on why Canada needs a Royal Inquiry on our country’s poor response to the COVID-19 pandemic. It is shocking that there has been no Royal Inquiry given the devastation caused and continuing due to COVID-19 in Canada. @mark-carney.bsky.social are you listening?

RJ Mitte was a fierce advocate for disability justice. He had cerebral palsy and his disability was a central part of his character on Breaking Bad. Despite the shows success, Mitte lost most of his earnings due to an unscrupulous business manager. The “crip tax” is real.

As Carney gears Canada up to blow past our 2030 emissions target at breakneck speed, it's good to remember that Canada also completely missed our 2020 target of a 17% reduction, largely due to increases in the oil & gas sector.

I had boycotted Amazon long term before I started needing to use it because the cost of getting all my types of medical supplies from multiple sources is unfeasible, and I do not have the freedom to go out to a shop as I please. I'll avoid Amazon on Prime Day, but to boycott fully I NEED support.

If your still concerned that I would hope that you an able bodied person who wants ppl to boycott amazon will step up for your community and ensure that they have their needs met Consider reaching out to your community and asking them what they need and what you can do to support them

Andy @andy47xxy.bsky.social · 07/10/2026
Cause a bunch of ableists always jump at the opportunity to belittle disabled ppl about this stance, know that services before amazon likely dont exist anymore or are significantly more expensive

"But the handicapped need cars!" No, what they need are options in mobility. The tech exists to enable their freedom of independent mobility, but almost always what is lacking is the enabling infrastructure. Bike lanes and quality sidewalks serve everyone.

I think we missed a huge opportunity to normalize masking as a public health tool. We eradicated an entire strain of the flu with Covid prevention measures. Masking shows respect for those around you. It shows solidarity with the disability community. It shows you value long term health.

This should be so obvious that it doesn’t need to be said, but given what kind of weekend it’s been on here, apparently it does: If you don’t want old rapists running the world, in office, in the board room, making decisions for all of us get comfortable with “ruining” young rapists’ lives

If you’re still wearing a mask, thank you. Please know you’re not alone. Many of us still mask, test and isolate when sick. Being the lone masker can be difficult, but your long term health is worth it. As a high risk, immunocompromised person… I see and appreciate you.

Disabled people tried to warn you. We were one of the first groups targeted by the Nazis. Fascists will always come for the “useless eaters”. They want to institutionalize us. Hide us away from the rest of society. Remove our supports so we either die or disappear. It’s eugenics.
