next post will likely read 'and to make up for the lack of blowing up, killing, and death, the testosterone-topped-up Secretary of War will up the kill quota for any and all Caribbean vessels. Thank you for your attention to this matter'.

Thx for this Ryan. well stated & thankful we're no longer tiptoeing. I guess though, can't get past (pessimist) believing mid-terms will change much. (& hate the lingo, but... 🤷), it's such a big ship (titanic-esque), not sure how it turns around? & rest of the world? will have a drink w dinner ;-)

returned to university as an adult. wanted to take a language course, and chose ancient Greek (so the 'kids' wouldn't have an advantage over me lol). Hoi polloi was one of my favourite finds. have even used it out loud (once or twice 😜).

Waitlists for MRIs are too long across Ontario, with only 30% occurring in their target time. The answer is simple: fund our public hospitals to run their EXISTING MRI machines on evenings and weekends. Get rid of the waitlists. Get Ontarians the care they need.

perhaps you could try H. Jeffries? I just read the free nyt article re meeting with J. Kushner - complicity is 1st thought that comes to mind - 2nd is, Dem's are fucked if this is the leadership, 3rd is a little more +ve, Jefferies and old boys at the helm are, at least, helping progressives win.

Guys I can’t keep doing this independently. I need a job. If you know of a place—advocacy, OSINT org, think tank, left media, etc—where I could take this work in-house, pls let me know. I admire the folks making independent work for them, but I am collapsing under the weight and the lack of impact.

Had we spent the last 6 years improving ventilation in public spaces, I likely wouldn't be writing this post. But the medical community - particularly infection control leaders & infectious disease physicians - still won't acknowledge airborne transmission, and they have prevented progress. 4/15

Thanks for sharing. One notion I can't stop thinking about when reading hospitalization related data, is that COVID admits were (are) an 'add on'. COVID as an admit (or disch dx) never existed prior to ~2020. Such a strain on an already stressed beds/staff/funding. Vaccine preventable!
