This absolute stain on the human race. Ugly inside and out, oozing filth and racism. Can’t repeat her words. But Mbappe, he understood the assignment: “I will never allow people like her the freedom to spread their hatred and racism across the world.”

FFS man, you can argue the call, as is happening here, but to call that a flop is just straight up blindness or bias. Or does your anatomy work that way, where your ankles have 360degree range of motion?

A patient presented me with this sweet valentine bouquet when I visited him at home today 🥹. The vase is a salvaged cat food tin.

Today, heard Dr. Mark Joffre, former chief MOH for Alberta, speak as our province becomes shamefully notorious for having the highest measles incidence per 100000 anywhere in N.Am. (38). In his talk (“Who Let the Measles In?”), he shared Roald Dahl’s story, copied below. FFSake! Vaccinate!
