More like the latter. The "tar" is like the "terr" in "terra" . You may have to put a little bit of pirate in your accent to make sure the R is part of the sound.

Back-to-school season is here, and so are the school-year germs. Help your child and their classmates have a healthier school year by keeping them home as much as you can when they're sick! If they have to go to school, be sure they have a mask, and encourage them to wear it as much as possible!
Sickness is not a school supply! Things to send to school with your kids: Pencils and pens, A water bottle, Books, Excitement to learn new things!

Things to leave home: COVID-19. The flu, Measles, “Stomach bugs," Any other virus that can spread to others! Help your child recover faster and protect their teachers and classmates by keeping them home as much as possible when they are sick, but if you have to send them to school (we get it, childcare and time off work aren’t 
always easy), send them with a high-quality mask. 

Masks can also protect your child from getting sick with illnesses spread by others!

I don't know. I enjoyed my time listening in to the goings on at the Compromised Lakes Country Club. Real golf commentators put me to sleep instantly - that's how I kick start my Sunday afternoon naps - but I stayed awake and read the whole thing.

Many of you in the US Northeast and Central Canada are waking up to the worst air quality in the world (from wildfires). Here is some advice to get through the next few days: - Avoid running, cycling, outdoor sports and strenuous yard work while the air is bad.

Got my free delivery @dj-acid-reflux.bsky.social books from Blackwell's in smoky Ontario today. Do I start with Villager? Can't wait to dive in.
Had hoped to read these two books by Tom Cox under the shade of my favourite tree but it's too smoky.

I've got an op-ed in the Globe today with @nicktsergas.ca. We're thinking about how Hamilton's movement towards a data centre moratorium could snowball across Canada and help reset the way data centres + cities interface in the future. www.theglobeandmail.com/business/com...

Opinion: Hamilton just hit pause on all AI data centres. This is big
The Ontario city is the first to confront a question all Canadian municipalities will soon face: How to build AI data centres responsibly?

Sounds reassuring until you get to: "Among the 4 placentas collected from women with active COVID infections, the virus could be seen clearly in placental cells, and the placentas showed typical signs of virus-related damage. Of those pregnancies, 3 ended in stillbirth and 1 in neonatal loss."

Airborne, ffs. Say. Airborne. Measles doesn't spread easily in some magical locations. It spreads easily where we share air and there is insufficient ventilation and filtration (building, room aka portable HEPA, personal aka CAN95s scale) to prevent inhaling infectious aerosols. Grow up already 🤬

An airborne virus is a virus that can infect other people through unseen particles in the air, sometimes for hours after the sick person has left the area! Masks and clean, ventilated air can reduce the risk of getting sick from airborne viruses or infecting others.

The idea that Health Canada would reduce our drug approval process to one that just rubber stamps the approvals given by the US FDA and European Medicines Agency just to save money is irresponsible and dangerous to the safety and wellbeing of all Canadians.
