"The hidden harms of medical gaslighting" Fibromyalgia, Long COVID, endometriosis, chronic fatigue syndrome and autoimmune disorders put patients at higher risk of “medical gaslighting,” where genuine clinical concerns are dismissed or invalidated without proper medical evaluation.
 A screenshot of an online article from the American Psychological Association website. The large bold headline reads, "The hidden harms of medical gaslighting," with the subheading, "Researchers are leading efforts to better support patients with difficult-to-diagnose conditions." The piece is by Heather Stringer, dated October 1, 2026, and is tagged with three blue oval buttons: "Health Care," "Health Equity," and "Chronic Illness." Below the text, a photograph shows a Black woman with braids looking highly distressed and overwhelmed while talking on a smartphone. She has her eyes closed tightly and her left hand pressed against her forehead in frustration.

There are eerie parallels between what’s happening in Irkutsk and what happened in Wuhan in early 2020. Doctors claiming the government was hiding the extent of the spread. Masks being mandated. Schools being closed. Pay attention. Listen to independent journalists & locals:

When mask bans were first being enacted, disabled people warned they marked a return to Ugly Laws. They were a crucial step towards eliminating us from public life. They were designed to make us hide away, unable to safely exist in public. Disabled people are the canaries in the coal mine.

When they get angry with you (and they will get angry with you) for the precautions you take, remember, my friend: they are not angry with you because they believe that you are wrong, they are angry with you because on some level they fear you are right.

Carney's first-ever project designated as being in the “national interest" is...a crude oil pipeline. That means the oil pipeline can bulldoze past environmental laws, impact assessments, and Indigenous consultation. It can also kill all of Vancouver's orcas. Here's what you need to know:

According to a recent study (published in Lancet Oncology) researchers now estimate that infections are responsible for about 12% of cancer diagnoses worldwide, which is a reason, (indeed, yet another reason) why doing what you can to avoid infections is prudent.

Carney tells us that among the criteria for a project being designated in the national interest, the major projects office considers whether the project “contributes to Canadas clean growth and climate goals.” And a BITUMEN PIPELINE PASSED THIS TEST? Then the test is bullshit.

It’s terrifying being disabled and completely reliant on someone else for survival. Being unable to feed or clean yourself is unsettling. There isn’t help available. If your caregiver doesn’t show? You suffer. If they’re abusive? You suffer. The system does not protect us.

This is foul. A reader reached out and told me the first google result when you search "kamloops unmarked graves discovery" is residential school denial. I did the search myself, and I found the same thing. The first non-sponsored result is the Fraser Institute's residential school denial.
Google search result for "kamloops unmarked graves discovery" has, as its first non-sponsored post, a publication from the Fraser Institute.

It reads: "No evidence of 'mass graves' or 'genocide' in residential ..."

"Feb 12, 2024 — ... Kamloops narrative are either false or highly exaggerated. No unmarked graves have been discovered at Kamloops or elsewhere-not one. As of ... Read more"Another screenshot shows the only result before the Fraser Institute result is a sponsored post from Angus Reid, affirming that the Fraser Institute result is the first non-sponsored one.Screenshot shows the intial response Google provides to the search "kamloops unmarked graves discovery"

All you can see on this first screenshot is the AI overview (barf) and the sponsored result from Angus Reid. However, as the other screenshots show, that Angus Reid result is followed by the first non-sponsored result: residential school denial from the Fraser Institute.

This is some of the most heinous, ableist crap I’ve ever seen come across my timeline. A woman in a wheelchair can suddenly walk because a man asked her to dance and told her to “just try”. You can’t “try harder” your disabilities away. This is not inspirational. It’s dangerous.
