Man, following because relevant and this helps explain why I got so sick there a little more than a year ago, it was awful, I've been moving around since 2020, but whatever I caught in Lincoln Nebraska ripped me up, I lost 25lbs, was almost hospitalized, super rough.

The most prominent cryptic lineage in the world right now is from Lincoln, Nebraska.

It's a B.1 infection (about 5 years old) that has been detected in their wastewater every week for about the last 18 months.

There's a lot of misinformation out there about COVID. We like to pretend that it's only uneducated people who fall for it, but initial "inside the house" misinfo around the denial of aerosol transmission is now motivating minimization of the consequences of that error.

COVID is an infection acquired via the respiratory route, primarily transmitted via inhalation of infectious aerosols. That doesn't mean it's just a respiratory infection.

Similarly, no longer having respiratory symptoms doesn't mean you've cleared the infection.

Our medical system WAS at a breaking point. This is everything. When I had surgery in 2024, ~20% of the hospital beds were empty. I asked if the beds would be full with more staffing, I was told ABSOLUTELY.

This doctor arrived 4 days prior, says how easy HealthMatch BC made it (in 4 months).

There's quite a movement now of American docs who've moved to Canada who are trying to attract others here, because they are so all-in on our medical system after butting heads in the USA for so long.

Throughout history, waging war has always been part of the authoritarian playbook.

Donald Trump’s war in Iran is the latest example. Watch.

*cough* Stephen Harper... still getting rich playing quasi-politician

*cough* Pierre Poilievre, net worth from zero to over $10 million, allegedly on an MP salary which, while not chump change, is comfy only. Well. Until he figured out billing Cdns $8.8 million in expenses, anyway

Penticton-Summerland MLA calls on government to pay for Sage Mesa water repairs - Think Local More than 500 residents across 242 homes just outside of Penticton wake up every day without safe drinking water. Now the province is telling them to pay $1,200 a month for the next 30 years to fix it, or face special levies on their properties.

When he first surfaced, it seemed that perhaps Poilievre was a clever man playing stupid for his fan base. Ever since Trudeau resigned, it’s been abundantly clear that Poilievre is in fact staggeringly stupid. Moribund in petty grievance and victimhood.

The Alberta government has removed Cause of Death statistics for the entire year 2024 from its dashboard.

Shawn Beauvais-MacDonald (who showed up to intimidate me) is a SELF-DESCRIBED Nazi.

Alex Vriend, who Western Standard platformed, is a SELF-DESCRIBED white nationalist.

A little shameless self promotion here.
Was honoured to be asked to write the environmental health chapter for the MedSci 101 textbook Core Concepts in Health (5th Ed).
It came out last week.
Definitely a stretch for me, something I've never done.
