🧵The Deltavariant is absolutely RIPPING through the Dutch youth.

Cases rose quickly from ECDC 'Green' to 'RED; in just 6 days.📈
After that, it took Delta *ONLY 3 days* to push the daily number of cases from 'Red' to 'Dark Red'.🚀

I've been reading a lot of Lauren Berlant over this cruel year: their writing has been a refuge and inspiration. So when I heard the terrible news, I instinctively turned to the words Berlant wrote when Eve Sedgwick died:

To @JustinTrudeau @CrownIndigenous @MarcMillerVM we need, as a country to stop & pause, mark a day, to honour the215 lives lost at Kamloops Ind ResSchool. Further, our FNs with ResSchools in their midst, need to be supported in this search. #ThereAreMoreGraveyards #DayOfMourning

@PhaseUVIC @UVicAnthro This is amazing!

So thrilled that this paper about our experiences with heART space - an art show from youth about overdose is out! Such a delight to reflect with @Elle_Anth and JenRobinson on this incredibly powerful time.

My mom is retired, & she spends her winters volunteering at a sea turtle rescue center in south Texas. The cold snap is stunning the local turtles & they’re doing a lot of rescues. She sent me this photo today of the back of her Subaru. It’s *literally* turtles all the way down.

Good news alert 👏 #Argentina will drop all criminal charges against people who were accused of having abortions. Last week abortion officially became legal in the country. This is another major victory for reproductive rights in Latin America! https://t.co/IEqizgBDW7

Look at that functional response!

How windy was it last night, you ask? According to one @CHEK_News
viewer, the next door neighbour's canoe ended up on the roof of her sister's house. Here's the photo. So yeah, pretty windy. #BCStorm

“In my reporting for The Tyee these last nine months, people marginalized by drug policy, racism, ableism and ageism in B.C. have been clear that normal was what was killing them.”

Growing up, my Muslim family never celebrated Christmas. This year I am not going home, because pandemic, so my roommates are teaching me how to have my first proper Christmas.

I am approaching this with anthropological precision.

Here are a few observations.

Here I describe a brief overview of how the Pfizer/BioNTech or Moderna mRNA vaccines work. Taking a vaccine is one’s personal choice, and I hope this video can help someone make that decision rooted in science.
