I'm pretty sure Melissa and I are dating and neither of us has realized it yet

[Janel Comeau 🍁 @VeryBadLlama]

wow that sounds super frustrating , maybe you should solve the problem by selling the unit to someone who will live in it full time and open the door with their own keys

HRM is under water, we’re in the 5th hour of an electrical storm & police are asking ppl to avoid travel. Yet 100s of people staying in tents - our neighbours - have nowhere safe to go. Tents are not safe shelter & they are not homes. Housing is a human right.

Clip from today's presser: Premier Houston announces as of 4pm all travel and activity within Nova Scotia's woods is banned including hiking, camping, fishing, use of off highway vehicles, and more. #halifax #novascotia #canada #nsfire #nswildfire #nswildfires

Surreal experience as my family and I evacuate from our neighborhood. The Tantallon wildfire is quickly moving threatening hundreds of homes. #nswildfire

[Janel Comeau 🍁 @VeryBadLlama]

there’s so much smoke pouring in from the NS wildfires that the sun over Halifax is scarlet. this seems fine. it’s fine. everything is fine.

I couldn't tell you the number of times that a patient experiencing psychosis has made a claim where, on the surface, it sounded outrageous but turned out to be completely true.

Listening to our patients is important, even when it's noisy.

BREAKING: Toronto city council votes to murder homeless people for the third time this year

[Janel Comeau 🍁 @VeryBadLlama]

police accountability doesn't just mean arresting violent officers; it means admitting we have a system that is designed to actively produce violent officers and then doing something about it

[Dr. Nicole LePera @Theholisticpsyc]

Urgency can become a compulsion when we've experienced childhood trauma. A feeling that we need to immediately respond, that we can never rest, or that we must "fix" every issue immediately. This is our helpless inner child trying to stay safe & to be needed.

Me: What kind of work do you do?
Patient: I work at a homeless youth shelter.
Me: That’s cool. Remind me to tell you something awesome when we’re done.

(Later.)
Me: You’re doing important work. And sometimes, those youth grow up and become docs.
Patient: 😭
Me: 😭

Don’t get me wrong, I’m really excited for my 30’s, but 20’s Mel went through some shit and GREW.

[M E L . @MelissaDillman]

It’s the last day of my 20’s and I am not okay 😅🙈

[M E L . @MelissaDillman]

Probably shouldn’t have had that 8pm iced coffee…

[Janel Comeau 🍁 @VeryBadLlama]

honestly human history makes a lot more sense when you remember how many of the major decisions were made by 19-year-olds who drank wine for breakfast

Hey @taylorswift13, we’re hurting out here - could really use a new album!
