@ianhanomansing One time I was in Kyoto at this little tiny underground bar. The bartender was from Croatia but he was playing The Tragically Hip, on repeat. In my wildest dreams, I never had Hip in Japan on my Canada outside of Canada, bingo card.
@legaltweetz@CarilynJohnson This mantra “transwomen are women” is massively xenophobic and just demonstrative of a settler mindset. Grow up, step outside of your westernized box, and stop pushing your ideology.
What do the kids say, these days - go outside and touch some grass.
@roseveniceallan What you mean is - where you live, transwomen are women, but making this claim for the globe wipes out several gender identities in other populations who don’t feel that they (the equivalent of trans) are women. So, you call others transphobic while being ethnocentric yourself
The (startlingly?) long reach of religion: “abolishing compulsory religious education reduced religiosity, led to more equal gender roles, fewer marriages & childrn, higher labor-market participation & earnings but didn’t affect ethical & political values” https://t.co/LPwm0IGkqy

When this BS is over, we need a World Cup of Hockey tourney in which teams are compromised of NHL men, National Team women, and World Junior players. I want a line of Connor McDavid - Marie-Philip Poulin - Connor Bedard.
"Increasing data size shrinks confidence intervals but magnifies survey bias: an instance of the Big Data Paradox...We show how a survey of 250,000 respondents can produce an estimate of the population mean that is no more accurate than that from a simple random sample of 10"
@UbakaOgbogu My institution sent a business as usual email. We have a mask mandate but failed to join the other Alberta institutions who implemented a vaccine mandate. At the start of term only 68% of our students were fully vaccinated (80% of faculty and staff).
@TehseenLadha@PopAlberta@UbakaOgbogu They also didn’t address post-secondary schools. My institution has a mask mandate but didn’t join the other schools in adopting a vaccine mandate. At the start of term only 68% of our students were fully vaccinated. In class they sit side by side. It’s a cesspool.
