Putting this out into the ether another way (made calls)….in the hopes someone equipped to help. Small hare trapped against cement barrier left-hand lane on Crowchild. Does not look injured. Southbound, just North of 53 Street exit. @CalgaryWildlife @CalgaryPolice #calgary #yyc

V played DJ tonight and hit an 80’s party mix. V’s education has always been paramount, so when Rhythm Nation came on, we took a music history and YouTube detour to ensure she develops a proper appreciation for foundational artists and pre-TikTok dances. @JanetJackson 🙏🏼🫶🏼💃🏻

@dryiu_verna Or a trauma response. Sometimes my hyperfixation on details can be viewed as micromanaging. I openly disclose it’s related to my ADHD and trauma, so folks can support me as I learn to respond differently. 🧡

At the CCI in Edmonton, pathologists create X-ray images of breast cancer tissue being removed in real time to enable precise cancer location and removal in 1 step. Congrats Dr. Richard Berendt & colleagues for their 2022 @HQCA Patient Experience Award. https://t.co/BCPLw4bIK4

This is horror at its absolute finest. People forget why @StephenKing earned his status. He took the time to make you care. He made you love, so the scares weren’t just uncomfortable—they hurt.

What a gorgeous world the Duffer brothers gifted us. #StrangerThings #StrangerThings4

I was just asked to be on The National to discuss Roe and abortion...and then I found out it would be a panel with a "pro-life/anti-abortion" voice. I am livid and sent this reply. I couldn't care less if this means I will not be asked back to the CBC. It needed to be said.

Please don’t cut trans men and nonbinary people out of the conversation today. This is not just a women’s rights issue, anyone who can get pregnant is affected.

If this was about babies, there would be universal healthcare. Free education. Free daycare. Southern states would be doing all they can to drop the Black maternal mortality rate. This is about power and control

[Ahmed Ali @DrAhmednurAli]

You can never ban abortion, you can only ban safe abortions. Read that again.

Troy Kotsur becomes the first Deaf man to win an acting Oscar. He’s taking home best supporting actor for his role in CODA. #Oscars https://t.co/GlS68uEebD

[Kristina Watkins @STLtoYYC]

#Oscars…..totally cringy so far. 😳

[Kristina Watkins @STLtoYYC]

@moveablejaw It was not ok…..

@nbahraini11 @smartsweets HIGHLY recommend. Used to be partial to the Swedish fish look-allies, but these took over after a friend picked me up a couple bags.

Hugs to you, btw! 🥰

[Kristina Watkins @STLtoYYC]

What in the neurodivergent joy have you done here, @smartsweets?

Not so scientific observation. I’ve been eating your cola gummies for a few months and almost EVERY time, there is an even distribution of dark and light bottles. Is this intentional? If so, my brain ADORES you.

@jdf0109 @Soup_ofthe_DEJA And folks forget the Formation video only dropped the day before the Super Bowl performance. The message was subversive (because I can't imagine the NFL knew everything her team had planned in parallel), inspiring, and electric.

A #walkoff into the corn at #MLBatFieldofDreams.

Couldn't write a better script.

#ABHealth Twitter....confused. My parents are coming to visit me mid-August once fully vaccinated US citizens allowed to travel up. Lots about testing coming in, but they need a pre-departure test confirming clear. Where do I book? @AHS_media tool looks like only for Albertans?

@tweetvandijk I had to take a double-take, @tweetvandijk. I am so very sorry to hear this news. Ali's energy, passion, and commitment truly lit up a room.
