Region Nino 3.4 sea-surface temperatures are in record territory, approaching 3 standard deviations above the 1982-2011 mean, an anomaly that has never happened before in recorded history.

@MarcMillerVM By infringing the rights of every Canadian and surveilling every Canadian's social media postings.
You're supposedly doing this to protect the children, but you're having them grow up in a less free world than their parents.
For shame.
Not too sure if I, as a kid, as an adult of the future, would want to receive the "protection" of these people if it meant that I would later inherit an authoritarian world devoid of privacy and liberty. I'd be like, you gave away what, exactly, of mine, supposedly in my name?!
@StevePhillipsMD Plant-based diet. Daily long walk. Both very accessible to most of us, with enormous benefits and not insignificant financial perks. Plant-based is cheaper, and all one needs is a decent pair of shoes; no memberships!
@StevePhillipsMD It completely destroys faith in society that millions and millions are aloud to wander with destroyed lives in the bottomless dungeon of chronic illness. Why do we have a society if not first to care for our vulnerable and ill?
I don't even know what to say. PSA: We DO NOT have a test to tell us the bacteria are gone, nor gone 50%, nor 80%, nor 99.9%. We have *nothing like that*. If you're still symptomatic, find a LLMD, and FAST.
The good news is i am still alive.
Figured I'd give an update.
Good news...
Blood tests confirm the lyme of 99.9% gone, so this run of antibiotics should clear it all up.
The numbness in my leg and arm and chest pains are 75% gone.
Other news...
Either the lyme caused an issue or a pre-existing issue has been brought forward sooner.
I am still waiting for the echocardiogram appointment, and will be seeing a Cardiologist after I get it done.
I am taking mild blood thinners and drinking excessive amounts of water and Gatorade between coffees. Apparently being hydrated helps blood flow. (Duh).
My mental focus and creativity are lacking currently. I really hope to return to myself and get back to the memes. For comedy's sake.
Love y'all for the well wishes and continued support.

Thanks for blowing our country, one based on liberty and privacy, that our kids were supposed to inherit. You are not protecting them, you are ripping away their fundamental rights and freedoms. You are not benevolent. You are the problem.

Today, our government introduced new legislation to protect our kids online. Canada's Safe Social Media Act will hold social media and AI platforms accountable, make them safer, and restrict access to social media for children under 16.
More and more kids are suffering from anxiety, depression, self-harm, and exploitation. To keep our kids safe, we have to ensure that our laws keep up with technology.
These people are on about protecting kids (if you believe that), never thinking about the world they'll leave those kids should their various bills get passed. It is much more the world those bills will create that kids need protection from today.
