Very pleased that the single-use bathrooms in my @UUtah office building now have information about WHAT is in them, rather than signs about WHO can use them.

Dismantling COVID protections won’t bring back 2019.

It will keep us in perpetual 2020.

[Sean Carleton @SeanCarleton]

In less than two years, we’ve gone from “we’re all in this together” and “flatten the curve to support frontliners” to “it’s your duty to keep working and get sick/die for the economy.” COVID is the virus, but capitalism has always been the pandemic.

[Adam B. Hill, M.D. @Adamhill1212]

Had a colleague tell me, “To be clear, I’m not depressed. I’m reacting appropriately to the world around me”. Oof, felt that.

Has Covid-19 forced you to wear a mask and glasses at the same time? You may be entitled to condensation.

How about Premier Ford and his cabinet shadow a nurse for #Just4Hours

[Fae Nova (they/them) 🏳️‍🌈 @FaeKronman]

Can we please stop "he or she" in academic writing and just switch to the singular "they"?

I promise nobody will be confused

I wish billionaires were this obsessed with fixing climate change or child poverty, as much as they are with space.

A national Indian Residential School Crisis Line has been set up to provide support for former students and those affected. People can access emotional and crisis referral services by calling the 24-hour national crisis line: 1-866-925-4419

Recap: Yesterday, the City of Toronto designed a paramilitary operation. Sent hundreds of police. Intimidated with horses. Used surveillance technology...Just to remove 25 people living in a park, with nowhere safe to go.

If you're not outraged, you're just not paying attention.

[Ahmed Ali @DrAhmednurAli]

An apology isn’t enough for genocide.

[Naheed Dosani @NaheedD]

SEVEN. HUNDRED. FIFTY. ONE.

751 unmarked graves have been found at a former residential school by the Cowessess First Nation in Saskatchewan.

The next time someone tells you "This isn't Canada", tell them it is.

This is a country built on genocide.

@wussyfop No!

"Pronouns are basically how we identify ourselves apart from our name. It's how someone refers to you in conversation. And when you're speaking to people, it's a really simple way to affirm their identity." @MaryEmilyOHara

Genuinely curious... @carynceolin @CityNews why is your camerawork always so shaky?? Is it intentional? #handheld

We are still looking for folks who have had vaginoplasty over 1 year ago for our study. Spread the word!! We need about 30 more people. The knowledge gained here is going to help me help the people. Help!

[Naheed Dosani @NaheedD]

When the Ontario government over emphasizes borders, it's racism. When their pandemic response prioritized policing, it was racism. When they refused #PaidSickDays for mostly racialized workers, it was racism. When they didn't divert vaccines to hotspots, it was racism.

[Naheed Dosani @NaheedD]

If Jeff Bezos can get $90,100,000,000 richer during a pandemic, Amazon can afford to provide #PaidSickDays for its employees.
