Why are elected officials not condemning this cowardly display of racism and xenophobia in Hamilton, ON, Canada?

Are immigrants less worthy of being protected from hate? Why the silence from the so-called officials who are quick to condemn other forms of hate?

@MaintenancePod It is a bit short on details and there are no notes, what with being written for toddlers. And the vaccine itself is illustrated with a cape and flying around the world like a superhero. I'm going to assume that's metaphorical, but vaccines are pretty superhero-ish

[Julie Bowring @juliebowring]

@MaintenancePod I have a source to share for the next time you do an episode on vaccines: Vaccines, the board book! https://t.co/2YVSf7CHP9
It's a book for little kids all about antigens and antibodies and it's actually a pretty good explanation of how vaccines work :)

How many male PIs get mistaken for students at conferences? What's with the constant disbelief that I have my own lab? I've been a molecular biochemist for 20 years 🤷. Check your implicit bias folks 🙄

A study by IWH Senior Scientist Dr. Monique Gignac, on the impact of COVID among people with physical and/or mental disabilities, is now out!

[Disability & Health Journal @Dis_Health]

Workers with both a physical and mental health disability reported significantly greater #COVID19-related health and financial concerns and less organizational support than those with no disability. @iwhresearch @ArifJetha

Should you disclose your health condition to managers and co-workers to get better support? Our study finds your reasons for disclosing or not can make a difference . #ACEDresearch https://t.co/NrqM27W4nt

my ongoing @Dell saga: now a computer has arrived that I didn't order and I have no idea why it's here - and emails to tech support go unanswered.
