@RositaSweetman I think relying on their good will makes that seem unlikely, or they wouldn't be hoarding so much wealth to begin with! But the publicly funded coast guards, etc. shouldn't be paying for their foolishness.
This is why, even now, I’ve never succumbed to hubris regarding the dangers of Covid. We REALLY want it to be “just a cold,” but it’s not a cold. It’s neurological, and it’s stealthier than us. Those who have friends with “long Covid” know it’s no joke: https://t.co/Lv23uBQKtd
Apropos of nothing, one of the first things Nazi Germany did was wipe out the world’s first transgender clinic. This came at the same time at the T-4 program and served as a rough draft for extermination of Jews. My friend @bschillace wrote about this https://t.co/JYpT3INZSR
@jeffjarvis@Stonekettle Books that “depict sex”? Children’s books don’t depict sex. Any sex depicted in the phrase Doris has two mommies” is 100% in the head of the adults seeking to censor the book!
These jerks are attempting to ban lifestyles they fantasize about!
@JodiesJumpsuit Has he hit Fahrenheit 451?
I'd also very much advocate for the YA book Verify by Joelle Charbonneau. It's dystopian in that older style where it's less about action and movie adaptation, and more thoughtful about how insidious changes can be. It's chillingly plausible.
@jamarperry Oof, we've all had programs where no one came or worse, one lone person. So awkward, but well beyond our control.
May I say, though, I love how gracious you are being to your host here!
@ShaunieDarko And yet, teachers and librarians despair about this very thing... You are definitely not alone in seeing it and worrying about the impact. It's not sexist, it's caring about every kid, so it's not you, it's them on this one!
@michelledean Legend has it the Toronto one was closed after someone got their hand in the machine... but we are talking 30, 40 years ago, so that may well be nothing more than urban legend.
@kimberly_trusty Oh! I didn't even know about the email, I saw it posted earlier in the morning, but not a ton. I think they scrambled it together at the last minute bc things were getting so out of hand with this whole thing, yikes.
Is anyone going to ask WHY Nurse Practitioners are not funded under OHIP??? If NPs are feasible solutions to support this crisis, why do we have to pay for a visit? We need to start asking some really tough questions. I'll start with this one....

@salstrange So bizarre how they think they are being dismissed as porn and people don't want them on the platform when that is targeted at... actual porn? So if they aren't, then it's not really about them? So weird.
@salstrange I think if you could just straight up change your text any time and no one knew about it, it would be BAD.
However, they've been thoughtful.
There's a time limit, it's flagged as edited, and when you click on that, it shows the original text, which should prevent a lot of that.🤞
Important points by Matt here: Successive Conservative Mayors let the tax base erode (back of envelope its +/- $500 million) and services decline. It’s time to invest in Toronto. You cannot build a great city for free. https://t.co/3KZ9XUTAL1
