@RVAwonk @harpersbazaarus The just world hypothesis was first conceptualized by Dr. Lerner in the 1960s. I don’t see any plagiarism here if both articles cited the original author. What I’m seeing here is egotism. Unfollowed.

There is no safe level of alcohol consumption.

[Media Tell The Truth XR @TTTMediaXR]

Many people still think climate breakdown is an issue for their children or grandchildren.

The media have failed to communicate the truth: the crisis is upon us now. So it falls to activists like @ClareTotty to do it.

@Pam_Frampton She portrayed herself as Indigenous and did not take responsibility for how her ‘heritage’ was interpreted. Why did the student union believe she was indigenous? Why was her Bras d’Or membership listed in her professional biographies/resumes up to 2018 when it ended in 09? Not ok

[Lynn Learning @LearningLynn]

@Esqueer_ It’s time to ban all alcohol advertising permanently!

TBH, this seems worse than having the road blocked by climate activists for a few minutes.

@ianmiles Why is the fact that she’s marketing an addictive cancer causing chemical to young people not being called out? Of all the wokeness in society and no one picks up on this because they have brainwashed 80% the population to consume it. SMH

[Lynn Learning @LearningLynn]

@thebiggestyee Politics aside I think it’s messed up that major alcohol companies go to such lengths to market their addictive substance that causes cancer to younger generations! It’s big tobacco on steroids at this point.

Being mad at alcohol prices going up isn't the flex you think it is.
It should, however, be a point to examine your relationship with alcohol.

@outsidetheboxNL @BerniceCBC The form stated “other research has included the well-being of Indigenous peoples, including members of Mi'kmaq First Nation, a group to which she has ancestry (Bras d'Or)." She discontinued her membership with Bras d’Or at least 4 years before this nomination yet she signed it.

Do our MHAs or @RNC_PoliceNL not care to read the overwhelming evidence in the form of program evaluation studies that DARE programs do not work? And increase negative outcomes in some cases? Yet another case of not reading reports…. #nlpoli

@CTVNews I believe cultural issues at Air Canada extend even beyond individuals with disabilities to the general public. On recent trips I encountered attitude issues and difficult to deal with desk staff and flight attendants. No need to be so rude. It wasn’t like this a few years ago.

@beebroders Additional cuts so that overcharging international students will make up for the difference. Gross.

“Your Health. Our Priority” budget includes “Increasing commission discounts to wine, spirit and cider producers in the province.” Did they not read the new Canada Alcohol Guidelines? NO alcohol is safe. Paying for care once people get sick but encouraging unhealthy habits🙄#S254

[Government of Newfoundland & Labrador @GovNL]

#NLBudget23 includes #GovNL’s largest-ever investment in health care, unprecedented investment in roads and highways, no tax or fee increases, and increases to the Income Supplement and Seniors’ Benefit. [🧵THREAD] #nlpoli

@JenEWright @kerriclaireneil “Someone who looks in the face of power” - she does have power though. She sits on the Board of Regents which we’ve all been begging for change to no avail. Her silence on those issues is deafening. I’m all for calling out racist symbolism but not at the expense of dead officers.

[Ari @sprochester]

I'm not excusing the behaviour; there is no question it was wrong. But it's also wrong (and I believe unjust and careless) not to provide the necessary guardrails. SJC Board - this is a chance for you to own your part in this.

@LisaGardnerBks I’m reading One Step Too Far. It’s brilliant! 🏕️

@KenLou09388620 @GerriLynnMackey @590VOCM I watched your TikTok, you said you immediately demanded to be let through the line and were shocked that the picketer did not appreciate it!. All you needed to do was listen. You are sowing anti-union division at a crucial time for our university. Reflect on your choices

[Lynn Learning @LearningLynn]

@GerriLynnMackey @590VOCM They do indeed have a right to slow down traffic, which they did. These are the guidelines sent out by MUN and she did not heed at least 6 of them.

[Lynn Learning @LearningLynn]

@GerriLynnMackey @590VOCM Herself/her family did not allow for extra time to cross the picket line, completely disregarded the guidelines for crossing sent out by MUN in advance of the strike, and refused to briefly interact with picketers to hear their story. Now has gone to media 🙄 Classic entitlement
