I remember listening to #TracyChapman’s “#FastCar” w/ my sister Pat in the spring of 1988 in our driveway in Ottawa’s West End. We’d never heard anything like it. We adored the song. We listened to it over & over again. It moved us so…&
Tracy just opened up possibilities.
@ArielTroster I admire your optimiism. I'm restraining mine until I see shovels in the ground. This developer has not had a good history with follow-through.
This is all that people are asking for: Not giving it away, not selling it at cost, instead, selling it at an estimated 100% markup, rather than the current 400% or 600% markup they are currently charging.
We call on Cepheid to drop the price of the GeneXpert test for TB and all other diseases to $5, so many more lives can be saved.

Rare Foray into X to attempt what seems like a quest in vain. Convince a US Corporation to put people's lives on par with corporate profits.

@thrauat Thank you so much! I was in the same boat as you were but I couldn't find anything I liked as much as terminator. I couldn't let it get left behind.
Using up old wood stain on tool handles with old foam brushes from craft bin our grand niece & nephew use. Now I have a rainbow glitter sledgehammer.
@nyvelocity Agreed, and unfortunately, it's still the best social media for people who are interested in Pro Cycling. I'm gonna try and get things going on Mastodon for the TdF, but I haven't found anyone else on Mastodon that's interested in #Giro or #TDF2023 or any other races.
You learn to leave work at 4pm to make sure you're on time for a 5:30 daycare pickup, even though it's only one bus that takes 20 minutes to get to daycare. You just never know when it's going to show up. Both my work and daycare were a 5 minute walk from the transitway.
@Privateer1@OCTranspo@ottawacity@AlgonquinColleg@OccTranspo@DevineSean Sounds a lot like parents who are paying by the minute for late daycare pick ups and have zero control. I can't imagine the crushing anxiety a single working parent would feel taking OC Transpo from work to pick up kids from daycare on time.
Hey #ygk!
I wanted to introduce myself: I'm @CBCOttawa’s reporter based in your beautiful city.
I’m new to Kingston & the region, but excited to dig into stories that matter.
