Canadian lab tech with an obsessive interest in nutrition and offbeat humour. (Yes. Humour. With a U.) Stuff I say is my own opinion at the time I said it.

Do you think that safety nets under the Golden Gate Bridge is a good idea? Do you think covering the railings with fencing on the High Level Bridge was reasonable? Congrats. You believe in harm reduction Let's talk about how @ABDanielleSmith is dismantling safety nets 👇🧵

@drdagly YES it’s a HUGE problem. I have been seeing infectious complications in alcoholic hepatitis and cirrhosis patients a LOT lately and our liver specialist colleagues are literally run off their feet- getting calls from all over the province. All patients shocked they’re so sick.

If you argue with forced birth folk long enough, their argument always comes down to one, single tenet. Punishing women for having & enjoying sex in a manner not controlled & dictated by men of privilege. That’s the whole point of the pro life movement. Control over others.

A 74-year-old male was stuck in a demonstration convoy on Highway 3 last week as he was attempting to drive his 82-year-old sister, who was in dire need of medical care, to the hospital. The convoy was “slow-rolling” on the only highway to the only hospital in the area. #rcmpmb

Anyone remember when I was fuming mad that AHS canceled mom’s cancer surgery in October? She just now had her first appointment at CCI and they can’t treat her. She has 3-6 months left. I can’t find the right word for my level of rage right now. #abpoli #AHS #jasonkenney

Imagine being the government that lost at least $1.3 billion on a cancelled pipeline, ~$2 billion on the oil by rail contract and cut corporate taxes twice, then putting out this survey. This is ”I lost money on my gambling addiction, should I not feed my kids?” level.

Effective this week Organ donation will shut down in SK due to the pressure on ICU and redeployment of staff. It simply means that those who pass away and generously want to donate their organs will not able to. It will also means that no one will be able to receive one. Tragic.

My Grandma was moved from #Lethbridge #yql ICU to the #Edmonton #yeg ICU to await a transplant. Her liver and kidneys are both failing. She is one of the ones drawing a short stick in the triage world. 1/
