I wrote about Premier Doug Ford's apparent indifference to human life for @thestar.com: www.thestar.com/opinion/star...
When people like @georgemonbiot.bsky.social and @davetuller1.bsky.social are outraged—not just by all the needless suffering but also by all the crap so-called science that fuels it—I feel a little bit of hope. Articles like this absolutely matter.
I have had ME/CFS for 20 years. I would like treatment or, even better, a cure. At the very least, I would like people to treat ME/CFS as something that demands and deserves sustained medical research.
Here's today's column on the astonishing, ongoing mistreatment of people with #ME/CFS. Please spread it far and wide: the only thing which can break the media's wall of indifference is seeing an article about the issue go viral. Thank you. 1/2

Mayor of Bread and Roses
Yes though from the Toronto context, I think the left here often gets to "explain why it has happened" and then assume the argument is over; a lot of time and words were expended explaining why Rob Ford's criticisms of City Hall lacked important context and basically none of it mattered.
Everyone's probably already seen this, but that's because there's so much diarrhea forever.
All hail this tweet
I think it's cool and probably noteworthy that Widow's Bay was created by a Parks & Rec writer (and Hall of Fame tweet writer) and Furious was created by the the woman behind New Girl.
I’m afraid the red party just blue itself.

Cheerful little guy. Like the cut of his jib(s)
Now I feel like I'm looking out at some really scary version of Heaven.
Something about VERY LARGE HAIL that would be almost funny if the outside didn't look spectral and terrifying right now. Not large hail, mind you. VERY LARGE HAIL.
Got this as I was looking out my 19th-floor window in east-end Toronto watching objects fly by. Not large ones, but still disconcerting.
Remembering Some Guys on Murder, She Wrote took me to a dark place. Bill Maher was in two episodes. The first also had Roddy McDowall and Brad Dourif. The second: John Finnegan, Faith Ford, David Huddleston, and Bryan Cranston (in one of his THREE MSW appearances).
This isn't what the actual prompt is about. I just wanted to remember some (MSW/Star Trek) guys.
NASA failed to predict the real splashdown risk.
