“We are in another wave of COVID. It’s important to note that in the US vaccines have been available for a month and we won’t be getting access to vaccines in Alberta for another 2 wks … and we’re doing little aside from vaccination.” calgaryherald.com/news/doctors...

Doctors, nurses could be left out of Alberta COVID and flu vaccination campaign

While Alberta doctors and nurse practitioners await further news, pharmacies have begun receiving COVID-19 and flu vaccines for the season.

I am home from TIGHR’s triennial conference. Imagine spending 4 days with 300+ fibre artists who all want to be friends & share knowledge. So inspired, need to sleep for a week. Niagara Falls is as amazing and tacky as you’ve heard in ways you haven’t imagined. Selfie with my soulmate at the Tunnel:

A middle-aged white couple stand on the platform at the end of the Niagara Falls Power Plant’s tunnel, where water once drained into the river after plunging through the hydroelectric power generating turbines near the water’s surface. A tourist boat (the Hornblower) can be seen approaching Horseshoe Falls (a high cliff completely covered in cascading water) in the background. Mist rises from the waterfall into a blue sky. This photo sounds like a white noise generator, but much louder - I bet the Thundering Ones don’t so much talk as shout at each other.

REMINDER: We can't assume events speak for themselves. We need to “narrate change” and help people understand what is actually happening to our planet. Attribution studies aren’t going to out-compete racist conspiracy narratives on their own. #ClimateSky#GreenSkygrist.org/article/fact...

Alex Jones and Marjorie Taylor Greene helped stir up a toxic stew of conspiracy theories.

Bluesky is very rapidly becoming a viable platform for disaster response info, with far less insane conspiracy bullshit. I desperately want this to continue.

By any democratic standard this pattern of purging votes should be considered out and out election rigging.
