Don’t compromise your beliefs and health to be accepted by someone who’s uncomfortable with you masking. 😷 They’re showing you they’ll also be uncomfortable with your future disability. You’ll still end up rejected when sick and dependent on people who’ve shown you they’re already not there for you.

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

I actually haven't gone bowling in St Thomas. Used to bowl in Aylmer at Cys a few decades ago. We took my granddaughter bowling in Ottawa on Easter weekend & we all had to laugh at how sore we were the following few days!

Lying to minimizing
relatives about what you're doing this weekend to stay healthy is top tier self care when honesty isn't working & they just keep disrespecting your POV. Give them your absence & yourself some peace of mind. Maybe they'll eventually figure it out. Maybe they won't. 🤷‍♀️

Canadians should be just as concerned as Americans. Remember this quote from PM P. E. Trudeau, "Living next to you is in some ways like sleeping with an elephant. No matter how friendly and even-tempered is the beast, if I can call it that, one is affected by every twitch and grunt."

Sometimes we need a moment, but if you tune out completely, they win. Fascism doesn’t need your support, just your silence.

They told you that covid infection would not harm children, and now long covid is the *most common chronic illness in children*.
