Cannot stress enough that you can just do stuff. You don't need permission. You can just do stuff because it needs to be done by someone.

Not going back to Spotify bc the only reason they aren’t running ICE ads is because the campaign ended. Meaning if the government did another campaign, Spotify has no issue putting the ads back on. Continue cancel Spotify.

Reminders, as public health officials warn of a very bad flu season:
🧵
* Washing hands is not a strategy for a respiratory virus. N95s, ventilation, air filtration -- especially in hospitals.
* We should have been cleaning indoor air with the same effort we put into cleaning drinking water.

Great reminder of why masks are so important. Protect others and yourself, because you can’t always know you’re infected. 😷
#Covid I attended a meeting where Canadian stats show on average we have each had Covid roughly 3.65 times! And 1 in 81 have it!
It's not gone & the cases of Long Covid with its terrible effects are growing! You can develop it without even knowing you had the "simple" Covid 1st!
