Of course, it's not even about the bike lanes. Depressing that Doug Ford, Prabmeet Sarkaria & PCs will play politics with our safety. I hope the approval ratings are worth the carnage that will ensue. 📷 Tom Flood

If you want to support literature in Australia but can’t buy books during this economic crisis, don’t forget libraries. Buying is always better for author and industry, but we also get paid when books are borrowed. (Last year I got enough library royalties for 4 mths rent 😮😭👏🏾)

Australians do not understand the etiquette of wait until dusk/dark to trick or treat. I don’t mind, but it’s so early some ppl won’t be home from work. 👻🎃

"When it comes to climate, the government seems to want praise for doing some right things while doing more wrong things." @pollyjhemming hit the nail on the head at #climateintegrity Summit 2024. The climate crisis is an integrity crisis #auspol

I’m not gonna amplify the silly clip of a woman who wants to be a trad wife and feed chickens. Just to point out (again) that feminism isn’t about a binary of women being at home or working. It’s about EVERYONE having the CHOICE to do EITHER.

My dogs have always been fine with loud noises (thunder etc) but the trembling distressed dogs cowering in shower stalls in my social media feeds around Guy Fawkes in the UK make me hate fireworks so much. Why does it go on for days before and after Nov 5?

Hemorrhoids, hernias, urinary/fecal incontinence, varicose veins are a small sample of issues that can follow pregnancy. As someone who had 3 uncomplicated deliveries & has still needed multiple surgical interventions as a result-pregnancy is NOT a benign process.

A child was killed and multiple others injured by school pickup parent driver doing a u turn in Australia this week. School pickup lines are policy failures.

LOL- I’ve had these conversations. Drivers have made the roads so unsafe that anyone who dares to cycle anywhere is “hardcore”.

Abortion not “settled law” in 🇨🇦 (right now it’s simply an absence of laws criminalising it)& is constantly at risk from the next conscience vote in Parliament. Thinking it settled is dangerous. It’s also mostly inaccessible in many parts ie Catholic hospitals, rural areas.

We need to have a serious talk about the reality of being a young MD. What we need to understand is the #healthcare #workforce crisis is linked to decades of preventable & compounded professional pain. The young MDs see it, and are done w/ it. 1/11 🧵

Close passing a cyclist is both obnoxious and illegal, doing so when you gain no extra time is worse, doing both with your kid in the front seat (who you should be setting a good example for) should be grounds to lose your driving license.

If they build it, I will use it. Courtesy of the current 3 +hours each way by train we usually drive to Sydney. Because as a time pressured working parent I can’t make the economics/scheduling work esp once there’s more than 2 of us travelling.

OHIP is demanding that Kingston doctor DrElaineMa pay back $600,000 for taking operating #COVID19 #vaccination clinics at the height of the pandemic -- because shots were not administered in her office, by MichelleDoreyForestell kingstonist.com/news/local-doc… via Kingstonist Michelle Cohen, MD

Same to Australia.

It’s absolutely that.

When I teach this I now bring up gendered / intersectional aspects such as role incredulity and status levelling. learners appreciate it being named, even if no solutions yet. #SurgicalEducation Lesley Barron MD, MPhil, FRACS Arghavan Salles, MD, PhD

Think I’m going to head to where the skies are blue….
