A few winters ago, I fell on black ice and got a concussion. It took me over a year and a half to recover. So I am all in on fall prevention.

There are some really good tips on this page. If you're an older adult, be sure to check it out. If you love some older adults, tell them about these tips.
Did you know that November is Fall Prevention Month?

Falls can have serious consequences for people of all ages. We all have a role to play in preventing falls.

The alarming thing to me is: How bad must it REALLY be for this measured, stately man to forego being eloquent, to stop softening his language, to speak so candidly and bluntly? Wake up America!! #Resist

🚨When you feel you and your family require housing on a military base - to be “safe,” you are the problem. When these people are members of the president’s senior admin/advisory staff, they are (collectively) our problem. They have declared themselves enemies of the people. 1/2

What a fantastic response to the 🍊💩. No delirium induced ranting or raving. Let him go off on his tangents while the rest of us get on with the business of building our economies without the US. #tariffs
Carney: "We can't control the trade policy of the US. We recognize it has fundamentally changed from the policy in the 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, & it's a situation where US has tariffs against every trading partner... what we we can control is developing new partnerships, including w/econ giants of Asia"
Yes it's true and it's Conservative Party Ontario Premier Doug Ford's fault. He ran an ad featuring Ronald Reagan's (verified true) comments on tariffs. It begs the question as to just what his motivation was for running the ad. I tend to agree with Angry's assessment. F**ks over Canada though.
